I've been in art every year except this one, since I didn't have enough room in my schedule and I really miss it. So what's a project/hobby I can do at home inside? I don't have much money to go out and buy things. I like to build things, but I'm not sure what to do. I am very creative and love to read and wirte, I just need something new.

I'd like to make a moto track. I have the land, but that's it really. Is there anywhere where I can see a layout of a motocross track? Any ideas on how to make it? Do I buy dirt or just use the dirt already on site? How to form the jumps right? Which jumps do I use and where do I put them?
I have drainage covered.
Anything?

I knitted leg warmers from this arm warmer pattern

http://wineandneedles.blogspot.com/2004/12/wrist-warmer-pattern.html

Only I added an extra rib and cable on the side to make them bigger and didn't do a thumb hole. I did the ribbing on top about three times as long as the wrist warmers called for and with a smaller needle size . My problem is that the leg warmers don't stay up very well. Though I'm not really into ribbons, I'm wondering if putting one on the top would keep these babies up? Or would elastic be a better bet? I have never worked with elastic before, but I'm thinking I could sew a strip on the inside of the top ribbing and put elastic in there? Would that work, or is there another way to do elastic? Any suggestions would help!! THANKS!

teach a left handed person to knit. She is 10 @ wants to learn but even the mirror method fails her. There must be a simple way to help her out. No, we don't have or know of any other lefties. I am thinking of inquiring at nursing homes for a left hand knitter. Any ideas?

I would like to make chocolates with a design on them, which would require a mold to make them in, but I can't seem to find any place that makes custom molds for candy-making, because the top zillion results on a web search are the same old places selling heart and bunny and santa shapes molds. Does anyone know of a website or a brick-and-mortar store that will make a plastic mold for chocolate candies? I'm not looking for commercial uses, so preferably something not outrageously priced.... Thanks!

I have 3 old coins I would like to appraise. The first coin is dated 1762, is German or Austrian in origin and says EIN KREUTZER, the next is dated 1829 with Andrew Jackson on the front and crossed axes and shaking hands with the words Peace and Friendship, the next is from WWII and has Paul von Hindenburg on the front and on the back it has the Nazi Eagle grasping a wreath with a swastika in the middle of the wreath. It is dated 1936 and is a 2 DM coin. Also can anyone recommend a good way to clean and care for these coins without damaging them? Thank you all for your time and consideration of this matter.

OK. Here is the picture of the kegerator: I have recently added another tapper to the left side. (yes it is a converted freezer with a digital temperature regulator so the temperature does not exceed 33 degrees).

This will not be outside but not in the weather as I will put it in the garage after party's etc..(yes I built a cart it sits on to roll around on casters).

My Question:

This thing is UGLY! I want to put a cover over it w/ 2 slits in the top for the tappers to go through. I DO NOT want vinyl or polyester plastic. I am looking for a thick jean/heavy type material/fabric that is available in in colors other than blue. I would like to put some patches on the cover (Large 12" X12" Sports teams patches) for a cool decorative piece. Do they make covers like this and where? I have been looking all over the net. I think I may need to make something but where would I get this fabric/material? Please Help...

Does anyone know when Creative Memories will offer new album colors? I'm not crazy about the current selection but need an album before this fall as a gift. Should I wait for new colors or settle so I can get something now?

I don't want to paint pictures of shells. I want to paint the shells themselves. I heard that you're supposed to soak them in bleach first. Is that correct? I don't want the paint to easily come off when they're dry. Thank you
