finished card

Checkmate Father's Day CardHere is a themed card for a chess-loving father. The focus point of the card is a king chess piece, reminding your father that he is the king of your heart. The card requires a few simple materials, but the end result is very pleasing and should speak right to your father's heart. Checkmate!

Morning Dew Car WashLiving in Southern California during the worst drought the U.S. has ever seen is no walk in the park. You have to get creative about how to save water - something I almost never had to worry about growing up in the rain-drenched North East.

iPhone Kids Mode

iPhone Kids ModeThe iPhone has a secret mode which locks the user into a single application. You can use it whenever you hand your phone to one of your kids to ensure that they stay in the game or video that you are letting them see without allowing them to get into other apps.

 

House Plants

Watering Plants While on VacationIf you are going on vacation from four to five weeks this is a tried and true way to keep your potted plants, as well as large ferns in hanging baskets watered without depending on someone to tend them in your absence.

Nail Polish Remover for Removing Hair DyeI just did this and it worked perfectly! Use nail polish remover, a brillo pad and makeup remover wipes. After you are done, go over the area with wood floor cleaner to make it shine.

What Breed Is My Dog?Our girl's name is Marley, she's approx 3 1/2. The man who we got her from said she was a Shepherd/Husky mix. I wasn't sure, to me she looks a lot like a Lab. I am just looking to see what others think. She is a beautiful and loving dog. She loves all people and all dogs.

Washer Doesn't Always Drain and Spin?I have a Kenmore front loader washing machine. Sometimes it doesn't drain and spin the water out. If I put it on a different cycle it will work or if I put it on the drain and spin cycle it will work. It doesn't always work if I change cycles. We have checked the drain hose for blockage, it seemed fine.

Lawn Mower Will Not Start?I own a Craftsman 1100 riding mower with a 17.5hp Briggs & Straton. It had gas in the oil, stuck needle, and a blown head gasket. I replaced the head gasket and the carburetor, the fuel lines, and the filter. I was able to get the engine to turn over once and it quit.
