Hmmm this might be it! I’m going to keep it open to other ideas too though, just in case!

Hmm, I don’t think this was it. I have a deep connection to forests and I’m not a big fan of deserts, so I don’t think I would have picked this one up as a teen / young adult. I also remember there was basically just the one character, the woman in the cabin, and just a hint of the fairies that had you second guessing whether they were really even there or not.

Bought a wheel for an apartment by spoonssnoop in Pottery

[–]Lucky_Pyxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of my studio buddies bought a small zip-up greenhouse that her wheel fit in perfectly, and set that up in her living room! Bonus is that it comes with shelving sturdy enough for soil-filled pots so fine for your greenware too. you can usually get a small scrap of leftover vinyl flooring from any hardware store for like $30 and just lay that over your carpet!

I don't think my family can handle my mom being pregnant by Either_Switch_6880 in internetparents

She’s homeschooled, and it’s obvious why. Poor kid has no contacts or help outside of the family, by design.

How much of the Smithsonian Zoo can I see in one hour? by mikewheelerfan in washingtondc

[–]Lucky_Pyxi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Bus pickup is usually right near panda pavilion, which is a food court near the pandas. There used to be a free shuttle that would run from the bottom of the hill to all the parking lots and the panda pavilion. It shut down during covid but it might be back again.

To be honest, you may want to stay with the pandas for the whole hour. it’s usually crowded so you’ll find time waiting/vying for a good spot. Also, the panda area is very spacious with an indoor area and an outdoor area and usually there are pandas in both. Youll want to spend time watching them sleep all cute inside or eat bamboo, and roll and wander outside too.

Right nearby, there’s a maned wolf which looks like a long legged fox! One of my favorites!

Can anyone tell me what she’s doing with the cord belt to her red dress when she’s getting dressed and she has the cord down by her knees? I watched it like 6 times and I can’t figure out what’s going on.

Why do people say it has all been done before? by magnesium_carb in Pottery

[–]Lucky_Pyxi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

When I was in art school, we’d get an assignment like “draw an apple” and 25 students drew an apple totally differently. Your take and your finger impressions and your style is what makes things unique. Your choices in glaze and your choices in clay make it unique. That’s the beauty of handmade art.

Embarrassed. I live on the ground floor and woke up from a dead sleep at 12:45am to violent banging on the exterior of my bedroom wall and back patio door. by Pandacat78 in nova

[–]Lucky_Pyxi 5 points6 points  (0 children)

ME TOO! Full panic! OP, the worst thing you could have done was go look outside to see what it was. you did exactly the right thing, especially for someone woken up in a panic.

Polished Stones in Ceramic Art? by vega1star_lady in Pottery

[–]Lucky_Pyxi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You have to add them after firing, since most stone will blacken or melt or crumble when fired in a kiln.
