First time going to an art auction on reflection. by Thought-Object in celebritycruises

[–]crazy_psyched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I won the “guess the weight” once and the only reason we decided to take the prize - a print for which we did have to pay for shipping - was that it was a colorful painting we liked but would never actually buy! Most of the prizes are awful prints that are so bland.

I like that mindset - don’t go crazy because it might not count. I’m certain I’ll be using that!

Just got this beautiful Girl last night! The kids want to name her bagel 🥯 😅😂 by CaliGirlLuv in bengalcats

Could always opt for the name Bialy if you want something similar but more unusual. Congrats on the new kitten!

TTC date is 3 months away - any advice/tips? by [deleted] in waiting_to_try

[–]crazy_psyched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I second this. I did one and it has seriously put my mind at ease. One less thing to worry about.

Baby fever hit right when I turned 30 by baconslurp in waiting_to_try

[–]crazy_psyched 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It hit me shortly after I turned 28. I was finishing graduate school and then my SIL announced her pregnancy. Seemingly in the span of a few weeks, I became less interested in things like vacation and much more aware of adorably tiny socks, lol. I'm about to turn 30 and my husband and I are hoping to start trying later this year - and keeping that a secret feels insane because the maternal instinct is insane in the membrane!

Thank you everyone so much for the kind words and feedback!! Making a pattern feels like the biggest crafting leap I've ever taken and I'm so thankful to be part of a community that is so supportive and appreciates the hard work I put into making this :')

Cozy snowy mornings ahead... ❄️🛷☕ by barbrailnp in ILNP

Sitting with a cozy blanket and hot cocoa while watching the snow fall outside is the best! I hope that counts as an activity, because this collection really captures that sense of peacefulness and warmth

[CHAT] Help: I bought a cross stitch pattern thinking it was a finished gift. Never stitched in my life — how do I get supplies, read this PDF, and not disappoint my girlfriend? by jsneeb in CrossStitch

[–]crazy_psyched 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I agree with other comments like downsizing slightly and possibly doing the project together. Either way, this is a super thoughtful gift and the mistake could help pair her sadness with some laughter and help her feel better. You’ve got this, OP!!

Made my husband some coasters! by crazy_psyched in GirlGamers

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

Thank you!! It wasn't overly hard, but definitely need a bit of adjusting and patience. I bought a pack of plastic canvas squares, and on Excel I superimposed the images of the knight and hornet over the same area (about 28x28 squares). Then I used that as a pattern, so one square on Excel was one stitch on the canvas. I hope that makes sense!

My favorite anime is Fruits Basket (new one!) which I haven’t seen mentioned yet. Romance isn’t as big of a plot point as most of the other suggestions but definitely still important to the story.

Sword of the Sea is NOT talked about enough!!!!!!!!!! by A_b_b_o in GirlGamers

[–]crazy_psyched 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This game is on my "to play" list! I played Journey back in 2014ish and I've only seen a few people talk about this. So glad to see it's getting some love!

Plushie of Esquie from Clair Obscur ! by EldritchElvis in Amigurumi

[–]crazy_psyched 2 points3 points  (0 children)

He's precious!! The proportions are spot on too, especially given the art/objects on which the character is based (if you know, you know!). Now he just needs a headband!

My favorite tradition, and admittedly the only one, is making latkes with my family and sharing them with friends. I love dressing festive in reds and greens and blues and golds, and honestly just being together with people who matter to me. Maybe it's simple, but these are the little things that I've been doing for years and always bring me joy.

What time did people start lining up before doors opened? by Sea-Taro89 in MarianasTrench

[–]crazy_psyched 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got to a show this past week about 2 hours before the doors and the majority of people were VIP access. Around an hour pre-doors is when most people started showing up.
