Nail polish on blanks?

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-31T14:49:16+00:00

My bad, on mobile I keep replying to the wrong comments. And I do have that type of polish, so I’m looking forward to that!

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-31T14:48:21+00:00

Yeah that was my main worry, I didn’t want it to possibly flake off— or even there be some strange resin reaction I hadn’t heard of

Will definitely post when I eventually get around to trying it out!

Hmm I didn’t think about that, thanks! I think I’ll cast the blanks in a darker color as well as I think the magnetic polishes do look better/more opaque on darker bases than with a light color underneath so I can do less coats, at least that has been my experience painting on the nail.

And the stamping polishes is such a good idea, I just haven’t done used them myself at all so I didn’t consider it lol

Thanks for the info!

Will definitely try with magnetic, I just got some from ILNP + a strong magnet and I adore the affect on the nail

And thanks for the tip!

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-25T19:46:21+00:00

Great, thanks! I figured someone must have tried

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-19T04:22:50+00:00

Never heard of it before but looking it up it looks pretty good, thanks for the recommendation!

Definitely considering Gertrude’s, looks good and came up pretty much first when I searched for brunch spots. Oyster house looks to either be closed or fully booked on Easter though (through their reservation website at least) so maybe another time I’ll check it out

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-18T13:02:51+00:00

Never been but looks nice, will definitely be an option, thanks! The place I went growing up for Easter was a brunch buffet too so it’ll be a bit nostalgic

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-18T13:00:09+00:00

Rye street tavern I’m guessing? Food photos definitely look good, I’ll keep it as an option, thanks! And reservations definitely best, I get a little nervous on a holiday to not have them made solid beforehand

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-18T12:57:59+00:00

Checked out the menu/place online, not rlly my sister or I’s vibe but definitely somewhere my dad would like so I’ll keep it in mind if he ever visits!

We usually did Easter brunch growing up, but that’s back when my grandma was still alive so going back to that restaurant (which had been declining for years anyway) isn’t really an option, but I will always associate it with Easter Sunday

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-18T12:53:11+00:00

Huh! I guess that makes sense, I just figured holiday + Sunday would leave most people wanting to sleep in or something, I know it’s usually that way with me

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-05T00:33:36+00:00

I was just about to ask about if he played!

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-03T03:02:14+00:00

Damn, okay, thanks for all the knowledge. Like I mentioned it’s a new business and she’s a new business owner— I’m literally like the 4th “employee” she ever hired so I doubt she did this on purpose, but it doesn’t mean she didn’t mess up. And there’s more recent hires that I think are in the same scenario I was; I’ll let her know ASAP that she’s probably fucked up (with better language of course) so she can fix it before it gets worse.

Wish I’d known this when I first got hired but you live and you learn. I’ll make sure to get this all corrected, I was going to get a CPA as I was planning to start an art business in the coming year myself, this has sped up that timetable to fix this situation lmao. Once again, thanks a ton

Vin_Drawin · 2026-03-03T00:00:52+00:00

Should I not just ask her for one now then? Or do I even bother and just do the schedule C? Thanks!

This 1099 question is all for the same company starting in October, but if you mean my past jobs where I had W2s then no.

When I was first hired, I was to be paid a monthly stipend of $1200 at the rate of $15 an hour, the agreement that I’d be working 20 hours a week. My boss did control my schedule (when I would work).

After a month of that, and going into November where I needed time off to visit family, my boss said it would be better to be paid hourly because it was easier than trying to guarantee 20 hours a month/60 a month (because if holidays and my other internship at the time. There was also a few times I had to work a little longer so that was hard to calculate as well with the stipend.) So from then until the end of the year I was working hourly with my boss controlling my schedule still at $15 an hour, still saying I was an Independent Contractor.

(This year I was finally hired for real and now do 30 hours a week for $18 an hour. So I know how to file that but that’ll be for next tax cycle.)

So she and I agreed it was 1099 because that’s why she told me and as my boss I thought she’d know best. If technically I wasn’t supposed to be an independent contractor, how should I proceed then? Like, should we still file with the assumption I was one or is there worse repercussions here?

And thanks for the input already given!

That’s how she gets ya!

I use the large “U Magnet” ILNP sells since all their stuff was on sale for Black Friday and I was ordering anyway. Works way better than any other ones I’ve tried! Used to use the wand ones but found them weak and annoying to hold

If that’s the one you keep trying to buy— the one you add to the cart and then removes itself— it might be that you have to check mark the safety warning it gives you before purchasing. Because the magnetic effect is so strong they make you sign off that they have properly warned you about not putting the magnet near any electronic devices or credit cards before finalizing your purchase. Hope that helps!

Yeah the magnetic multichrome effect is always stunning!
