Problem: Article: Don't apply your maroon paint or dye right away. Check how your paint or dye will look when it dries to make sure it's the colour you want. Apply a small dab of your paint or dye to a piece of scrap paper. Wait for it to dry and then check to see if it's the color you want. When mixing paint, it's best to stick to single pigment paints. Too many pigments can dull a color, so make sure your red, yellow, and blue are all single pigment varieties. Lightening a darker colour requires a great deal of paint, time, and effort. On the other hand, only a small splash of a darker paint will change a colour from light to dark. Try your best to start off with a lighter maroon. It will be easier to darken the colour than lighten it.
Summary: Do some test swabs. Stick to single pigments. Opt to add dark colours to light ones.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: This can be done in a kettle, over a fire, in a pot on the stove, in the microwave, or any other way you typically boil water. To conserve water, energy, time, and money, only boil as much water as you’re going to use in your tea. Rinse them to remove any residual dirt, bugs, or soil that may be on the leaves. Then, tear the leaves to help them release their aromas and give your tea a stronger flavor. There are a variety of mint leaves you can use, including chocolate mint, spearmint, and peppermint. The mint leaves can go into a tea ball, a teapot designed for loose leaf tea, into a coffee filter, in a French press, or straight into a mug. Some teas should be done at different temperatures, so you don’t burn the leaves, but mint is hardy, and you can pour fully boiling water right over the leaves. Mint tea should steep for five to 10 minutes, but longer is fine if you want a stronger tea. Once your tea reaches the strength you like (either take a taste or go by the smell), remove the leaves. You can also leave the leaves in, and the tea will continue to get stronger. Use a strainer if desired to remove the loose leaves if you didn’t use a tea ball or special pot. If you’re using a French press, push the plunger down when the tea has reached the desired strength. Once your tea has steeped, you can add honey or sweetener if you desire, or a splash of lemon before you drink it.

SUMMARY: Boil the water. Wash and tear the mint leaves. Prepare the leaves. Pour the boiling water over the leaves. Steep the tea. Add additional ingredients.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: The muffin pan will only ever be useful for this project, so be sure to use one that can be drilled, not your favorite muffin pan! Drill a small hole in the bottom of each muffin cup. You will be cooking the formed bacon inside the muffin pan. The hole will allow the grease to drip out and into the broiler.
Summary: Prepare the muffin pan. Place the muffin pan on top of the broiler pan.

The needle should fit easily through the hole you have created.  Push it all the way through every layer of leather and draw it completely out the back side. Pull both needles out the the side until the center of the thread is in the first hole.  Draw both needles upward and match to points to make sure the thread is centered. Push the front needle from front to back through the second hole.  Once the majority of the needle is through the hole, place your other needle below it so that you can grab the stitching needle with your thumb and forefinger the pull it the rest of the way through the hole. Take the second needle which you had placed on the bottom of the other needle, turn it toward the project and push it back to front through the bottom of the same hole the first needle just came through.  When drawing this second needle out of the front, feed some of the original thread already in the hole out in the same direction you are pulling the needle.  This will ensure that you do not puncture the thread. If you do puncture the thread, draw the needle back out of the thread, then back through the bottom of the hole. Gently tug outward on both ends of the thread to tighten the stitch before moving on to the next hole.  You should have an even amount of thread on both sides.  Pull slightly up on the back thread and slightly down on the front thread. Always start from the front of the project with the first needle.

One-sentence summary -- Push one needle from the front of the project to the back. Center the thread. Begin your first stitch. Complete the stitch. Pull the stitch tight. Repeat this stitching process until you have reached the end of your seam.
