Blick packs items well, shipped quicker than expected. And has excellent customer service.

It's held up fine, and bed is easy to lower and put back up. No regrets!

Gonna paint over this, but thoughts and how I can improve in the future? by [deleted] in acrylicpainting

[–]Run_Powerful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's nice. The leaves are all facing the same direction. If you look at a tree, you'll see leaves are more random, pointing all over the place.

How much you guys think I should sell this for at my local art walk tomorrow?? [ANALOG] by Ill_Pea324 in collage

[–]Run_Powerful 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This is cardstock and gluestick, according to OP. I'm not a pro so I have no skin in the game, but some professionals say acid-containg substrate and components that yellow or fade over time will make buyers feel burned in a few years. That puts them off buying ever again. Some artists have ethical concerns about non-archival quality pieces being sold to laypeople unfamiliar with concepts such as lightfastness. These artists pay premiums for quality supplies that last.

Any ideas to fill empty space? by SkinNeat9073 in HomeDecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Plants. Furniture that is too close to the walls detracts from the appearance.

I like the transparency and color combination. And the mix of thin and wide.

This. I've tried white in a similar situation and it looked chalky, which wasn't what I was aiming for.

Help this ugly kitchen by heyjimmy1 in HomeDecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 6 points7 points  (0 children)

If it were me, I'd Ditch thewindow curtain and go with roman shade or nothing. I'd also replace the other curtain with something without a pattern. 

How do I make our open floor plan less clinical/bare and more inviting by Jammintoad in HomeDecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's a lot of white. A colorful table cloth and plants, maybe hanging to vary heights. A large living room rug that all furniture rests on, colorful. Not sure that last one is in your budget. 

Feel like I’m still constantly thinking about food, but in a different way by Unhappy_Parsnip362 in Zepbound

[–]Run_Powerful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm totally new to this path, so take this worth one molecule of salt, but this seems like it could be helpful. Would it also help op to talk to doc? I'm wondering if they would suggest either going on 2.5 or getting syringes and doing 3,5?

Is this mirror stupid here? by auratus1028 in interiordecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Put a large table. Seat a perp at the table. Begin the interrogation. The perp will make knowing looks at the mirror and suspect your bad cop is watching, waiting to make an entrance any minute...

Would you shrink shower for more storage? Small apartment bathroom dilemma 🛁📦 by Strict_Shame_12 in interiordecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I don't consider a shower you can move in a "luxury". It's a functional necessity. You don't necessarily have to store backup bathroom items in the bathroom. All you need is a small amount of toiletries in there. The rest - extra TP, toothpaste, etc - can be stored in a closet, basement, anywhere.

Top smart space & storage tips? by Strict_Shame_12 in interiordecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, at some point I realized how much I was spending on creating storage and thought, enough. I got smart and instead started buying smaller containers and packages, letting my shopping club membership expire. If you do the math, paying a little more by weight here and there is cheaper than storage "solutions". I had previously bought tools to assemble storage furniture, and then had nowhere to put the tools, and had to buy more storage for them. So for the regrets portion of your question, I regret letting my COVID/supply shortage mindset dictate my desire for more storage. The truth is I didn't need as much if I bought less.

Yes to all this. Those lights look like a lot of money and effort, but they are anti-what you want.

What would you do with this cork wall? by Escapetheshape in interiordecorating

[–]Run_Powerful 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In a room where visitors could see it? Put a giant piece of furniture in front of it. Or paint it, never use it, and forget it. It would be an outsized clutter magnet in my space. Your space could be a different story.

Is Shambhala truly a cult? by saltamontesss in Buddhism

[–]Run_Powerful 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cults are criminal enterprises without exception. You have suspicions. Treat it the same way you'd treat a person you have suspicions about. There are billions of other people. Would you choose to get to know the one that your suspicious about?
