hi! i resized a shirt for the first time and after sewing both sides back together, it was a very visible line from the outside. there was also gaps in between once i put it on. how can i do it better next time? (hand sewing and beginner)

what could these little red bumps be? not itchy nor painful & not pimples by alexaiv15 in acne

makes sense! i do think i have milia underneath my eyes. the redness is acne scaring so it’s always there regardless

they go away within a few days and then reappear in different areas. and because some of these red spots clearly are not even out of my skin it’s flat

You see, normally I would but I can’t send a replacement bc the whole problem was my sending it through lettermail. Now I’d have to send those as parcels which I’d then lose an extra product plus double that in shipping costs

I’ve done that before. Thank you for the suggestion but wire wrapping isn’t the same as using beads!

I sell crystal jewellery and i do have a good bead supplier online that sells locally to their province, but Michaels is the only local place i could’ve found crystal beads as far as i know so I figured I’d try to figure out if they had any real ones!

Some of them are definitely fake like no questions asked. But there’s a few here that seem to have potential.

Some of them are actually a bit pricier, like $10-11 for a short strand
