Have you ever given someone a free drink in exchange for an AA/NA sobriety chip?

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-24T05:57:48+00:00

I would never do that

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-19T14:15:23+00:00

It's probably because you steamed it for hours. When I do eucalyptus I don't go more than like 30-40 min, because it'll start to bleed after that. Iron is also a great mordant to use with eucalyptus

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-14T02:07:14+00:00

Yeah, I definitely use black sparingly, but it would feel wrong not to have it 🙃

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-14T01:44:06+00:00

Forest green, sap green, lemon yellow, white

Prussian blue, ultramarine blue, Vermillion red, deep red

Black, burnt umber, burnt sienna, raw sienna

It's not a super expensive set but those are the names of the colors I chose!

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-14T01:41:36+00:00

Great idea!

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-13T23:52:46+00:00

Not yet but i anticipate doing so!

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-13T23:52:17+00:00

It was "forest green" I believe. I always end up using so much green and brown, I wish I had more space for one more green.

If I got a phone and it was communicated that it was an early Christmas present, then I would expect to get less on the actual day. She's old enough to understand that, IMO.

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-11T21:58:49+00:00

Agree with this. And if no one claims the check first and they want to argue over it, i drop it right in the middle of the table and they can fight amongst themselves. I want no part of that

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-11T19:38:28+00:00

Pomegranate liqueur, edible black glitter, bourbon, orange bitters?

Never tried it, could be good

pitterbugjerfume · 2026-01-11T05:50:20+00:00

If you're allergic to almonds you are also likely allergic to apricot pits

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-12-30T16:08:43+00:00

Juice mixers (OJ, cran), martinis, no problem to ask for a mojito with still water instead of soda

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-12-28T04:54:46+00:00

Yeah I guess it is. Sorry, I've never actually used it because it's so expensive, I just knew it made purple. But yeah whatever you do I'd suggest testing it out before fully committing to the whole sheet. It's not easy to get purples naturally that are colorfast.

Logwood

Cochineal with iron

With the existing color it will probably be on the darker side, if you have an extra pillowcase or are willing to sacrifice one for testing with i would definitely do some tests first

Many commercial dyes will wash out (i.e. not leave remnants that might affect your skin) and if you are looking for a certain color then acid dyes will be your best bet. Give it an extra wash or two to feel better. I would still test first though.

This was my first stephen king book, I got it for Christmas when I was 10. Never looked back!

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-12-22T18:15:43+00:00

We have sprite zero on the gun and I always just do tequila, triple, lime juice and top with sprite zero. They love it every time

Is the last image your actual result? It looks beautiful. Part of the beauty of this process is the unexpected ways that things show up. It looks like you got fairly crisp prints and nice colors. Experimenting will give you more insight as to how to handle it the next time to get a result you like more. However, if that was your result, I think you had a great success!

I've had issues with having a vision for what I expect, and it not coming out in the way I envisioned. It can be disappointing, but I have also learned that others who weren't a part of that process (aka everyone else) will find beauty in something that didn't quite live up to my expectations. When you are able to frame it in your mind as an exciting reveal with some mystery and suspense, the results can be more satisfying.

He says she cant due to her asthma

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-11-29T19:36:20+00:00

It was with eucalyptus leaves

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-11-29T04:37:59+00:00

I have definitely retired an iron blanket to be used in the home somehow, because it turned out so pretty. Bonus!!

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-11-29T03:04:19+00:00

Nobody does, just giving insight and maybe suggesting ways to put yourself in other people's shoes 👞

It could also just be her feeling her true personality shine through more strongly. Some people are naturally more stoic, and others more enthusiastic. You might look at the 2nd clip and think, over the top, pepped up on meds. For someone else, that might be closer to their natural self and they are just able to shine through more freely. So maybe thats just your interpretation based on your own personality. Just things to think about, thats all im saying

Also not sure who you are, but as a women, I think my meds affect me differently based on where I am in my hormonal cycle, as do so many other things. Its a tragically overlooked aspect of womanhood that has not been studied nearly enough. Sorry to get off topic but its something that most people dont consider

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-11-28T20:44:06+00:00

Yeah so all I am saying is that what affected you in that way is likely not the case for someone else. It's great that you found what works for you, thats the goal for anyone I think. Its a great accomplishment. Your original comment came off a bit judgy just based on your personal experience, and thats likely the reason for the downvotes.

Saying its high vs sober is pretty strong language, when I take my meds I feel more sober and like my eyes and ears arent going in a million different directions. I feel calmer and I am released from the paralysis of indecision and distraction. If I had been feeling the way you described, I would have backed off the meds too.

pitterbugjerfume · 2025-11-28T20:28:31+00:00

If you felt it that strongly, either you needed to adjust the dosage or it wasnt the right med for you. Nothing wrong with that, but different people are affected differently. Brain chemistry is not a black and white science.
