(WIP) I’ve been worrying a lot lately about the rise in transphobia, so I suppose this is vent art. A cis centaur offers a trans centaur a flower crown to welcome her bc we could all use something gentle and accepting right now more than ever. I hope to finish this soon, I love the dreamy color palette I’ve chosen for this!

The pins are IN and the supervisor is checking for quality control (don’t worry, she only checked my personal set 🤣)

Fulfillment will begin soon!!!

After only owning nearly-dead fb marketplace couches for years, we finally got an actual brand-new couch!! It’s SO comfy and the ottoman top flips over to make a gaming table with cup holders as well! It’s been nice to have so much room to spread out, and I’m proud of us for getting it!

I’m so happy to have some new ink for one of my favorite things in the whole world - it turned out even better than I dreamed!! (Check bottom pics for me trying to get a pic in the natural light but Pippa thinking I’m trying to pet her 🥲)

when you’re a gay homeowner, you can turn your boring staircase into a pastel rainbow statement piece

Very important daughter update

So we have to refinish our deck as the final part of our escrow repairs that need done, which meant tackling The Grape Vine, a massive grape vine that was fully twined around about 3/4 of the deck. I didn’t want to completely get rid of it bc I think it’s very cute and also I love grapes & grape leaves, so I cut it way back and twined it around this arbor instead! Best of both worlds - I get my grapes, and we have use of the full deck now 🤣

I wish I had more before & after pics of the yard, because we’ve done just a MASSIVE amount of work this summer getting it back in shape. Where you can see my little raised garden is now, it was a huge patch of incredibly tall grass & weeds, there was the grape vine situation, back by the garage where the raspberries are was literally just a completely overgrown snarl of spiky branches, the trees had completely taken over the deck as well as parts of the yard, and the front flower bed had become completely covered by grass & weeds. We have pruned, pulled, turned, mulched, and planted so much of this yard! I’m so proud of our progress, and I’m excited to do more landscaping next year now that the yard is back to a manageable condition. Everything (including me) has room to breathe now, and I find it very relaxing to do yard work! I’ll be sure to post more pics once we get the deck refinished, because that’ll be a MAJOR glowup.
