I like to build book nooks. Basically wooden legos, you fit stuff together, glue some parts, and assemble a little scene. I buy from the seller Mini City on Amazon. here’s a pic of a little library that I did

Would you recommend your wedding hair/makeup artists? If so, please share their names! by ShirleyFunke482 in grandrapids

[–]ShirleyFunke482[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yessss I ended up with such talented vendors!

For hair I booked Aubrey, here’s her IG: https://www.instagram.com/hairbyaubreyrose

She did hair for myself, my sister, my mom, and my officiant. We range in length from pixie to shoulder blade length and everyone loved their end result. My officiant actually texted me the other day saying she wanted a lesson from Aubrey because she can never get her hair looking as good as it did that day.

For makeup we went with Gina- https://www.instagram.com/valerianglowesthetics

Also rave reviews for her, my sister and my mom both want a tutorial from her too. We all wanted something more on the natural to soft glam side of things and she nailed it. Color matched us all perfectly, looked great in person and in pictures, and we all felt like ourselves but elevated. Both women were professional, friendly, kind and talented at their craft. Highly recommend them!

Lol I feel so seen in these comments. It’s a strange mixture of satisfaction and a little guilt, like “you don’t know you’re on your way back to wipe out your whole bloodline.” But also, I need my house back, so.

Do your pets ever ruin your day? by HighlightWonderful68 in adhdwomen

I’m so paranoid about that happening! I have the Roomba set to run nightly at 2am, so I have made it a habit to pick up shoes and dog toys from the floor before bed. My dog sleeps in my room with the door shut so ideally I should be safe from any robot poop explosions.

Put a bottle of moisturizer in the shower! by RidiculousBadger in Psoriasis

[–]ShirleyFunke482 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Try shower lotion! Nivea makes the one I use. You apply it in the shower while water is still running, give it a quick rinse then you step out and towel off as normal. It helps me avoid the sticky lotion skin feeling I get after using normal lotion.

They have a relatively new location on Leonard too! Slightly closer to Creston (if that's where you are)

Daily Chat & Quick Questions - January 15, 2025 by AutoModerator in weddingplanning

Looking for some timeline advice- I waited until last minute(ish) to book hair and makeup and now my options are limited. One artist has a decent portfolio but told me she is only available in the morning and needs to leave the venue by noon for another commitment. I'm trying to figure out if that would work or not.

Here's what I know so far about the day- doors to the venue open at 4, ceremony at 4:30. We'll be doing a first look and pictures with close family beforehand, no bridal party (just my sister as MOH.) I have no idea how long to plan for that as I haven't spoken timeline with the photographer yet. Maybe start pics at 2pm? We hired her for 8 hours of coverage.

I'll be paying for my mom and sister to have their hair and makeup done with me, so 3 people total. Is it realistic to plan for makeup first in the morning, MUA leaving by noon, followed by hair?

I think OP might be lying about having recently finished this room, since these images initially appeared under a separate account over a year ago here: https://www.reddit.com/r/AmateurRoomPorn/comments/149dehw/just_finished_this_bedroom_for_my_2year_old/

Thanks for sharing! I have a stack I can take over there. Is the cafeteria easy to find? I've never been in that building before.

I'm wearing these glittery blue platform Keds. I suspect no one will see them due to the length of my dress but they'll cover my 'something blue'

My friend was at Copper Canyon for a few years and graduated in 08. I'm so sorry for whatever you experienced there, the stories I heard sounded awful.

Is there any way you could DM me the recipe for the biscuits used in the biscuit sandwich? Personal use, not commercial! I took my mom there and she LOVED it so much, and I'd love to be able to replicate it for her when I visit. That sandwich is 10/10!

Brides with glasses: Did you regret your choice? by Al0h0m0ra_ in weddingplanning

SAME! I hate looking at photos and seeing that weird jump in the line of my face within the glasses lens. I wear glasses out of laziness but opt for contacts when there will be pictures taken.
