Clear Accent Card. Use clear scrapbooking embellishments to add quick detail to a card. Die-cut flowers from a transparency, then adhere small colorful circles to the end of each petal. Attach a fabric scrap to the center to easily express your sentiment.
Recycle empty paint cans with other metals. If dried paint fills a can to a depth of about a half inch or less, dry it in the can and recycle the paint can. If you have a more-or-less full can of dried latex paint, unfortunately, the next step is to remove the lid and toss the whole can in with the trash. We agree.
Removing Dry Oil-Based Paint. Remove a stain by mixing paint stripper with your absorbent material to make a creamy paste. Apply it to the stain and let it sit for 20 to 30 minutes. Scrape it up with the scraper. Sprinkle an abrasive cleanser over the stain, and scrub it thoroughly with a nylon brush.emoving Wet Oil-Based Paint. Blot as much of the wet paint with the towels as you can without spreading it or rubbing it in. Apply absorbent material to the remaining wet paint---use sawdust, crushed-clay kitty litter or a commercial product bought from a home improvement store. Leave it overnight, then sweep it up.
