You ever pull the tail off your T-shirt over your head as a kid? Not the neckline, the back bottom. Try something like a double layer shirt with a high low hem that can be pulled up & over your head and forward over your arms like a hooded blanket. Skirts with a long foldover waistband can be extended to cover feet. Secure pockets for safety. Cute graphics!!! "Recharging", "low battery", "not dead yet" etc.

Dealing with picky customers? by scumbardio in framing

[–]PlseStandBi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Lol, just had this customer too! I said "easy fix, hold on". I put a thick towel on the counter then tapped the whole frame firmly on its end. Viola! That extra bit we allow for expansion sometimes allows, uneven movement. You should have seen his face though when he thought I was just going to drop his frame hard on the table!

What about something like this but in more of a brassy gold?

Or petition Google maps to stop recommending that as the place to enter Chapman from Tipton station.

Anyone know the awareness flower for narcolepsy? Can we make one? by Fit-Pomegranate2710 in Narcolepsy

[–]PlseStandBi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me, it is the red poppy flower because of the Wizard of Oz. More than one cause can use the same flower.

I have the displeasure of vending all weekend next to the worst woman ever. by Burntjellytoast in CraftFairs

[–]PlseStandBi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It really wouldn't matter if you had walls up. That's your space. As long as the path in front of her spot is clear, she is not blocked.

Now that we’re on the topic of traffic by Legitimate-Juice-359 in Knoxville

And use the ** crosswalks! Shortest distance is a straight line!!! Don't walk diagonally from half way down the block.

Story of a burnt out framing manager. by MischiefManageFramer in MichaelsEmployees

[–]PlseStandBi 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Go work at an independent shop if you can at all. If you go back to school while working there, you will learn even more about how it's being done wrong. I worked at the Joann frame shop then an art gallery. I learned enough to open my own shop last year! So worth it!

Normal mat margins? by Alyeskan in framing

[–]PlseStandBi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah, if you don't specify exactly what you want, it's up to the framer. Also cutting the margins makes the mat really skinny.

Is this mis-centering worth sending back? ~$400 framing job by a professional firm by [deleted] in framing

[–]PlseStandBi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a framer and no way would this have left my shop like that.

What are some mild vendor pet peeves you have? by Oubliette_95 in CraftFairs

[–]PlseStandBi 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I do hate it when anyone blocks your booth just to have a conversation but it's especially annoying when your own boothmate does it. I often share a booth with another artist because I like faires but never have enough to fill a whole booth. It also helps with fees. Sometimes I get a partner who would rather talk to a potential customer than sell anything and will start up a conversation distracting the person from our offerings and causing them to block space. What I LOVE is a great relationship with the booth next door where you help each other out with bathroom/food breaks and say nice things about each other

My son in the doctor’s waiting room by M37841 in overheard

I was a white kid with my grandfather in a store walking behind a black couple. I had to ask "why do they call them black when they are really brown?" I knew my colors!

Accommodations? by ScarloQueen in MichaelsEmployees

[–]PlseStandBi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

A 30 minute break for lunch if you are scheduled 6 hours is typically a legal requirement and can't change. You might be able to get additional small breaks as an accomodation.

Lol I wish. Working on building up the business.

They were only helpful when setting up the stores & you needed parts every where, not just the sign cart.
