finally finished them, originally was going to be a candle scene for the bottom but I couldn't get the candles to work correctly (& at the time, I was running out. Now, definitely not running out lol)
other candle dressups:
2020 [2464 items], 2022 [2480 items]

Thank you CS for the feature!! It was a pleasant surprise to log in to!
And thank you all for the comments!! All I can say is a magician never reveals her secrets haha.

to answer a few questions:
How did you get this many candles??
A ton of trading--some were just picked up from small trades but some were 400+ candle items per (specifically, one of the 2018 events had about 186 candles released! And that's from ONE event!)
How long did this take?
Well, getting to about 2.5k candles took around 3-4 hours. I'm not totally sure after that how long it took as the rest was done in small portions but if I had to guess a total of 7-9 hours. The other dressups, which were half the items, took about 4-8 hours as well.
How much patience do you have???
Oddly enough, not a lot--it's more just suddenly being hyperfocused on it and then losing interest before coming back to it later. I believe I finished half of the candles in one session (~2500 candles) and the rest were done in a few later sessions (some the same day). Mostly due to the right side being *extremely* annoying to me. It just didn't want to work
I think, if I do this again, I'm gonna start from the middle going outward... maybe another rainbow background LOL.Why a rainbow background for all the dressups?
This started off as a joke project on how CS doesn't have any rainbow backgrounds! And if they do, well, guess I know what I'm aiming for next haha. Me and a friend were talking about it and we decided that the best way would be to make our own! I went with the candles since it's the easiest to trade for and covers the most versus the free store dog collars (I have somewhere around a thousand or two thousand in total of them which I contemplated using instead, decided against and I'm glad I did...maybe I'll do a dog collar one next)
