Romantic Winter Collection

Brand new collection of handmade jewelry now aviable

[sailorzeo]

I’ve been patiently waiting for a nice second-hand wood dresser to appear on fb marketplace or at Goodwill for months. Finally, I grabbed this one yesterday for $50.

My inspiration for this project are some dressers I saw at Anthropology that have gorgeous carved details. But I want my dresser to cost $200 or less rather than $2,000.

Of course I can’t add actual hand-carved wood, but I’ve got clay and some silicon molds + epoxy and a potential overconfidence in my DIY abilities.

First up, I removed the existing hardware and sanded this pretty lady down. She is now looking MUCH better without all those terrible stains (and the drawer pulls weren’t doing it for her, tbh).

Up next, I’ll give her a paint wash or three and start trying my hand at faking some carvings!

We are still going through The Horrors. We're now on month three of my husband being unemployed. He is doing everything in his power to find a job, but...no luck thus far. I'm disabled and can't work. My beloved cat SpyBoy has been very ill. He has diabetes that we are still trying to get under control. We finally have all of the vet bills up to date, but Spy Guy is going to have to have another overnight visit next month for monitoring, to see if his insulin needs to be adjusted. The mortgage is due on the first, along with some other bills. I have no idea how to pay for any of this. We have a gofundme: https://www.gofundme.com/f/save-spy-boy-urgent-medical-funds-needed SpyBoy has a wishlist for food and needed supplies: https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/BK56PZUL2A76?ref_=wl_share I'm selling my signed, rare, and collectible books: https://www.ebay.com/usr/gwynpins I am a published poet.

I can’t draw very well and hated that I couldn’t draw my DnD character, a tabaxi cleric named Merry Thing, but then I remembered I’m pretty good with a needle and thread so I made her

All made by hand, hand embroidered details, and I even crocheted the lace trim on her shift!

I had taken an informal short video showing how I do "The Rapunzel Curls" on ponies

(ugh, tinsel...)

but never properly posted it and lost it.

People have said to me this looks just like factory curl, but if you look, I tend to reverse the direction of the factory curl when doing this. That's just how my hands want to do it, if you can do the twist in the opposite direction, you'll be closer replicating the factory curl.

The twist at the beginning is the key.

I don't do videos so it's rough, but here is another attempt.

Do you like my pajamas?

What you need:

+ Plastic straws - These are milkshake straws which are larger and thicker than regular drinking straws. I use boba straws for larger curls. I don't worry about plastic waste in this case because I will reuse the same straws for decades.

You want to cut the straws to an appropriate length (orange in the video - this one is a little too long for the hair I'm working on, but it's fine), then cut shorter segments and slice those long way once to make a little cap (purple).

+ Pipe cleaners (green), small hair clips, bobby pins, etc.

+ A source of heat (will elaborate later), or time.

I will add extra spaces to make it easier to read.

Comb the hair. It should be as smooth as you can get it. I'm using a flea comb, here.

Lay the ends across the long straw a little way up the hair.

Snap the cap straw on top.

Holding the sides of the hair so it doesn't spread out in the cap straw, slide both straws to the ends of the hair until the ends are completely under the cap straw.

Roll the straw a little bit, making sure the ends are secured.

Give the whole straw set up a little twist around the hair.

Roll to the scalp firmly.

Put one end of the pipe cleaner into the straw, and wrap it around as shown.

After that you can either leave the hair alone for a couple weeks and if it's nylon, it will take that shape.

Or you can apply heat.

I usually put the whole pony/doll head into a plastic baggie (I taught Froggy about that!) put the baggie into a large cup or bowl, and fill the cup/bowl with boiling hot water right off the electric kettle. MAKE SURE the open end of the bag doesn't get down into the water so the doll/pony doesn't get wet. I lay it over the lip of the cup/bowl. Throw a towel over top to help trap the heat and then don't touch it until the water has cooled on it's own.

You absolutely can apply boiling water directly to the hair, but I don't do that for a couple reasons.

You have to wait for the hair to dry all the way through before you can do anything with it which can take a few days depending on the weather and I'm not that patient.

Pipe cleaners and bobby pins can rust.

Then you can unroll the curlers immediately or leave them in the hair for a few days and get an even more defined curl. The longer you leave the curlers in, the better the hair takes their shape.
