Day 2 of #30for30Crafting! Moar Chrono progress today :D
Joining Crafting Geek’s #30for30Crafting! Doing a craft or crafts for 30 mins a day for 30 days then posting the progress so we can all root for one another! It sounded super fun so here I am working on my Chrono Trigger set! I will probably be working on ShadowGate too!
Somedays posting up doodles or stitches and listening to people love them and connect with them has kept me going on some really dark days, it gives me a purpose…and helps fight the invasive voices. A///I puts that in danger but most days I barely have energy as it is.
Like I don’t have enough spell slots of do it constantly. It is hard to be mentally ill and have it be debilitating and then have to constantly fight this A///I garbage to not steal the art your out your damn heart and soul into. It is even more exhausting.
I literally feel like garbage cause I don’t have the bandwidth to keep deleting galleries and running everytime they steal my art for their A\\\I garbage…or threaten to steal it….I cannot keep starting over…I cannot keep fighting constantly and losing the following I built again and again.
Sometimes I get the urge to watch cheesy movies like the 1995 Casper Film or Ever After or Penelope….
I have been a hot dumpster fire mess for month and I am trying to get my shit together and this is not helping lol
I think I lost the bag with all my DMC 800 threads and I am mad 😡
Having this much equipment at my disposal is kinda overwhelming.
I got a glowforge awhile ago and I love it. Tonight, a family member called me and they tried to get into Sublimation but it didn’t go well and they cannot return the equipment so they called and asked if I wanted it since they would sell it to me, I said yes so now I have a sublimation set up too.
Do I have a complete maker space now? Like I have a laser cutter…I have a sublimation set up…I have a Cricut and a ecotank…well two eco tanks.
So….I just whoopsied a sublimation set up from someone…so soon I can sublimate at home.
....It is interesting how when you watch things when older....you are like there is literally no heterosexual explanation behind this song....
Holy crackers, we are finally getting Angel’s Egg over here :DDD
Just gonna sild this here! I love doing Art Fight and it is coming up in July!! So here is my profile :D Feel free to share yours as well!

I have like 0 goals this week cause I am tired and idk what I will end up doing. I am gonna be working on something starting June 1st so that will be fun! It is called 30 for 30 Crafting and it is doing 30 Mins of a a Craft each day then posting it :D
That moment when you let your mask down for a moment to talk about something then come to the realization that you should have just kept the mask on.
If you see this, share something romantic from your portfolio 🖤💖
So I collect Pokemon Cards…and have for about a year now. 151 had this really cool binder collection and I think all Pokemon sets should release one cause it so cool to have a binder actually themed toward the set!
Did I just spend the rest of my commission money on a basically entirely sealed Project A-Ko collection on VHS…..yes….yes I did :DD
Have to restart Chrono this morning after the mishap last night and I am sads :(
It is like super easy to mess up your tensions when stitching and with my perfectionist brain…I cannot deal with a finished piece looking messy or too tight. I pride myself in my work too much for that. I have been so stressed and depressed lately that my stitches are suffering from being a mess…
I am legit upset over messing this up but I was getting so angry with the convo and him and the husband arguing when all I wanted was to go down, hang out and try to beat Streets of Rage 2 together instead I am in bed….angry about my poor ruined Chrono :(
When the husband is on the phone with someone and the conversation is so infuriating that you end up pulling your stitches too tight and basically mess up an almost done piece 😭
Holy crackers SheezyAry is back?? That takes me back.
So I am working on 16 count aida today for a large piece and there is something about these tiny little stitches that makes my brain so incredibly happy lol
Up to early after being up to late sooo tired *flops*
I am actually super thankful the husband introduced me to Helluva cause it has lessened the YOI blow quite a bit. Like I still adore YOI but having something that I also love actually getting merch and content is doing me good.
I am so dang tired from all the merch excitement for Helluva. It feels so weird after all this time to actually have a series I love get merch and content after enduring the Yuri on Ice drought to only have the movie cancelled and get no further anything. My brain gets a little too happy.
SOFT BABIES WITH FLOWERS….Helluva merch people got my dang number with these. I shut up and took my money so fast for these. Got the Stolitz as a poster and the Stolas for a new desk mat! Plan on ordering the FizzyOzzie and M and M posters on payday!
Looks like I might have a pop up market coming here soon and they want Kaiju themed goodies and I am legit all over it :D Godzilla and the gang are legit some of my fav things to stitch and I have been working on converting over more Kaiju recently :D
There is something so pleasing about floss organized in use color order :D
Like this little set is part of my stash but I would love to start using it cause it does have a great color range, like it is a nice little set!
Tested the lightfastness of some Amazon thread over the last couple months and everything seems to be a ok for me to use it…granted I still don’t know think it should be exposed to direct sun constantly forever :/ It did fine with exposed in my office window for a couple months.
You absolutely read it correctly. Like people like the art but they want like the super pretty, shiny space with all the pretty fixings when you do reels and videos and it is like…I literally cannot.
Like I don’t have a super aesthetic workspace, I have a functional workspace…I don’t have a ton of money for anything super aesthetic…or I spend money on supplies or equipment rather than aesthetics but everyone wants content with the fake glitter and I just have such a hard time with that.
That moment when not being super aesthetic and being able to make super cute reels is murdering my reach and following…people who can do this have such better numbers than I do…*sigh* Like numbers aren’t everything but god it kinda stings.
A good manager encourages breaks with cuteness 💖 He says no you do not need to plan number engraved floss bobbins for your glowforge right now 🥲😂
