When I did bead work 100 years ago, I would attach one end of the beading thread to the end of the bracelet clasp and go until it was the length I wanted it, then hook it to the other end and weave the thread bach about an inch. Don't know if that's what you meant or not.

this is the link for a great site.





It won't let me paste the page for daisy chain info, but all you do is go to the free category, and then do a search for "daisy" Be sure to check the box in the search that says "this category"





the free daisy chain instructions are easy to follow, free, and have good pictures. They will help a lot.





I often like to start mine with a loop of beads and end with a button. The loop will slide over the button and make a cute closure.

Great gatsby essay topic: daisy and gatsby love for eachother * please help?
The great gatsby was one of my favorite books in high school so hopefully I could help.





I truly believe that gatsby was in love with daisy. He put on partys hoping that she would show up.





Daisy might have loved him, but she was more in love with social status. She liked having money and being well off rather than being poor.





She already had her husband and daughter by the time Gatsby came back into her life, and even though she might have had feelings for Gatsby, she was not going to ruin what she had already established.

I've tried sowing daisy and buttercup seeds on my lawn to no success, any tips?? Really want meadow look!?
Pot the seeds and grow the shoots indoors, then replant..... it'll give them a better start
Reply:Wait a while and they will appear all by themselves!
Reply:Your doing it backwards. You have to clear the grass and cultivate your soil. Then put down your seeds, lightly cover them with soil, water. Keep them moist until they germinate . Then you can let the grass grow with them. The seeds won't do much the way your trying because they are fighting the grass roots for everything they need to grow.
Reply:sprinkle some hay over the top off the seeds....the birds are getting fat. ha!!! serious...it holds moisture, protects from hot sun...the seeds will sprout and grow right out thru the hay.
Reply:If your lawn is growing really well then the seed will not have a chance, the grass will crowd them out and cause them to die. You really need a rather neglected lawn for sucess, and preferably one that has not been fed, and most certainly not treated with weed killer.
Reply:IT SHOULD ALWAYS BE REMEMBERED THAT BUTTERCUPS - Ranunculus repens - is toxic plant. Belonging to the family of ranunculu, all of which are toxic. The handling Buttercups should never be taken lightly.
Reply:The meadow look and untended look comes from first tending the lawn. You should kill the grass (clear plastic in the heat of summer will kill it and all seeds in the ground) That will also soften the ground. This fall ask someone to till your lawn then in the spring sow your seeds and gently rake the dirt over them. Then sit back and wait. That should do it!
Reply:to get the meadow look . do nothing leave an area 2 to 3 feet from the edge of the lawn grow . do not cut the grass leave this area alone and weed seeds will self seed lawn daisy and buttercup are perennial weed .do not use fertiliser or weed and feed around the lawn.


if you get stuck you can have some of my weeds .lawn tip ie let your grass grow and raise the height of your cut to 3/4 of an inch this will allow weeds to get a grip of your lawn .


i hope this advice has been helpful .remember weeds are flowers in the wrong place goodluck
Reply:if it snows there wait til it is snowing and spread your seeds snow will cover them annd in spring as snow melts they will be in grond ready to grow are you sure you know what you are asking for


When is the next daisy chain run in the new forest Yamaha needs airing????

I stand to be corrected, but the very last Daisy Chain Run was 3 years ago.





The organisers pulled the plug, because the New Forest District Council were asking vast amounts of money to allow the bikes to park at Gang Warily.





If anyone has a website link for an '08 D.C.R. (not the Spitfire Run - that's a different route altogether), can they post it?

Why did the ballers wear their Basketball shorts like Daisy Dukes back in the days?

Why were their shorts so short? They looked like they had on teenage hoochie shorts. Bird, Magic, Wilt, and let's not even think about Barkley (Yuck). Why and when did they start wearing longer shorts?

Why did the ballers wear their Basketball shorts like Daisy Dukes back in the days?
They were short because they wanted to show of their leg muscles. It was deemed more "manly" back in those days. The shorts went long around the mid 90s, during the Jordan era. The changes were made to fit the current fashions, most likely with MJ's new line of clothing.
Reply:i would have to say that it was more "proper" to wear shorter shorts, because i know that dunking wasnt a "proper" thing to do. Wilt Chamberlin was really one of the first guys to dunk in game, and people hated it. nowadays nobody gives a hoot whats proper, and we have all of these ballers and stuff tryin to act gangsta, so they wear long shorts.
Reply:Maybe the question should be why do players today wear their shorts so long? If the best players of the game like Pistol Pete wore shorts why can't players today?

Daisy Scouts funding?

I have decided to be a leader for my daughter's year in Daisy Scouts. I have the leader's manual that states the Daisies cannot perform fundraisers. I do not want to nickel and dime the toher parents. How did you other Daisy leaders raise money?

Daisy Scouts funding?
Hello Aimee H:





When my daughter was a Daisy, the troop decided on a budget, and we wrote a check. The funds are tax deductible, and we didn't get fat eating a palate of cookies. I wish we could have done the same when she was a Brownie...





I would suggest that you pair up with a sister troop, and go in with them on outings. The Girl Scouts in your area will also offer low-cost things that the Daisies can attend.





Keep on Scoutin'
Reply:If you are trying to raise money to go on trips then you can't the girls are not old enough to do all that stuff they have to wait till they are brownies


Similarly is Daisy Duke the inventor of Daisy Dukes?

well sort of, the shorts are called that because daisy duke made wearing really short shorts popular, so they became known as "daisy dukes"... its kind of like how a person's signature is referred to as a "john hancock"
