Red and the Wolf Designs

drives me crazy when he does everything last minute and acts like we have all the time in the world, when we need to catch a train. He's way too calm about travelling to the point of not caring if we have to wait an hour for the next possible train

We're going away for a few days to visit family and I'm done before I'm at the train station... My partner now, about 20 mins before we leave, remembers to pack toiletries and was surprised that mine are already packed and safely in my suitcase since last night. No, he isn't dressed yet either...

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

Two women (80s?) are basking in a sunbeam in front of a cafe. Paperback books on their table. A pot of tea between them.
One says: "Do you do the Facebook?
The other wrinkles her nose and shrugs: "No. It's not my lifestyle. I like real books." (1)

7 fidget pendants with single gemstone beads and silver wirework. Dark blue sparkly, blue and green, brown, black and grey, pink, dark red, orange.

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A small human (4?) belts into a library, her dinosaur school bag clutched to her chest. She reaches a librarian and breathlessly announces: "Hey. Uhm. Yeah. Uhm. Did I tell you? WE HAVE A NEW KITTEN!"
Librarian looks VERY impressed. (1)

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A small human (5?) is standing in line at a checkout with his mum. He says: "I'm grumpy Mum."

Mum puts an arm around his shoulders. "Would a banana help?"

He nods, scowling: "Yeah. I might need two. I'm REALLY grumpy."(1)

A grey resin cat figurine in shimmery grey with black stripes. It sits on a dark wooden surface

Two small resin cat figurines on a grey background. The left one is clear on top, red with glitter on the bottom and in the tail. In between is red and white alcohol ink in petri effect. The one on the right is almost black, but with very fine holographic glitter on the surface that adds a rainbow shine to it

This cute grey and black resin cat sold to my partner's coworker before I could even take proper pictures of it.

Although I made more in different styles, coming to my store soon

I can imagine. As mothers we would move mountains for our children if necessary. Glad you all seem to have come through it mostly fine, now you can rest and recover

OMG, that sounds so stressful. Glad to hear your child has found housing and things are calming down.

Random 1am question: anyone know a source for bulk water beads (to make cooling scarves) (that still exists) (that isn’t amazon)? The spots we bought them in bulk 3-4 years ago are gone now and I’ve spent MANY HOURS digging around and am finally planning on giving up and testing ones from amazon 😭😭😭

🧵Spotted While Roaming in Aotearoa New Zealand:

A couple (70s?) walk into a steampunk cafe and are delighted by all the ephemera on the walls.
One says to the other: "Could you imagine wearing this?!"
The other says: "Yeah. I could actually, it'd be fun. I'd be a steampunk man." He grins. (1)

Day 2,981. Pendants still not listing themselves.

(Putting this here so I *have* to list them now. Please bear with me, and watch this space.)

girl full offense but if you are seeing anyone's genitals in the bathroom at any point you have fucked up. i've spent 30 years using women's restrooms and i have never in my life seen anyone's junk except my own

mine arrived today and made my day a whole lot better. Wore one all afternoon but probably should take it off before bed. Don't want to accidentally break it over night

This week, we are fundraising with the Mocos for @stjuderesearch.bsky.social ! come give us a watch on twitch for some cool incentives and milestones! twitch.tv/yarnypixie

Several beaded bracelets and charms are spread out on a knit fabric in a grey to purple gradient with a lace pattern. The bracelets are made from colourful beads and letter ones. First one is light blue with "I love these jeans", next is black with two yellow and two red beads and "scowly face", last is purple white and grey with "not bloody optimal". There is also a blue/gold translucent mermaid tail charm and a beaded lightblue and brown charm with a bronze toned swallow

Thank you so much @kaddele.bsky.social for my wonderful bracelets and charms. They made me smile today and I immediately after taking pic put the "Not bloody optimal" one on because it matches my outfit.

A tiny new human is strapped in a sling, cosy against Dad's burly chest. Someone says something that makes Dad's whole body shake with laughter, triggering Tiny Human chortles and shrieks of glee. This ride is FUN. (1)
