article: Before applying detergents, cleaners, or bleach to a shower curtain, test out the cleaners on a small portion of the curtain. Make sure they do not cause discoloration or damage. If you notice any damage, opt for a different cleaner. Before washing a shower curtain, give the care label a close read. Most shower curtains can be washed in the washing machine with detergent or bleach, but some are hand wash only. Others may require specific types of cleaning. Always read the care label over carefully before washing your curtain. After cleaning your shower curtain, take steps to make sure mold and mildew do not build up in the future. Spray down the shower curtain with a mixture of half water and half vinegar each day. Wash the bottom of the shower curtain with vinegar and water each week to remove any soap scum and mildew building up on the bottom of the curtain. Go for body wash over bar soaps, as bar soaps can cause scum.

Draw a numbered grid on the back of each photo. Use a paper trimmer to carefully cut the photo into squares. Attach the first square to the scrapbook paper with double-sided tape. Leave a small gap, then attach the next square, and repeat. Continue until the entire photo has been added, then decorate your page."
article: The number of photos you choose will depend on the size of your scrapbook paper, the size of your photos, and how much blank space you want on each page. You can arrange several smaller photos on the page, or you can make a whole-page layout by choosing a photo that’s just a little smaller than the paper you’re using. You can either create a mosaic by cutting each photo and putting it back in its original order, or you can mix-and-match pictures to create your own design. You can get a cool result from either technique, so experiment to see what you like! When you create your mosaic, a little of the paper will show through. Decide whether you want your paper to be plain white or a different color. However, avoid paper with an intricate pattern, which can create a busy effect that can be a little overwhelming to the eye. Common scrapbook paper sizes are 8.5 in × 11 in (22 cm × 28 cm) and 12 in × 12 in (30 cm × 30 cm), but you can use any size paper you like. Before you cut your photos, place them on your scrapbook page and decide how you want them to look. Leave room for any titles, stickers, or other decorative elements you’d like to include on the page. If you’re not planning on keeping the photos in their original state, you don’t necessarily have to do this. Turn the photos over, then use a ruler and a pen and pencil to draw a grid of evenly-spaced squares on the back of each one. Then, number each square consecutively. That way, once you’ve cut the photo, you’ll know exactly where each piece fits in the larger picture. A grid with 1 in (2.5 cm) squares is a good size for this project, but the size you choose is up to you! Place the photo on a paper cutter, and cut either horizontal or vertical strips along the grid you drew. Then, take each strip and cut it into smaller squares. If you don’t have a paper trimmer, you can use scissors instead. Just take your time and make straight, even cuts. Choose 1 photo to start with, and look for the piece with the number 1 written on it. Peel the backing off of a small square of double-sided tape and attach it to the back of the photo, then peel the backing off the top of the tape. Press the square down onto the scrapbook paper to adhere it.  It may be helpful to cut the squares of double-sided tape in advance, but it’s not necessary. If you prefer another adhesive, you can use that instead. However, avoid liquid glue, as this can discolor a photograph. You can space the photos out as much or as little as you wish, but for the best effect, leave a small space of 1⁄16–1⁄8 in (0.16–0.32 cm) between each square. This will allow you to easily make out the original picture, but you’ll still get the mosaic effect. Try to make the spaces between the photo squares even. Once you’ve placed all of the squares on the scrapbook paper, add any other decorative elements you’d like. You can find all sorts of decorations wherever you buy scrapbook supplies, or you can make your own! If you used double-sided tape, you can put your scrapbook page in a sleeve immediately. However, if you used a different adhesive that needs to dry, be sure to wait before you add your mosaic to your scrapbook!

article:
ACV is an astringent, meaning it constricts body tissues.  It serves as a great base for mixing kitchen ingredients that can battle the bugs. Add 32oz of apple cider vinegar to 2 Tbsp each of the following herbs sage, rosemary, lavender, thyme and mint.  Shake it each day for two weeks, then strain the herbs and dilute the oil mixture with water.  Use sparingly, this is supposed to be a strong one! If the vinegar base is too dense, or has too strong a smell for you, distilled water works well.  Boil water with 3-4 Tbsps of any of the following dried herbs: peppermint, spearmint, citronella, lemongrass, or catnip.  Use whichever combo you prefer.  Once it's mixed, let it cool down before straining.  Add in a bit of rubbing alcohol and you have a great mix. The spice comes from the turmeric plant, commonly found in curry.  Sometimes it's used in powders, mustards, and butters for its strong flavor and taste.  In lab studies, adding just 5% vanillin to various ingredients, including turmeric, increased ability to repel mosquitoes for up to 8 hours.  Try combining the two ingredients, 95% turmeric and 5% vanillin, to replicate the mixture.  Or experiment with varying combinations until you gain the greatest effectiveness. Turmeric has been used as an insect repellent in Indian families for generations.  Make the repellent by grinding turmeric together with navadhanya grains and water.  Once that paste is combined, add some slaked lime, which is essentially limewater, until the color turns red.  Use pure turmeric sprinkled where you want to deter pests.  The high curcumin content in turmeric hinders the insects' access to oxygen, and the antimicrobial aspects create an unendurable environment for bedbugs.  Mix turmeric powder and neem leaf powder together. Mix with water to form a paste. Smear over uncovered flesh.  The neem leaf has shown the ability to not only repel insects near the tree, but also disrupt insect breeding nearby.  This natural insect repellent combo will keep insects at bay for an hour or more. Reapply as needed. Simply combine 5 drops of dish washing liquid and 5 drops of essential oils – particularly citrus-based oils – to keep the eight-legged pests away.
