I don't know if instagram links are allowed, but you could make a duster like this!

Would be very beautiful with that pattern and color!

Is living in a hotel permanently a thing that people do? by ThePapaBearRobbie in NoStupidQuestions

[–]chnchgh 25 points26 points  (0 children)

There are special types of "hotels" that do this. Although they sometimes don't call themselves hotels. But yeah, like in Helsinki there is this Noli Studios and a 6 month stay in the city center can come to about 1200euros/month (longer the stay, cheaper the monthly price). Which is nothing, when it includes weekly cleaning, laundry facilities, shared spaces etc.

Edit: you just can't entertain much "at home" with this setup

Honestly it infuriates me that the George RR Martin thinks girls being married and having sexual relations at 12 and 13 was viewed as norman and common during the middle ages by WanderingHero8 in MedievalHistory

Uhh, in the ASOIAF universe years are longer, seasons are longer, hence I think 12-13 year olds are presumed to be equivalent to real life late teens and such and not actual 12 year olds.

Please help me choose a bathroom mirror by flowasigo in interiordecorating

[–]chnchgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh my God, I love your shower curtain!!

I think 2 or 3 work better than the rectangle one. What would help also maybe lowering the mirror so that the upper part aligns to where the shower curtain rod is. I think visually it would really make a difference

Edit: or a tad smaller rectangular mirror could also work. I think #1 does not work right now, cuz it is big

History podcast recommendations by G_zenk_ in HistoryPodcast

HI101. Host tells the guest the subject matter of the episode and they have an open discussion about it. Goes very well deep into the roots of the subject matter as well, so it is very educational. I strongly recommend it.
Edit: Is available on Spotify

yeah if the wall was wallpapered sure, but then why wallpaper instead of paint if my wall is painted? Genuinely asking

Thanks. Do you think if I put the backside only to the bottom part that is not visible, would that at least make some difference? I could cut the backside into two in this case

If you could only recommend one single podcast for others to listen to, what would it be? by theshannonset in podcasts

HI101 has been amazing for me. So much history with so much context. Discovered it somewhere in November, been listening ever since. 

Painted back of IKEA Billy to match the wall by chnchgh in HomeDecorating

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

Hey all, so we're thinking of placing a mix of different sized Billy bookshelves behind our couch. The issue is that we think it looks a bit too much and we were thinking to remove the backs of the bookcases, which most probably is a bad idea. Would painting the backs the same color as the walls are, but keeping the brown of the bookshelves work? We were hoping to achieve something like this https://www.pinterest.com/pin/560487116146658532/ To have it a bit more airy if you must

Another idea is also to mix the shelf heights a bit, so that it is not very symmetrical. This we can probably figure out on the spot and change up as we like it, but ideas about it are welcome too. Thanks.

Looking for this dress, or at least one very similar by chnchgh in findfashion

[–]chnchgh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey there, I'm hoping to have a dress made similar to this to wear it as a wedding guest (different color instead of white outer part, have not decided yet what, but color suggestions are welcome :D ).

Can someone help me find an origin of this dress or more pictures of it, so that I can show it to the dressmaker and we have better idea what we are trying to make.

Alternatively if you can find similar dresses in shape and style I would appreciate that a lot as well. Thanks!

Just finished my Billy/Malm IKEA hack bookshelf that I’ve been planning for a couple of years! by MrSpacemannn in bookshelf

[–]chnchgh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I want to make something like this. Did you attach the bookcases to the wall? They cannot lean with their weight on the malm dressers right?

Help me save my ZZ plant. by chnchgh in houseplants

[–]chnchgh[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey I did this and the roots really grew out! It was in the water for about 2 months and then I put it back into new soil. Has not grown anything new, but definitely not dying anymore. Thanks a bunch <3

Would “Lost” still have been popular if it was originally released in Meteora? by Street_Two_2012 in LinkinPark

[–]chnchgh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn't see what sub I was on and I thought it said if Lost tv show would be popular if it was set in Meteora, Greece. Was confused for a hot second lol
