"This one looks scary! Let's play it, Link!"
I couldn't sleep last night, so the fun starts early with a bonus.

I had a Princess Tiffany with one of those hats (but teardrops?), and I'm so amused that someone else did the same thing I did, to keep the elastic tight once the stretch gave out. Knot it? No! Simple royal bridle time.

There is really far too much to say about this comic, but I will say this. It drove me to my limits and beyond, but I didn't give in, I took a break and came back stronger. I hope you liked it!

I have something controversial to say: I FUCKING HATE THE GUMMY, STICKY TEXTURE OF VALLEJO PAINT. IT TAKES FUCKING FOREVER TO CURE AND THERE ARE BRUSH STROKES EVERYWHERE. WHY IS IT LIKE THIS? IT'S THICK AND FUNKY. Ugh. UGH. SO GROSS.
Okay. Got that out of my system. (Why am I using it? I had no choice. Tamiya, the brand I swear by, puts a little bit of black in their blue paint, so it's impossible to mix this shade of green.)
*ahem*
Before she's finished - and there's still a long way to go - I'll address the Vah Ruta in the room. I know Yona is a strongly disliked character, especially among sidlink fans.
FIRST: If you're wondering, "Is this the end of ERC's sidlink photos?" No, don't worry. Alongside my usual sidlink photos, there will also be sidona and sidlinkona photos. The same way I've posted zelink and ship-free photos before. I don't dislike any sh- okay, there's ONE notp in my life, but it's not in this fandom.
SECOND: If the reason you hate her is because she gets in the way of your ship.... Try to reexamine her without that lens. Replay the game and take a fresh look at what she does and how she interacts with Link. I think you'll like what you see.

I bound @perpetualcontrolleddrowning's beautiful and heart-wrenching SVSSS fanfic, Dreaming You the Same Sun in a Different Place into a book. One for each of us!
Because it's SVSSS, everything just had to be green. I used scrapbook paper and recycled fabric for the covers, with hand-drawn gold foil lettering and cotton thread for the endbands. I accidentally wrecked one copy while casing in, so I had to start over with all new cover paper. Luckily I have a whole block of stone-textured papers, and there was another one in green. Considering this story is about rebuilding connections in an unfamiliar world, it's kind of fitting after all.
The title font is Love Letter TW. It was super popular among computer nerds in the 90s. It was even used in an anime about people whose consciousness shifts onto the internet when they die. Sounds familiar, right? 😉
The author's copy will go into the mail in a few days, and mine will take its place on my bookshelf. I'm so glad I was able to bind this!

oh my everloving fucking god.
one day, I will hand these photos over to an architect, and tell them "make me this, just as it is."
only change I'd like, is to swap out the tiled counters for a mossy green concrete, tinted quartz, or that composite stuff that's made from old shredded US currency, which would also be a most becoming green amid all the wood. And that's just because I've never been a big fan of tiled counters, but shit, if that meant the difference between having this house or not, I'll survive o_o

Very different 1979 home in San Diego, CA. 4bds, 3ba, 3,613 sq ft. $1.675m.
Tumblr media
The exterior's rough dark wood looks very rustic, so it was surprising to see more contemporary wood, stone, and cement inside. Note the beautiful stained glass front door, too.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Unique fireplace design and a beamed vaulted ceiling in the living room.
Tumblr media
A wall of windows with a view of the private courtyard.
Tumblr media
Here's an interesting feature.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
There's another fireplace in the den. Nice built-in shelving makes a perfect corner for a desk.
Tumblr media
This is quite a large space.

Details of the stained glass in the door.

This room has gorgeous wood walls. I'm wondering if there's a bedroom back there on the right.
Tumblr media
Around the fireplace there's the kitchen and a door to the garden.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Beautiful original wood in the unique kitchen. Looks like a built-in Lazy Susan on the counter.
Tumblr media
Love the curves, especially in the glass doors. Beautiful tile backsplash and counters.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
I don't know why they don't show a bedroom, but they do have this amazingly unique bath. 2 beautiful bowl sinks and what looks like a fireplace feature. The rounded cabinetry is so amazing and everything is so perfectly preserved.
Tumblr media
This bathroom is stunning.
Tumblr media
Isn't this a unique tub and shower? The design is a combination of tile and wood.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
They also featured this curvy bath. The baths in the home are amazing.
Tumblr media
Beautifully landscaped yard. Lot size 10,889 sq ft.

Ran out of steam so this doll is done for now.
She’s a Disney Fairies Fawn head on a curvy MTM.
Made her skirt using @dollsahoy ‘s pencil skirt pattern. Thank you!
Her hair is poly, I think? It’s very fine and frizzes easily. I attempted my first hair cut and it’s uh, not good. But honestly, I’ve seen dolls fresh out of the box with similarly bad cuts so it’s fine.

Want to come to Vincent and Reeve’s Halloween party?  They’ve got cookies, candy, and potions for us to enjoy!   If Vincent has enough to drink, Chaos might make an appearance, too!
