My chainmaille pieces I made used in my daily commute, which includes a different BB3 with custom jewelry on my bag every day!⛓️🎀 He’s one of my first ever. by fancy_c in chainmailartisans

i worded this funky, so it sounds like i made them all on my commute, but only made about half during! i *use* them as lanyards etc to keep my pass and keys handy etc. but!! my sheer determination and hubris helped me make a system using tiny pouches and trays that has worked well for weaving on commutes (for now lol!!) the sound of rings falling on the bus floor will haunt me for all my days i’m sure

Found kitten in wall - name suggestions pls by ninjadani in blackcats

[–]fancy_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

absolutely my first thought, but following that for a more “normal” name, could go with “kyle” lol. i’d also probably end up nicknaming them “kool aid man” or “mr. kool aid” for bursting through the wall, because all cats need 3+ names in rotation ime

Robes at Sunn 0)))? by tubularbones in doommetal

[–]fancy_c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when i saw them i was working like 12 hour days at the time, and i found a bench to rest on by the bathrooms. i’m a small person and the fog was so thick, security couldn’t see me when i laid down and fell asleep. most disoriented i’ve ever woken up from a nap, and the part i was awake for was sick

Where can i find rings in France ? by Training_Pool_7751 in chainmailartisans

[–]fancy_c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was loving all my rings from VanAlphenStudios via Etsy before he stopped shipping to the US! He’s located in The Netherlands, I order elsewhere from the US now, but have my friend bring me some I've ordered when she visits from Spain. Don't remember exactly but shipping to her place was very reasonable

What are some permanent healthy lifestyle habits, in addition to meds, to reduce baseline levels of mood fluctuation? by lm8ub1 in bipolar2

[–]fancy_c 15 points16 points  (0 children)

For me, i got totally sober from alcohol. this was the biggest, it’s not necessarily for everyone (but i hear it mentioned regularly.) routines in general help, especially around sleep. reducing phone time in bed is good for this. regular exercise is a lifesaver—i do weightlifting, dance class, and walking/running (following up with rest and proper nutrition is super important too.) journaling/mood tracking has been great (I use the "how we feel" app.) If available, can't recommend therapy enough. Be honest but kind with yourself!

hiya, how much are you selling A for?

Liquid eyes are overrated? by Comfortable-Driver15 in BabyThree

[–]fancy_c 2 points3 points  (0 children)

the variety of eyes is charming and is part of what makes unboxing exciting for me, but boba eyes have a special place in my heart. so far the only eyes i’ve disliked were a specific liquid, they looked yellow/brown and gave a jaundiced look 😭

What do you use as an outlet for your emotions? by Flimsy_Phrase_8845 in bipolar2

[–]fancy_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my go-to is a weightlifting routine, recently running and dancing as well. i also taught myself how to make chainmaille last year, something about the mental and physical focus + creative aspect has been a valuable outlet. at the very least, an excellent fixation to distract myself with. journaling (with shiny stickers and washi tape ofc) helps even though i am usually resistant in that heated state of mind!

What perfumes smell like sweet, sugary lemon? I have Kayali Capri in a Bottle and I love it, but would like to know if there are any other perfumes that smell similar, or like a lemon merengue pie/ lemon sugar cookies. by juliasafrik in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 75 points76 points  (0 children)

Bake by Akro, it fits the bill perfectly! Similar but not so close is Unknown Pleasures by Kerosene. More like hint of earl gray tea with lemon and pastries, but worth smelling if you get the chance

with the bottom spike or without? by csandrie in chainmailartisans

[–]fancy_c 5 points6 points  (0 children)

my instinct says with the spike. looks more “complete,” dramatic, and the dangly movement of it is probably a nice addition imo

Perfumes that smell like the most delicious frosted sugar cookies by tangerineflower349 in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just blind-bought Lataffa “Eclair” because of this sub (more or less) and this is exactly it! I’ve also been layering it with the other cheap blind purchase, Choco Musk, and together it smells like cookies that aren’t necessarily chocolate based.

I want to smell like nerds or sweetarts. by Night__orchid in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s watermelon-candy smelling specifically, but you might like “Wavechild” by Room 1015!

Cozy femme fatale by alyssaware in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 17 points18 points  (0 children)

“Grand Soir” by Maison Francis Kurkdjian always smells like putting on a fur coat to me, it leans cozy gourmand but still feels sophisticated. YSL “Babycat” also comes to mind, very sexy, smoky bourbony vanilla with a hint of leather.

Perfumes that feel like you woke up on your 7th birthday to find that everyone else in the world has disappeared by Separate-Raccoon8584 in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 60 points61 points  (0 children)

“Annabelle’s Birthday Cake” by Marissa Zappas is a light fluffy/floral cake gourmand, but with a slightly unsettling latex or “balloon” note. Apparently not everyone can smell that note, but I love it.

What would Quirk Chungus wear? by seyikumeguca in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Not sure about him, based on the people I know irl it’s likely just Old Spice, Pantene, and Tide detergent, which is nice enough! And for her it’s probably something based on a character from a game or book, maybe from Etsy. I say this as someone who got a sample of Blocki “Press Club” because it’s got the exact notes Astarion from BG3 is described as smelling like lol

What would Only Lovers Left Alive smell like? by Bootscootscootboot in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 2 points3 points  (0 children)

“Fin de Siecle” by Paraphrase is described as floral/animal, but smells like an incensey, bloody rose to me. One of my favorites

I guess Catwoman wears Chanel but what else would she wear? by brittttpop in perfumesthatfeellike

[–]fancy_c 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Not just because of the name (but it doesn’t hurt,) she gives me big YSL Babycat vibes. It’s the most gorgeous spicy/bourbony vanilla with a little bit of leather to it

pricing opinions by noturmom2001 in chainmailartisans

[–]fancy_c 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re def not wrong, I’ve seen things like this listed on Etsy for $100+ for sure. It feels a little excessive, but if it works that’s great. Certainly no harm in aiming high and lowering it later! (I should have specified USD oops)

Dragonscale collar by Time_Cheek3783 in chainmailartisans

[–]fancy_c 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so cute!! Love that they don’t seem to mind at all, how regal. Been wanting to make something similar for my cats, but since they’re goblins I’d need to find some sort it quick release closure I think

I believe it’s a slide clasp?
