    Bad Ju Ju associated with vintage jewelry?

    I talked to a pawn broker on the bus a few months ago. He said a lot of people are selling their gold jewelry to make their mortgage payments. He also said he melts much of it down.

    Bad Ju Ju associated with vintage jewelry?

    Vintage Betty, if the piece is gold, you might simply sell it to a pawn broker. They probably don't care--they'll just melt it down.

    Bad Ju Ju associated with vintage jewelry?

    I have some jewelry from my sister's estate. She was a troubled person (putting it mildly) and yes, the stuff has a bad vibe. I don't wear it. My best friend, who makes jewelry, suggests putting it in soil or water for awhile.

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    Caution! With any spray, if you haven't tried it on a particular plant, try spraying it on just a few leaves first and waiting a day. Some plants are sensitive to even mild fertilizers and pesticides. And wear gloves!

    Thanks for posting. The article inspired me to check out a couple of books by Fitzgerald. I'm enjoying "The Offshore Pirate."

    Gardens vegetable, flower or other?

    I'm going to grow tomatoes, pumpkins, mustard greens and strawberries. My Mexican strawberry planter will finally be put to good use! But mostly, I'm going to grow flowers (food for the soul). Joie, I can give you some tomato and pumpkin plants after mid-May if you want. I start everything...

    Hawaiian sarong dress opinions

    I find buttonholes not too hard if I use the buttonhole foot. And I really don't even sew. Just practice on some scrap first.

    Hawaiian sarong dress opinions

    Does it state on the pattern (in the fine print on the back) whether you shouldn't use certain prints (like diagonals) or to allow for extra fabric if you are?

    The Cleaning Clothes (vintage or other) Thread

    I tried a brush on the jacket and it helped, but it frayed the threads of the fabric a little. I keep a nail brush next to the washing machine for getting out stubborn stains.

    The Cleaning Clothes (vintage or other) Thread

    The other night I cleaned a (non-vintage) cotton blend, tweed, lined jacket. I put a paste of Biz on the cuffs and collars--but it stuck to the fabric, so I don't recommend this except for an item you're going to wash. From there, I cleaned the cuffs and collar with a dab of Seventh Generation...
