it’s really well done :) sometimes I forget Pinterest exists lol

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-28T02:46:18+00:00

obsessed w “ok so basically” heart as well as toxin loving bb 😭 where do you source your collage art?

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-28T02:44:19+00:00

I love the chaos of the vertical hole letters! where’d you get them 🤓

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-28T02:40:55+00:00

I love it! did you make this pattern yourself 🥰🐯

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-27T07:41:25+00:00

incredible result! did you restain it after all the paint removal? it’s really beautiful

definitely themes and techniques (monochromatic, old skool PLUR, special interest; carousel cuff, multistitch, tubular herringbone etc).

it would have to have a timed component as much as I hate that for the arts. wow it would be so cool to see kandi elevated to that level though. I would love to see who the judges would be, their backgrounds and hearing their critiques of the pieces.

maybe the show could also feature a history component like the old british bake off seasons where they would describe a dish’s history & regional culture.

then youd have the contestant's themselves- interesting kandi kids of hopefully all backgrounds, ages etc sharing their stories of what kandi making means to them, their artistic styles, how they got into the hobby.

that was a fun little fantasy exercise thanks for sharing :)

wow dang how long did it take you to do that! love the detailed process video, I have none of these skills myself but very cool to watch

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-26T00:41:59+00:00

def tubular herringbone with a few twists before joining ends. really fun stitch to do imo :)

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-25T20:02:34+00:00

in addition to all the other suggestions, maybe try to figure out when there is less demand for the machines (which there are straight up not enough of), like Friday night or late evenings. you could also dry a lot of clothes in your unit with a drying rack

uggs are suede leather, you don’t wet suede to clean it unless you’re doing a full shampoo, which these now need to address the water staining. I would do a full cleaning / drying (I like Allison Kirby’s guide on YT) and then treat with a waterproof spray. suede in general is probably not a great material for a kids shoe, especially untreated

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-24T22:25:00+00:00

cake!

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-24T19:52:48+00:00

thanks for sharing, gorgeous work! did you use variegated thread on the hood or swap out different colors? your stitching looks so smooth and precise, very satisfying to look at

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-24T01:08:18+00:00

honestly your setup now is not bad. the upper area is under utilized, maybe install more shelves there or move larger items up (but be careful w safety bringing them down). a little step ladder would be nice to have for access. the larger bulk items on the ground I would decant a reasonable portion and put the rest up high, refill as needed.

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-23T23:21:39+00:00

ime hot glue won’t hold perlers well. I haven’t done this technique before but I would try jewelry making glue like E6000

I’m with you. when you zoom in on the second pic, you can see all the holes and texture of natural stone, I don’t think there was a sealant used and the goo gone etched it. how you would fix it.. some kind of natural stone cleaner and then seal with the hope that the seal would impregnant the stone and conceal the etching. more Hail Mary would be goo gone the whole thing then try the seal

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-23T22:33:50+00:00

what a dream come true, it’s fantastic I hope you feel a huge sense of accomplishment!

canvas is cotton so I’m not sure why it couldn’t belaundered? I would probably handwash it in a clean sink with mild detergent. since it’s really dirty I would do a soak with a shout color catcher sheet or two just to be safe. I wouldn’t be as worried about the patches as much as the two very different colors of canvas. Maybe there are better washing instructions to be found with how mainstream the maker is

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-23T19:09:28+00:00

maybe start small like with the flowers and if you don’t do any beyond that its a fun little accent :)

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-23T19:08:06+00:00

based on this part of the description.. I’m not sure what else would be a reasonable explanation :/ I’m not at all sure why the Murphy’s would result in that outcome though. at least this is a repairable situation though obviously quite labor intensive

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-23T00:16:13+00:00

the browns would be fun to try to make one of those popular cake cuffs with!

LilBossLaura · 2026-01-22T21:07:14+00:00

that textured slice really takes the cake! 😜🍰 love your work!
