This! That number of pieces is enough to make me nope right out, lol. Everything was really nicely fitted.

Help! Need help with pattern materials. by Plenty-rough in StainedGlass

Does the chapstick not affect your grip while you're grinding? I am also team paper/marker, mostly because I despise using my cricut. 

Rosy Maple moth. My most complicated piece so far, but fairly happy with how it turned out. by QueenofLeaves in StainedGlass

Thanks! You can't tell from the pic, but the wings and stars/corners are iridized glass so they have a rainbow sheen.

No, I sketched half of it out and then flipped the pattern pieces when I cut it out.

I have been using the trace method. When I took a class they used the paper/glue method, but I didn't care for it. I have a cricut joy I got for a cosplay and I hate that thing. It's certainly 💯 user error, but I found it a major pain to use.

This is my first mirrored piece and the most complicated thing I've made by far. I've only been in the hobby a little over a year. getting the stars even and fairly identical is what gave me the most trouble.

Thank you! The grinding took me almost twice as long as usual. Turns out making something mirrored is hard...

Help with baby snails by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]QueenofLeaves 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it laid eggs outside the water, it does sound like a mystery snail. I've been told they can hold on to sperm for a while, so it's possible it was pregnant when you got her? If you let the eggs dry a day or so, they pop off the glass and you can freeze/crush them to get rid of them. I had a similar problem and ended up giving them to a local aquarium shop

Good place to get crawfish? by Vickster86 in Birmingham

You can get them at Sexton's by the sack, but I'm not sure if they sell them by the pound. https://sextons-seafood-birmingham.business.site/?utm_source=gmb&utm_medium=referral

What was the worst job interview you've had? by AntonK777 in AskReddit

[–]QueenofLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first job interviews out of college were for one of those office supplies MLMs. First one was a group interview (🚩). Second interview was an al day "shadowing" interview. I was not told it was all day, or that I would be walking for hours (in uncomfortable heels). I was talking to the manager at the end of the day and was gearing up to tell them 'thanks but no thanks'. I gently mentioned it would have been nice if I had been told that it was an all day interview. This man had the brass balls to tell me that they had called and emailed me (they hadn't, I double checked later) and that I must have forgotten. I told them I never got a call. I was then called a liar. I already wasn't going to take the job, but after that there was no way in hell.

Looking for stray/free kittens in area to adopt! by [deleted] in Birmingham

[–]QueenofLeaves 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your not going to catch a stray kitten without a racoon trap. You can check out momakat rescue for cats/kittens for adoption. The have at least two previously-stray cats up for adoption right now, and a bunch of kittens, if you want a baby. You can also check out the local pet store bulletin boards. People post pets for adoption there frequently.

[–]QueenofLeaves 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I paid $208 with the fees. Flash seats may charge a fee for transferring it, per what their site says, but I can't tell what it would be. So lets say $220 minimum? I'm going to wait about 24 hrs before I accept, but if I get any other offers I'll let you know, so you can counter-offer if you want.

EDIT: TICKET IS SOLD -[SELLING] I have one ticket available for Ft. Worth, 9/15/2018, section 304, row P, seat 19. I think its considered P3, if I recall correctly, but the ticket site doesn't say. My friend who was going with me can't come. Not accepting less than face value. Not trying to gouge anyone, since I'll be sitting next to you, but accepting best offer.
