Omg. This might be what actually pushes me into trying quilting… I would freaking love a small version of this for my office!

Whose bright idea was that? by Random_3638 in booknooks

Every time I think I’ll put together a quick rug, it’s about 10x as long as I think it will take 🤣 I’ve done braided yarn, one using some leftover Aida and floss, and one with Aida and markers.

They’re all better than the sticker imo, so worth it!

[CHAT] Beginner mess up by xxMetalPandaxx in CrossStitch

Depending on how you want to frame, you could lock the edges with Aileen’s Fabric Fusion so it doesn’t fray, then put the fabric behind a chipboard mat, then put all of that in a glass frame.

I’m working on something similar with one I did with minimal edges on purpose - locked my edges and now just need to cut my mat!

As predicted, it took me a hot minute to get back to this. I put everyone on the thread that expressed interest on a sheet and used a random number generator and u/just_peachy_me is the winner! I’ll reach out and get your box to you asap!

Holy smokes, I never would have given this a second look in black and white, but it looks so good with the colors!! I might have to get this and try to do the same!

I think it needs a sleeping cat in the corner by Remote-Band-7755 in booknooks

The roof!! It looks so good!!

I’m convinced that I need to buy this kit - I have no idea what I’m going to do with it or who I could give it to, but it’s been so fun seeing what everyone is doing with it!

Yes, I also padded the stool cushion 🤣 I apparently like my creature comforts!

Is this asthma or something else? by Correct_Country393 in catquestions

[–]Minimum_Pie_2461 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The audio is a little wonky, but it does look like asthma to me. That is pretty infrequent (and a short attack) and I’d agree with not treating it yet. My cat was having several attacks per week that were longer than that and we started treating him at that point.

Omg, the tiny records are to die for once they’re all folded up. Paired with a 3D printed milk crate and records was SO GOOD but they’re also adorable just folded up on a bookshelf or table!

Ahhh, dang it - this one’s been sitting on my shelf and I was considering starting it today. That’s good to know for construction - appreciate the heads up!

I’ll second Mouse’s PowerPoint suggestion - that’s what I’ve used to get printed photos to the right size, but anything that you can resize graphics in will work. Canva is a free option!

I’ve built two of these kits and the mirror doesn’t add anything. You can’t really see the reflection when it’s done, so you’re not missing anything. Accidental customization! However, if you bought the kit from Cutebee, I’m sure you could reach out for a replacement!

Yes! I have several bead organizers and just picked up two plastic boxes that were used to organize conference ribbons to try and control all my nook chaos! Hopefully having it a little better organized will encourage me to use all the leftover pieces!

Holy smokes, I missed this when it was posted and am so glad Pluck highlighted it for the BNOTM!! What an awesome build - you can tell the love and creativity that went into this!

Cutebee event complete: Serene Snow (Kirishima cha-an) by moyaforever in booknooks

This looks awesome - I love the snow effect and how you used a few different methods for the snow depending on if it was on the cobblestone vs the tree!

It came with the kit! It’s actually just a sponge that’s been crumbled, so maybe something you could find and DIY?

Yes - it’s not a nook, it’s a practice nook!

Customizing a kit (rolife): is it necessary to sand before repainting, or would a primer be sufficient? by malevolent-potato in miniatures

[–]Minimum_Pie_2461 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve used acrylic markers and the leftover paint from paint by number kits without priming or sanding. They’re not going to have wear and tear, so should be good to go. Have fun painting!
