I’m not the groomer’s biggest fan for two reasons. One, the cost which has risen from $26 for a bath, brush and ear cleaning to almost $40. The second: Last time I took my anxiety-ridden dog to the groomer he got off his leash, took off and landed in a puddle of newly-fallen, muddy snow. Joy? In an attempt to save myself from the headache of hauling him to the groomer, I’ve taken on the Herculean task of bathing him at home, which is not fun considering he HATES the water and gets cold very easily.

This is ideal for smaller, sensitive dogs –including my niece’s 5 Chihuahuas – or anyone that doesn’t want to deal with wet, smelly dog on their rugs and furniture. 1 cup baking soda. 1. 2.If weather permits, use the dry shampoo outdoors on a patio or other hard surface. 3. 4. 5.

Martha Stewart Weddings, Spring 2010 For these eye-catching favor pouches, we used bright tissue paper to create a pattern that mimics that bold beauty, then tied on a tag bearing planting instructions, and verdant ribbon to pose as leaves. At home, guests will peel back the petals to reveal a dormant dahlia bulb brimming with potential and just waiting to take root.

Hair Acessories. Make and decorate a hexagonal box. The hexagon box measures 11cm x 5½ cm, it is an unusual box shape that looks very impressive but is easy to do. It also has a separate lid, so the box and lid can be made out of two different coloured cards if you like and they can be decorated to compliment or contrast with each other. The combinations are endless, have fun making them. You will need: 2 x A4 card scissors craft knife or bone tool ruler PVA glue Bits and pieces for decorating the box and lid What to do 1. Download the templates onto the back of the pieces of card. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. Back to the Boxes menu... Back to the Paper and Card projects menu... Reversible Headbands. Here’s a quick and easy tutorial for a reversible headband. This makes a fairly wide headband — finished size of 2 1/2″ for adults and 1 3/4″ for kids, so adjust as you like. I used plain elastic in the back, but if you have short hair you might want to make a fabric sleeve, find some decorative elastic, or sew twill tape on top.

This is a great project for fabric scraps. Supplies: Fabric scraps (about 18″ long)Elastic (about 6 inches of 1/2″ width)Fusible interfacing (optional, but recommended) Step #1: Cut out template (headband-template.pdf) and make sure it works for your head size. Step #2: Iron interfacing to back side of one of the cut fabric pieces. Step #3: Pin two fabrics together, wrong sides facing, being sure to align them perfectly.
