I bought a yo-yo thinking I was going to learn some cool yo-yo tricks. I did not.

The Weekly Wrap Up is posted! I also added 2 new cross stitch pattern links and 2 new personal site links to the Cats page and I added 2 new cross stitch related links to the Cross Stitch page as well as a photo of a project I finished months ago but just realized I had never added.

Aww, thanks! That cat lava lamp was super fun! I usually don't stitch the same pattern more than once but I think it would be fun to do it in some other color schemes.

It hasn't been quite 24 hours since I last updated so it won't show up as a new entry on the feed but there's a new blog post, The Brown Eyes. https://divergentrays.com/blog/posts/2026-08-22-The-Brown-Eyes

It's a funky one but I have a weakness for animal themed jewelry. Are you interested in brooches at all? Like those showy bejeweled ones? I got into wearing them recently and always look for them in thrift stores.

@luckyinstar - you had me at showy and bejeweled! I am interested in anything sparkly, bonus points if it's unusual. Have you had a lot of luck thrifting brooches?

This one is so pretty! I end up loving so many tiaras you post but something about the level of detail in this one is standing out to me 🥺. Also I love that you share these finds thank you so much! They're such a treat and inspiring design wise

@floral-tears, I'm always so excited when someone else lets me know that they love the tiaras, too! With this one, it amazes me to think that each tiny leaf (and look how many there are!) was created separately. Such a lot of work went into that piece.

My daughter would be ALL OVER those dino corn cob holders! They would actually go super well with her dachshund hot dog cutter ^_^ I'm sending you my very best vibes for Thursday to go well for you.
Thanks for the good vibes!
