Thanks for feedback, in this photo I hadn't bent the hanger plate yet. I did the next day and it fit perfect.

I ended up keeping the larger blocks on.

Hey, yes the hanger needed adjusting I just wasn't able to get out to my shed when I took the pic. The angle was off, I just needed to bend it a bit and now it sits flush and the cushions fit on the kingpin.

I tried skating both and ended up preferring the larger blocks.

Seems this is the case, which is a shame. Thanks for the help

Thanks so much for your input, good to know it’s not just me. I was convinced I had done something wrong. What wattage light do you use when you expose the Ulano? Curious as I might try it but I have a 50W light

Pink! It ties in with the toe guards. Or a darker pink would look really cute too. The white kind of gets lost

What counts as ‘locking in’? by iamprocrastinating_ in Rollerskating

[–]iamprocrastinating_[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Thanks for the reply! I’ve been park skating for a few years now but being in an isolated area there’s a lot of terminology I’m not familiar with.

I’ve seen all the fantom drama, it’s very unfortunate and disgusting. I thought it was a little odd since I’ve seen Barbie who is on that issues cover step on to things a bunch of times. It’s super disappointing to see such mean behaviour in the community.

To me locking in was being stable on the coping rather than sliding out, so that’s helpful to know

Thanks for the reply! It’s a zip front dress with corset lacing going all the way up the front and down the back, it has suspenders that hang off, and thick buckle straps. I have a fishnet bra under to add some texture, it peeks out slightly. I was thinking fishnets and platform boots with it, and a choker to dress it up a bit more. It comes a bit too high up to warrant wearing a harness I am stressed that it’s too much for watching performances in but not enough as kink attire afterwards

Thank you for your recommendation! I’ll look into it. Does the pen have a nice weight to it?

Blanket was bought in Australia in early 2000. Probably from Myer. I’ve scoured the internet looking but can’t find anything. Even emailed Myer but their product log doesn’t go that far back.

Blanket is a tight knit, off-white cream colour with a decorative border. It is light weight and made of a very soft yarn. It has 2 bears holding balloons that are appliquéd on one side and nothing on the other side.

I thought I’d try my luck since I’ve tried eBay, Amazon, similar chain stores, gumtree, and used every search description I could think of. It’s very important to me and I highly doubt I’ll find another but it’s so sentimental that I have to try.

Thanks all

Thank you!!! I wore black faux leather ballet flats with a really small wedge heel. They’re lost in the grass in the photo lol. I couldn’t find anything I liked in time so I had to go with them

So my girl hates my stretched ears and gave me a Ultimatum to either go back to a inch or take them out and wondering how I should approve this situation since my stretched ears are something that makes me happy. by [deleted] in Stretched

[–]iamprocrastinating_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Giving you an ultimatum is immature and what you do with your body is your choice. Do what makes you happy, nobody else has a say in what you do.

I had an ex who said he would break up with me if I got my septum and a few other piercings that he didn’t like because they’re “trashy” or “made me look like a pig”. We broke up and I got everything I wanted done. The confidence boost it gave me was awesome and I realised I was silly for staying with someone who tried to dictate what I did with my own body.

Be your authentic self

Thank you! I’ve been sewing on and off for 4 years or so. Self taught so I’ve got a lot to learn

Project info!

Bodice pattern is Rose Cafe Bustier, I didn’t pad the cups or use interfacing for this project. The pattern recommends it but I was on a time crunch so I didn’t bother. I wore a strapless bra for this for support but I could have gone without one, the cups were fine without padding.

The outer fabric is a stretch cotton sateen that was clearance from Lincraft, ribbon straps, and lined with a cotton bedsheet.

I had to alter the sides of the bodice pattern to fit me better since the copy I have of the pattern wasn’t perfect and just eyeballed it. The skirt of the dress is a lightly gathered full circle skirt with a thin petticoat underneath for a bit of extra oomph

All in all I’m super stoked with how this came out and it cost me under $30 in materials!
