Yeah... I had a breakdown today, I was waiting for SOMETHING to go wrong
Stupid tubing I used for my necklace, I used gold model paint. It wasn't bonding cause the tubing had a waxy coating, even though I sanded it off. It started to dry a bit as I put it in front of a fan for a couple days in hopes that would work- my dad, trying to help, puts it on a rack in the HOT dryer. HOT air DOES NOT mix with TOXIC paint that will not set!!! D< I ran to the dryer, pulled it out, and started bursting out in tears.
Luckily Lowe's had tubing but a smaller size, the same material of my belt (so the paint will bond) and I was able to find the wooden balls I needed (FINALLY) after a five day wait for Michale's, only for them to not get it in, then a two day search at other places.
The Ranma costume I'm lending to my friend now, has been boched with bleach. So now we have to find the right colored dye, Dye it, wash it, dry it, sew the white cuffs and buttons back on.... -____-
