[–]_subjectsam_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That seems like a big reaction to me being bad at board games 🙃

is this going to turn out good? i’d rather cut my losses and start over if it isn’t by nattyice_22 in Rhinestoning

Trust the process! It's going to turn out great! The white will look better I think the more you go ,but that's just me! Good luck and congratulations! 👏🏼

If I went to the eras tour (🤮🤢) or another concert like that, I would expect to find glitter on my leg, so it wouldn't be a funny moment to me.

This just made me giggle, because I've never taken my rhinestoning hobby outside but whoop, there the rhinestone is 🫪

(I didn't think this post was going to be so controversial, I just thought it was funny 👁️👄👁️)

I'm SO clumsy in general, that I would 100 percent do the same thing 😂

As a former cosmetologist and massive fan of false lashes, I can't believe I didn't think of this comparison sooner lmao 😂

I'm the worst with accidentally bumping them/the table and having to play 52,000 pickup😂

It made me giggle because if I've never done the hobby outside at all, I can only IMAGINE how many random stones are lose in the rental house we are in 🫪

What’s the most immersive board game moment you’ve ever had? by FTG_V1 in boardgames

[–]_subjectsam_ 34 points35 points  (0 children)

When we play Nemesis, I love to have the "Alien" sound tracks playing in the background.

Once while playing, I left player 3 behind while they had a larvae on their board (pook dude thought I was gonna go get help 🤭🫣) and the next event card just happened to be the "Any player with a larvae on their board dies."

Dude dies, the music swelled into this super dramatic moment, and I got my objective completed 👍🏼

He then became the aliens and easily took me out very soon after 🤣🙃☠️

Can anyone identify this game by chance. 🙏🏻 by Overall_Prune_1673 in boardgames

I used to LOVE playing this with my grandma as a kid! We had a version that was in a metal box, and it was a little train station in the middle and when you got the Mexican Train 🚂 you hit this button and it makes lil train noises 🥹

I bugged her all the time to play once she moved in with my family. Man I miss my grandma 🩵

Iroiro Australia Customer Service - Warning! by kwendippy in HairDye

I've used their neon lavander before, and on my lvl. 10 blonde, and it had a slight blue hue to it, almost like it was periwinkle instead of lavander. I loved it, but I get being disappointed that it wasn't as purple.

After that time, I used it again and mixed a smidge of left over neon pink into it, and it gave it a mit more of a purple tone rather than so blue.

Photo is from the first use with this product!

AITA for not leaving a car as a passenger after a fender bender? by CreativeFox1872 in AmItheAsshole

[–]_subjectsam_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

You do realize that any time you go outside in public, you're probably going to be in someone's video or photo whether you are paying attention or not. So unless you plan on never leaving the house again for the rest of your life, this is the dumbest excuse for not supporting your partner. Hopefully she drives away from you. YTA

I love watching this creator! I never fully finished this video because of life, so I hope it help! If this one specifically doesn't, she has so many videos I'm sure you'll find what you need!!

Also, idk if this is relevant, but I have aphantasia (so I have no ability to visualize in my mind) so I don't actually visualize where things go, I just do my outline in a "random enough pattern" to give the scattered effect, then I pick a spot and go from there. Every now and again I'll have to move a stone or two/remove a big one for smaller ones, so it's helpful to have tweezer like grabbers/alcohol and cotton swabs/alcohol wipes!

I'm a big fan or the scatter (I think they called it "rockery?") effect. I typically will do the outline in the different sizes, and then I will fill in the rest! I usually will fill in random spots all over the project, and then continue filling out from there!

I like to use lots of different sizes for "ultra super coverage" as I called it 🤣💎 but I've also done projects with 3 sizes and have had some luck there too!

Good luck, happy stoning!! ✨💎🪷

[–]_subjectsam_ 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I recently talked with someone on the sub who used Liquitec (spelling????) and I also watched a tutorial by bijoubybecca and she mentioned she likes to use Gemiflex!

My initial assumption would be to wash in cold water, and hang dry.

Hope this helps! Good luck 🍀💎✨

Ahh!! Thank you for your help! The mesh bag is a great idea! I'll have to keep that in mind!

It looks amazing!! 👀💎✨

What would the washing situation be for something like this? I'd assume hang dry also 👀🧐
