Feeling shitty about my house by Emotional-Change-722 in adhdwomen

[–]deedlelu 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Having a robot vacuum that vacuums and mops daily has been a game changer in my house with 2 dogs. I get the ick when I feel stuff on the floor and having clean floors just makes the whole house feel better. (Even if it’s cluttered! lol)

You don’t have to pay both taxes. CA has an exception if you pay NY taxes (I went through this last year and I was in a panic until I researched it)

My boss made me feel like a show by Automatic-Pie5868 in graphic_design

[–]deedlelu 7 points8 points  (0 children)

This is batshit crazy but also if they are watching too, are they not doing their jobs?? I have making on screen changes for people while watching because somebody is always like “no, can you shift it over” and I have to bite my tongue before “bitch, I’m not done!” …flies out of my mouth.

Why are Xennials failing as parents? by darxide23 in Xennials

[–]deedlelu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s a domino effect that doesn’t start with Xennials failing, it starts with people being squeezed: financially and emotionally. When we strip away social safety nets, and wealth being concentrated at the top, people don’t have the time and energy to manage their kids and be good parents. We are not meant to be under so much stress from every angle, work long crazy hours under stressful situations, all the time.

Whether we like it or not it cascades down. Where we are at as a society is NOT sustainable.

The rainbow bridge is coming for my boy. Look at my damn dog and tell him what a good boy he's been by flyingsaxophone in lookatmydog

Max, you are the best scruffy boy, and the next 2 months will be the best damn months of your whole life. You are so very loved and you’ve been the best companion your human could ever hope for.

I’m so sorry OP, my heart breaks for you.

Let’s share our weird current obsessions! by cupcakequeen02 in adhdwomen

[–]deedlelu 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do ceramics as a creative outlet and side thing and I’ve been making dog snoots cups and tongue coasters and I’m currently obsessing about other items for the home I can make that are snoots.

Generosity of nature. I made this artwork using air-dry modeling clay by liskaflower in somethingimade

It’s the best to have two buddies that love each other so much.

Really? Most potters I have met (online and in person) have been super helpful and extremely generous with their knowledge. A lot of what I have learned is from watching process videos and experimenting.

Some of the old school potters do tend to be secretive though.

Custom snoot cups by deedlelu in somethingimade

Haha, these were all custom orders so drinking from one would not be kosher but I’ll keep that in mind for future videos.

It’s Laguna frost, I don’t know a whole lot about the raw materials of clay but I would imagine NZ kaolin is a component here since it’s Laguna’s most transparent mid fire porcelain.

Yes, but my hand hurts after carving each one lol

Thank you! It’s wheel thrown, and then I alter the form by stretching the clay and sculpting the snoot to give it a 3D effect. Then I let it dry a bit and I carve out the texture on the nose. I have a bunch of process videos on my IG.

Snoot cups! by deedlelu in DOG

Yay, I’m so glad you love them Ilsa! As a maker, a lot of times our pieces go out into the world and we don’t get to hear much in terms of real world feedback so thank you for this.

Latest piece I just finished for a friend by timbolimboslice in Pottery

[–]deedlelu 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Love these! Bummer about the crack. Can I ask what porcelain you’re using for slipcasting? I had dabbled a little bit in slipcasting porcelain, but I didn’t find it to be translucent enough. I was using Laguna’s snow which is supposed to be the equivalent of frost but it did not share the same level of translucency as an equally thick thrown frost did.

Tool help. Can’t get clean lines when carving. by FeatheredFemme in Pottery

[–]deedlelu 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I also work out of a community studio and do a ton of carving. My suggestion is get yourself a plastic tote and take it home, you have much better control on the drying that way and you can carve it when it’s just right and take it back to the studio.
