Otherwise you have to spend four hours gently scraping each and every piece to remove the sticky undried substance and you&#8217;ll have to throw away half your pieces anyway. Not fun. But I bounced back (I&#8217;m a bouncer!) and made a festive array of new pieces using a different sealing technique which works and hooray, now I have that nice big pile of jewelry done. Going up in the store shortly.<\/p>\n<p>So, pertaining to my apartment-buying, I went to Ikea last weekend for the first time. WHY DID NO ONE TELL ME OF THIS EXQUISITE PLACE? I actively don&#8217;t like shopping, but I was happy there and shopped with a smile on my face. I bought a whole dinner set and some succulents and cactii and glasses, oh, so terrific. They have toys and one of their toys is a stuffed pillbug. How marvelous (or marve-louse, if you&#8217;d prefer. Har har! Bug humor! Never gets old.)<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/design-newyork.com.fwtrading.x10host.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/pillbug.jpg\" title=\"pillbug.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/design-newyork.com.fwtrading.x10host.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/12\/pillbug.thumbnail.jpg\" alt=\"pillbug.jpg\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>Now, until I saw this picture I didn&#8217;t know its mouth unzips and you can store things in him. This pillbug just gets better the more you know about him. Also, you can get a fountain drink for a dollar. A dollar! And the fountain drink cup is a decent size! You can&#8217;t get anything, anywhere for a dollar. I just pottered around looking at light fixtures drinking lingonberry juice for five hours. I highly recommend the experience.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>See? See? I&#8217;m still making jewelry. There it is. Gaze at it.
