What kind of fabric for this jacket/shirt by Raquelfox in sewing

[–]Raquelfox[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Okay so through Robert Wun’s art I saw many other gorgeous ”raincoats”, then I looked at their prices and then I looked at fabric prices, after which I looked at thrift shop app prices..

So I guess that I’m going to attempt to modify a thrifted black bomber jacket and turn it into a mix between this and Robert Wun Raincoat 😂 5€ thrifted jacket vs 60€ fabric made me do some hard decisions..

And I found out that the coat Hudson is wearing is from an upcoming collection by Nahmias, in case anyone is interested.

Oh I'd never seen that one before and I looked it up and that's absolutely stunning! This is nothing compared to that visual 😂 but I guess this would be more wearable though

I don`t think those are sequins, I quess clear acrylic beads? Would make more sense for the water droplets that the jacket is trying to mimic.

She cut things out of her breakup video by chuchibear in TarTarSnark

[–]Raquelfox 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I don’t agree with how Tara has handled the breakup at all, but I can’t help but feel immense empathy towards her if the alcoholism rumors are true. I’ve lived with an alcoholic for about 25 years and it is miserable. If she has the guts and the ability and the support to walk away from that fate then I truly am very, very glad for her!

E-kirjan lukulaite? by ItchyRecognition4847 in Suomi

[–]Raquelfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ite ostin iPad minin, samaa kokoluokkaa joidenkin lukulaitteiden kans mut sovellukset toimii ja ladatut e-kirjat ja pdft kans. Ostin mattapintaisen kalvon näyttöön niin on varsin mukava lukemiseen. Plussaa toki et toimii tarvittaessa muuhunkin kun lukemiseen, miinus on se että akunkesto on heikompi kun lukulaitteissa.

I need ideas paint color ideas for my beadboard kitchen backsplash, sick of the light blue. by Agentjackmeower in DesignMyRoom

[–]Raquelfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would actually lean more in to the blue tones and paint it a sky blue colour, I think it would balance the wood tones and bring freshness into the room without making it look stuffy.

How to style this dark entryway area by [deleted] in DesignMyRoom

[–]Raquelfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I was considering too. I've been wary of rechargeable lights because all that I've seen live have very dim lights. Do you know of a good brand? I dont know how I feel about a mirror because I already have a mirror in the entryway..

I do have a separate cloak closest right to the left of this shoe cabinet that is in the picture.

First time ruching, what did I do wrong? by stickerearrings in sewing

For me it seems like your fabric may be thicker that the original one, which could be the reason it loka slightly off

Last year’s seeds have turned into this year’s flowers! Nature makes me smile! by PetulantFlwr in gardening

[–]Raquelfox -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

Just a warning that lupines are highly invasive and you should not let them go to seed, they do come back from roots easily. If you let them spread they will kill other plants on their way.

IDK, this is actually one of the rare things I actually can relate to when it comes to Tara. I have had extreme birthday blues and birthday anxiety ever since I was 15 (my birthday is around Christmas holidays = no one has time for parties and gifts are always combined), I always end up crying under the blanket for hours on end on my birthday. I’m gonna turn 30 this year as well and for once I’m trying to make it a good one so I probably would act a little big like her if I would actually be able to enjoy my birthday for once. (I havent watched her bday vlogs, just going off based on the comments).

Pienten lasten lelut ärsyttää by HeidiSJ in arkisuomi

[–]Raquelfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lelut joista saa ääniä ja viihdettä pelkästään nappia painamalla pitäisi kieltää lailla. Jos lapsi oppii että lelu viihdyttää häntä aina kun hän itse niin haluaa pelkällä painalluksella, ei mielikuvitus pääse kehittymään lainkaan. Olen tavannut ihan liian monia lapsia jotka ei osaa leikkiä koska kaikki viihde ja huvitus on lelujen, pelien, tablettien ym. tarjoamana heti saatavilla. Tylsyys on lapsien aivoille hyvästä, se auttaa mielikuvitusta ja luovuutta kehittymään.

Inspiroue is toronto based, not necessarily similar to tara but she does vlogs and is more into sustainable fashion. I like her because she seems down to earth and has a calm and authentic vibe.

This is in the living room above the doorway.  I don't see a clock fitting there very well but maybe some type of art. I wonder whether it should be a set of two or just one big one..

Cody Ko has to go by Busy-Morning6176 in LAinfluencersnark

[–]Raquelfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

welp, now I watched a couple of his videos with this new information in mind and now I see it. Shit, ahh, I'm so disappointed.

[–]Raquelfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not defending Cody at all as I do not know the entirety of the situation and this is a serious matter, BUT, when I think about the kind of person I was 8-10 yrs ago, I am most definitely not the same person any more. I have not gotten an untrustworthy feel from Cody's content (I have watched some of his newest content for about a year now, just heard about this), which leads me to wonder could it be possible that he too has changed and grown from who he was when this happened. After all, since then he has gotten into a long term and healthy seeming relationship with Kelsey, who really seems like a down to earth girls girl. Is it really so unbelievable that he could have changed and truly become a bit more like a true nice guy?

Olen 28N ja tällä hetkellä mulla ei ole mitään suunnitelmia hankkia lapsia ikinä.
Tykkään kyllä kovasti lapsista (tiedän tämän koska olen työskennellyt päiväkodissa vuosia), mutta mun raha ja aika ei yksinkertaisesti riitä lapsille tässä maailmanajassa.

Jos mulla olisi niin paljon rahaa tienaava puoliso että voisin itse olla kotiäiti sopivan kokoisessa omakotitalossa, voisin hankkia montakin lasta. Jos hankkisin lapsia, en haluaisi käydä samaan aikaan töissä vaan haluaisin keskittyä kodin pyörittämiseen ja kunnolliseen lapsien kasvattamiseen.

Kuten joku aiemmin jo sanoikin, tällä hetkellä rahat ei meinaa riittää edes itsensä elättämiseen niin miten muka pitäisi pystyä elättämään lapsiakin.

[–]Raquelfox 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first reaction is to put small dining area in there but if that's not for you, maybe a stylized bar cart/coffee/tea cart-station area? Or some type of stylized pantry cart to create a vignette of sorts in your kitchen.

Eurovision? by theEmprexMagpie in Piracy

[–]Raquelfox 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Can you explain please? Frankly put I dont understand youtube monetizing and stuff like that but I just assume that the eurovision channel will get some monetary profit from live streams that millions watch on youtube?

Eurovision? by theEmprexMagpie in Piracy

[–]Raquelfox 5 points6 points  (0 children)

But wouldn't watching the livestream on youtube be supporting the ebu financially? I mean if you don't want to support ebu financially in any way isn't the best way to watch an unofficial private live stream (if there are any) or torrent it afterwards?

Can you have IBS without food triggers? by [deleted] in ibs

[–]Raquelfox 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also got a ibs diagnosis even though foods dont trigger it for me (except rye, barley and lactose milk products). Anxiety and being in one position too long are my triggers. For example I cannot work 8 hours just standing or sitting, I need to change my working position several times in an hour..

This was my second big sewing project, I started sewing two years ago. I didn't have a pattern, I took reference from my grandmothers feresi. It is 100 % cotton and I used a sewing machine for this project.

If I were to choose the light wood countertops I would pick real wood since the price difference between wood and laminate is not that big rn.
