    Oh. :D I ... might have slipped and bought seven hanks of floss; do feel free to use any colors that sound fun, and not the specific ones on the Etsy.

    I've been playing with embroidery designs, and pretty fibers are my weakness. I have pokemon and dragons and sigils to design. >>;

    I am not a jewelry dude, but would like to help your lizard! Are you accepting donations? How bad is the vet tab?

    They're actually fossilised teeth, too, so cruelty-free! If I ever get enough sales to start making any kind of profit, then I'm thinking of putting some of those bits towards shark conservation :3

    Ahhh yes maybe >///< The vet tab is around £130 ($165 USD) but even if you could spare like a dollar it would help ^^;;; (PM me for details?) THANKYOU :D

    So, I'm not really comfortable charging real money for most of the stuff I do, mostly because I'm trash at all of it BUT I would love to trade stuff (Or, I mean, I'd take real money, but more like on a donation system?)
    I also require extrinsic motivation to Do The Thing. AKA plz tell me to do stuff because how do I motivation?


    ANYWAY.

    • Chainmaille
      • Mostly aluminium because it's cheap and fairly forgiving, also easier on the hands than other metals
    • Knitting
      • I'm actually not very good at this. I know the basics, and have successfully made arm-warmers, hats, scarves, and a ton of dishcloths, but it's basically just a "keep my hands busy" kind of hobby. But I have oodles of yarn and would like to actually do something with it instead of just petting it with my face all the time.
    • Cross Stitch
      • also a "keep my hands busy" hobby, although I'm better at this than I am at knitting, mostly because I've done it longer.
    • Grammar and spell checking on fiction or college level writing. I can provide writing samples of both.
    • Conlang creation
      • Could range from a simple naming language to a language that is sufficient for simple conversations.

    (I can provide credentials/examples upon request.)
    • Powershell scripting.
      • Data manipulation
      • Task automation
    • Small to medium sized enterprise support
      • Windows
        • Building a system
        • breakfix/troubleshooting
      • Linux:
        • Building a system
        • Securing a system
        • Setting up a webserver (LAMP stack)
        • Breakfix/troubleshooting
      • General environment setup/layout advice

    I need someone to buy my stuff because I can't see the point in making things any more because obviously all of it sucks :/

    Is there anyone here who can do 3d figurine commissions of real people from pictures? I'm going to need one of those eventually.

    Hi all, I do stuffed animal commissions! Mostly for pokemon, but i will totally do other stuff to as long as you have good reference pics! This isnt for anything dire, but i would like to start saving up to move out while i continue to look for a job in town. Prices are based on materials + shipping + $10 per estimated hour.

    Hey y'all - I am looking to sell a couple of my cross-stitch pieces, specifically the Mass Effect ones:

    [​IMG] [​IMG] [​IMG]

    They could easily all go in a frame together, in a lovely spectrum of morality, but they would also be nice on their own.

    They are currently unbacked and unframed; I could frame one or more of them for you and ship them, or I could put iron-on backing onto them, or I could ship them as-is and you could do whatever you like with them. I'm asking $15 for each of them separately, $25 for two of them, and $30 for all three - and if you want them framed, that's $5 extra for a single or $10 extra for two or three together. Iron-on backing I'll add at no cost. Obviously shipping will be higher if they are framed - probably $10-15 to the States, not sure about anywhere else. If they are not framed I would imagine shipping would be no higher than $5 (and that's a high guess).

    Let me know if you are interested! I can ship them out as early as next week, depending on whether you want them framed (I'd need to go find a good one).

    Looks like we're going to need to fix our car again, so if anyone would like some mini book jewelry, crocheted silver, or cute wool hair extensions I'm going to be offering a 15% discount in my shop with the code CARHELP through the end of July

    What I've got in the shop includes these pride wing earrings in crocheted sterling silver
    il_570xN.550956932_9ab8.jpg
    and this book pendant with Shakespeare's gayest sonnet (sonnet 20) written in it
    il_570xN.670319357_fqc8.jpg il_570xN.670193530_8l8b.jpg

    I also love doing custom work, so I'd be happy to put your favorite poem in a book for you or get just the right color dye brewed up for extensions!

    A heads-up: we're listing knitting that didn't sell at the festival as ready-to-ship items in our Etsy store, so if you like relatively more instant gratification in your shopping experience, check out the new stuff :) There's a shop link in my signature, but if you can't see it lmk and I'll get it to you when I'm not on mobile.
