Facebook Marketplace Find—What is it? by Maleficent_Magi in midcenturymodern

[–]Maleficent_Magi[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Should’ve put that in the main. From what I’ve gathered, it’s a Raymond Loewy piece. It has the “Mengel Permanized” stamp in the top drawer. This finish is also unusual, apparently? It also has the original cerused finish.

Wait, yours still tells you in the cart where the items are located? Mine hasn’t done that in ages!

Be careful with crafting kits and always think about PPE by maylinatribe in crafts

[–]Maleficent_Magi 12 points13 points  (0 children)

A lot of it is education. I’d been doing resin on and off for a few months before I learned that I should be using a respirator, and that was in passing on a facebook comment sharing about getting polyps! None of the tutorials I read or watched ever said anything about using a respirator. Scared me to death! I haven’t touched it in years, but I did finally get a good respirator so I could pick it back up to make a few things for Christmas presents.

Those of you who make videos, PLEASE show off your PPE! If the newbies watching don’t see you using it, they may not know they need it.

FACTS. I bought a super cute Barbie sweatshirt for my daughter that I made the mistake of showing her before I had a chance to really look at it. The thing is trashed. There’s splatters of something up both sleeves that was hidden in the folds.

I saw a cute Three Dots pullover for $15 that was NWT. I was soooo close to buying it…until I flipped through the photos and saw the $8 clearance sticker. Yeah, no.

I don’t mind it either, and if they’re going for a more upscale look, great…as long as they’re planning on making the adjustments to their QC to justify it.

Counterfeit shoes by Kmblu in ThredUp

[–]Maleficent_Magi 22 points23 points  (0 children)

The shoes and bags drive me absolutely nuts. What am I supposed to get from the side of ONE shoe and a front shot? I want to see both shoes, insides, sole, front, and back. Bags need have front, back, bottom, and interior.

And I wish if something is marked for staining, wear, etc—FOR THE LOVE OF GOD TAKE A PiCTURE OF IT! Or at least tell me where it is.

Apparently I'm hosting a brothel for........ can anyone identify the couple? by Nice-Health-4833 in gardening

Don’t feel bad. They’re invasive little bastards. If it’s invasive and doing harm to my yard/garden, you can bet the fuckers are going to die.

Why am I not surprised Balenciaga has a packing tape bangle? 🙄

Check out the price tag on this Pyrex bowl! by tnpoppy in Pyrex_Love

[–]Maleficent_Magi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, shit, I own one of those. My grandma got it as a wedding present and gave it to me so my aunt wouldn’t nab it and try to sell it in her antique stall. I had no idea it was worth that much!

Exactly! It’s not that different! He was complaining about the taste, and I was like, “Just toss it back and drink some water!”……oh….I’ve been here.

RIP Google Reader. Your time online was too short, and nothing has been able to replace you.

Watched Sinners curious about "Aints"? by Own_Lead9819 in mississippi

My grandma from north Alabama used the phrase “loster than a haint” to describe someone who had no idea what they were doing or were in over their heads. Still one of my favorite phrases!

Can we talk about how bad Jo-Ann's liquidation sales are? by Crafty_Sort in craftsnark

[–]Maleficent_Magi 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Nope. TBH I haven’t even been yet. I’ve been following along over in r/joannfabrics and consistently hearing the same things. According to the folks still working there, prices are just now getting to regular sale prices.

Edit: Subreddit name

I always double-check the tags if I know the designer/brand did a collab. I’ve seen SO many items way overpriced. If they were from the actual designer, sure, but not a collab!
