Pencil Crafts

I don't know about you, but I love pencils. I'm talking about the old-fashioned cylinders of wood with lead (or graphite) inside, not mechanical pencils. Those things annoy me.

Wooden pencils are lovely: they feel good to hold, they are chewable (not that I chew on pencils but they give, making them desirable for people who enjoy chewing on objects), and writing with a pencil is just something I like to do.

Taking pencils to the next level with pencil crafts is even better! Take a look at the link below to see how Cathe at Just Something I Made used pencils to create this lovely pencil vase.

Tips for Selling Books on Amazon

The same title of book can have many listings on Amazon. You noticed above in the "Gone with the Wind" listing that Amazon lists books by New, Hardcover, Paperback, Mass Market Paperback, Kindle, and Audible versions.

Find the exact or closest to the exact copy of the book you have for sale. People are particular. Often they know what they want and they will be upset if they order a hardcover book and you listed your paperback by the same title in with the hardbacks. They'll usually demand a refund and you want to keep those problems to a minimum.

With the many versions of the same book for sale on Amazon, it's important to match your book with Amazon's listings. Use your book's ISBN if it has one to search for your book in Amazon's listings. Some older books don't have an ISBN but newer books always do. For more information on ISBNs, click here.

If you can't locate your exact book for whatever reason but lots of similar books with the same title are listed, choose the listing that is closest to yours. The publication date may be off by a year, for example. This is usually not a deal breaker, but be sure to list in the description that your book is similar but with "this year, instead of that year."

Also be sure to use the description area to describe any damage or labels or writing in your copy of the book for sale. Rate it correctly (New, Used-Like New, Used-Very Good, Used-Good, Used-Acceptable) or you may be sorry.

Paint Embroidery

These fun liquid embroidery paints that I'm highlighting here are made in the United States. They are lead free and nontoxic, so you know they're safe for you and your kids to use. The oil-based paint is permanent though, so you may want to wear disposable gloves while painting till you get the hang of it.

The embroidery paint comes in 1-ounce tubes of oil-based paint with a tip on the end. They are used similar to a ballpoint pen.

The paint can be applied to fabric, wood, metal, and more. With this versatility, they can be used in endless ways for crafts and decorating.

The paints come in the primary colors, jewel tones, country colors, and pastel shades.

Balsamic Vinegar Dressing Recipe

Balsamic vinegar is made from grapes and is noted with a leaf system. The bottle I have is "2 leaf" balsamic.

The balsamic vinegar leaf system follows:

~ 0 leaf is basically mostly red wine vinegar with a bit of caramel coloring.
~ 1 leaf is a light colored and flavored, and is sweet yet zesty. Good for everyday use on salads.
~ 2 leaves is more rounded in flavor, brisk and vibrant. Good for steamed vegetables and marinades.
~ 3 leaves is tangy, full bodied, and smooth with a more polished taste. Good in sauces and on fish and roasted meat.
~ 4 leaves has a heady aroma and is more syrupy and sweet. Excellent on ice cream, fresh fruit, and some cheeses.

Buttons for Sewing

If you are needle and thread challenged, you may not know how to sew on a button. Have no fear! This simple task is easy as pie.

You'll need:

- sewing needle
- thread
- sewing button
- thimble, optional
- scissors
- that shirt or blouse that's missing a button
- glasses, if needed

1. First remove any thread from the shirt or pants or whatever it is that needs a button sewn on.

2. Thread the needle. This can be tricky if you've never done it. Trim the thread and pull out a goodly amount, about 2 feet so you have plenty of thread to work with. Hold the needle between your thumb and pointer finger. Gently push the needle onto the thread so the thread lines up with the hole in the needle. It seems to work better to push the needle onto the thread rather than the other way around. But do what works for you. If the thread starts to come apart, trim the thread again. And don't forget to lick that thread as needed.

3. Okay, once your needle is threaded, pull both ends of the thread so they meet at the ends. Tie a knot by bending the doubled thread over itself and pushing it thorough to knot it. Double knot if the knot seems very small.

4. Now you're ready to sew on a button. Get the button, using either the button that fell off or match one from your stash, if possible.

5. To sew on a 2 or 4-hole button, start at the back of the piece of clothing. Line up the button on the front with where the button goes. Push your needle from the back through the fabric and through one of the holes on the button. If your needle hits the button, simply move the needle so it goes through one of the buttonholes.

6. Pull the needle up to the front of the clothing so it is on the front side of the clothing where the button is. Take the needle and push it through a different button hole moving the needle to the back of the fabric. Pull the needle through and continue moving the needle from back to front, front to back, at least three times until you feel the button is securely sewn on. Note: Use a thimble if desired. Use the thimble on your index finger to push the needle through the fabric. A thimble is great if the fabric is heavy, like denim.

7. Tie a knot. Use the needle to tie a knot. Make sure your needle is at the back of the fabric or piece of clothing (on the opposite side as the button). Push the needle through the fabric without going through to the front of the blouse or shirt or pants. Leave a small loop of thread and push your needle through the loop. Repeat this a couple of times and your thread is knotted. Trim the thread close (but not too close). You're done!

8. To sew on a shank button, the process is very similar to sewing on a button with buttonholes. Start at the back of the fabric (on the opposite side as the button). Push the needle through to the front making sure to line up the shank (hole) of the button with the correct spot. Move the needle through the shank/hole and push the needle through the fabric to the back of the piece of clothing. Repeat this process three or four times or more until you feel like the button is secure. Use the same technique to knot the thread.

Grammar Rules!

A reader, dlcass, left this comment on my Grammar Rules! lens:

My husband has a wicked fascination with Heteronyms...words that are spelled the same but sound differently depending on how you are using them. Examples are: lead (to guide or a metal), wind (a gust of air or to turn something...like a watch), wound (having turned something or an injury). We have a contest going to see who can come up with the longest list.

So, in honor of this great comment, here is a list of heteronyms:

dlcass:
~ lead (to guide or a metal)
~ wind (a gust of air or to turn something...like a watch)
~ wound (having turned something or an injury)

~ content (as an adjective: the baby looks so content; as a noun, the contents of my purse)
~ coordinate (as an adjective and noun, it's pronounced with "nut" as the ending; as a verb, with "nate" as the ending)
~ does (female deer or singular form of do, she does like carrots)

~ graduate (as a noun, a person who has graduated, and as a verb, the act of graduating)
~ live (to be alive, such as "We should live like there is no tomorrow." and having life, such as "It was a real live diamond.")
~ project (as a noun means a certain plan or design; as a verb, to throw or cast forward)

~ read (as a transitive verb [pronounced "reed"] means the act of reading, as an adjective or past tense verb [pronounced "red"] is the act of learning from reading)
~ record (to set down in writing, as in "We should record the date to remember it." and something that emits sounds, such as "I used to have that record, but now I listen to it on my MP3 player.")
