Look carefully at a fistful of hairinthe mirror. See how each strand has a different tone? Perhapsevendifferent colors on one strand? These are the naturalstriationsthat Mother Nature gives each head of hair to work withnaturallighting. A good "color job" must duplicate thesenaturalhighlights to be effective.Before having any kind of color applied to your hair, select asalonwith a certified color professional.

She knows what will work, andwhatwon't.Once she studies your hair, its condition, its style, its cut,andyour lifestyle (e. g., how much time you plan on spending onyourhair each day), she will then make some recommendations forcolorand maybe even a more suitable style for you. Plan on beingtherefor a few hours.Once a basic color is determined, now comes the fun andcreativepart. She may suggest adding lighter highlights around yourfaceand maybe even dispersed throughout your hair. Lighter colornearyour face can change your entire appearance without thepermanentcommitment of an all over change.Once your new color is processed, you can now bring it astepfurther with temporary additions for one special occasion.Sparklesare a big hit this season and they can be applied by anyonewho hasever put on mascara - the brushes are identical. They comein everyshade from silver to diamond onyx and when caught in thelight, thesparkle is fabulous! Just don't overdo it.

Relaxing spaces, for instance, shouldincludecomfortable seating, while dining areas need sturdy tablesandoutdoor cooking amenities. Both should be positioned forafternoonshade.While some areas are for sitting, others should be for standingorstrolling, and at least one area should be for activities-especially if you have children.

If there's no room to divide, layoutpaths, patios, or lawns diagonally or along an S-curve. Thismakes ayard appear bigger by allowing it to unfold graduallyrather than ina single glance.

Woodworkers as a lot are veryopinionatedpeople; just ask us. We all know which tools, types ofwood andfinishing techniques work the best. Ours, of course, and totellthe truth that's my opinion too.I have tools that I love, andthosethat I don't, techniques that really work great for me andthosethat don't, as well as those I really dislike. But one thingIthink all woodworkers can agree on is the look and feel of afinelycrafted piece of work. If you ever have the opportunity tovisit areal woodworking shop or store, not those mass producedMegastores, but a real store or shop with saw dust on the floor, Iwillbet you will not be able to resist running your hands alongthetops, admiring the fine joinery and the quality finish even ifitisn't your style of furniture.Now there are many different styles of work, from the plainandsimple lines of the Quakers, to the highly decorated QueenAnnepieces with turned legs and curved fronts, to the ultramodernpieces that infuse wood and other materials. In my mind thebeststyle is Arts and Craft. I think there is a lot of agreementwiththat choice. One of the things I have learned since I begantoresearch the Arts and Craft movement is that the style isnotlimited to just the furniture. It's a whole package whichcanencompass your entire house. If you doubt this, go to yourlocalDIY store, where you will find an ever increasing supplyofHardwood Oak moldings and trim. Or go to any of the thousandsoffurniture stores, and even though a lot of the stuff isparticleboard and laminate, a lot of the designs have very strongArts andCraft influences. When we moved into our current home, wehad thestandard builder's grade painted " molding on every doorandwindow. As time and budget has allowed, we have replacedeverysingle piece of it with wide, stained oak molding. Werecentlyreplaced the stair risers and treads with oak, and most ofthecarpet has found its way to the junk yard. Why, because we lovethelook and feel of real wood. Most of the furniture I make iseithera reproduction of an Arts and Craft piece, or a variant ofit. Thefurniture that we have purchased is either Leather orDanishModern.was done using the natural beauty of the Wood and Leather. Theonlydifference I can see between the Arts and Craft and theDanishModern, is the choice of finish. The original Arts and Craftpiecestended to be rather dark, while the Danish Modern is a light,oilbased finish. Both styles of furniture feature simple linesandhonest craftsmanship. Some of the Danish pieces are tooeccentricfor my personal taste, but I have to admirethecraftsmanship.

Bothoptions will make the room moreinteresting because people will wantto look around to find wherethe smaller images have been placed.Make it a game and see who cancorrectly guess how many smallerimages there are in theroom!A second way to add interest is to take your favourite designandrepeat it in real life.

Even those with the very best handwritingoftenfind it difficult to paint signs using hand lettering. Peopleareaccustomed to writing on a much smaller scale using lines as aguideto keep the words straight and uniform. Hand letteringrequiresmaking the words larger and more ornate and organizingthem to fitwithin the frame. Since there is little room for error,handlettering and sign painting demand perfection, which comeswithpractice, time and effort. However, once learned, this usefulskillis ideal for a multitude of projects and undertakings.Things You'll NeedPaperPencilRulerPoster boardEraserPaintPaintbrushesBegin with a familiar font. Before tackling the more difficulthandlettering styles, start with a common style. Straight lettersareeasier than cursive since getting the flow right is difficultwhenthe letters are larger than normal. If a variation is desired,tryopening up the familiar font in an outline style that you canfillin with color to add distinction to the sign painting.Practice often and start small. If the font is difficult,continueto practice on a smaller scale using paper and pencil.Slowlyincrease the size of the hand lettering until you achievemastery.Repetitious attempts to ace the sign painting willdefinitelyincrease the chances of creating a superior finalproduct.Take measurements. Knowing the measurements of the sign andtheintended lettering is vital to ensure that everything willfitproperly. Simply measure the width of the poster board anddivideby the number of letters and spaces to know how largetohand-letter the words. For example, a 12-inch-long signthatrequires the words “Go Team!” hand-lettered across needsenoughroom for eight letters including the space between the wordsandthe exclamation point. That leaves a width of 1 ½ inches foreachletter, space or punctuation on the poster board.Use light pencil lines as a guide. Working with a ruler,lightlydraw pencil lines on the surface of the sign. The lines helptokeep the hand lettering straight, and you can easily erasethemafter the sign painting is complete. For extra help withdifficulthand lettering, use the pencil to draw out a box outliningtheexact measurements. This guarantees that no part of theletteringgoes over the allotted space.After lettering, embellish the sign by hand painting. Thepencilmarks created by the hand lettering will disappear under thepaint,leaving behind a gorgeous handmade sign. Use two colors tocreate ashadow effect on the hand lettering, or accent withglitter.Painting small designs on the sign to enhance the wordsalso workswell as long as the configuration does not interfere withthelettering.

Quilling has been around for centurieshowevernot many people know what it actually is. To me it is anart, a wayto relax after a long day in work. Quilling is a greatway to startyour adventure with crafts if you are a beginner as itdoesn'trequire much skill. The only thing it requires is patienceandtime.Even complete beginners can succeed in quilling. I didn'tknowanything about it when I got my first quilled card from my mum.Iloved it and I was sure it was so difficult to do. I wasreallysurprised to find out that the card was actually made by mymum'sfriend. I made up my mind then that I will learn how to do it.Ihad no idea where to start so my mum's friend told me to buyaquilling kit for beginners. And so I did.Quilling Kit for Beginners may consist of:- Slotted quilling tool- Glue- Strips of paperAnd that's basically it. If you don't want to spend any moneyatall, you may use a needle instead of a slotted tool and cutyourown paper using old magazines, newspapers, anythingreally.I learned all the basic quilling shapes, and to be honest,therearen't that many. All you need to do is to roll a strip ofpaper onyour quilling tool and then either glue it or leave looseand shapewith your fingers into whatever you desire. Then youcombinedifferent shapes to create any picture you can thinkof.You can pinch the coils in a number of ways to createvariousshapes.
