I think my life is boring, and I don't even know what do I enjoy.. I have to experiment with things even before I can decide if it's for me or not.

But anyway, can you suggest any "cool" hobbies for me?

Maybe rock climbing, photography, etc..these are just two hobbies which I think are sexy and cool at the same time. hehe.

I live in Chicago and I'm overwhelmed with copyrights (meaning if I go on Ebay and sell my crochet items, how will I know if the patterns were copyrighted?),doing business within the city, sole propriorship versus a home base business. Trying to persue this could cost lots of money and I have a very limited budget not to mention this is extremely time consuming because there are so many avenues out there. Everyone tells me I should/could sell my items ,I 've been hearing this for years and frankly I could use the money. Just the " first" step to get started is what I need...Any info would be appreciated

How do they get the right and left earrings to be so identical? It looks like it is cut out of sheets of flat or curved shell with a laser. Sometimes the shell is different colours - how do they dye it? I have a pair of very lightweight blue shiny shell earrings that cost about $5, in the shape of kangaroos. At least one person a day used to stop me in the street to ask where I got them (Darwin) but the head and tail snapped off one of them. I bought some shells that look like the type the earrings were made from and would like to cut out another kangaroo, but how? I have looked in plenty of craft books, but it must be a secret in Bali or Thailand. I have pairs of these earrings in the shapes of hearts, palm trees, leaves, and stars. They are all white except the kangaroos. They are all so fine that you can nearly see through them.

I am making a dress for a renaissance festival- no, it will not be historically accurate..

I want to use a spray fabric paint to stencil on a pattern on the bottom of the skirt.

I bought a product from hobby lobby:

I bought the "upholstery fabric paint"
http://www.simplyspray.com/

I liked the color and the price, and the fact it was not a "on the top" kind of paint.

It runs really bad and can't be used as a stencil.

The company makes a stencil spray- has anyone used this product? how "Raised" is it on top of the cloth? The company says the stencil stuff is thicker.

Is there an agent I can put into the cloth to stop the bleeding of the stencil? That will wash out?

Please, does anyone know a quicker or easier way?!
I would be greatly appreciative of any tips!
I have one of those old (80s era?) shirts with that horrible elastic band at the bottom seam that cinches up around your waste. Awful! But this one, instead of a white pre-fab band just sewn onto it, has six rows of stitches in gold elastic string to make it stretchy. Goes through all the layers and is very hard to remove because when you pull on it with a remover it knots up. I really want to wear it, I LOVE everything else about it, but jeez it's going to take me forever to go through all those rows! Thanks for any (serious) suggestions; I will be checking back to see if anyone is confused and needs more information about this question so they can help me!
