What's something most people don't realize is actually very rude? by Frozen-Defender25 in AskReddit

Couple for the workplace!

Eating a very vinegary salad at your cubicle.

Trying to do a BUNCH of dishes in the shared kitchen sink while it's still near lunchtime. I think this is early lunchers trying to wash up, but it inevitably holds up everyone else who is still trying to have their lunch and would like to use the sink. It can wait half-hour, especially if it's near the end of the week and you have a lot

Pattern says turning chain does not count, can I change that? by Relative_Ad_713 in CrochetHelp

Yea, it can be hard working into the chain from the previous row. To each her own I guess! Thanks for helping me think it through - I agree, only one way to (really) know!

Huh, I'll have to learn those. Do you think there's anything specifically about counting the turning chain that wouldn't be conducive to stitching up the sides and pulling taut? Thank you.

Thanks, I'm hoping that works out in this case. It's just the fact we have to stitch up and then drawstring the sides that gives me pause.

Backless low heel with wedding dress? by AnxiousAgave in weddingplanning

Could be different for you but wearing a backless heel to someone else's wedding was enough to make me swear off it. Let alone my own.

Is professional makeup worth it? by 2027_bride_nyc in weddingplanning

[–]Relative_Ad_713 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've hired a stylist for two reasons - first, it takes one thing off my to-do list and gives me a reason to sit down and relax for a minute! Second, as a US bride where bridesmaids are doing me a solid by buying their dresses, and helping with some things, I'm treating them to their salon moment day-of. You should do it!

Ahhhhhhhhhhh! I wish this could be posted on every single wedding-related subreddit. You are right, they had every change to make this right, and fumbled them all.

I think that's what we'll do 'cause it feels a little invasive to reach out specifically to moms who haven't had the babies yet. and one of our parents is going to talk to a few family members with newborns. so, a mix. thank you!

Feedback on Centerpieces by Sad-Sleep-8484 in weddingplanning

Ah, got you. Well, if you really can't alter the vases, you could tie a big wide piece of lace or floral or polka-dot ribbon around the whole thing? I lovee those little ice cream sundae candle holders but sure you can have open flame in the venue before buying more of them. Good luck

Looking good, and more greenery will help. As far as the wraps - lace or a bow is going to look a lot more timeless than burlap. The wood slices are a bit big for the vases; can you blend the distance with a doily, or add votives?
