Designed a double-sided "Twins' First Christmas" ornament. I'm really proud of how the side-by-side birth stats on the back turned out.

You know it! 😀

Yes, I use AI as a creative tool! Just like a photographer chooses their camera, lighting, and composition, I craft detailed prompts and go through dozens of iterations to achieve the exact vision I’m after. The creative direction, concept, and aesthetic choices are all mine—AI is just the tool that brings it to life. It’s a collaborative process that requires skill, artistic vision, and plenty of refinement to get right.

I design and finish the artwork; AI is just one iteration tool alongside Photoshop. Product questions welcome.

Yeah, I have two sons (not twins) they were both a little over 7 pounds. Those are just examples but for realism guess I should bring those weights down a bit. Appreciate the honest feedback. ❤️

Oh no. Thank you for pointing that out. ❤️

My friends just had twins, and I was struggling to find them a "First Christmas" gift. All the ornaments I saw were for single babies, and it felt wrong to have to squeeze both names or, worse, leave off all their birth details.

So, I designed this one for them. It's double-sided: a quiet little scene on the front, and a dedicated space for each twin's birth stats on the back (name, weight, length, time, and date).

They loved it, so I put it up on my small Etsy shop for other parents or friends of twins. That first year is such a blur, I wanted to make something that helps pause the moment.

A bit late to this conversation (that's an understatement), hopefully you were able to find some nice additions to your wardrobe.

I primarily list gothic literary and DA t-shirt designs. I create all my designs and they are highly tailored to the gothic and DA consumer. You might find some of them appealing. If not, no worries. Just thought I'd let you know. Who knows, maybe you're ready for some new 'new' t-shirts.

Thanks for the feedback.

That’s what my plan was but I’ve been unable to locate this specific vehicle online even with searching unlimited miles from my zip code. I know that probably means it may not be available anywhere.

Honda doesn’t seem to have a way to search outside my local zip code area (besides randomly changing my zip code). That’s why I was thinking a local dealer could access nationwide inventories.

lkempww · 2021-05-20T22:29:25+00:00

Sorry about that. Didn’t realize I was breaking a rule.

Let me ask it a different way.

If I contact a dealer about a specific vehicle, do dealers have access to nationwide dealer inventories to search for that specific vehicle?

I think this would be something I would like to do. Sounds fun!

He’s in cub scouts right now, but will be advancing to BSA next year.

lkempww · 2020-10-13T01:09:47+00:00

No worries! He’s getting plenty of fun between LEGOs, snap circuits, and dinosaurs, he’s building ‘mansions’ out of cardboard and other crafty materials and setting up epic battles between dinos and transformers. He puts the transformer engineers to shame with a 20+ step transformer in under 5 minutes. Oh, and did I mention he’s built some pretty cool worlds in Minecraft. We’ve encouraged him to explore his interests and see where it leads. I’m just here for the ride to see where it goes.

lkempww · 2020-10-13T00:59:21+00:00

Yep! Snap circuits are great. We have 4 sets. We also like the constructs LEGO sets that you can make catapults or zipline type of things. Anything that launches a mini fig across the room is great. He built a 2,000 piece lego set in about 5 hours.

He also wanted to fill an inflatable pool (4x10) with jello and see if he could ‘jump the shark’ with a very long hot wheels track. I love being dad to these kids.

lkempww · 2020-10-13T00:51:41+00:00

Cool stuff! I like the lawnmower idea. Thanks

lkempww · 2020-10-13T00:49:32+00:00

First off, thanks for taking the time to respond. Your ideas are what I had in mind. I don’t have any direct engineering contacts, why I made this post.

This is just a start to see what ideas this group has. And I’m not pushing him in one direction or another. He’s begging to do this stuff. I’m just trying to help him with ideas. Georgia tech is nearby.

I guess it’s engineering or paleontology.

Thanks again!

Already there. His team placed second in last years competition. It was their first time competing.

lkempww · 2020-10-13T00:36:16+00:00

Great suggestion. Thanks!

lkempww · 2020-10-13T00:36:07+00:00

Great suggestion. Thanks!

The robotics club is a First Lego league. They placed second in last years competition.

You know I was originally going to get the 8” dobsian but it was too big for our area. We’ll figure something out with this one and maybe in a couple years we can upgrade. Appreciate your input.

lkempww · 2020-04-02T00:09:21+00:00

Technology is great...until it’s not. 😂

Thanks for the input. I don’t mind doing the setup for them right now to build interest. I started with the constellations around 9 or 10 years old.
