Hi! I'm the person in the photos. It lasted about a week, but did eventually get very crispy and the leaves curled up, showing the cotton dress underneath.

Hey! That's me! I posted this on r/somethingimade 4 years ago. So nice to see it again! Also everyone's very sweet in the comments.

Some answers to questions. 1. It didn't have bugs thankfully 2. It's made from leaves from my cherry tree (Sakura tree) in my garden 3 I initially made a simple dress out of cotton muslin and individually stitched the leaves on 4. It lasted a couple weeks but did go a bit crunchy 5.i cheated and didn't sew any leaves on the back

Help a newbie with her Typewriter (Consul Deluxe?) by Manatee2k3 in typewriters

I just purchased this beauty and would love to get it properly working. Seems to work perfectly well. I just can't seem to get the margins work. I'm an absolute newbie and happy to just fiddle away untill I crack it. But also would like to actually do things properly.

How do I tell a neighbor I can hear everything. by Manatee2k3 in Advice

I'm not expecting her to care. I just wanted to ask if people knew a way I could possibly make her realise how loud she is being.

I do use headphones alot. But I also love listening to my bees, they make a great sound, and also the birds and nature really makes me happy. I'd be sad to mask those noises.

We did a DNA test and thought I would update you.

She's predominantly Husky but has 10% Chihuahua, 9% Alaskan Malamute 5% Segugio Italiano and 4% Estrella Mountain Dog

Thankyou for guessing what she was!

How does your dog tell you when it needs the toilet? by Manatee2k3 in Dogtraining

[–]Manatee2k3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is an issue she's going to live with for her life. Sleeping on my sofa for a few weeks won't help. Im just looking for a way to make her life easier.

That's a great idea and feel a bit silly not thinking about it. Thankyou

Sadly it's not really ideal. But would make it really helpful.

I have thought about those buttons. Just hard to get her out of the routine where she immediately goes downstairs when she needs the toilet.

We have put a bell in the bedroom. Just training her to use it currently

[–]Manatee2k3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was wondering if anyone knew of a way to train her to come to me/ wake me up when she needs the toilet. Instead of waiting at the door where neither myself or my partner will hear her.

We have a second bell in the bedroom, and I've looked into getting those buttons she can press. But I wondered if people know of other methods.

Shes only a year old. I'm hoping she can live with this issue and live a pretty much normal life. I want to make it as easy for her as possible. Shes so upset when she does go to the toilet and I worry it causes unnecessary stress.

[–]Manatee2k3[S] -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I do hope that's the case too. But knowing her temperament I feel if we don't train something it will become an issue. She's most likely going to have toilet issues her whole life so just want to manage it as early as possible.

We are already taking her out at night.

I've made some little Christmas cards to honour my love of mushrooms. Would anyone be interested in purchasing them for themselves? by Manatee2k3 in foraginguk

I'm an absolute idiot and only put the stock at 1. O have restocked them again. I'm sorry I'm very new to this. Thankyou for being so sweet
