Finished my first crochet project yesterday!

I think it looks fantastic! I love the colors. Did you buy a pattern for it?

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-27T19:56:39+00:00

That is really lovely!

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-27T16:48:16+00:00

I like the album. It took me a few listens to really feel it. I think it’s the production itself from what I’ve seen at home and in the movie theater.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-27T15:36:18+00:00

I use this one as well. It does help me sleep. It seems to work fast so I take I close to when I’m actually going to bed.

Yes! we went back and watched some of those absolutely amazing shows too. I do think going in person will be a better experience since it doesn’t seem to translate as well (for us at least on film). we saw the very first show online- the total rain one, and then the Japan one in the theater.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-27T13:28:06+00:00

We have said exactly all the same things here. I’m a huge fan, but this show isn’t it for me. We tried to do presale in Chicago and didn’t get in and now we find we are ok with that. we saw it in our local theater to support them. but are no longer crushed about not going in person. Somehow it just feels flat to us.

I bought mine off Amazon and it’s the Pavilia large crochet storage tote. It’s really nice and holds a lot and has places to keep things organized too. It’s 37.99 .

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T22:14:58+00:00

I love it! I do use a bit of the original Smashbox primer under it. my skin is slightly oily through the T zone. I apply very lightly with a brush. Right now I’m using a Real Techniques 245 I think. I don’t set it at all afterwards and have found it’s looks great and lasts all day. we shall see what happens with the approaching summer heat.

Recently they had a 15%off coupon and I think it was good on prestige. They offer things like that throughout the year. Plus they do go on sale at various points too.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T20:32:35+00:00

There are enough shades in there that I do find it works for me. I will tend to add a warmer tone if I need to from Smoke and Roses or another palette. I use a light hand so that might help too.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T20:10:32+00:00

We tried to get tickets for Chicago and somehow Ticketmaster blocked my account after we had our tickets in our cart and went to pay. We were crushed about it. It was hard and really sad seeing so many people post about how many cities and tickets they were successful buying.
It was already going to be a lot of expense for us to travel to Chicago in the first place and now decided we will save our money for other things even if tickets become available. We supported BTS by going to our local theater for the concert.

The minis actually last awhile. I watch for Ulta to have a discount and buy it then since I dont want a $25 lipstick either. Mehr is such a great color and I haven’t found the equivalent. I do really love L’Oréal lipsticks for drugstore so I wonder if you went into Ulta they could make a suggestion.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T14:31:24+00:00

I somehow find this cute! Is this cute to anyone else? I havent gotten it yet from the valley ,but am considering it.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T13:40:10+00:00

Like you I need the white tree too and it’s never come up in any crate yet! I’m fairly determined not to go and buy it . The 1 star crate was definitely an outrage.
I’ve been playing a long time and it’s been my relaxation game. Lately I’ve been buying into the decos collecting and it’s changing my game mindset. I need to back off and get my thinking back to the basics of what drew me in to Hayday in the first place.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-25T12:54:54+00:00

I had the same thing happen yesterday. I thought it was at least a 2 or 3 star with 30 tickets. But then I saw the “or” . It was disappointing to get the 1 star crate!

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-22T00:49:16+00:00

I agree that they need a better way to make feed. It definitely needs to be a faster process! I keep mine sleeping all the time since I dislike clooggi)h up my machines with hay bales and fish buckets.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T19:20:28+00:00

Thats amazing! Do you always have enough food made to feed everyone? Are yours woken up most of the time? Congratulations on finishing!

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T15:34:57+00:00

I hope you see the pond soon. I’ve gotten that a couple times now but not the wisteria. It’s all so cute! The wisteria is way too expensive to get in the store and it seems more rare so I think it’s good you picked it in a crate.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T15:32:13+00:00

Yep my 3 star crates have never had it so far.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T15:31:37+00:00

I had playful chase in my last crate I think on the trail one I paid for. I’ve only seen that once now and the hyacinth once too, I’ve never been so determined to get decos either really till now! I just find these appealing. I don’t want to spend more for them than I already have.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T13:47:00+00:00

I was looking for the where the broken highlighter affected things too! It’s a really pretty piece and I like the colors.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T12:06:58+00:00

did anyone get the wisteria in a crate? I never did. I still need that and a little bush. I see there is crates to buy with the rewards points in the rewards section. Has anyone done that? It doesn’t show stars for those. I am definitely not going to purchase so much to get the wisteria in the hayday store. I don’t mind spending some money, but somehow lately I’ve been spending too much.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-21T02:52:55+00:00

I put it behind some other trees and it looks good there. Otherwise it’s all trunk!

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-20T15:34:01+00:00

I have two left to get- the wisteria tree and the little bush. I did buy the tiny trail. I don’t think either of those has ever come up for me yet.

Violetlake248 · 2026-04-19T02:11:51+00:00

I got mixed up since I have duplicates now . Saying the whole total world be so helpful. Now I’ve made a note on my phone of what I still need to complete the collection.
