Chaotic Daydreams "Your reality, sir, is lies and balderdash and I am delighted to say I have no grasp of it whatsoever."

As a disabled, GenX, stay-at-home mom with AuDHD, I needed something to keep me busy and creative. Crochet came first, but lately resin has been my new hyperfocus. I take utter delight in making unique items for people as well as just letting my imagination go wild.

*thud* I am pooped! Of course it had to be the two hottest days of the last couple months that I had to do inventory and display setup. It's 82 degrees in my house. πŸ˜…

HOWEVER! All of my inventory (spreadsheet, pricing, etc.) paperwork is done! The majority of my display for the booth on Saturday is done! I just couldn't arrange the blankets since those are going to be hanging from the support poles of the canopy with clothespins so there was no point in dragging them out of the bags today. πŸ™ƒ

Very very grateful that the weather this weekend is supposed to be back down to the 70s otherwise you'd be greeting a puddle on the asphalt if you came by my booth. πŸ˜‚

Anyway! So if you're not doing anything Saturday, September 12th, from 10am to 2pm, stop by the Tractor Supply in Nipomo ( https://tinyurl.com/y7mnper3 ) and say hello! Maybe even take a pretty thing home for yourself or someone else. πŸ’–

Here we go again. πŸ˜‚
I have new display equipment this time so I have to rethink everything from last time.
I also have new inventory that has to be logged and priced.
I'm just glad I got it hauled up from the workshop before 10am cuz it's already 75 outside and supposed to get up to 90 today. πŸ”₯ 🫠

After a last-minute confirmation, I'm happy to say I'll be setting up a booth at the Nipomo Tractor Supply's Harvest Fest from 10am to 2pm on September 12, 2026! πŸ₯³

Come on out and say HI, and/or take home one of the items I've been having way too much fun making for months now. 😁

Ok. Now that my new water feature is done, I can head down to the workshop and actually use resin for the first time in almost two weeks. ☺️
Ain't hyper focus great?!

I have to admit, tho, this is artistic and I love it more than the pond I had before. It'll be easier to take care of, too. Yay!

Now to go find buttons and fabric and wire, oh my!

The molds I made weren't perfect, but that's what grinding, sanding, and polishing are for, right? 😁Tell you what, tho. ...

The molds I made weren't perfect, but that's what grinding, sanding, and polishing are for, right? 😁

Tell you what, tho. After figuring out how much material and work it takes to make a base, it's going to be an expensive add on for my chess boards. Cuz holy cow. I'm not going to make one of these for every board or I'd go broke waiting for them to sell. Heh.

Can't wait until it's all done and I see it together with the starry board my client bought. 🀞😍

Finished product is adorable! Next time, tho, I think I need to stick to solid colored skulls cuz the glitter and sequins settled so the clear part by the eyes and nose kinda get lost in the clear holding layer.

Other than that, tho, I love the combo! And since I use the little skull molds for any extra resin after a pour, I have lots to work with! πŸ₯°πŸ₯³

I may or may not been having fun with glitter the last few days. πŸ˜‡πŸ˜

I absolutely love how the curio shelf and the Pride heart turned out. And once I get the white base on the skull tray, it's gonna be awesome, too!

I just love that the mini skulls work perfectly in the "bubbles" of the border. ❣️

There might or might not have been a glittersplosion here today. I plead the 5th. πŸ˜‡

Oh! And I teased the other day with my rearranging. Here's the finished result!

The white cabinets hold my resin, the stacks with the transparent doors hold my inventory for sales, and everything else finally has a place that makes sense.

I'm so happy with it! And such a gorgeous California beach sky outside my window. πŸ’•
