You’ll need a matching button, a needle, thread, and scissors.  Double thread the needle and knot the end. Bring the needle up through the wrong side of the fabric and one hole of the button. Bring the needle back down through an opposite hole, and repeat this process of going up through one hole and down through an opposite hole six times with the same two holes. Do the same thing with the other two holes that you haven’t used yet. You will end up with the thread making an equals sign on your button. Tie a secure knot in the thread by passing the needle through the stitches on the wrong side of the fabric stopping short to create a loop. Then pass the needle through the loop and pull tightly to create a knot. Repeat this twice to make a secure knot. You can update an old pair of jeans by dying them with RIT dye and gaining a fresh new pair of dark denim jeans. All you need is a 5 gallon bucket, navy RIT dye, gloves, a stirrer, and a pair of old jeans.  Mix the dye with boiling water in a 5 gallon bucket. Follow the directions for the dye to find out the ratio of water to dye powder. Make sure you wear gloves while dying your jeans. Put the jeans into the dye, and stir them around with the stirrer. After about 5 minutes of stirring, pull the jeans out and wring out the excess dye. Rinse the jeans in a sink or bathtub until the water runs clear. Lay the jeans out flat to dry, or put them in a dryer. Sweaters often stretch out as they age and end up looking old. You can fix an old, stretched out sweater by resizing it to fit you again.  Put on the sweater inside out and pin it where you want to resize it. Pinch the sleeves and pin them to know where to sew. Pin down either side of the sweater to make the sweater smaller. Carefully take the sweater off and lay it flat to make sure all the pins are straight. Use a sewing machine or hand sew the sweater in a line where the pins are. Cut the excess fabric after sewing it. Turn the sweater right side out and wear your new fitting sweater.

Problem: Article: Some people think tanned or darker skin tends to look shinier than pale skin. If you have naturally dark or tanned skin, embrace it! All you'll need is a bit of lotion or oil to create shine. There's nothing wrong with paler skin, but if you want to go for the tanned look, you could try adding some color with natural sunlight, a tanning bed, a spray tan, or some tanning lotion.  For the quickest results, get a self-tanner at your local convenience stores. These self tanners come in spray or lotion formulas. Read the instructions on the tanner you purchase for specific instructions. If you choose to tan via sunlight or a tanning bed, be careful. Too much sun can be harmful to your skin, so always wear a sunscreen. Body shimmer can be purchased at most beauty or convenience stores. It comes in spray and lotion forms, and is a great way to add a bit of sparkle to your skin. Stores like Bath & Body Works often carry body shimmers. Create your own body shimmer instead of buying one. Mix some shiny gold or silver eyeshadow into your lotion for a homemade sheen. Start by adding a small amount of eyeshadow (just a sprinkling of eyeshadow), and add more until you reach your desired shine. Apply the lotion to your legs as you normally would. Using makeup on your legs not only creates shine, but also evens out your skin tone. Natural, dew-like types of foundation are great for legs, as are shimmery powder foundations. Rub your foundation into your hands, and then apply it to your legs like a thin layer of lotion. To apply powder, use a large powder brush and use large circular motions to brush the powder onto your skin. Search for foundations that don't rub off easily and are long lasting.  Some of the higher end foundations that fall into this category include Nars All-Day Luminous, Clinique Stay-Matte, and Mac Nourishing Waterproof. Some of the lower end foundations that fall into this category include Revlon Colorstay 24 Hour Foundation, Maybelline SuperStay 24 Hr Foundation, and L'oreal Infallible Foundation.
Summary: Consider tanning. Use a body shimmer. Use makeup to add shine to your legs.

Getting in regular moderate exercise is important for your health. However, you don't want to overdo it. Exercising too rigorously can increase your hematocrit levels. Some good moderate exercises you can do are:  Brisk walking Light bicycling Cleaning Lawn mowing According to the NHS Blood and Transplant, the frequency of giving blood should be a maximum of 4 times a year or an interval of 12 weeks between blood donations. Only do this as a last result and only if you have consulted your physician.  If he or she does approve of this measure here's why it's helpful:  This can cleanse your blood as your body tries to replenish the amount of blood that it has lost, making the circulating blood fresh. This removes excess iron in your body.  An excessive amount of iron is thought to be the cause of atherosclerosis or the hardening of your arteries.  When you donate blood, about 250 mg of iron will be removed from your body cutting your risk of developing cardiovascular diseases. Again, only do this as a last resort because it can have other untoward effects.  Make sure that you consult your doctor about taking aspirin as a means to lower your hematocrit levels because the only way for mini aspirin to help in lowering your hematocrit level is when it causes gastrointestinal bleeding. Aspirin is an anti-platelet drug.  Platelets help a lot when it comes to clotting in the event of an injury. When you take mini aspirin as a means to lower your hematocrit level, know that it can thin out your blood completely which can result to your blood's inability to clot, lightheadedness and other neurological deficits. Areas with high elevation have a lower oxygen concentration than areas with lower elevation. An area of more than 8,000 feet (2,438.4 m) above sea level is considered to have ”thinner oxygen." People living in these areas generally have high hematocrit. Moving to a lower altitude residence will help return your hematocrit count to normal. As an adaptation to the environment, the bone marrow which is responsible of producing RBCs produces more RBCs to compensate for the low oxygen level of the body and as a result, there is a high concentration level of hematocrit in the body. . Nicotine in cigarettes and other tobacco products impairs the blood circulation by altering the oxygen carrying capacity of your red blood cells. The body compensates for the problem of having low oxygen levels by having the bone marrow produce more RBCs, thus increasing the level of hematocrit in your body. Stopping smoking or consuming any other tobacco product will help lower your hematocrit level. Quitting smoking is also best for your heart, lungs, skin, hair, and your entire body. Aside from that, it's also better for those around you. If doing it for your hematocrit isn't enough, do it for these reasons. Elevated hematocrit levels may be related to a different disease entirely, namely variations in cancer and a potential tumor. Tumors and cancer – especially in the bone marrow – create an uncontrolled production of blood cells. Do not jump to any conclusions if you have a high hematocrit count. Consulting your doctor is the best way to know how to reduce your hematocrit level effectively and the only way to know why your hematocrit level is high.
