Pony Corral / Re: Cleaning Magic Message Ponies

« on: May 19, 2012, 04:57:35 AM »

I clean all my ponies with acetone (haven't cleaned any MM ponies)and that will get them quite clean (on the outside, at least, lol). Apply it to a cotton ball and wipe but then use a q-tip carefully around the symbols (and eyes, blush), getting as close as you feel comfortable but don't touch them. And don't make the cotton ball or q-tip soaking wet - just damp, you don't want the acetone dripping on ANY paint.

She sounds like an American Girl horse, but I don't think any of them had symbols...

Here's a pic of one of them but there are several different ones:

I tried to follow that tutorial and I had -have- issues. I did get 100% acrylic yarn, but I can't "comb" it to make it puff, it just pulls apart.

Oh wow, that is looking awesome! But what a horrible place for a seam! Maybe get a tiny bit of sandpaper and work on each groove a little?

The seam is in that place because they use the same mold to make long tails and short tails - they just add on the one they need. It is a really sucky place for it to be, especially when it's that jagged.

I don't have any advice, but I know we have a few members who are AMAZING with model horses. Hopefully one of them can help you out. She looks great other than that, though!

Edit: I just looked at the pic again and realized that the pose is EXACTLY how Squirrel is standing in that pic, lol!

Don't forget your 40% off coupon too (there's a Michael's App if you have a smart phone and tend to forget coupons).

That all said.... Martha scares me worse than the boogie man.

LMAO, she terrifies me too! But she (her company) has some good taste. I love her paints, but I haven't used them too much yet.
And thank you for the app tip; I SO am downloading it right now!

not mine yet!

Hopefully soon!

How would everyone feel about this~ sign ups in the beginning of July with partners assigned by the middle of July, shipping by the middle of November. That would allow four months for shopping and sekrit projects. I may even be able to host it myself if that is okay with everyone.

Just tattoo my name on that list, please! Lol. I finally got to post my brags, so y'all need to go look and be jealous of my awesome box.

And I'm crossing my fingers for the last 2 boxes! Hurry up stinky mail!

Pony Brag Arena / Re: I just acquired over 2,000 G1 ponies....no kidding!

« on: May 15, 2012, 12:57:59 PM »

So sorry to hear about your friend. If you're anywhere near me, I'd love to come help you! I can't imagine having such a task... if anything like that happened to me I'd probably just keep them all (hoarder! lol). Take it a little at a time; that's the only way you won't be overwhelmed.

I'll take any/all Bubbles off your hands! And f there's a white MO Scribbles or MO Birthday babies, gimme a yell! Best of luck with your sales!

Edit to add: I'd LOVE to see pics of the merry-go-round and the pony pals! <3<3<3
