INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can break apart trees with your bare hands in Minecraft. In Pocket Edition, just hold your finger down over the tree and keep it there until it's turned into wood. On consoles, use the right trigger button. Crafting is simple in these editions of Minecraft. The crafting menu has a list of available recipes, and you click the one you want. As long as you have the right ingredients, they will turn into the desired item. Here's how to get started:  In Pocket Edition, tap the icon with three dots at the bottom and select Craft. On Xbox, press X. On Playstation, press Square. On Xperia Play, press Select. The crafting table gives you access to many more craftable items, including swords. Here's how to make one:  With Wood in your inventory, craft Planks. With four Planks in your inventory, craft a Crafting Table. Select the Crafting Table in your quick bar and tap the ground to put it down. (Left trigger in console editions.) This is another multi-step process:  With Wood in your inventory, make Planks. With two Planks in your inventory, make Sticks. With one Stick and two Planks in your inventory, make a Wooden Sword from the Tools crafting section. When you have a sword selected in your quick slot, tapping the screen or pressing the left trigger will swing your sword. This will hurt enemies and animals much more than your bare hands.  Try jumping as you swing your sword. If you hit the target while you're falling (but not on the way up), you'll do a critical hit for 50% more damage.  Keep reading if you want to upgrade to a more damaging and durable sword.

SUMMARY: Turn trees into wood. Learn how to craft. Make a crafting table. Make the wooden sword. Use your sword.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Temperatures fluctuate greatly during the fall. Mornings will be chilly, afternoons will be hot, and evenings will be cool again. If you are at work or at school all day long, you may not have the time to change your clothes. The best way to manage this is by wearing layers, which you can take off as the day grows warmer. If you live in a place that gets cooler weather during fall, consider wearing some short-sleeved or long-sleeved shirts; these can be worn under cardigans, or over lacy tank tops. You may also wear turtlenecks and button-up shirts and blouses. If you live in a place that gets warmer weather, you can wear tank tops and short-sleeved shirts. Here are some more ideas:  Wear a lacy tank top under a long-sleeved shirt with a scooped neckline. The lace will peep out from under the neckline, giving you a feminine look while keeping you warm. Wear a plaid, button-up shirt over a white tank top or short-sleeved shirt. For a classic fall look, pair this with some jeans and work boots. Consider layering jumpers or knitted dresses over a long-sleeved shirt and some tights or leggings. The mornings and evenings during fall are usually cold, while the afternoons are warm. Because of this, you want to wear something over your shirt that can be easily taken off. Here are some suggestions:  If you live in a place that is relatively warm during the fall, wear light coats, cardigans, and sweaters. Avoid anything too thick or warm. If you live in a place that is cold and wet during the fall, consider wearing a jacket or a long trench coat. You can also wear heavier coats, cardigans, and sweaters. Hoodies are great for all sorts of weather; they can also be easily tied around your waist when it gets too warm. If you really want to wear shorter skirts or shorts, consider layering them with dark-colored leggings or tights for a chic, fashionable look. Long jeans and dark-colored slacks are perfect for fall. Here are some more ideas:  If you wear skinny jeans, you can tuck them into a pair of boots. Pair a wool or tweed skirt with a pair of dark, solid-colored tights or leggings. Fall is the time to put away your wedges, pumps, sandals, and flip flops. Instead, wear close-toed shoes, sneakers, and boots. Here are some ideas:  Got cozy and comfortable with a pair of Uggs or other fur-lined bulky boots. For cool, damp falls, opt for a pair of Doc Martens or other combat, military, or work boots. If you live in a place that gets warmer weather during fall, you can wear canvas shoes, such as Chuck Taylors, Toms, or Vans. You can also wear some fashionable riding boots, knee-high boots, or calf-length boots. Accessories such as scarves, hats, and gloves not only keep you warm, but they are also easy to put away for when the day gets warm. Here are some ideas:  For hats, try a newsboy cap, or hats made from felt or tweed. For scarves, try something made from flannel with a solid or plaid pattern. Avoid wearing wool or knitted scarves, unless you live in a cooler climate. Gloves are the most versatile. Consider wearing some suede or leather gloves. If you live in a warmer climate, try on a pair of finger-less gloves.

SUMMARY: Plan on layering your clothes. Wear shirts that can be layered. Choose appropriate outerwear. Wear long pants and skirts. Wear boots and sneakers. Gather some warm weather accessories.


INPUT ARTICLE: Article: You can create your design by drawing it freehand, using a stencil, or even using a die-cutting machine if you have one.  Outdoor vinyl is waterproof, making it the best choice for use on drinkware. You can purchase outdoor vinyl at a craft or home supply store. Die-cutting machines often have pre-programmed designs for you to choose from, but you may be able to create an original design by experimenting with the software. Try tracing out letters to create a monogram, or use different colors of vinyl to create colorful hearts or polka dots. Once you have the design how you want it, carefully cut along the edges. Use caution when cutting with scissors or a craft knife, and never allow small children to handle sharp objects. Transfer tape is made to help you apply decals evenly. Lay your vinyl decal so that it’s facing up, then carefully apply a strip of transfer tape over the top of the entire decal.  If your decal has more than one piece, arrange the pieces exactly how you want them, then apply the transfer tape. This will help ensure they are spaced properly when you apply the decal to the tumbler. You can purchase transfer tape at almost any craft store. Once you’ve removed the backing, pick up the piece of transfer tape and lay it on the tumbler with the sticky side of the vinyl facing down.  It may help to have the tumbler laying on its side so you can see exactly where you’re applying the decal. Press firmly on the vinyl to ensure it’s fully adhered to the tumbler. If the vinyl decal doesn't lay flat, it won't stick properly to the tumbler. If you notice any bubbles or wrinkles, you can smooth them out with your fingers or with the end of a credit card. Once you remove the transfer tape, your design is finished! The outdoor vinyl should be long-lasting, although you may want to wash your tumbler by hand to help preserve your decal.

SUMMARY:
Trace your design on a sheet of outdoor vinyl. Cut out your applique using sharp scissors or a craft knife. Lay transfer tape over the top of your graphic. Peel the backing off of the vinyl and press it onto the tumbler. Smooth out any wrinkles or bubbles in the vinyl. Remove the transfer tape and enjoy your new tumbler!
