50 Things You Should Stop Buying & Start Making As a society, we have become over-reliant on “ready made” products. We have lost the ability to make things from scratch. Rather than blend up some peanuts to make delicious, tasty and fresh peanut butter, we’ll spend many dollars on a jar from the store that contains artificial preservatives, unnecessary packaging and that simply lines the pockets of huge, unethical multinational corporations. Aside from foods, you can also make your own personal care products, beauty and make up products, cleaning products and home accessories that taste, work or look better than store bought, without the harmful chemicals and toxins and free from excessive, earth damaging packaging. Foods Homemade Ketchup – This ketchup won’t brake the bank, tastes better than the real deal and contains no added sugar – so it’s nutritionally good for the whole family. Peanut Butter – It is so simple to make this pantry staple it would be silly to buy it. Want to learn more about making your own foods? Next Page >>>
Easy-to-Maintain Lawns and Ground Covers Caring for a traditional lawn is one of the most time-consuming tasks during the growing season. Mowing, hand-trimming, weeding, fertilizing and watering take patience and time. But there are easier ways to obtain a great look for your front yard with less time spent performing those routine chores. Lawn Plan The kind of grass you plant will determine how much attention you need to give it. Also, your climate will dictate certain choices as well. There are lots of benefits to planting a mix of grasses. Alternative Ground Covers Alternative ground covers are perfect for spots that are nearly inaccessible for the lawnmower, like rocky sites or sloped areas, but consider them for the other areas of your yard as well. TIP: Our expert gardening advisor Rachel Klein adds, "A recent movement advocates growing weeds instead of turf as a lawn. Lilly-of-the-Valley - There are many beautiful low-maintenance ground covers. Traditional Lawn If you are loyal to your sod or traditional green grass.
Designing a Cigar Box Guitar Using Computer Software Designing your cigar box guitar on a computer not only provides you with an accurate plan, it also makes it easy to tweak and change depending on which supplies you have purchased. There are many different types of drawing software packages out there, from free packages such as Inkscape to commercial packages like Corel Draw, Adobe Photoshop and Adobe Illustrator. I use Adobe Illustrator as I have access to it through work, but most drawing packages have the same functions so adapting this guide to your chosen software should be easy. If you don’t have access to a commercial drawing package then I would recommend Inkscape, it’s easy to use and will create a great looking design. Let’s get on with the tutorial: Open a new document and set up work area 50cm wide and 100cm high. After deciding which scale length you’re going to use draw a rectangle the same width as your neck and the scale length. Draw a rectangle the length of your scale and the width or your neck.
8 great ways to incorporate a flat screen television into a room. Without a doubt, without any bit of hesitation or yammering I can tell you that the most difficult decision I’ve had to make during this entire kitchen renovation is … where to put the stupid television. I still hate where I put my television in the living room 2 years ago, so I can’t totally be trusted with this sort of thing. I can’t decide if I want a big television, or a smaller one, should it be hidden, shown off, on the counter, on a wall? I thought I had it all figured out. 3 times. 3 times I thought I knew exactly where the television should go and then some niggly little thought wormed its way into my brain and I reconsidered my decision. I used hunks of cardboard and put them throughout the kitchen to see how I thought I liked them. You’d think that once televisions became ultra slim, flat, and only 3″ deep they’d be easier to deal with. So I finally took to the Internet to see if I could come up with anything there.

Dump A Day Simple Ideas That Are Borderline Crafty - 27 Pics Click Here For More Fun Craft Ideas How We Plant a Tomato Love Apple Farm's tomato plant sale will be held at 5311 Scotts Valley Drive in Scotts Valley (near Santa Cruz, CA) and will begin on Saturday, March 28, 2015 and continue EACH day until the end of May. How do we plant a tomato, you might ask? With a ridiculous amount of stuff in the hole, is the answer. I think they're just either too overwhelmed by the real stuff we put in there, or they actually believe we're throwing in a sink. This is how we plant a tomato. We started this beauty in our heated greenhouse in late January. The tomatoes are placed three feet apart. We get them from the restaurant we grow for, Manresa. If you're reticent to put the fish head in the hole, or simply can't get your mitts on any, we recommend using fish meal as a substitute. The next thing that goes into the hole are a couple of aspirin tablets and some crushed chicken egg shells. The aspirin is to help jump start the plant's immune system. Bone meal is the next to go into the hole. Good luck, folks!
Slide Guitar: Choosing a Slide: Mass, Hardness, Materials, Fit Slides are widely available in different designs, materials, and sizes. These comments will hopefully save you from buying slides that will not serve you well and save you from picking a musical tool that might discourage you from pursuing slide in your musical life. Your choice of slide may very well change with your choice of guitar, string height and gauge, and amplification set up, as well as whether you’re recording or performing live, playing solo or in a band context. That said, here’s a quick breakdown of the options and their ramifications. Mass The mass of the slide is fairly critical to sound production on acoustic guitars. Electric guitarists can get away with thin slides made of a wider variety of materials because their amplifiers are doing much of the heavy lifting. Acoustic guitarists will best choose slides with significantly more mass. Hardness Tone and control of ambient string noise will vary according to the hardness of the slide material. Buying Advice: Which Material?

Great Recycled Craft- Yarn Wrapped Bottles with Decoupage! Do you like to craft with recycled items? I have huge collections of glass bottles in my storage because I never know what might come to mind. And there is nothing better than free craft supplies! A bright sunny project for a warm summer day. For this project I used: 3 Glass Snapple Bottles (cleaned) Yarn in three colors Decorative Napkins Mod Podge (Matte) White glue Silk Flowers Start at the bottom of the bottle, adding white glue and then wrapping it with yarn. Keep wrapping and gluing the yarn until you get all the way to the top. I used an off white yarn, bright green, and blue. Select a pattern from some designer napkins. Paint the section of the bottle that will have the design on it with a good coating of Mod Podge, and then press the design onto it. Here is the white bottle sitting to dry. I found that the lighter colored yarn had a neater effect, but they all came out pretty. The final touch was to add pretty ribbons to the tops of the jars and add some silk flowers.
How to Build a Simple Cigar Box Guitar: 12 Steps To start off with you will need of course a cigar box. Do not get a cigar box from a convenience store as they are thin and made of cardboard. Get one from a true tobacco/cigar store. Do not spend more than $3 for a paper covered box. We will be making what is called a neck trough design where the neck enters one side of the box and exits the other. You will need a length of wood as the neck. You will also need some basic tools such as a saw (basic hand saw and coping saw if you can get one), screwdriver, glue (use Titebond Original (red label), hammer, drill and bits, wood file or rasp, sandpaper, rubber bands (as clamps) utility knife, ruler or yard stick, 1" deck screws are handy but you can use something similar. Materials Needed: Wooden Cigar Box somewhere in the 9"x7"x2" range(Usually called card board but needs to have sides about 1/4" thick. Tools Needed:
Paper-Back Planters: Recycling Books to Pot Indoor Plants Have books finally met their match with the Apple iPad, or is it just another fad like the Amazon Kindle? Readers may find some poetry in these volumes regardless of whether they are willing to give up their favorite paperback companions: potted plants put into scooped-out sections of beautiful old hardback books. Gardenkultur (via Inhabitat) makes a simple recycling project out of even the most complex novels, but carving into the heart of a book, sealing off the resulting space and putting seeds of little trees or other plant life into the curved void. Of course, this would work just as well as a do-it-yourself gardening project for those green-thumbed enough to provide proper moisture barriers for their own plants. But if a picture is said to be worth one thousand, at how many words do we value a wee plant? Hopefully these books were beyond repair and those ripe only for reuse.
