How To Make A Beautiful Flower Bed

This summer, I decided to make a flower garden for the first time. I started by blocking off a space for the flowers to go. Make sure you have lots of soil to fill in the space. I went to nearby gardening centers to pick out the flowers I wanted. My suggestion is to pick a variety of colors, that makes it much more noticable and pretty. Also, find out how big the flowers are going to get, otherwise you will end up with a overly crowded bed. I made that mistake and ended up having to take some out. After they are planted just make sure you water them everyday and get the weeds out when needed.

Baby Shower Fruit Tray

I prepared a fruit tray for my daughter-in-law's baby shower. I made a watermelon baby carriage; embellished the tray with my son's Charlie Brown character, flowers and greenery. I used cantaloupe balls, strawberries, kiwi, grapes, fresh pineapple, peaches and blueberries. I used lemon rounds for the "wheels" of the carriage, cut a slice into a baby carriage "handle". I placed small pieces of fruit (grapes, blueberries, etc.) to cover toothpicks. I made orange, lemon and lime baskets to fill in corners of the tray and filled them with small fruits. I served it with vanilla and chocolate fruit dip. The chocolate fruit dip was placed in a 31 year old ceramic baby carriage.

Roadie (Domesticated Fat Cat)

Roadie is about 12 years old and is a Domesticated "fat cat". Roadie was my former roommate's cat. She's getting married later this year and her fiance and his kids are allergic to cats. This is one of many photos I took for an album I gave her. He used to love to sit on the couch and look outside. I was surprised at how well this photo looked.

He loves playing with my cat Licorice, watching the critters outside and cuddling.

Two Haircolorings For The Price Of One

When coloring my hair the other night, I was thinking how wasteful it was to have to get rid of a half bottle full of unused color. When I finished coloring my hair, I rinsed out the mixing (developer) bottle. Next time I color my hair, I am going to pour half of the developer and half of the colorant into the empty bottle and mix it. I will save the remaining half of each solution in their original containers. They should be fine this way as they will not be mixed until I need them. Viola! Two haircolorings for the price of one! Be sure to rinse the bottle again so you can use it for future haircoloring.

Build And Sell Birdhouses From Found Lumber

Pallet wood is naturally weathered and looks like old barn siding. Use it to make simple, rustic birdhouses and bird feeders which can be sold at flea markets or even better wholesale them to garden centers around town. You could get $10 to $20 a piece for these birdhouses. The retailer usually resells them at double the price. . .

Try Salad Sandwiches

A lady I used to know, told me a great way of getting your daily intake veggies. She said a lot of the time, she might not have the time to have a salad. So she puts hers either in a whole wheat pita pocket bread or makes it on a couple pieces of whole wheat bread, using only a small dab of low fat mayonnaise and some seasoned salt and pepper. Simply add your favorite raw veggies. She'd use sliced tomatoes, sliced cucumber slices, fresh baby spinach and/or lettuces of her choosing, along with sliced onions. It was nice and filling. So having your salad doesn't have to mean a sit down dinner, you can have it on the run, too!

Old Coffeemaker For Melting Candle Wax

I bought an old coffee maker at the thrift store for about $4 and use it to melt bits of old candles with. I made molds from plastic container of different shapes and sand molds from the dollar store. I drilled a small hole in the bottom of the container to put the wick through and use duct tape to seal the hole, tie the wick to a pencil layed across the container to hold the wick in place and pour the wax in to set.

When I'm done with it, I let it cool and put it away in the closet. No need to clean the coffee pot out, just keep for the next time you want to use it. If you want, pour the unused wax in a sour cream container and save it for next time you use that color wax. No more messy wax in your double boiler or on your stove top!

Making A Magnifier From Old Glasses

Being so frugal, low income, and recycling everything possible, I found a very good and handy idea for my poor vision, having only one pair of proper strength glasses. Every time I'm resting, I must take off my glasses, then should the phone ring, door knock, I scramble to find them. Same problem with books, phone, reading, Bible, magazines, and mail. I've got only one medium sized magnifier but I have to walk all the time to get it, then walk to return it beside the easy chair where I watch TV and sew or mend at same time.

While cleaning out my grandson's drawers as a surprise for him while he's on vacation, I found a pair of metal rimmed glasses broken in the exact middle. At first I was just upset that they'd gotten broken. Then I tried something:

I had been making bookmarks and decided to heavy-glue a 1" poly ribbon scrap about 12" long to one of the broken eyeglass halves. When it was dry, I decoraged the attached place with tiny beads/pearls placing them just inside the metal rim carefully with marine glue and a toothpick, then added a different 1" flat grosgain ribbon to the other half lens for a second one.

As they dried I had a handy decorated "Victorian" monocle magnifier for two books, with ribbons that could stay inside the book for convenient use when I needed extra magnification to read smaller print. The book also sits near my bathroom door for reading medicine labels and ingredient lists as well.

Before adding beads/pearls/ribbon, use wire cutter to remove nose piece connections/ear-piece arms, and metal file any metal sharp places down gently. Glue ribboon to the worst of the two places on each of the lens pieces, as well as an additional piece of ribbon on the back-side of the attachment of the ribbon, dry well, then add beads or pearls.

This is not the easiest craft, but if the eyeglasses are fairly round or only slightly oval, the remaining metal framing strong, and the lens not too thick, it can be made to work AND look attractive. The glue needs to be Marine or extra strong Household glue. Handle carefully so as not to nick fingers. I thought about bending the arm straight as a type of handle, but most glasses have arms too thin to hold, so I felt it best to remove them and embellish the rims well but thinly instead. The right kind of glue is critical to the success of this project. Don't make the embellishment too wide so as to reduce the visibility through the lens.

This wonderful frugal recycling craft serves not only as a lovely monocle, but also as a easy way to store it so it doesn't get lost too easily when needed, saving steps and frustration. I see no reason why all older unusuable broken eyeglasses still in a metal frame could not be used for this purpose. It's a good idea to attach the ribbon at the place it broke off, then glue another piece to the other side for reinforcement and protection from any sharp edge from the break. Check to see that the glass is secure in the frame before beginning.

Don't plan on holding it with your eyelids against your eye, as some of the men did in Teddy Roosevelt's time, before my time too, but rather just hold it gently when well dried, and it makes reading less frustrating to see the sweet handiwork of art. If one does this well enough, it could be sold or passed on to future generations.

Housebreaking Litter Trained Dachshunds

I am having trouble housebreaking my 2 dachshunds, ages 2 and 4. They were litter trained when I lived in an apartment and so they are used to going to the washroom whenever they want. We moved into a new house a few weeks ago and I want them to go outside all the time. Most of the time they go outside but they are still having accidents inside. I reward them with treats when they go outside (my husband does sometimes too).

I need some tips on how to completely housebreak them. There is one accident every day or 2, usually at night. We take them out before we go to bed and then I wake up at 2am to take them again. They need a way to tell me that they have to go to the washroom. As well, I have tried crating during the day. At first it was only an hour and then I gradually increased the time (an hour each time). The younger dog had to be taken to the vet because she recently started to rub her nose raw on the crate.

I also would like any crate training advice that people can offer. I don't crate them at night as they have always slept in my bed. They would be devastated if they were not allowed to sleep there anymore. It has only been 3 weeks in the new house and there has only been an accident or 2 in the house but I would like them to not have any! Any helpful hints would be greatly appreciated!

Craft ideas for Campers

We enjoy camping and would like some ideas on some craft ideas to do while on a 3-5 day camping trip. Recently, we took a 5 day camping trip and made the bowling ball garden ornament. It was a lot of fun making it and now we have a memory of making it while camping. We have made party lights for our camper with flower pots, beads and a light kit.

We are looking for craft ideas that are simple and can be done outdoors on a picnic table.

Any suggestions on craft ideas for campers would be appreciated.

Fried Egg Poppy Success In Mid Atlantic States

Cigarette Smoke Coming From My Neighbor's Yard

My disgusting chain-smoking neighbor sits on his porch and smokes constantly. The smoke wafts gently over to my house which is approximately 100 feet away. The 30 foot high cedar hedge between us does nothing to stop the smoke. The neighbor sits on his ground floor balcony. The smoke comes in my main floor windows which are about 4 feet higher than his balcony. I need fresh air. I was thinking some kind of fan to suck the smoke away from my windows. Where should I place the fan and at what height. My property line is about 20 feet from my windows. Please help if you can. Thank you.
