Hi everyone! I recently tried making jewelry, and I just fell in love with it! It's quite intricate and challenging (at least for me as a beginner), but really relaxing and rewarding, too. I found so many cool designs and now I can't wait to bring them to life. I'm also obsessed with buying new beads and supplies for necklaces, I don't even have enough time to use them all yet lol

For me, it all started with this guide from Peaktakes, just helped me organize what tools I needed and how to use them correctly, but then I just checked designs and tutorials on Pinterest, and it all was quite easy. The only downside is that my fingers hurt from making loops out of metal haha

If you're also into jewlery making, show me your creations and tell me how long you've been doing it!

Hi! I'm really interested in drone photography/videography, and I'd like to try it for myself. I don't have a lot of money, so I can't really afford famous brands, especially considering I might not be good at it.

So my question is, how important is it to get a professional drone from a big brand if you're just starting out? Should I then wait and save up or try something cheaper?

I've checked a couple of options and there are some budget drones that look quite good. For example, this drone from Imperatia has 8K camera, long flight time and is under $200. Should I go for it even though it's brandless?

Hi! I have rather straight eyelashes, and it makes applying mascara a pain. I've been using regular eyelash curlers ever since I started doing my makeup, but it is honestly my least favorite part of doing makeup. I just hate the fact that I'm pinching my eyelashes, it gives me some weird sensory reaction. Plus, the curl doesn't hold for that long.

I've been looking for some alternatives and came across heated curlers. Most of them function the same way as regular curlers, so I don't want to try that. But this one from Perfere doesn't require pinching, and it looks way more convenient to use.

The only thing I'm not certain so far is how effective it can be. Since there is no pinching/pressure involved, will a curl even be noticeable? And just in general, do curls made with heated curlers stay longer than regular? If you've used this type of curlers, or just any heated curler, please share your experience.

Hi! I spend a lot of time at the desk and I'm never comfortable sitting. I've tried different kids of chairs, but I still can't sit in them for long. I always bring one or even both of my knees up, I tuck them under, sit in all kinds of poses, but can't get comfortable for long.

I've spotted this chair on vesperes.com - it's said it's an orthopedic stool for spinal health, and I'm thinking of trying it. It looks like it will make it impossible for me to sit improperly, but I'm not sure it will be comfortable on the long run. I don't usually rest my back while at the desk and I tend to lean forward, so those knee support cushions will definitely be useful, but then again - it is possible to sit in this position for long? Can it really improve spinal health? Because to be honest, my back is killing me at the end of the day.

If you have any other seating suggestions, please share, I don't know how else to work like this. I tried working standing, but that's even more inconvenient, so please don't suggest standing desks.

Hi everyone! I recently got a splash guard for my sink and I love it so much! For some reason I didn't even know they existed until like 2 weeks ago, but it's an absolute game-changer. I don't have a dishwasher, so I have to do the dishes manually, and I was so tired of the constant puddles around the sink and wet t-shirts. So I would definitely recommend getting some for your sinks as well!

If anyone's curious, here's the link to where I got mine from, it's quite cheap but sturdy!

Hi! I need to get a new faucet for my kitchen and was thinking about trying one with a retractable hose. It looks very convenient, especially since I don't have a dishwasher and doing the dishes is a pain. What I'm worried about is whether this mechanism deteriorates with time? Does the hose get loose and start detaching with time or I shouldn't expect such issue?

In the description of this faucet they mention magnetic suction design, so I imagine it shouldn't lose its retractable qualities with time, right?

If you have a faucet like this, please share your experience with it overtime and tell me if it's worth the investment!

Hi! I own a Nintendo Switch and a gaming laptop and I'm thinking about getting a controller that can be used on both. I used to get by with joy-cons and regular keyboard+mouse combo, but I tried a PS controller at my friend's and it was way more convenient. I am now thinking of killing two birds with one stone and getting a normal controller that could work on everything (I found a couple of good options, like this one on Esperanze that works on Switch, PC and mobile). However, I'm worried that it might not perform as well as Nintendo's own controller would, for example. But at the same time, I've heard that Switch controllers don't work well on PC, so I don't even know which option would be better.

If you use an off-brand controller (especially for Switch), please share your experience. Does it lag, does it connect easily, do you use it with other devices?
