upcycle complete fail 😭

I hope this is a warning for anyone wanting to make reusable cloths for tissues, makeup remover, etc….pinking shears do nothing if those suckers go in the wash. hem those things!!!! please!!!! unfortunately these little guys have reached the end of upcycle lifecycle for fabric and are about to become stuffing for a pillow. I’m still gonna keep trying to upcycle fabric stuff into everyday use but now I now I guess

edit: I know how to sew I swear!!! I just kind of learned by myself years ago with input from family every now and then haha. so there’s a few things I missed. the squares were far to small to hem after I cut them (mismeasured and thought this was a clever workaround 😅)like I swear I’ve made capes and pants and skirts with no pattern…just kind of an idiot sometimes! lol anyways I’m making them into bunting flags

first strawberry matcha :D

I finally made one after experimenting with matcha ratios for like a month now! ngl I do not taste the strawberries at all that’s like 4 whole berries that I cooked down and put in there but oh well! gettin my fruits in I suppose 😂 I know my matcha is a little bit light but its on purpose I swear!! I have some caffeine sensitivity so I can’t make it as strong as I want to 😔

new order back patch :-)

Hi everybody hope this is chill and stuff but here’s my jacket I’ve been working on. I started with the easiest patches to make and since new order is the big one I thought I would show on this sub. It’s silly and cringe and I look like a dork wearing it but I don’t really care I love music so much and wanna rep it!! this is probably only 30% completion though so if anyone has any suggestions or thoughts lemme know. also for the second pic I know neither are new wave at all im just proud of the Bauhaus one that took forever to paint right haha

how should I test new perfumes?

hi everyone!! newbie to niche perfumes here. I just got my first sample pack from a perfumery I’ve seen a few times on here and elsewhere (cirrus perfumes). The bottles are 2ml which I assume is about 20 sprays? I know everything smells different on skin but should I spray them on some paper beforehand? I’ve worked the perfume counter at work before so I know about top notes and that the scents settle differently and all the regular perfume things but I think with the niche ones there’s none of the top note stuff and it’s more an experience? should I try it on my wrist or hand first? I'm also asking cause I’m just so excited I wanna smell them all but I don’t know if smelling on paper would be a waste of the itty bitty 2ml (ᵕ- ᴗ -)

new car is grey and dark, how can I make frutiger aero vibes

I got a vw taos, I love it! but it is very grey outside and very dark on the inside. I have the light grey seats but the rest of it is dark grey wihth navy blue trim. My last car was very white inside and I really loved it cause I decorated the inside more Frutiger aero with little bitsand bobs here and there. Any ideas on how I could make my car feel more Frutiger aero or just give up haha. Sorry if this is a dumb post or question I lterally just woke up and didn’t wanna forget about tgis 😅😁🫧🍃

Wonderland of the Americas - San Antonio, Texas

Looks a lot sadder than it is. tons of weird little shops (like 5-6 monster/horror shops) and hosts creative stalls. location for most local conventions due to the emptiness. Didn't get pictures but there is also a dine in theatre, I think it's for live performances too! they flipped themselves from an upscale tenant, dying mall to basically an indoor shopping strip and community center, which has kept it alive.
