Any Other Adults on this Site?

I've noticed that most of the userbase here skews pretty young. I guess that's kinda to be expected, but still, is there anyone else around my age here? I feel like a parent at one of those chuck e cheese birthday parties (not trying to be mean, just being silly lol).

I used to make bead animals when I was a little kid at summer camp, and only got back into that a couple months ago. Around that time I also learned about all the other cool stuff you can do with pony beads, which eventually lead me to this site.

Sometimes I worry about wearing my kandi stuff out of the house because people will assume I'm immature or something. Anyone else here relate to that? Have any advice on how to deal with it?

Feel free to share anything else in this thread if you want (how/when you started with kandi, your favorite types of projects, etc). Just trying to make conversation I guess.

I don't worry about seeming immature because frankly there's reasons other than kandi people would think that about me. I've also been to raves wearing kandi and no-one did a weird glance at me then.

I think I started doing kandi stuff in about 2020? I've done it on and off since then. I really like making it but my space is a mess so often it's been hard to set up X-P
