How to wear?

Hello, I'm about to join a tablet weaving course after years of wanting to join and I'm super exited to learn a new cool hobby.

The only thing I'm wondering is how ya'll are using your creations? Im already planning on making some bag straps and combining it with crocheted bags, and I saw someone made a super cute wristband as well which I'd love to make for myself! And there is of course belts, but other than that, I'm kinda lost. Granted, I'm far from a fashionista.

That's why I'd love some ideas and recommendations on how to style tablet woven stuff into everyday wear!

Also, been loving seeing everyones creations on here! You all are so talented!

Frill too big

Hello, I'm finally making my own little guy. So far all has been good, but I just finished the frill, held it onto his neck and realized that it is way too big. I followed the pattern religiously, so I was wondering if that is normal or if I did something wrong. I will probably do less chains, but that got me curious if that is common with this pattern.

Upgrade or wait?

Hello, I desperately need advice on whether our household should upgrade or wait and spend the money later.

We got a Roborock S6 for free from a family member at the beginning of the year and I have been in love with him! First time we have a little helper and it's a dream. However, he ain't perfect. I usually send him around several times, both when vacuuming and mopping and I cannot set him up on a schedule since he loves to eat cables.

Here comes my dilemma. There's currently major sales going on and I could get a Roborock Saros 20, a Dreame X60 Ultra or a Dreame L50 Ultra on discount (roughly 40% off on each).

Would you guys spend the money for an upgrade or should we wait? If so, which model will be the best for cost and features?

I've read so many different opinion, some say don't go with the flagships and some say they're worth it at discounted price! Some say the Saros is where it's at and some say the X60 Ultra is where it's at. I've gotten vacuumed up (get it) by all of the advertisements as well! The features on both the Saros and the X60 look insane coming from our old little S6. I am lost and would appreciate any input on this dilemma!

Just wanted to thank the Devs for an amazing game

I just finished playing through Hoenn, or at least what is out currently and I just want to show my gratitude towards the team/devs/people that have worked on this one! It was so much fun to play! Personally, I felt it was way more entertaining and fine tuned than the first one! Hoenn feels so streamline and entertaining, it was truly a blast!

Thank you to everyone who has worked on this, including the people making the sprites! This is gonna be the best game to have ever existed and I cannot wait for more content to come!

Beste butikk for antikk/secondhand smykke

Tar sjansen og spør her, noen som vet om ei god butikk i område som selger antikk/secondhand smykke? Har blitt helt hekta på det i det siste og har funnet en del fine ting på Stas og Fjas, men dem har så å si bare sølv eller udefinerte metaller, så å si ingen gull eller platinum.

I need some outside perspective on my parents, because quite frankly, I'm struggling so much right now. I'd appreciate any feedback from anyone who has the time to read this, thank you!

A little bit of backstory. I've always had a very tight knit relationship with my mom. My biological father abused me and my stepfather was mostly just working. I never had a big family, my mom doesn't have contact with anyone from her family and my bio father didn't either. I only ever had some very distant family via my stepfather (him and my mom are not married, but been together for 25 years).

Im currently 28 years old, renting an apartment with my fiancé and we're both working, granted, neither in our field that we studied in, but working nonetheless. We're getting enough money in to pay all of our bills and even put some to the side for savings. Im currently trying to work myself up to a better position, but it takes time.

Onto the drama. A few days before Christmas, my fiancé and I went to visit my parents (they live 6 hours away from us via bus. We both dont drive, since we live in a bigger European city with very good public transport). We were supposed to be there for Christmas and then we all were supposed to travel back to ours to celebrate New Years together. We had a few nice days together, but then my fiancé got the news that his aunt died right before Christmas eve. He was sad, but he doesn't really show that he's sad, he just kinda becomes a bit more quiet and tries to distract himself (usually with video games). My parents a few days after Christmas flipped shit. They were so mad because they think my fiancé is lazy, he only play video games and doesn't do anything else. Granted, he always cleaned up after himself and offered to help with stuff, he just didn't take initiative to say that we should do stuff. Which is one if the things my parents apparently wanted without communicating.

My mother chose to talk to me about him and then decided to basically shit on the rest of my life. Every choice I've taken, from staying in the city we're at now instead of searching for a job countrywide in my field, to my partner choice (saying that he shares similarities with my bio dad). That talk broke me and I went and cried my soul out. Once my fiancé saw that, he got super pissed off at them and basically went and yelled at them. That ended with a yelling match where him and I decided to leave ( whilst I got an ultimatum thrown at me, him or them).

Since then, my mother has said that she's sorry to me and that she didn't mean it that way and anything she said wasn't meant that way. However, they have not talked with my fiancé.

A few months later I had a screaming match with her, because they're basically blaming everything on my fiancé and expected him to go to them and say sorry. I told her we all have to sit down and talk. But, since him and I are busy (and by that time, he lost another family member) we haven't had the chance to have that talk yet.

Yesterday, I told my mother that we both will have a week off in mai and that we all should meet to talk. Didn't get a real answer from her. Today, she calls me, asks if I'm working (I wasn't) and tells me my stepfather wants to talk to me. He then proceeds to tell me that they both want to have a talk, but just with me.

That sent me, I spiraled. I tried to tell them that my fiancé is just as much family as the rest, but no, they only want to talk to me first. Ideally, at their place. Now, call me a pussy or whatever, but I'm just not comfortable to be at their place after everything that happened. I tried to tell them that but they pushed back.

What I need help with is gauging if my fiancé and I really am screwing up our lives, if "their worries" or whatever they tried to tell us, are granted or if we're fine, if we're normal, living adults. His parents don't say that we are, but like I said, I only ever had my mom and my stepfather in my life, so hearing anything from their mouths has me spiralling. I've never been able to set boundaries with them, and it's been very hard to stand up for myself and my fiancé. He has been my rock and supporting me and telling me any decision I take, he supports me. I was happy in my life, I lived somewhere where I want to be, I found my soul mate and I have a job that I like a lot! Is that not enough? Sure, the only dream I have is to own my own home, and my partner and I will in the future, but other than that, I was happy. I dont need a career in what I studied, I just wanna be able to wake up and be exited to go to work, even if some would consider that work to be "below my level". Im sorry, I'm spiralling here at the end.

I appreciate any input and I'm more than happy to answer any questions. And again, thank you kind souls that have and take the time to read this!
