I'm trying to glue on these rhinestones to my daughter's curtains to give it some sparkle, but the back of the rhinestones look like metal. I'm trying to glue them to taffeta (a material with a sheen to it). Any suggestions?

For a birthday party, I'm doing "message in a bottle" invitations. There is an invitation, plus a separate little sheet of paper (half the size of the invite) that has some more information on it that didn't fit on the original invite. The invitation will be rolled up and placed in a bottle with sand and shells and tied with raffia. I don't want to have 2 separate scrolls in the bottle (plus the small one would be too tiny to get out).

How do I include the little insert?

I'm looking for one to work as a booth/sleeping quarters, that is, preferably, below $500. I don't need anything outlandish, just a tent of decent quality, that looks the part. Any help would be greatly appreciated...

where can i find a doll house kit that looks like a medieval manor or a renaissance castle in a one inch scale? the closest i've found are the cheap plastic doll houses that mattel makes. i want a wooden kit that can last, like my mother's doll house that she had when she was a child and is still in good condition. i've seen some tudor and cottage style doll house kits, but that's not the look i'm going for. i want a doll house kits that doesnt look victorian, doesnt have a porch, and has large rounded towers. i want a real wooden dollhouse kit, not some kiddie toy that looks like a box and has plastic furniture. if you know a lot about miniatures, please answer!!!

I work at an eight week day camp, I am a counselor for four year olds. At the end of the summer, all the counselors give the kids little gifts. Most counselors put some time and effort into it and I'm looking for some creative ideas. For example, one counselor is making pencil boxes with kids names and putting pencils and candy and stickers inside. What I'm doing so far is writing notes to each one, but I need something else that is fun that they will really like. Any ideas? btw, they are four year old girls.

I like to make stuff and sell it online. For example, I make Harry Potter wands. I've also made ouija boards, that really work. I burn pictures into wood, and its all very beautiful. Do you think anyone would be interested if I merged my two hobbies? Do you think anyone would buy a Harry Potter Ouija board? And if so, how much do you think theyd pay?
