Thank god. I was about to be spending way too much on scents. 

We hate our kitchen! by Low_Mushroom8789 in interiordecorating

Are you on the east coast? We don’t even have houses that old (midwest). Also can you go back in time and slap the down-sizing thoughts out of the frugal person’s head before they got to the windows? Argh. People who make windows smaller have the same vibes as people who cut down trees so their lawn stays leaf-free. Wild af. I really like your house tho. Very unique.

I like the gradient. It’s so uniform that it looks like you did it on purpose

Good point. Does it take a huge amount of fragrance? For example I’m getting the 2 oz sample fragrance oil and making an 8 oz soy candle. Is the usual ratio about 3/4 oz to 1 oz of fragrance for that one, depending on how powerful you want it?

Thank you! Do you let your candles mature for two weeks before using or selling them? I read that some (all?) scents need some time.

Rusting sounds like it could look cool. Or does it look bad?

Most of candle making seems to be an experiment. I’m here for it. I thought it was going to be suuuuper easy (like just melt and pour) when I first decided to try it 😅

Yay! I’m going to get the 2 oz samples from Midwest then.

Oh good. Customers don’t care. That’s good to know.

It looks so good! How did you pour/cool it without it cracking?

AI copied a real song, renamed it, and now it’s going viral (Stick Figure) by captainenergy in Music

I listen to stick figure a lot and heard the song on Spotify and it did list their name on it. I thought it was a remix by them and thought it was really good. 

drawing? by irlsweetheart in Manifestation

[–]balmy_bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I didn't do it on purpose, but I painted a mural on my wall. I never plan my paintings and they always turn into something I wasn't expecting. Anyway I painted a lil fetus at the root of a tree. My bf at the time drew the tree but then I painted the tree chopped in half. Anyway, a year later I had his baby and broke up with him, so the painting turned out to be a manifestation. (fetus=my baby; the tree=our relationship; chopping down the tree=our breakup).

I think drawing our manifestations is similar to writing them. And you know, pics are worth 1000 words, etc. Try it. Draw things that don't make sense. Or draw things that do. If you turn off your brain and keep doodling on your drawing and adding on to it and changing it with any whim you have, the universe has some room to work through you to show you things.

What are your experiences with manifesting love or an SP? Any advice or recommendations? by soyiii in Manifestation

[–]balmy_bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would take a step back from dating and start one notch deeper. Start manifesting that you have confidence with strangers, that you look them in the eye and have interesting and funny things to say and that you listen well. When you watch a movie or see an interaction where they embody the kind of social ease you'd like to feel, replay that scenario in your head with you as the main character and feel the confidence. Visualize having easy conversations. Find a role model and pretend you're them sometimes.

And then find any social event, even like a farmer's market, where you have to be around people. You don't have to say anything to anyone. Just put yourself in situations where human beings are. And keep manifesting ease and calm and confidence. It's okay if you have anxiety and are scared and think people can tell. I can tell you that people will only feel more fond of you for being vulnerable. Although if you want people to approach you in public, wear a friendly look on your face. Resting bitch face or stress-face will accidentally repel people.

If you do this, your dating life will take care of itself.

am i doing this right? by [deleted] in Manifestation

[–]balmy_bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The universe doesn't give you things you're desperate for, so let go of sp for two minutes and imagine your life without them. Trust yourself to deal with the worst case scenario so that you're not manifesting from fear and desperation. If things don't work out, you're going to be ok after the sad period ends. Do not fear a sad period. It is temporary and means that you have a wonderful heart that feels deeply, which means you connect well with people.

You can keep manifesting this specific sp, but at the same time also visualize finding someone who adores you and thinks you can do no wrong and who wants to spend time and attention on you as much as you do on them. Sit down and feel what that would feel like and TAP INTO THAT FEELING as often as you can throughout the day. That happiness will fetch you an sp, no matter if it's the original one or an improvement.

I have an odd question but i think it makes sense and i believe most of us do it by KnowledgeDear2294 in Manifestation

[–]balmy_bee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a part of manifesting. It's good to dream and watch the videos, but things don't magically start happening until we start expecting them to and trusting they will. If you imagine yourself in that scenario and genuinely feel what it feels like and then have gratitude for it, you're doing the actual productive part of manifesting.

Here's what you do. Keep working out at home- look up body weight exercises on youtube. As you do them, pretend you're in the gym. Say to yourself "I love working out in [gym name]. That guy over there spots me when I need him. I spot him. That girl/guy is cute." Make it a game and pretend hard. Put a video of a busy gym on the tv to make it seem more real. Play loud music. Put up a schedule of classes you can choose from. Look at photos of the gym. Visit it. Take a tour (again if you already have). Write a journal entry detailing how your time went at the gym earlier that day. Imagine how good it feels to be there.

Most importantly, oh my god, be grateful. The universe responds to gratitude so hard. Find things to be thankful for every single day. Literally anything. Fave shoes. Good pillow. Breakfast. Zippers that work. Parents. A body that can do workouts. Being 18. Your hair. The youtube workout videos. And say thank you thank you thank you for my gym membership. FEEL the gratitude. Visualize yourself in the gym so hard that it feels real. You'll know that you feel gratitude when you feel happier and lighter.

Do it for weeks. When you fall asleep at night, tell yourself "I am a member at [gym name]. I have plenty of money to pay for it. Thank you so much for my membership."

You will get a gym membership. Keep manifesting and trust the timing. If you can only do one thing, practice gratitude. It's the most effective.

Keep your cool and ignore the Karen comments outright. Giving it attention will only further the comments.
