Customs / Boiling hair, restoring, etc page--where is it? FOUND IT
« on: October 16, 2013, 05:05:05 AM »
I swear, yesterday, I was reading a page on here (can't remember how I got to it) that had information on different techniques for 'restoring' ponies. I got my daughter a box of ponies and accessories off craigslist, and wanted to work with some of their manes so they aren't a big fuzzball or tangled mess.

The page I'm looking for had an index along the top and bottom of the page that read, in a line, symbols, hair, body, etc. there was a pretty large banner across the top...and I remember pink (but not the archived forum pink).

I can't find it, and Google search and the forum search are not helping :/ I've had a bit of a head cold this week, so maybe I'm dreaming this LOL any help would be much appreciated!

ETA: I found it!! It was from the day before yesterday  :huh: I must have clicked someone's link or siggy to go to the MLP preservation project. *awesome* info, if anyone is looking! Thank you everyone who posted to help  :grouphug:

Pony Corral / new FiM fabric spotted at JoAnn!
« on: October 16, 2013, 01:25:29 AM »
FINALLY! After I dropped my 4yo off at preschool this morning, I stopped by JoAnn to get some minky to make a Rarity plushie. My BFF and I were just complaining the other day how much it sucks that JoAnn doesn't have ANY MLP fabric (they did earlier in the summer, the 'Horsin' Around' print, but that sold out within days). I walked down the character fabric aisle, and lo and behold! There is fleece with Rainbow Dash, Pinkie Pie, and Princess Twilight Sparkle! It's really pretty, just wish all of the Mane 6 were featured.

BUT...it's $14.99 a freaking yard!  :shocked: Guess I'll be crossing my fingers for a 60% off sale AND a 20% off your total purchase coupon! Sheesh.

here's the link: http://www.joann.com/licensed-fleece-fabric-my-little-pony-badges-/12620340.html

Introductions / Hi!
« on: October 08, 2013, 11:23:14 AM »
I give my mom such a hard time now for depriving me of MLP growing up, especially since one of my best friends had *so* many! The only one I was allowed to have (and that was because it was clearanced) was Ruby Lips. Sad, I know ;)

I am 27, mom of a 4yo daughter who is infatuated with MLP. She just had her birthday, and of course, the theme was MLP, and 9 out of 10 gifts were ponies haha. I love seeing her light up, getting lost in the pony world. Her imagination is fantastic, it is wonderful to listen to her make up scenarios. I am very happy that she loves all generations of MLP (although the G3.5 kinda freak me out), as I'm a bit partial to G2/3. My husband even knows the songs and sings them in the car with her!

Luckily, my best friend still owns most of her collection (if she wasn't so busy with grad school, I'm sure we would be busting open those old bins and playing ponies for days!), and spoils my daughter. She also has horses, one of which her mom says is my daughter's for equestrian in high school :D She is a natural-born rider, perfect posture, no fear, great respect...I'm such a proud mom!

Un-pony related about me: born and raised in MI, live on the other side of the lake that I grew up on. Love reading (and sleeping) and am in animal rescue (volunteer/advocate). We have one dog, and three cats. I also sew and craft. I've started sewing ponies for my daughter, which is really cool! I use ValleyViolet's pattern (from deviantart), and I highly recommend her patterns.

Thanks for allowing me into the arena!
