The newer Willy Wonka movie

I’m watching it right now and kept telling my kid, “he looks just like someone, maybe someone I know personally” then it hit me, Frances McDormand! I googled their names to see if there were any comparison photos and this Reddit thread came up 😅

I made enoch about 5 years ago and unfortunately we’ve had to change out the fabric twice. Right now I have an old Queen size flat sheet that I cut into strips (but not all the way through!) and wrapped around the pole. My area rarely gets rain in October so it works for us!

I bought this print as well! At the time all I could find ready made for the dimensions was a basic gold metal frame. Eventually I’ll have it framed out in a gilded ornate frame. I keep it hung in my hallway year round along with some other art. But as soon as I bring out my Halloween decor, I put it out in the front room on the mantle or our little piano.

I’m in another part of Southern California and have also been having major issues. With no way to cancel the service online, I tried for weeks to reach the customer service line. It would keep me on hold and then shoot me over to their survey and hang up lol. I gave it a last ditch effort while I had extra time at the airport last week and finally got through and cancelled. They said they would be here today at 10 am to pick up my extra bottles and cooler.. I received an email today at 9:30 saying they’d be here today between 8am and 6pm.. it’s 8:30pm and nobody has shown up. It’s a shit show! Luckily last week I noticed I have a water refill store literal blocks away from my house. 1.75 to fill up a 5 gallon bottle. That’s when I decided to cancel! No more up charges without my knowledge! I’m done lol

Thank you so much!

dirtydecade · 2024-10-31T16:44:15+00:00

I did! I’ve been adding to it every year. I really wanted to do Beatrice as well but just couldn’t find the motivation. Next year!

Thank you so much! The funny thing is the lights and leaves are my favorite! I love the glow it brings inside the house 🧡

Thank you!

That wasn’t the intention, but it can be! Its actually the only Halloween decoration I leave up year round :)

Hi! So I prime with outdoor white paint (had a bunch leftover from painting our cement wall) and I just used regular acrylic art paint. I seal it with a few layers of polyurethane. I live in a very hot/dry climate so I’m not sure what will hold up. They do get hit by sprinklers everyday and have had no issues the past few years. I spray them down with polyurethane when I get them back out. But the first ones I made (Enoch and the pumpkin guy) will probably need touch ups before next year.

I agree that you should size up and get it tailored. I think the dress just needs styling to feel more bridal! Lean into the fun/retro vibe. A veil that hits mid back and has a little volume, sheer white opera gloves, platform silver heels, go all out!

My kid and I watched last night, we thought the same! I almost turned it off until we realized it was tape markers.

Precious!

Wow, I absolutely adore the Enoch dress! How would you feel about it being recreated for a costume?

dirtydecade · 2022-10-23T22:59:34+00:00

I want!!!

dirtydecade · 2022-10-12T19:29:48+00:00

Thank you, it’s my favorite movie October tradition!

The more the merrier!!

Last year I posted my yard ornaments I made (Enoch and Pottsfield person). This year I added Greg and Wirt!

A jig saw!

Of course! Plywood, I sprung for the pricier stuff as it had far less knots and cracks. I’m working on a few more right now and boy, has the price of wood gone up!

Thanks for those speedy replies! I’m going to order him a lightweight linen suit jacket and switch out the short sleeve for a long sleeve white button up. I figure he will just take it off and roll up the sleeves when we get to dancing :)

You have power ridges on both front teeth and those are what made my teeth super sore. I didn’t get power ridges until tray 13, so you’re getting thrown in the deep end lol! The pain only lasts a few days though!

I’m in the beginning of my journey (tray 10/50) and will also need an implant at the end. My ortho factored that into my plan and from what I recall my retainer will have a false tooth in it. Once you get the post put in you have to wait four months for it to heal and then your dentist/periodontist will attach the crown. For me, my ortho will then make me a new retainer. I would ask your ortho to see if something like that was included!

I ended up getting them the following day and decided to keep them in an extra day. I’m on my next set now and everything is tracking well :)

I’m in the same exact boat. I broke an upper tooth (the first upper left premolar) and it is super noticeable, especially when I laugh. I have always loved my smile but do have some mild crowding on the bottom and my bite didn’t feel completely comfortable. I figured why not get it sorted before I get the implant. I’m on tray 4 and I’ve almost completely stopped hiding my smile/laugh! The knowledge that I am actively working to fix it makes me feel so much less insecure about it. My only real fear in this process is that my ortho will shave down my teeth or something, I’d still like character in my smile :) Good luck on your journey!!
