Damn, that is crazy shipping! I think here, international depends on size and weight of the package and how far it is being sent. But I haven't shipped internationally in many years.
|
Yeah, they don't really have an option for large envelope. It's either regular (aka thin) letter envelope or small package. And bigger packages get so friggin' expensive you can almost buy a plane ticket and deliver the darn thing yourself.
(I'm exaggerating. But not much.) |
My cold is lessening! I am getting better daily! HUZZAH!
And I built a thing to hang paintings on as a sales disply aaaaand it's too big for my car by about an inch and I can't resize it. Crap. Also it's been rainy the last 2 days so I am not sure of I can make a new one or not since I have to work in the yard cuz the garage is full. -weeping- This is the thing next to my car: https://i.imgur.com/DjcuPZkl.jpg |
Possibly dumb question, but would it be possible to cut (or power sand) it to fit by taking 1/2 an inch off either side/end?
|
Not a dumb question, but with the wire sandwiched between the wood slats that make the frame going all the way to the edge I would need metal cutting blades I don't have, and might end up with sharp bits on the edges.
|
Ah. That makes sense.
|
So now I need to cut the wire narrower then three feet and remake the frame with the 4-ish feet of wire I have left somehow. xD
Edit: Or ya know buy a 300 dollar roof rack and strap the display I made to that.... Edit2: Also ordered a paypal card reader thingy that will hopefully arrive by Friday so we can take cards. xD |
Oh that's incredibly frustrating... We sort of had that same issue with the stupid tent I made... that I still need to show you guys.
I still don't understand how roof racks can be so darn expensive to be honest... |
Tent show it off! Also wish I could diy a roof rack. XD
Forecast says sunny days starting Wednesday! I may be able to pull the second build off after all! Edit: Second frame done and fits in my car! Funnily enough we loaded the car today and decided not to unload it and reload tomorrow... this was supposed to be a "see what fits" test run that turned into "screw it leave it all in there" Now I need to figure out how to label my paintings with prices. xnx |
"I did more paint pours!"

Good colors Derpy! Keep it up!
Also some pics of my booth on the 13th I sold one 25 dollar painting at the event. xD |
"Those are pwetty! How do I make mine that pwetty?"
|
They're cool, Damies! I love how the effects make them look wild, yet the colors show harmony.
|
Sorry for massive picture, I don't feel like reuploading it so I'm not gonna resize it. The site was incredibly dusty and windy, so it is filthy.
The second pic is our full camp set up with our friends. The heraldry banners are theirs. We haven't got our arms figured out yet... we JUST got our award of arms a couple months ago. |
"I did more arts! But Kadwein needs to help take picsurs of them now!"
https://i.postimg.cc/kGk8FPXT/IMG-20...122119-922.jpg |
Nice tent, Mekatra. I also like the heraldry banners even though they aren't yours. Do you already have a vague idea what you want for arms?
That's some pretty cool art, Derpy. |
I'm leaning toward a spider of some kind since I really like weaving and spinning.
|
Awesome idea! Personally I love when there is a hidden meaning behind it, and not just "let's take _____ because it looks friggin' cool"
|
My SCA-sona is a middle-class Viking woman. I'm saving up to get all the stuff to make my outfit and sundries.
|
Sounds interesting. Do you have any pictures?
I've always been a fan of the SCA and similar groups, but usually they meet far away and so I just admire from a distance. |
Hey my persona is viking-age too. I'm Lady Sigriðr Flossidottir from 900ish AD Iceland.
I don't know what kind of fabric you're planning on using for your garb, but if you need linen about the best prices are from the totally not sketchily named (but actually legit) https://fabrics-store.com/ Their color selections are amazing and the quality of linen is pretty great. Linen is expensive, but the stuff lasts half of forever and is period appropriate. For beads and whatnot I tend to lean toward estate sales or buying from/bartering with fellow SCAdians. If you need any kind of viking age brooches or cloak pins or whatever https://www.etsy.com/shop/irenedavis1 is a Laurel and all her stuff is either designed or cast off of actual artifacts. Sorry... I got excited... |
No need to apologize, it's a pleasure to see people get excited about their hobbies in here ^^
|
I really should be working on my calligraphy. My kingdom has a HUGE backlog of award scrolls and I really want to help with that somehow, so I am learning illumination and calligraphy, but it is slow going. I am not very artistically talented when it comes to painting or drawing.
|
Wait did the nox event start already? I just assumed it hadn't bc I didn't have any candies but I guess I haven't been posting either...
|
yep, it's started. i also sent you an unbundled bundle to start you off!
|
Trys T-T
|
you're quite welcome =)
|
So I'm reading through all the games and realizing I have no idea how to play most of them lol. I'm getting too out of touch with forum games T-T
|
*buys yarn for monthly theme* That counts, right? 8D
|
It definitely counts. *serious nod*
I scored an accidental theme ^^ didn't even notice it matches, because I made it for a different challenge. But here's some pumpkin pie that's traditionally served during harvest season: https://i.imgur.com/2DxNlSc.jpg |
Not gonna lie, before I noticed the brown crust, I initially thought it looked like a slice of watermelon...
XD But I can see it as pie too. And I mean...my yarn is orange...and called Spice. So, pumpkin spice? XD But no. IF I still have the pattern for it on my ipad and IF I can find my charger, there is a slim chance I can still finish the project before Wed. |
ooh, cool pie, Death!
also, i got pumpkin yarn sometime this month.... i'm making an ami fox for the daughter of one of my cousins' for the hollydays |
"PIE! KADEWIN! MAKE PIE! I WANT PIE!" Derpy attempts to eat the faux pie.
|
Does cosplay count? https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachmen...F6733A42-1.jpg
|
Derpy tugs at your skirt and whispers, "what's your cospway? I don't wecognize it..."
|
I was a "Holoform" of Ravage from Transformers. Specifically, the one Beast Wars episode he was in. I got to run around, talking in a Russian accent.
|
"Oh. I don't know Twansformers..."
|
I am unfamiliar with the character too, but cosplay is always an A+
|
I'm basically a massive Transformers nerd, to the point that I have one tattooed on my leg, with plans to get more tattooed on me in various places... ^_^;;
|
"Kadwein! We need to watch Twansformers!"
