Jan. 8, 2009 - New safety rules for children's clothes have stores in a fit !!!


If this passes there are going to be alot of thrift stores that depend on the income in a BIG Bind, alot will probably close.
It is sad that they can come up with some of these laws to try to pass.
What about ladies that sew there own childrens clothes, what about some of the material places that carry bulk material, are they going to make them test next?


A Goodwill store in Los Angeles is among those that will be required to pay for private testing for lead and phthalates of all clothing for those under age 13.

Jan. 6, 2009 - Post cards into Masterpiece


Turn a plain old postcard into a masterpiece with a simple marbleizing technique. Then make someone’s day by sending them your work of art with a special message on the back.

Materials
Used plastic food container that is big enough to hold your postcard (cleaned out of course), water, small plastic eyedroppers, enamel paint, toothpicks or sticks, white postcards or index cards

Directions
1. Fill your container halfway with water. Using an eyedropper, add a few drops of paint in different colors to the water. Swirl the colors with a toothpick or stick.

2. Drop a blank card on the water. After a second or two, carefully lift the card straight up and set it aside to dry on newspaper or paper towels.

3. When it's completely dry, if the card curls, place it beneath a heavy book for a couple of days to flatten the edges.

You may want to clear the water between card dips by dragging a toothpick through the water.

Variation
Skip the mailing step and put these babies in some frames for eye catching wall art to bring some color to your life every day.

Jan. 6, 2009 - Sleep Over Pillow


Not necessary JUST for sleep overs :)

Materials
Pre-washed white or light-colored pillowcases, felt-tipped fabric pens, cardboard

Make a pillowcase as a gift and include a special goodnight message for a special person.
