Hi,
This is my first post, but I've been a lurker for quite some time.
I was fiddling around with a soda tab today..and found a way to remove the black base of a lightbulb (for all those vases.)
1. Take the soda tab and pull up the sides of the circular strip of brownish colored metal so it forms a bowl shape. (There should be a silver dot in the middle of this material.)
2. Use the tab like a bottle opener and pull the raised circular strip completely off. There will be a hole in the center of the black material.
3. Use the point of an automatic pencil and pull(stab) away the material, starting from the center hole.
4. Break the glass inside and pull out the wire. Rinse the bulb to get out remaining glass/white powder.
Viola. Hope it helps.

Feb. 15th, 2003 06:20 pmSome questions.
• Any good alternatives besides tape to hang things onto a wall? I live in a college dorm, and I don't think we can use tacks.
• Any alternatives to Modge Podge? It smells horrible, and I like it... but it's too smelly.
Hi!! Newbie here ;o)

Feb. 15th, 2003 06:54 pmmy nana sent me a letter and it had this stamp.
since i knew there was probably no way i could wash off the ink, i cut it off of the envelope.
see here:

what can i do with it now?
this picture makes it look bigger than it really is.
i have no good place to put it or decoupage it.
any suggestions?

Feb. 15th, 2003 07:03 pmi apologise in advance for crossposting, but i want to show this to both the
knitting and
craftgrrl communities.
i was jealous of everyones super spunky phat hats on the knitting livejournal, and i decided to make "the phat hat for newbies who don't want to tackle cables just yet". i made it out of three balls of 8ply wool on fairly large needles- i think a size 10 and a half(US, i think). ( pictures and more talking.. )
