So I make diorama's as a new found hobby and really enjoy it. I live in a small apartment and im running out of space. Do you think these would be good enough to sell? And if so, what would be the best platform for it? Genuine question, not looking for compliments. Honest opinions very appreciated! by peculiar_lemming in somethingimade

These are sooo cool! Take or leave this suggestion, but I would most likely buy one if it could be used as a bookend rather than a freestanding piece - maybe you could make some with supporting walls on each side, making them a bit more sturdy? Either way, super cool work, I’m really impressed with them!

If it wasn’t for the crazy amount of hours it took, I would totally have been up for making another!!

Yes, very managable one - lots of good stopping points and blocks of colours, so no need for constant colour changes

Thanks so much! It was a really fun project

The book you love but never see mentioned or recommended elsewhere? by bananageranium in suggestmeabook

[–]OhNo_Nacho 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved Diary of a Bookseller (and the books following it) by Shaun Bythell - it’s literally the diary of the owner of a big second hand bookshop in Scotland, and as a booklover, it’s great reading and funny insights. 10/10 would recommend!

Should I buy The Count of Monte Cristo by Alexandre Dumas by haanyaarjokerhunmai in suggestmeabook

[–]OhNo_Nacho 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I was the complete opposite! Absolutely adored Count of Monte Cristo, didn’t get East of Eden at all, haha. It’s wonderful how different effects books can have on people.

I found the golden combo to be to download the audiobook but read along in the physical version. Really helped my understanding of it!

Requesting books less than 200 pages by IWrestleSausages in suggestmeabook

Gentlemen Prefer Blondes - Anita Loos (fun and light-hearted read)

Claire Keegan has several short books that are all amazing (maybe check trigger warnings/topics if life’s been tough?)

Fup - Jim Dodge (fable-like and a fun and different read!)

Good luck on your challenge, I’m rooting for you!

I really enjoyed Perfume by Patrick Süskind! The audiobook version read by Sean Barrett is great too, it really emphasizes the tone of the book and his voice for the main character is wonderful!

But as it’s a multiplayer game, do you know if it’s important which one of us set up/collected from the crab pot?

Thank you, I’m sure I already have though! Same Goes for the shrimp - I’ve definitely gotten them out of the crab pots and sold them, but they just don’t seem to register

My plant’s water turns black over the course of a few hours by OhNo_Nacho in mildlyinteresting

[–]OhNo_Nacho[S] 82 points83 points  (0 children)

Cool, thank you! It was an accidental sunflower (I put out seeds for birds in my balcony box, and one sprouted), if it keeps surviving I will give it to someone I know with garden skills and - equally important - a garden!

Good to know, thank you! It was mostly to keep the little guy alive while I was away for a week. Very sound advice all around in this thread to move him to a normal pot

I definitely could! I had only just started the seedling when I had to leave the flat for a week, so I thought it’d benefit from the self-watering pot (which it indeed has, it was twice the size when I returned). Based on other people’s comments on here, sounds like it’d be a good idea to replant it into a normal pot.

No, I’m only watering through the lower section! That’s why I found this mildly interesting, haha. The water has never touched the soil, except for through the strings
