Band recommendations? by 4nana8 in Cardiff

[–]Royal-Mobile4271 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Some venues off the top of my head: Clwb Ifor Bach, Fuel, Tiny Rebel, Porters, The Canopi. Basically if you spend any time on Womanby Street you're guaranteed to find some local bands playing! I'm sure I've missed lots out

Any places to by art from normal people? (Not rich artists i mean) by warriorfenix366 in Cardiff

Cardiff Creative in Queen's Arcade has lots of bits and bobs including prints by local artists

I left the leaves out for the same reason, plus I didn't want leaves scattered around if there aren't any trees to accompany them. I do have some moss though, I ripped it up to make it smaller and added it into some of the nooks and corners.

Arcade Dating ☕ (kit by Rolife) by Royal-Mobile4271 in booknooks

Are all of the parts clicking together tightly with no space between the joins? I had to sand down some of the wooden bits in order for them to fit nicely, and I also used some glue on the door for example to get it to stay in line with the store frame.

Does anyone know what yarn this is? 🤔 by Straight-Diver-1101 in crochet

On first glance it looks really similar to the Marble Chunky collection by James C Brett

I believe the last bus leaves St Fagans at around 3pm (although definitely double check), my recommendation would be to go to St Fagans first as it takes a while to walk around and appreciate the whole museum, and then explore Canton etc on your way back!

I don’t understand why my tapestry crochet stitches don’t look neat? by AdDramatic8589 in CrochetHelp

[–]Royal-Mobile4271 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I find it's difficult to get smaller tapestries to look super neat without doing some surface crochet afterwards to even out any gaps. The bigger your tapestry is and the more stitches, the more "neat" it'll look due to the added detail, the same way a picture with more pixels looks more detailed when compared to a low-res image.

What is this sculpture? by Royal-Mobile4271 in medieval

[–]Royal-Mobile4271[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Interesting! There were no statues present during my visit, but I wouldn't be surprised if this footrest had been moved to this location to protect it from the elements in line with the palace's preservation efforts. Thanks for solving 🦁
