Problem: Article: You may have some of these supplies around your home, but if not you should be able to find them with little difficulty at your local hardware store. You could also check the home improvement section of general retailers, like Target and Walmart. You'll need:  Bucket Diluted bleach (optional; for removing mildew and mold) Drop cloth Dust mask Liquid deglosser Mild soap Primer (acrylic spray on primer) Rubber gloves (optional; recommended) Sponge Spray paint (acrylic) Stiff bristle brush (optional; recommended) Vacuum (with dust attachment or crevice tool) Outside and away from your home may be the best location for your wicker painting. This way, you don't have to worry about spray paint spreading to items in your home or your home itself. You should also:  Always paint, prime, and stain in a well ventilated area. Fumes can build up in small rooms or in those with poor airflow and become toxic. Lay down a drop cloth beneath your wicker furniture, even when outside. This will prevent grass, dust, and similar things from getting in the way of or sticking to your paint job. Choose a location that is out of the wind. Wind can make spray painting more difficult, and could result in it blowing where you don't want it applied. Wicker has a tendency to accumulate dust and dirtiness in between its weaving. Use your vacuum cleaner to suck up all loose dirtiness. A dust or crevice tool on your vacuum can help you better get narrow spots and in between the weavings.  Dust and dirtiness left on your wicker will get in the way of your primer and paint bonding to it. Failing to clean your wicker first could result in a less than desirable finished result. If your wicker chair is relatively clean, you may only need to give it a quick vacuuming before moving on to priming the wicker. Fill your bucket with warm water and add mild soap to it. The amount of soap you add will depend on the kind of soap you are using. Follow your soap's label directions for the best results. After your soapy water is mixed:  Use your stiff bristle brush to loosen dirt, flaking paint, and so on from the wicker. Use medium force; brushing too hard could damage the wicker. Take your sponge and dunk it in the warm, soapy water. Use the sponge to clean any caked on dirt, ingrained dust, and so on. Use a ½ cup of bleach diluted in a quart (.95 L) of warm water, rubber gloves, and a sponge wet with the bleach mixture to remove and cleanse any mildew and mold from your wicker. Allow sufficient time for your wicker to dry before applying your deglosser. The deglosser will remove finish which is often added to wicker to protect it. This finish can interfere with your paint or primer bonding to the wicker.  The best method for applying your deglosser will depend on the brand. Follow your deglosser's instructions for best results. Generally, you should put on gloves, then wet a clean sponge or rag with the deglosser. Apply a thin layer of it to the chair from top to bottom. When finished deglossing, allow your chair to dry completely before moving on. If your chair was especially dirty and required heavy cleaning, you may want to let your wicker dry overnight.
Summary: Gather your supplies and equipment. Choose and prepare your work area. Vacuum up dust and loose debris on the furniture. Wipe away stubborn dirtiness from the furniture. Apply the liquid deglosser to the wicker.

Problem: Article: Use a damp cloth dipped into warm water mixed with mild detergent. Rub the cloth over the scratch and surrounding area to remove any dirt and grime. These supplies can be found at hardware stores, and some auto supply stores. The buffer pad can be attached to any regular electric drill. The buffing compound helps it rub out the scratch. Attach the buffing pad to an electric drill. Apply a small amount of buffing compound to the pad (follow the instructions on the product). Turn the drill on and gently work the pad over the entire scratch area. If the scratch is deep, a touch up pen will hide the problem further. Look up the correct paint code for your automobile (check the owner’s manual or look for a label on the car). Find the matching touch-up pen at an auto supply store.  Most of the time, all you have to do is draw the pen over the scratch, and paint will be applied. Let the area dry before continuing. Clear coat helps blend the buffed area back in with the rest of the plastic. That way, you won’t be able to tell there had been a scratch.  You can find clear coat at auto supply stores. Follow the instructions provided with the product. If it’s just a small scratch, you can probably just paint the clear coat on the area. Work in a well-ventilated area. Once you’re done and everything’s dry, get some regular car wax. Use a clean cloth or polishing pad, and buff the entire area with wax. This final step will help make your car look as good as new.
Summary: Clean the scratch area. Get a buffer pad and buffing compound. Rub the scratch out by using a drill and buffing pad. Use a touch-up pen, if necessary. Apply clear coat to the area. Polish the area with car wax.

Problem: Article: Do your research beforehand to make sure your chosen flowers are safe for soap making. A good rule of thumb is that if they're safe to eat, they're likely safe to put on your skin as well.   Dried flower petals can look pretty in handmade soaps. Try hibiscus, rose, lavender, chamomile, goldenrod, and calendula.  Try using dried plants such as eucalyptus leaves or dried citrus peels to add fragrance and color to your soap. Steer clear from non-edible and toxic flowers like dahlias, oleanders, foxgloves, or lily of the valley. If you're not sure about the safety of a particular plant, research it online or refer to a botanical safety guidebook. Fresh herbs, flowers, fruits, and leaves can lead to mold and bacteria. Avoid using fresh plants to keep your soap safe, sanitary, and long-lasting. The only plants you should try fresh are lavender, rosemary, and thyme. The leaves of these herbs are pretty dry to begin with, and they can look attractive when used whole at the top of the soap. Avoid mixing them into the liquid glycerin, though.
Summary:
Use only safe, edible flowers and plants in your soap. Refrain from adding fresh plant elements to your soap.
