The Best Pillow for A Good Nights Sleep

 Choosing the right pillow may be very vital in accomplishing restful sleep. A proper pillow will help the top and neck with out applying immoderate strain, as it conforms to the precise shape of the bed, as a result spreading the weight frivolously and uniformly alongside the vertebrae. Pillows are a constant supply of frustration for many. In addition to aggravating the neck, plenty of pillows also can have an effect on the shoulder. The shoulder ought to not be positioned at 90 tiers to the bed, due to the fact it can cause spasms inside the trapezius muscle mass.Trapezius muscle mass perform a variety of actions, including acting as a platform to elevate the cranium, which is very important to relax in the course of sleep completely. If the shoulder is located barely ahead at the mattress in the front of the mattress, assuming that the mattress can keep this role, the threat of placing stress on the trapezius and forcing the scapula (shoulder blade) to the column is decrease...

Patriotic American Flag Paper Flower (step by step with templates)

Image
  I decided awhile ago that making paper flowers is just not my thing.  And then I saw someone post an American Flag flower, and I just had to try one more time....   The Cliff Note Version: It's 27 inches wide. 5 different sizes of petals (each layer a different size), 2 of each size in white, 3 of each size in blue, 3 of each size in red.   Paper is what I had on hand.  White is old CTMH scrapbook paper, red is the bulk recollections pack from Michaels, and the blue is from a sale at AC Moore. I used tacky glue.  Most people prefer hot glue I think. I cut the templates, the stars, and the center with cricut.  I used the template to cut the rest of the petals by hand - I think it's much faster that way.  (Just my opinion) Templates & Step By Step How I Did This: This is the template I used.   I started with a template for another flower (a free one - I have a long list of free templates and tutorials for paper flowers here...

My Favorite Reads - The First Half Of 2018

It's been a great year for reading!  According to my Good Reads log, I've read 73 books so far this year. The rainy days have made for great reading weather, if nothing else.  :-) One of my new favorites is the Agatha Raisin series by M.C. Beaton .  " Agatha Raisin is a frustrated, yet endearing, PR agent who retires from London to Carsley village in the Cotswolds, English Midlands and solves murders."  It's not a ground breaking series, nothing incredible about the books, but I am just loving the character.  She's brash and rude, and somewhat bumbling..  but she's honest and loyal and funny, and she's British.  It reminds me of a much older, classier, B...
