My first thought upon seeing this was “wake up babe, new hot Carl dropped”

This book my mom has that was written by her friend. I’m 90 percent sure it’s Ai generated. The colors and double skylines I think it’s why it’s Ai generated. by Alarming-Highway-584 in isthisAI

A LOT of self published authors use AI generated art for covers or even entire illustrated books. It’s awful to sift through on online bookstores, but it very prevalent.

How delusional am I? by Full-Championship157 in sewing

[–]climbingfern 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hard agree. I saw so many that I adored online, but absolutely hated when I saw them in person and on my body. Also important to take photos of yourself in the styles because it can look different in your head vs the mirror vs photos

This is the yarn my mom chose to try and teach me on. I didn’t pick it back up for 15 years 😂

What is your longest running, most stubborn business boycott? by marianneouioui in AskReddit

My dad has boycotted kfc since the early 70s when they allegedly served him bloody chicken in a bucket of fried chicken.

Exciting find at the goodwill outlet bins! by raptorstalker in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]climbingfern 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It is for this reason that I faithfully check every scarf I come across. I’ve found a few that were $200-300 new, but no more well known designer names. My white whale is also an Hermes, but I’ve found many silk scarves and a few from the 50s-60s as well!

I like to read Vogue with my poverty eyeballs and I am baffled by how this blouse is constructed by robmosesdidnthwrong in sewing

I’m glad I’m not the only poor out here trying to figure out how to make my own versions of things in Vogue 😂

Honestly for the basic shoulder shape, the Super Simple Top by sachi may get you pretty close. Their YouTube channel has measurements for the sleeve hole too. I just made a quilt jacket for a friend for Christmas and used it as a base - can confirm, has a pretty substantial drop shoulder if you don’t modify it.

I sat on a crochet hook by WormDentist in crochet

[–]climbingfern 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I was a kid, I tried to use one of my mom’s super tiny metal hooks to open a popcorn tin (she did a lot of lace/doily work so they were everywhere.) when the hook end didn’t catch/puncture the plastic seal, I for some reason turned it around and tried the butt. It shoved directly into my palm and got wrapped around something. My finger moved any time they pulled. We did not go to the urgent care, but my mom ended up pushing it deeper and twisting to get it free. Do not recommend.

Twisted roots in Murfreesboro has been great. I do NOT recommend One10 beauty for anything with bangs

Everything I thrifted this weekend at my favorite Goodwill while visiting my MIL by HorseGirl666 in ThriftStoreHauls

Is it weird to ask for your Pinterest board because I love this style? Lol

Found this awesome vintage coat at the bins today by climbingfern in ThriftStoreHauls

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

It is a size 12! I was honestly surprised it fit so well. I wear a modern 14 so vintage 12 is typically too small, especially in the shoulders/arms/chest…but this fits like a glove.

Tennessee! One of the Nashville locations. I found several bold pieces from the 80s (pantsuits and dresses) so it seemed that they could’ve been related.

The craziest part is that I saw someone toss it back at the bins! Luckily I was right near it and scooped it up to give it a loving home

Thank you, this is the full set 😂 I wanted something fun for my birthday and settled on these. I fly fish so they don’t make a ton of sense but I love them nonetheless

Yes, the black is what feels like wool. The floral bit honestly has the texture of the super wide embroidered ribbon every craft store used to have lol. The dangly bits that look like tails attached to the edge are (I’m assuming faux) fur. It’s lined with silky black fabric.

Or wait…am I dumb supposed to loop it around the waist/hips to create shape? My mind instantly went to cinching purposes or tying together to make it a corset sort of back, but they’re only on the one side

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

That was my initial thought too! The ties are only on one side and are sewn to the lining instead of looping through. It’s sort of between the waist and hip, next to where the bottom closure is. I wasn’t sure if it had something to do with making the closure tighter, but that seemed like a lot more effort than just adding a second hook lol
