I’ve by no means wanted to defend them or my particular paper reducing scissors. Plus our family has…hmmm…eleven1 totally different pairs of scissors and solely 5 of them are specialised. My partner does use my oldest and junkiest pair to chop open cardboard bins so presumably the distinction between civilized and never is knowing which could be abused that approach.

I needed to put up this sewing-related nail artwork at present each as a result of I painted it clear again in 2022 and it’s greater than time and likewise as a result of I actually wish to sew a bit extra in 2024. On the very least my to-mend pile is approach too excessive. I did make a dent in it the final little bit of 2023 so I’ve hopes! I simply must get my arms on recent elastic as a result of a number of issues I put on loads are doing nice however for that. I suppose the elastic dying is a reasonably good signal that I’m getting a variety of use out of my garments!
Beneath we have now a polish bottle shot with simply the bottom polishes. Sarcastically that is one thing I is likely to be doing any further. I not too long ago saved (not made) swatch photographs of all my polishes as a digital reference similar to my stamping plate assortment. Initially, so grateful for all of the people who swatch on the market. It’s a lot work and actually a useful useful resource. Second, a variety of the photographs I saved had been from blogs that don’t even exist anymore. Unhappy to consider, particularly since my very own weblog faces the identical destiny once I cross on and archive.org doesn’t at all times seize the photographs relying on how they had been inserted into the web page.

It’s a bit extra work, however I’m hoping it’ll assist me recover from the psychological problem I’ve about “having sufficient stuff to take photographs with to make it value coping with the glue tabs”. It’s actually slowed down the image taking and that hasn’t helped with getting weblog posts out.
