Q: Pour the water into the saucepan, then stir in the sugar and honey. You can use plain water or infused water for more flavorful lollipops. To make infused water: boil some water, then add tea or herbs to it (such as lavender), and let it sit for 15 to 20 minutes. Strain the tea/herbs, then pour the water into the saucepan instead of the regular water. Make sure that the bottom of the thermometer does not touch the bottom of the pot. If you don't have a candy thermometer, don't worry; you can still make this recipe. Do not stir the mixture as it boils. The candy has reached the hard crack stage when the temperature reaches between 300 and 310ºF (149 and 155°C). It will take about 10 minutes for the mixture to reach this stage. If you don't have a candy thermometer, put a drop of the mixture into a glass of cold water. If the mixture turns hard, like candy, it has reached the hard crack stage. You can leave your honey candy as is, or you can flavor it with some lemon juice. Other options also include lemon zest, orange zest, ground cinnamon, and ground or grated ginger. Leave about 3 to 4 inches (7.62 to 10.16 centimeters) between each one to allow for spreading. Remember to leave some space between each row for the lollipop sticks too! If you have any lollipop molds that you'd like to use instead, be sure to grease them with cooking spray first. Give the sticks a twist before letting go. Make sure that the sticks go about halfway up the melted candy. It will take about 25 to 30 minutes for it to do so. After this, you can wrap the lollipops in cellophane or wax paper. They are great as a treat, sore throats, and for stirring into tea to sweeten it.
A: Combine the sugar, water, and honey in a saucepan over medium heat. Wait for the sugar to dissolve, then clip the candy thermometer to the side of the pot. Turn the heat on to high, let the mixture come to a boil, then wait for it to reach the "hard crack" stage. Take the saucepan off the stove, then stir in your flavorings, if desired. Pour small drops of honey onto a sheet of parchment paper using a spoon. Insert lollipop sticks into the drops. Let the candy harden.

Q: Use a white or other neutral color of elastic wristband that is covered in gathered fabric or ribbon. You can either purchase a pre-made wristband or make your own using elastic that is covered with gathered fabric. If you make your own, then cut the elastic the length of the circumference of the wearer’s wrist. Stitch the ends together, making sure that they overlap slightly for maximum comfort and the best appearance. Wrapping your bouquet around the wristband seam will hide the seam. Tie the bouquet around the seam so that the bouquet is firmly attached. This will help to hold the bouquet in place.  You may want to hold the flowers into place while dabbing the hot glue so that you know exactly where the glue should go and avoid burns. Do not hot glue the flowers when the corsage is on a wrist! This can cause burns! Make sure the stem is trimmed as needed so that the wire doesn’t poke into the wearer’s wrist. It should rest securely around her wrist. It should be loose enough to be comfortable but tight enough to not fall off.
A: Choose an appropriate wristband. Find the seam of the wristband. Coil the stems. Place a dab of hot glue on the seam of the wristband using a hot glue gun. Trim the ends. Slip the elastic wristband and corsage over the wearer’s hand.

Q: Relationships are an important part of the human experience, even if you classify yourself as an “introvert,” or someone who recharges by being alone and doesn’t feel the need for a large number of friends. Friendships and relationships are a source of support, validation and strength for all genders and personalities. Maintain the healthy relationships in your life with family members and friends. Research demonstrates that your mood can immediately improve after having a conversation with someone you care about and you receive a supportive response from them. As you meet new people, identify the ones who make you feel good to be around. Cultivate relationships with them. These people will add to your support network and help you continue building a positive attitude. If you find yourself having difficulty creating positive emotional experiences on your own, turn to a friend for support. You shouldn’t feel like you have to bury your negative emotions. Instead, talking them through with a friend helps you resolve them and make room for happier emotions.
A: Maintain healthy relationships. Form new relationships. Talk about your emotions with a friend.

Q: Lay your cardboard flat on a work surface. Mark these measurements on the cardboard and cut the strips. Then, mark a line up the center of the strips and fold them in half using the center line as a guide. Use a sharp utility knife or sharp scissors to cut your cardboard. Measure 3.2 cm (1.3 in) from the end of each strip and cut them to create tabs. Then, fold these tabs over each other and glue them together with hot glue. Folding the tabs will reinforce the ends of the cardboard strips. Don't cut these squares out of your strips! Use the rest of the cardboard you have. Then, cut the squares in half diagonally to create perfect triangles. Place the top end of each triangle on top of the fold line. Put glue on the sides of your triangles and put them in place along the strips. These triangles will provide support to your long cardboard strips. To make this easier, cut your big piece of cardboard so it's 56 cm (22 in) in length. Then measure and mark the 2.5 cm (0.98 in) segments along the cardboard. Cut along the lines and fold the pieces over to create a square tube. Measure from each end of the strip, mark lines across the segments, and cut along the lines. Fold the strips at each end to make tabs. Then, fold your square and tabs up and glue it all together. Place glue on your segments before you roll your square tube up. Using the rest of your cardboard, mark this rectangle with a pencil and cut it out. Measure and mark 5 2.5 cm (0.98 in) segments on the rectangle. Then, fold these segments to create a square tube that is approximately 2.5 cm (0.98 in) thick and 56 cm (22 in) long and glue it. Folding the cardboard like this will create sturdy legs for your easel. Make a mark at 3.8 cm (1.5 in) from the end on one of the legs. Flip it over so you can make a mark on the back side, then piece through both holes with a pencil. Place the other 2 legs right next to the pierced leg, mark holes at the same place, and push the pencil through these holes. Then, lay the 3 legs side by side and push the pencil all the way through to connect them.  The pencil is what holds the legs together. Stand the 3 legs up, then push 2 of the legs forward to be the main legs, and push the middle leg back to be the support leg. There's no need to glue the cross-member to the support leg as the support leg needs to be able to move. Mark your desired distance on each side leg and place some glue at that point. Put your cross-member square tube on top of the glue and let it dry for 20 minutes or so. At this point, you've connected all 3 legs and you've connected the cross-member to the 2 side legs. The string will provide additional support to your easel by preventing the support leg from sliding too far back.
A:
Cut 2 strips of cardboard, 56 cm (22 in) long by 6.4 cm (2.5 in) wide. Create 2 tabs and glue them together for support. Cut 4-8 squares of cardboard that are 3.2 cm (1.3 in) each. Cut a 13 cm (5.1 in) wide by 56 cm (22 in) long strip of cardboard. Make 2.5 cm (0.98 in) tabs on each end of your square tube. Measure and cut out a 13 cm (5.1 in) by 41 cm (16 in) rectangle. Pierce the cardboard to connect the 3 56 cm (22 in) long legs. Place the easel flat and glue the cross-member to the 2 side legs. Tie string around all 3 legs and stand your easel up.
