I’m finally done with my dress! Finally finished! The dress design came from when I wanted a dress from Selkie. The dress I was wanting was always sold out in my size! The green plaid dress with the slit and ruffle. Oh it was beautiful! But, old out. I knew what I had to do. I needed to make one myself. I looked at the style, checking how to make it. I had a pattern by Vicki sews (I suggest not that one, it was a pain, instructions on pdf and very vague.) I am looking for one that is easier. I looked at the fabric type. Paper Cotton type. Hmm… I went on spoonflower and got the signature petal cotton. It has a nice drape for clothes. Then, I picked out the pattern of plaid. A green Irish plaid. This plaid also comes in other colors! I may do pink next! Fun! The always sold out Selkie . I bought on Amazon a green cotton bolt of fabric 3 yards was more than enough for a size 12. And the original dress has the basic ribbon, I decided to go with a lush black velvet r...
It has been a hot minute around here. I don't always talk about this because there is a lot of negativity around the whole idea around homeschooling. And a lot of the negativity is justified. The unschooling method that people misinterpret and how everyone seems to think that homeschool is just for weird Christian fundamentalists. It makes it a tad bit harder to navigate the homeschool life. I know, from my personal experience, that it isn't for everyone. Also, I get that those posts about homeschool and it being abusive isn't aimed at me. Those posts are in regards to parents who do misuse the system and treat homeschool as a political statement, religious lunacy(these are the same people who do not understand basic biology), neglect hidden in the "unschooling" method. I don't feel to yell, NOT ALL HOMESCHOOL! Because those issues need to be addressed and badly. No, my reasons for homeschooling one of my 2 boys is as follows. Because he wasn't getting t...
Hello friends and void. OUTFIT from the other day. tee // skirt // stocking compressio n// o ver stockings // I definitely feel as though I am screaming into the void whenever I post something. Whether here or on my social media. Especially on the social media pages. I feel like I am just talking into or yelling into nothingness. You know, the void. It can be a bit of a mood killer when that happens. As there is nothing commenting back. It seems only the super attractive or those posting more rage bait style or engagement bait style posts get any kind of follow. I am none of those things. And I refuse to do engagement bait. How to spot them? Rage bait doesn't necessarily have to be in your face with the rage. It can be something small, like a zipper on the back of the dress not zipped up all the way on purpose. Engagement bait? They ask things like "hey cosplayers, show me your most recent cosplays!"or they will say " Show me your PETS!" and they never respo...
