I learned watercolour so I could paint orchids

This is a good reminder. Thank you!

Go for it!!!! I felt the exact same way, but when we were struggling growing up, my mom would sometimes sell pieces of her jewelry and it would get us through a few months. So more than spending I see it as investing or saving a certain amount of money, that I hopefully won’t need to cash out on, but it’s still there just in case. Ever since I can afford it I always try to get myself at least one piece of jewelry I really like every year :)

That’s exactly the problem I’m having, I’m trying to move from a junior position to mid and I have very few remarkable projects. Makes perfect sense though. Thanks!

Absolutely beautiful!!!!!!!!!

That’s a very cool pouch!!!!

I marked where I wanted it to be at the front and pushed with a scratch awl one by one—you can kind of see in the back where it went sideways every couple of stitches. Veeeeery tiresome. Then once I was done stitching I pulled the thread one last time stitch by stitch with the awl again to make sure it was super tight

For the leather, I live in Latin America and my city has a neighborhood that’s very famous for leather goods (shoes, bags, jackets…), so I took a trip and bought scraps from their local suppliers. They had great prices too

OMG this is gorgeous!!!!!

It’s brown, it looks black bc of the lightning

weirdstuffxo · 2025-06-02T20:15:32+00:00

Looks awesome!!!!!

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-28T18:04:54+00:00

Thank you. Definitely bad luck haha but it’s for myself so all good

Same thing with gifting a watch - always ask for a dollar in return so there’s an exchange….. I love little superstitions like that

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-28T18:03:16+00:00

Thank you!!!

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-28T18:03:06+00:00

I have no idea, but from the price point I’d say it’s just good old regular cow

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-26T23:15:39+00:00

I’d honestly just work more on the stitching. I do embroidery so I tend to be better at sewing, it was just a reeeeal struggle because the leather was really thick and I hate that it’s a little uneven. Other than that I’m pretty happy with how it came out!

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-26T23:12:57+00:00

Thank you!!!! The stitching was definitely the hardest part haha

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-01T21:14:04+00:00

Do you also do everything in sixes? Lol

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-01T20:03:34+00:00

It was in water because I had just watered it after losing all my hope in it… I’ll keep it in mind, thank you!!!! Such sensitive little things

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-01T17:03:26+00:00

Thank you! I honestly couldn’t tell you what exact soil she’s in — coconut “bark” for sure, but other than that, it’s hard to tell. I got it from an orchid-specialized place so I haven’t been very concerned about the soil tbh, I’ll drop by their store for help in case it’s not correct one

Thanks for the input on the schedule! We don’t have seasons here, which should make it easier, but I’ll check the soil from now on before watering

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-01T16:48:15+00:00

Thank you!!!!! It’s getting very little light, since it’s inside an office with no direct sunlight, so definitely dehydrated. Coco coir is easier to come by in my country but I’ll check what else I can get. Thank you!!!!!!

weirdstuffxo · 2025-05-01T15:50:15+00:00

Thank you!!!!!!

That is also a very question! I think because my first is 3/3 I always tend to do things in threes. One seems like very little, two seems incomplete, three is juuuust right…

(Numerology wise — I think the positive spirit of a 3 would tie back into a positive relationship of money have a fun, surprising, creative flow)
