Ok I’m obsessed with the bookmarks I’m working on. They feel so solid and special. The D6 charms are my favorite so far and I’m glad I’ll have them in a bunch in colors. I might actually put the dice ones up on Etsy. Most of what I’m working on right now will be up after in-person sales. 📚

They really do want to destroy everything and make all of our lives worse overall. So much is happening in every corner of the government (intentionally) it’s impossible to stay informed all the time.

Time to switch plans ugh… Ok, but instead of switching and getting a new phone, what if I just charge up this dinosaur and play Angry Birds for a year and never make a single phone call ever again? What then?

The studying continues despite fluffy distractions. (I did kiss his little nose repeatedly though)

It's kinda dumb how when you remember to take your meds you actually feel better. Why not just feel better naturally huh? Ever thought of that?

Possible ADHD activities for today: Laundry Homework Make bookmark charms Crochet ornaments Sand and/or paint resin trinkets Eat cheese Bleach/change litter box Watch X-Files Clean my desk Dishes (👎 don’t wanna) Kitty play time Shower Photograph things I’m making and post about them (?) lol

Newest mushroom nightlight/jar turned out so good!!! Layers and sparkles and plenty of transparent windows for light to shine through. The green isn’t so yellow as it looks here either, more of a nice light jade.

The sun goes down so early, it’s like as soon as I get the things I need to get done before I can start on the other things I need to get done, the sun is low and I feel like bedtime is just a couple hours away. The afternoon is so short now and I’m such a midday productive person. Dangit!

As if I don’t already have too many projects to multitask, today I will bag up all my holiday fabrics and scoot over to my mom’s to match and swipe some fabric from her stash. I literally don’t even need more fabric honestly. Why am I doing this? I also need to do homework, finals are soon. 🙃

New possible items for the Deck The Halls event coming up. Charms and/or bookmarks. I’m making/designing so many little things I might not be able to do everything. I’m working on lots of stocking stuffer items. Come see me at the Deck The Halls Event, Reno: www.renopublicmarket.com/deck-the-hal...

Me to myself every single day making trinkets 🥰

So, I open the fridge this morning and see pounds of cheese and a large bag of salami. Apparently it’s leftover from the restaurant (hubby is part owner) buying bulk by accident for a catering event. They decided to share it rather than trash it. I can’t believe they bought so much cheese 🧀 …

I just wanted to bake some potatoes in the pressure cooker and I had to re-cook them 3 times cause it wasn’t holding pressure well and the potatoes were only half cooked. I FORGOT TO CHECK THE SILICONE SEAL. One hour later then I wanted, I can finally eat ughhh

Time for crochet and some Elder Scrolls Yelp reviews.

I love making ornaments right now and it’s been keeping me in design mode, but also I wish I could crochet for longer periods and get a lot more made. My husband just suggested bringing a 3-4 foot tall Christmas tree to display them, but I would need to make like 60 more. So much to do 🧶

I’m having fun working on some cute little holiday shelf decor animals. Baby seal in a Santa hat is my favorite so far, but crocheting the hat is really hard on my wrist so I probably won’t make too many. 🦭

Kinda missed up that in order to get things done I have to stand up off the sofa.

I made some white chocolate bears! (sorry they’re resin, not actually yummy) They will have painted faces and cute little crochet Santa hats eventually.

Dinosaurs are year-round all-season decor actually. Follow me for more obvious takes on interior design.

❄️Wooo it’s official!☃️ I will be vending at the Deck The Halls event in Reno Public Market for 3 Saturdays in a row!! November 29th, December 6th and 13th! I have SOOOO much to do!!! www.renopublicmarket.com/deck-the-hal...

Want to buy yourself something nice for cheap? Most of my items are under $40*, including $10 dice boxes and $20 dice trays! #SelfPromoSaturday #ttrpg #chainmail #bsnm ko-fi.com/nerdsbian/shop

Last night I charged up my Switch Lite and visited my ACNH island for the first time in… A YEAR AND A HALF I thought I’d mess around and say goodbye to maybe start up a new island, but damn I missed my villagers. My pet MAGA bald eagle asshole can gtfo though, he’s not fun anymore.

New square folding table for markets! I’m so excited to use up more space and rearrange my displays. This also means I can maybe use this weird tree to display ornaments (possibly) Still a long way to go, but I feel like I’m getting my shit together or something. Also crochet hurt my arm 🫠 🧶

Welp woke up to my whole left forearm hurting like crazy (no idea what I did) and high winds noisily crashing against the house, and omg we already have a brush fire this morning with 80mph winds expected in the usual spots all day. Time for indoor activities.

Everyone cross your fingers and toes! I just finished pouring resin to test some new molds and I don’t want to discover any issues tomorrow. I want to pop those cuties out of their molds tomorrow without any problems to solve. Not a single disappointment would really make my day.

Not every kitchen needs every appliance, but when you find a few you use a lot it really is worth investing in a good one if you can. For me it’s the pressure cooker and the air fryer/toaster oven. I was skeptical about the air fryer at first, but we’ve had it a year now and use it every day.

Why is my cat so hyper about going to bed? Feels backwards. Boy is Skedaddling down the hallway every 2 minutes then coming back to check on me, on repeat.

Crochet ornaments design update! This morning’s first draft on the left and this afternoon’s round 2 on the right! I like my edges better and I think it will block up nicely. I love it when I’m in design mode and I actually remember to take notes. 🧶

💚 Hey crafters and little shop owners 💚 Feel welcome to drop a link or a sale promo post here - then I’ll give it a RT during the next couple of weeks and spread the word

I’m working on a D20 inspired crochet ornament and whipped this up this morning. I want to change a couple things and might add a felt back or something, but I absolutely love the look so far!! I really enjoy making ornaments right now. I need to take notes before I forget what I did too! 🧶 ✍🏻

I’m working on stuff. Holiday gummy teddy bears with matching Santa hats!?! I have a handful of these from last summer and I’m trying to turn them into holiday decor. I’ll have to glue the hat on. Also they will each get a little jingle bell necklace. Should I keep going? Also more stars! ✨

I just opened Bluesky and tapped to open a new post instead of opening Google to start a new search. 😐 So anyway

Finally! We get to play dnd tonight! I’m exhausted and sleepy, but I can’t let this opportunity slip away. Woo!

After trying out a few things I think @threadleafcrochet.bsky.social ‘s idea is working out the best! Thank you! I don’t know many beading techniques and this simple change allows me to keep using matching yarn as a hanger and it looks really nice 🥰

I’m hearing there’s a cute Animal Crossing Update. Might have to find out later today. Maybe I’ll finally be brave and start a new island (been thinking about it for like a year at this point lol)

I just got home from being lost in a dinosaur corn maze for the last few hours. They did a really good job this year. 11 of us showed up and we managed to find 4 or 5 of the Dino DNA check points out of 10. Corn mazes are so fun!

October has gone by insultingly fast. A lot of things were going on this month, out of my control and I’ve been doing my best, but I’m now sad I never got a costume together, painted my nails like I planned or cleaned up the front walk. Is what it is. I’m baking banana bread now as a bandaid.

Well, I just ran into an issue with my star ornaments. The knot in the yarn at the top isn’t really big enough to not lose the beads. Also the shooting star tassel idea is not there yet cause again the bead fell off cause I didn’t really think about how to do that one. Brainstorming continues 🧶

Staying on task isn’t something I’m great at when left alone. So, here’s the deal: for every crochet star ornament I make, I get to read a few pages. 🧶

I started to plan out some little star ornaments last night. I’m hoping to be accepted to vend for 3 Saturdays in a row at the end of November into December. I’ll also do some snowflakes, but once I settle on the design I hope to churn out a bunch of these. I’ll make them in fun random colors. 🧶 ⭐️✨

I’m overall depleted. The last week has been a lot. One of my best friends lost his mom, I ended up staying behind to house and pet sit for 2 households while he and his partners and 2 other friends traveled for the funeral. My own house is a mess and my husbands been working overtime. 😣🫠 tired

Me: Magical Cauldron! Giver of the yes or no answers! Will chapter 8 be the death of me?? Magical Cauldron: COUNT ON IT Me: 😭😭😭 I knew it!

I was at the used book lot today. This one didn’t age well.

I still have a bunch of ends to clean up and it feels janky, but here’s a cute little crochet backpack.

The good news is, last night I eventually finished the bag portion of this new trinket bag I’m making, the bad news is I can’t work on it this morning cause I have other work to do. Maybe after lunch 🤞🧶

so anyway i’m bringing about FIVE HUNDRED wood dice to #PAXUnplugged so uhhhhhh come to booth 4211 fantastic knickknackery and buy some handmade trinkets!!! all of the art came from my human brain and hands!!!!!!!

It’s not a difficult project, but so far I’ve frogged it back to the start 3 times. If this isn’t the one I’m just going to bed 🧶

Resin works in progress! I’m playing with the idea of making some fidget shaker potions on adjustable cord and/or keychains. Also check out these pretty red and gold potions, trinkets, and mushroom nightlights! Fresh from their molds this afternoon. Now I can crochet and watch my shows ☺️

Trying to fill out a market application form downloaded online and for some reason the form is not fillable. HELLO I’m not about to print, handwrite, and scan that shit back in only to then email it. WILD the unnecessary work I’m having to put into this process… AGH, one line to describe my items

Approximately ZERO people are asking for this. Begging my friends for brick a few times a year over snacks is the right amount of Catan, period.
