Day 1

In your own space, talk about your Happy Place—the things that give you joy, calms you or keeps you sane. Leave a comment in this post saying you did it. Include a link to your post if you feel comfortable doing so.

So I have been through Some Bullshit since the year started*, and apparently these days I cope with stuff by daydreaming/planning to build furniture with ever increasing details. In this case, I got though: chairs (a set of four), a cat tree, book case(s), a scratch post, a TV bench, a light table and a caket/jewelry box as a gift for a friend.

* I'm fine. It's about as over as gonna get and I have shiny new trust issues to show for it, but whatevs, it's not like I wasn't already a paranoid little monsterfucker anyway


I have also been listening to MCR's entire discography. I keep getting the chorus of Kill all your friends ('Cause we all wanna party when the funeral ends / And we all get together when we bury our friends) stuck in my head.

Given that it's 2019, Danger Days: The True Lives Of The Fabulous Killjoys is on at least once a day. Planetary (GO!) is basically on repeat. Because Fuck You, that's why.


/probably didn't understand the question

I'm interested in the daydreaming about creating furniture. I daydream about creating jewellery. :D
Any specific questions? What kind of jewelry do you daydream about?

[corvidology]

I daydream mostly about crow and raven jewellery which is very difficult to find in forms I love. Too much of it ends up looking like a Third Reich symbol and the rest of it tends to crow skulls rather than crows.

What kind of furniture do you have in mind and for what purpose?

[dhampyresa]

That sounds amazing! (Er, not the Third Reich part, the rest of it.) I wish i could see it.

Right now I most want a drawer box to put pensils in. I bought a 150pencils box of Prismacolours at HUGE discount (like -75%) a while back but the bow they came in is a shite format. So I want to Fix That, by making a new box, with drawers.

Sounds like one of the old Victorian art boxes which are lovely.

[dhampyresa]

I had no idea those were a thing! They are lovely.

[corvidology]

They really and many of them have hidden compartments. You can sometimes find them pretty cheap at flea markets/lower end antiques places.
