I have some postcards dated from 1894 - 1925 that have been pasted/glued to black construction paper. This was common back around the turn of the century. This was how they were displayed in an album for others to easily view. I want to remove them so that I can read the writing on the backs in order to better understand what the family history has hidden in these notes, but the paper is so fragile and the ink so easily smudged, etc. All searches that I have made turn up instructions that are too costly for me, especially when I am not certain that the information will be useful. If you have had success in a similar situation, your experience will be helpful!

I have a small collection, from a 1/2 cent 1855 California gold coin to a 1835 1/2 cent, a 1835 Half Anna from India, an 1806 Georgius III D:C Rex from Britiania and a 1288 coin with the Star of David on the back, and some others. Can any one help me find a good place on the internet to find the value of them?

Hmmm I have an old foreign anniversay coin(1980 actually), which has a unique defect on the number on it.
The coin is neither gold or silver...

I am not expert but I know the defects launch the market vakue of the coin....

Thanks

I know quilters use a foot with a 1/4" guide, so I was hoping there'd be SOMETHING out there that I can use for a 1/2" guide?!!?

I once worked at this summer camp at which we made kalidescopes. The material used was these small sheets of reflective plastic (maybe plastic? dunno for sure), but if you held the plastic close enough to your face, you could see through it. Another type I've seen isthe solid yellow, hard reflective plastic used for sunglasses, you know? Bottom like, I'm looking for something thats reflective to others but see-through to the user (I confess, its actually for the visor part of a Master Chief helmet). I'd prefer it to be reasonably priced, flexible, and cutable, but even if you have a name for the material I'm talking about, or ANY info on what I might be looking for or where I might look, that'd be great....

I'm planning my daughter's 6th birthday, and she has decided she wants to go jungle animals. We are making the invitations and the banners, we have clip art that we are using and I would like to make the napkins and stuff the same way. I'm not a crafty person, so I have no idea. Help please on how I can bring these things into the theme I'm using. Thanks

Someone tell me some interesting ideas to make bracelets using string and preferably no beads. Something cool like hemp jewelery for a teen. Not the common friendship bracelets or the striped ones or the braid please, I'm 16 not 4 I've already been told of those amazing styles.

How did it work out? What needle did you use? I would like to make a dress out of it, and I'm a little concerned it won't work at all. Do I need some sort of industrial machine?

I came across a pattern for a pendant that says to set beads such as pearls, etc. into the clay and then bake. Color me stupid but if they're not real pearls they will melt, correct?

And do you prefer baking the clay in the toaster oven or the regular oven?

I recently got a miniature dollhouse---finished, I guess you would call it---and I've been bitten by the mini bug. I LOVE miniatures! Is there a Website or catalog from which I can buy inexpensive miniatures at 1/2 inch scale [meaning, 1/2 inch=1 foot]? Don't say eBay, please. I want a real company if I can find one. Please help me carry on miniature-ing, because a very close person in my life died last year, and she loved miniatures, and I guess you could say it's contagious. :)
Thanks for looking at this, and I hope whoever is awarded best answer deserves it.

You know how when you are putting letters in friendship bracelets, and you do the forward knot and even backwards knot, you have to make 2 ties on to make one knot?

Well I did that and my letters came out very wide like this:





And I want them to look like this:

So when I am making the backward/foward knots on the letters, do I just tie it once or what?

If not, how do I prevent my letters from looking like that?
