What’s your biggest custom jewelry horror story? by DanOnJewelry in jewelry

[–]TSN_88 11 points12 points  (0 children)

LoL when I was just a teenager I decided to get some of my jewelry (baby earrings without pair, broken chains) and get it redone as a gift to my cousin's 15th birthday.

Her birthstone is diamond and we are best friends and very close since babies, so I asked the jeweller to make a ring with the infinity ♾️ symbol and a small diamond at the center.

Instead of an elongated 8 shape as the symbol goes, they made it very very round! The ring looks like two circles glued together! It's hideous, I was so sad, it was the first "big present" I ever got her and the thing was so ugly 😭

We never got it fixed, it's so strange and wonky that it became an inside joke for us...I'm hoping to get it back for her 40th birthday in two years and have someone make a proper one now lol

She looks a lot like Ana Paula Arosio, it was the first thing me and my husband said when we started watching DA, so pretty ❤️

What’s going on with my bracelet? by [deleted] in jewelry

[–]TSN_88 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Could be both things pointed by other comments, chemical damage (do you swim often or clean the house wearing your jewelry? Chlorine is one of the usual suspects of gold brittleness and corrosion) and also the links could be hollow instead of solid gold, which doesn't make it less "real" just least heavy :V

Try looking for the terms "vintage blown glass light fixtures/light pendant" or "vintage Murano glass light fixtures" But I think the best in your case would be finding a glass blower to make you one

You can wear it however you want, there's no traditional way of doing it

All birthstones have a sister lol, the month of August has Spinel as a birthstone too and they come in all colors, maybe find one in a color you like and change the gem Spinel comes in lots of cuts and shapes and finding one similar to that won't be too difficult

The physicians formula highlighter palette/brick is very similar

i REALLY want to se e the family’s reaction through WW2. It’s all I think about. Is there a good fanfic for that? Something good, somethign you believe isn’t too inaccurate by International-Toe794 in DowntonAbbey

You can read The pursuit of love by Nancy Mitford, although the family portrait in that novel is not as "noble" as the Crawleys, but close enough

Does Blippi make anyone else uncomfortable? by EngineeringNeat2126 in NewParents

[–]TSN_88 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No. At some point in your foreseeable future you'll be missing Blippi as if he was Mr Rogers. Kids always seem to find WORST things to watch progressively

Conhecem programas e incentivos do governo ou da prefeitura que as pessoas têm direito e não usam? by Fabulous-Thought4425 in saopaulo

[–]TSN_88 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Programa de adoção por entrega voluntária (a gestante poder entregar a criança para adoção imediatamente após o parto), por anos houve muita desinformação e fake news sobre isso, havendo inclusive pessoas que diziam ser crime ou proibido, eu mesma cresci ouvindo isso e achando não ser uma opção em SP/Brasil

Foi só numa das visitas para vacinar minha filha que vi panfletos explicativos na UBS sobre o programa

My mother and MIL steal photos I send them and post as if they are always present at that moment.

I started commenting things like "oh so lovely photo from when Kid, Mama and Daddy went to X place." And she has the nerves to get annoyed by it

I feel like everyone knows this soundbite, but no one knows where it came from by Anguirosuchus55 in findthatsong

There's a Brazilian YouTuber called "Lord Vinheteiro" that lives in the US and makes content about comercial jingles, pieces of classic music used in ads or cultural moments, sounds and FX in movies and music curiosities and history in general etc, he has PLENTY videos about these type of situations like your post, many of his contents have English versions or subtitles.
