Article: For this bracelet, you will need thin leather strips or chords, leather or fabric glue, a needle, and embroidery floss in multiple colors. You will also need scissors to cut both the leather and the thread. Clasps are optional. Wrap a single piece of leather around your wrist, and add 2-3 extra inches to the length. The extra leather will be used to tie the ends together when the bracelet is completed. Cut the leather to size. Tape down one end of the strip to a table top, about two inches from the end. Dab a bit of glue to the leather, and then wrap a piece of embroidery floss around it. Wrap the embroidery floss tightly around the strip for as long as you would like, before switching to your next color. When you finish, add another dab of glue and cut off the excess embroidery floss. Follow the same process as above by dabbing on a bit of glue to the leather, and then wrapping a new color of embroidery floss around the strip. Continue wrapping the floss as far as you would like, and then dab on some more glue and cut off the excess. Add as much floss as you would like to your bracelet to give it a bit of color. You may choose to wrap the entire leather strip, or only a bit of it; the choice is up to you! When you've added as much thread to your bracelet as you would like, thread the end of the floss through a needle, and cut off all of the string except for about 1 inch. Thread the needle under the embroidery floss that you've already wrapped around the leather. Pull the needle out the other side, leaving the tail end of the thread hidden under the wrappings. If you want to add clasps to your bracelet, attach them to the ends of the leather strands at this point. Otherwise, simply tie the ends together around your wrist, and you're finished!

Article: In general, stain removers should not be used too often. Even mild stain removers can wear down a counter's surface. If you notice a spill, wipe it up with paper towel promptly. If there is any remaining mess, wipe the area down with water or a cleaner that works for your countertop. Avoid letting stains become set into the counter. A mixture of water and white vinegar can be spritzed on stains for limestone, slate, and soapstone. This should remove set in stains. You can also add enough water to baking soda to form a paste. Rub the paste into the stain until it lifts and then rinse the paste off with water. Bleach diluted with water can be worked into stains on a tile counter top using a toothbrush. Make sure to dilute the bleach to safe levels. The instructions on a container of bleach should tell you the ratios to use to dilute your bleach. If there is mildew in the cracks of tiles, however, opt for a mildew cleaner. You can buy this at most grocery or department stores. Silestone is particularly susceptible to damage. Store bought cleaners often wear down silestone, as will some cleaners made from household products. As specific types of silestone differ, check the manufacturer's label to see what is safe to use on your specific brand of silestone.

There are already enough unknowns in a first meet.  You want to appear confident.  Now is not the time to try to put together a new outfit.  Choose clothes you already really like, that make you feel good.  Think about what outfits you have gotten compliments on in the past. Choose comfortable clothing which fits well.  You don’t want to have to worry about adjusting yourself all night. Avoid wearing something that you think is too much of anything.  This could mean it is too short, too tight, too flashy, or too boring.  If you are already questioning it, don’t wear it. Save the daring choices for a later date when you want to spice things up. It’s sad but true that people react more positively to girls who are wearing makeup than bare-faced girls.  It’s a double-edged sword, because that respect can also be negated if you are wearing too much makeup.  Stick to just some powder, blush, mascara and lip color. Avoid excessive eye makeup or bold lip color for the first meeting. He may not be the type of person who puts a lot of thought, effort or money into his own clothing.
