article: For a large, substantial tag, cut out your image to create a 5 x 7 inch/12.5 x 17.5cm card. Although this will be the tag's main image, you will be laying cardstock over it that will contain the recipient's name. Use distressing ink to create a vintage look. If the photo, sheet music or image already has a distressed appeal, you can skip this step.

article: It can be very dangerous to put anything in your ear canal — even something as seemingly harmless as olive oil or garlic — unless a doctor has examined your ear canal and made sure there is no damage. Some risks include permanently damaging your hearing if the membrane is ruptured, likelihood of changing the local micro-biome, and possibility of causing additional inflammation. There are some natural remedies that may help to relieve ear pain, but as with any kind of complementary medicine, you should check with your doctor first.  Keep in mind that ear oils should not be used on a ruptured eardrum — which you likely will be unable to identify without seeing a doctor first. Ear oils can also make it harder for your doctor to examine your ear. Some natural remedies may end up causing irritation of the canal and therefore more pain/discomfort. Olive oil may help to relieve ear pain and treat an ear infection. Try putting a few drops of olive oil into your ear using a medicine dropper. Repeat the dosage a few times per day. If you do not have an ear dropper, then you can soak a cotton ball in some olive oil, squeeze out the excess oil, and then place the cotton ball into your ear. You can also infuse olive oil with different herbs to make this treatment more effective.   Garlic. Garlic has antifungal properties. Mince a few cloves of garlic and allow it to sit in a tablespoon of olive oil for about 15 minutes. Then, pour the oil through a sieve to strain it before using.  Ginger. Ginger has pain relieving properties. Mince about a teaspoon of fresh ginger and allow it to sit in a tablespoon of olive oil for about 15 minutes. Then, pour the oil through a sieve to strain out the ginger pieces before using. Applying an onion compress to your ear may also help to relieve ear pain caused by an ear infection.  To make an onion compress, chop up a half of an onion and then fry it in some olive oil until the onion is soft. Then remove the onion from the heat and allow it to cool down to room temperature. When the onion is cool, place the onion in a cheese cloth or thin cotton towel. Secure the cloth or towel so that the onion is gathered in one spot and so that it will not fall out. Then, place the onion compress over your ear for about 10-15 minutes and allow the juices from the onion to run into your ear. Honey may also help to treat ear pain when used as an ear drop. Try using an ear dropper to put a few drops of honey into your ear a few times per day. If you are not comfortable creating your own ear oil or using kitchen items as natural ear drops, then you may want to consider purchasing a commercially produced natural ear oil. You can buy products that are already infused with herbs and that may help relieve your ear pain.

An important aspect of training your cocker spaniel is crate training. When done properly, your dog will see his crate as a place of refuge and relaxation, rather than a place of punishment. Crates, which are available at your local pet store, come in different sizes and materials , such as plastic, fabric, and metal.  If your dog is a puppy, consider renting a crate from your local animal shelter, since he will eventually outgrow it. This will keep you from having to purchase new crates as he continues to grow.  Your dog should be able to fit comfortably inside the crate, with enough room to stand up and turn around. Take your dog with you when you look at crates so that you will know what size and type will work for him. The more inviting the crate looks to your dog, the more likely he will want to spend time inside of it. Position the crate in a common area in your house, such as the family room, and place comfortable bedding inside of it. You can also play some of his toys in the crate, along with some treats.  Taking the door off of the crate will help it look more inviting to your dog.  It may take your dog a few days to become comfortable with the crate. Be patient with him and do not force him to be comfortable with it by a certain time point. When it is time to feed your cocker spaniel, place his food bowl in the crate. Place the food bowl near the back of the crate so that he will need to walk completely into the crate to eat. If he is not comfortable with walking all the way to the back, move his food bowl closer to the front of the crate where he will be more comfortable.  As he becomes more comfortable, you can slide the food bowl further and further back inside the crate. Eventually, he should be able to walk all the way into the crate to eat his meals. When he is fully inside the crate to eat, close the crate’s door. Initially, leave it closed only for the amount of time that it takes him to eat. As his comfort level increases, leave the door closed for up to about 10 minutes after he has finished eating.  If he whines to be let out during this process, wait until he stops whining to open the door. If you open the door while he is whining, he will learn that whining is a way to be let out of the crate. After your cocker spaniel is comfortable eating in his crate, he will need to learn how to be comfortable in his crate for longer periods of time (30 minutes or more). First, encourage him to go into his crate by pointing to his crate and saying “kennel.” When he goes inside, give him a treat as a reward and close the door. Stay near the crate for about 5 to 10 minutes, and then go to another room where he can’t see you for a few minutes. When you come back, stay near the crate again for a few minutes and then let him out.  Remember not to let him out if he starts whining. Reward him when you let him out to let him know that he did a good job. Your dog may need up to several weeks to become comfortable with staying in his crate for 30 minutes, especially when he can’t see you. Before you leave your house, encourage your dog to enter his crate as before. When he is in his crate, reward with him a treat, close the crate door, and leave quietly. It is important not to prolong your departure or make it overly emotional. When you return home, stay calm when you approach his crate to let him out.  The more calm that you are when you leave and return, the more likely your dog will remain calm as well. You do not want him to interpret your departure and arrival as anxiety-inducing events.  Begin by leaving the house for short periods of time (20 to 30 minutes). As your dog becomes more comfortable with being left alone in the crate, you can try leaving home for longer periods of time. Continue to crate him while you are at home so that he does not automatically associate crate time with being left alone.
