Have you received any ribbons in Farmville yet? Well, if you haven’t you will. There is a variety of ways to get them. Thus far, I believe there are four different colors, yellow, white, red and blue.

The yellow can cover a number of different accomplishments, for instance, you could get a Good Samaritan for helping out 20 neighbors. The yellow coin reward for this would be 1000 coins and you would gain 25 xp points.

There’s also one called the Knock on Wood ribbon where you would have to harvest 20 trees, you would receive 1000 coins and 25 xp points.

Now as for the white ribbon in these same categories it would be:

Good Samaritan: you would have to help 150 neighbors, you would get 2500 coins and 50 xp points. Knock on Wood: you would harvest 250 trees, get 2500 coins and 50 xp points.

This list is quite long so I can’t list all of it here, but from there would be the red and then the blue with each ribbon getting harder to get.

There are approximately 15 different ribbons that you can earn. Each one will have the 4 different colors, the yellow being the easiest to get and the blue being the most difficult.

Some of them are unique and fun, like the Shutterbug. If you’re into taking pictures you could shoot for this one, oh I kill myself. To receive a yellow ribbon you would have to take pictures of 3 different farms and you would get 500 coins plus 10 xp points. So as you can see with 15 different ribbons and 4 different colors there are many ways to make some extra coin, not to mention they will look great on your wall!

Farmville is incredibly popular game. People just can’t get enough. Everyone wants to have the best looking farm by leveling up quickly. To find out how…

Teen girls love to take photographs, and a great project that the two of you can do together is to make an upholstered photo board to display her latest shots. A photo board can add a lot of personality to the teen bedroom, and making your own photo board can be less expensive than purchasing one – and is much more customizable to the room’s current decor theme. Although you’ll need some basic know how when it comes to crafts, you’ll be surprised at how simple this fun project can be. As an added bonus, if you already have an old cork board that you can repurpose for a photo board, that’s even better.

Supplies You’ll Need
You can find plain cork boards at any big box retailer or home center in various sizes and shapes, or you can trim a larger cork board down to the size that you would like or even create shapes like hearts, diamonds, or stars. Once you have determined the dimensions of the cork board, you can gather the other supplies that you will need, which are:

- Fabric. To determine the amount of fabric that you will need for your photo board, measure the cork board and then add four inches to the height and four inches to the width. For odd shaped boards, like hearts, measure the height and width from the biggest or tallest part of the board.

- Ribbon. To determine the amount of ribbon that you will need, multiply the width by the height. Most ribbon is sold in yards, so take the number of inches and divide by thirty-six to determine the number of yards of ribbon you will need.

- Upholstery tacks.

- Spray adhesive.

- Newspapers.

- Scissors.

- Masking tape.

- Regular staple gun and staples. You can use a desk stapler.

- Tape measure.

- Pencil.

Getting Started
You’re going to be working with spray adhesive that can harm the surface of your table or countertop, so be sure to cover your entire work surface by spreading out old newspapers. Use masking tape to protect the frame of your cork board, if it has a frame.

Spray a generous amount of adhesive onto the cork board’s surface. Be sure to shake the spray adhesive before spraying in order to mix up the contents.

Center the fabric that you have chosen on the cork board. Smooth the fabric into place by working from the center to the outer edges. Pull the fabric taught and press it firmly into place. Turn the edges of the fabric under, approximately two inches around the entire area. Use upholstery tacks to hold the fabric into place – put on in each corner and one midway up the height of each side, or in other strategic areas.

Using your staple gun in an unfolded position, stable the fabric edges approximately an eighth of an inch from the inside of the cork board’s frame. Continue stapling until the fabric is securely in place and then remove the upholstery tacks that were holding it there originally.

To place the ribbon on your photo board, divide the board into thirds or fourths, depending on the number of times that you want to crisscross it on the photo board, and mark the point on the board where the ribbon should start and stop with a pencil. Staple the ribbon at the top center of the board, and then pull it diagonally across the board, stapling it into place. Cut ribbon as closely as possible to the staple. Continue to crisscross and staple the ribbon until the board is completely finished. Outline the inside frame of the corkboard with ribbon to hide the staples, and secure the ribbons with the upholstery tacks where each ribbon intersects. Place tacks at each intersections, and remove the masking tape that you had initially placed on the cork board to protect it.

Herbal Pot-Pourri

Pot-pourri is a very traditional aromatic accessory for the home and many recipes have been handed down through the generations. There are several ways to make pot-pourri. The oldest method is for a moist pot-pourri where layers of rose petals, spices and salt are arranged in a large crock and left to rot down for six weeks or more. The strength of scent is excellent but the visual appearance is not good (the salt bleaches out all the color in the rose petals). That is why traditional pot-pourri jars are closed, with holes for the fragrance to waft through.

A prettier finished effect is gained by mixing flowers and herbs with essential oils and a fixative, such as orris root. This is also a fairly lengthy method but the finished effect can be lovely, particularly if some flowers are dried with silica gel and placed on top for decoration.

As most of the projects here are for sachets or other items where the herbs are hidden away behind some fabric, the look of the finished pot-pourri is not of paramount importance. The main point is that the scent should be strong and long-lasting. When making small sachets it helps to use fairly small ingredients of an even size, so there are no unsightly lumps and bulges in the sachets. The best answer for this is to use small sprigs of dried herbs and flowers with a much larger proportion of fixative.

Many recipes call for powdered orris root, but I use cut and sifted orris or blue flag root instead, as I find the powder spoils the outward appearance of pot-pourri. However, as the recipes here are mainly for use on sachets, either powdered or cut orris root will do.

Many of the recipes here can easily be altered to suit whatever ingredients you have available. Once you have made several batches of your own pot-pourri you will become more courageous and want to experiment. It is easy to make up your own recipes just keep to the basic guidelines on quantities of ingredients.

Orris Root and Oil Mixture

As a general note, I use a measuring jug when measuring out the various dry ingredients, unless they are measured by the spoonful. The orris root is best mixed with the essential oil first and put into a small screw-top jar to mature for a couple of days. If you are intending to make several types of pot-pourri, I would suggest you build up a collection of jars with different orris root and essential oil mixtures which you can use as you wish.

Mix the oil and orris root in the proportions of 4 oz orris root to 1/2 fl oz essential oil. Once it has matured for a couple of days you can use it by the tablespoonful as indicated in the recipes. Make sure that you label the jars clearly, stating the particular essential oil you have used. The collection of orris root/oil jars can then sit in a neat row on your kitchen shelf or worktop, where you can shake them occasionally to encourage the mixing process. Avoid storing them in strong sunlight as it will reduce the strength of the essential oils.

Delicious Mint and Cinnamon Pot-Pourri

1/2 pint cinnamon pieces
1/2 pint mint leaves, crumbled
2 tbsp cinnamon/orris mixture
1 tbsp apple/orris mixture
1/2 tbsp mint/orris mixture

Use a large mixing bowl and mix together all the ingredients. As these recipes are mainly destined for use in sachets, you should break the cinnamon pieces up fairly small. Having mixed it well, turn the mixture into a large jar or polythene bag and seal. Put it away for two to four weeks, shaking it regularly to ensure even distribution of the oil mixtures. Check the smell after two weeks; if the aroma seems satisfactory you can use it, but if not, you should wait another couple of weeks. If you are still not happy with the smell, try adding other orris root/oil mixes until you like the balance of the fragrance.

Hop Pillows

For centuries, hop pillows have been popular remedies for combating insomnia and promoting restful sleep. Originally, mattresses would have been filled with grasses and herbs, which is why the plant Galium ordorata is commonly known as ‘ladies bedstraw’ or ‘hedge bedstraw’. From there we progressed to stuffing pillows and mattresses with down and horsehair, but the smell of the grasses was replaced by an herbal pillow. During the Victorian era, herb pillows were much favored, particularly ones made from lavender and roses.

Although it is traditional to slip herb pillows into the main pillowcase and therefore keep them out of sight, they look best when decorated with plenty of lace and ribbons, especially if you are giving them as a present.

Many fabrics can be used for making pillows, ranging from plain calico that can be slipped into the main pillowcase to antique linens and lace that give a really luxurious effect and deserve to be left on show. The two most popular scents for inducing sleep are hops and lavender, but these fragrances do not blend well together so choose one or the other. Both of these recipes smell heavenly and will help you drift off into scented sleep.

Sweet Hop and Spice Mix

2 pints dried hops
2 tbsp allspice
2 tbsp orange peel, dried
2 tbsp lemon balm leaves
1 tbsp allspice/orris mixture
1 tbsp neroli (orange blossom)/orris mixture

Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl and place in a large jar or polythene bag. Seal and put away in a dark place for two to four weeks, shaking occasionally to help the mixing process.

Victorian Flower Sleep Mix

3/4 pint dark red or pink scented rose petals
1/2 pint elderflowers
1/2 pint lavender flowers
1/4 pint rosemary leaves (they keep away evil spirits!)
5 tbsp rose/orris mixture
3 tbsp lavender/orris mixture

Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl and place in a large jar or polythene bag. Seal and put away in a dark place for two to four weeks, shaking occasionally to help the mixing process.

Making a Hop Pillow

To make a hop pillow, you will need the following ingredients:

1/2 yard muslin
Sweet Hop and Spice Mix
1/2 yard plain or patterned cotton lace or ribbons

Cut out two pieces of muslin, each approximately 14×12 inches and machine or sew by hand around three sides. Turn right sides out and fill with the hop mix, then stitch up the fourth side firmly by hand. Now cut out two pieces of the cotton, slightly larger than the muslin and allowing extra for seams approximately 16×14 inches. Placing right sides together, machine sew around three sides, incorporating the lace if you wish at this stage. Turn right sides out, then turn under the seam allowance on the fourth side and place the hop pillow inside. Finish the last edge by hand with neat oversewing stitches. You can then decorate the pillow with lace or ribbons.

When the fragrance of the hop pillow begins to fade, all you have to do is remove the inner filling, replace the hop mix with a new batch and then sew up the pillow again. This is quicker and easier than having to replace loose contents in the cotton pillow.

Handkerchief Pillow

The easiest way of all to make a pretty square sleep pillow is to use pretty lace-edged handkerchiefs. Most of the work is done for you then, and a pretty pillow can be made in a very short time.

You will need:

4 lace-edged handkerchiefs
1/2 yard plain white cotton lawn or cotton
1/2 yard muslin

Join the four handkerchiefs together in a square by oversewing the edges or using a zigzag stitch on a sewing machine. Cut the cotton backing to the same size as the square of four handkerchiefs and then turn in the edges by the depth of the lace so the square fits the fabric area of the four handkerchiefs. Machine-stitch around three sides of the fabric, leaving the lace free and one side open. Make a square muslin pillow as described for the hop pillow and fill with any of the sachet mixes the Victorian flowers mix might be the most suitable. Insert the muslin pad and close the pillow with small slip stitches. You can decorate the top of the cushion with some ribbon bows if you wish.

Small Perfumed Sachets

Smaller sachets have many uses; they can be tucked in drawers and cupboards, or used to scent linen cupboards or lingerie. There is nothing more glamorous than a drawer that exudes a lovely floral aroma whenever it is opened. Desks can benefit from sharper scents if work has to go on through the night, a sachet filled with basil to relieve tiredness, or cardamom to help concentration, might be appropriate.

To sleep in bedlinen scented with the sweet smell of lavender has long been a luxury. The easiest way to make little sachets to give as presents, or to use yourself, is to buy a collection of pretty lace-edged handkerchiefs. Place a couple of tablespoons of one of the mixtures in the center of each handkerchief, gather up the edges and tie with pretty ribbons to make an elegant and fragrant bundle.

If you wish to use a printed or plain fabric, you can cut out two pieces of fabric of the size you require, with a small allowance for seams. Sew around three sides of the main sachet and similarly on two slightly smaller pieces of muslin. Turn the muslin right sides out, fill with pot-pourri and sew up the fourth edge by hand. Turn the cotton sachet right sides out, insert the muslin sachet and sew up the fourth edge by hand. It is not essential to make the muslin liner but it does save time when renewing the sachet as you can throw away the old sachet and replace it with a new one. A liner also reduces the likelihood of the oils staining the outer cover.

Padded Coat Hangers with Fragrant Sachets

Another luxury with a practical purpose is a padded coat hanger that has a matching sachet hanging from its center. Padded hangers are much kinder to clothes than ordinary wire ones and are less likely to leave hanger marks on delicate fabrics. The sachet can be hung inside the article of clothing, making it fresh and fragrant the next time it is worn. You can either use a flowery pot-pourri mix or the moth chaser recipe, which will keep away moths and help to protect woolen clothing in particular.

You will need:

6 wooden coat hangers
1/2 yard wadding
1/2 yard printed cotton
2 yards 1/2-inch wide ribbon
matching cotton
extra ribbon for bows

Cut a strip of wadding 36×2 inches and wind it around a coat hanger, stitching it securely at each end. To cover the hook, fold 1 inch of ribbon over at the end and then bind the remaining ribbon tightly all the way down the hook. Stitch the end of the ribbon to the wadding at the base of the hook, then cut off the surplus ribbon.

Cut out a piece of the fabric about 4 3/4 inches wide and slightly longer than the hanger, then fold it in half lengthwise with the right sides together. Stitch across both short ends. Turn to the right side. Neaten the raw edges on the long sides by folding the seam allowance over and pressing or tacking it into position. Press a crease line along the bottom of the casing.

Place the wadding-wrapped hanger inside the fabric casing, with the open edges along the top of the hanger. Pin in position while working. Join the seam edges with running stitch, leaving the cotton loose at the end. Also sew running stitches along the bottom crease and again leave the cotton loose at the end. Pull both ends of the hanging threads to form gathers all along the hanger, then secure the threads tightly. The hanger can now be decorated with a large or small bow. Make a matching sachet in the same way as for the small perfumed sachets, then hang it from the hook with some ribbon or lace.

Gentleman’s Mix

Most pot-pourri and sachet mixes are rather too feminine for a man’s wardrobe. So here is a mix that would suit most men and might appeal to some ladies as well!

1/4 pint lemon verbena leaves
1 tbsp mint leaves
1 tbsp cloves
1 tbsp rosemary
1/4 pint raspberry leaves
1 tbsp lemon/orris mixture
1 tbsp mint/orris mixture
1 tbsp oregano/orris mixture

Mix all the ingredients together in a large mixing bowl and place in a large jar or polythene bag. Seal and put away in a dark place for two to four weeks, shaking occasionally to help the mixing process.

There are a variety of things you can do to promote your business, and one really effective way is by giving away promotional products. If you really want to go that extra mile, why not cross-promote your business with a charity? The cost is minimal, and not only are you helping an organization with their fund raising, you are also creating even more popularity for your business by showing that you are community-minded.

There are a number of great charitable organizations out there just waiting for someone to help them raise money and awareness for their causes. One that is becoming more and more popular is the breast cancer awareness Pink Ribbon Campaign. Many organizations are doing their part to raise money for cancer research, and to help support patients during their medical battles, and they can use all the help they can get in promoting this campaign. By combining their efforts with your advertising, they can get their word out to an entirely new audience. Plus, for each of the items you purchase, a percentage of the cost goes directly to breast cancer research!

You can, as they say, kill two birds with one stone when you cross-promote with organizations such as the Pink Ribbon Campaign. For one thing, and probably the most important, you are doing your part to help a worthwhile cause (and also showing your clients that you care), and you are also advertising your business effectively and inexpensively. What more could you ask for?

Not only can you use promotional products to cross-promote your business with the Pink Ribbon Campaign, you and your employees can take part in a number of fund raisers for the cause. In doing so, you will be helping a great charity, and you will be seen doing it. Just think about how positive this kind of marketing could be for your business. Your company and its employees will be seen in the public eye as a group that cares about the community, and makes an effort to help.

Just about any promotional product you can think of, you can have personalized to include the Pink Ribbon along with your company information. You can offer pink products that have an image of the ribbon (these products could include coffee mugs, jewelry, clothing, and much more). You can offer key rings that have a Pink Ribbon charm, or give away actual pink ribbons that have your company name and logo imprinted on them. There are products made specifically for the Pink Ribbon Campaign that you can have your information printed on, or you can design your own pink products. Your options are pretty much limitless!

One of the most popular promotional products for breast cancer awareness today is the pink water bottle. There are a lot of people who keep bottled water with them pretty much all of the time, and by using a Pink Ribbon Campaign water bottle with your company logo on it, you and a great charity are being promoted!

So, if you are considering using promotional products to advertise your business, consider combining your efforts with the Pink Ribbon Campaign. You can be a part of helping a worthwhile cause, while showing your business in the best possible light.

Need: fabric (as many or few patterns as you choose!)
Scissors
Thread
Sewing machine
Ribbon (I used 7/8″ grosgrain)
Pattern for triangle- I made a ‘pattern’ for the triangle so I would make sure each triangle was the same size when I cut it out.

I cut out the triangle shapes from the selected fabrics. Two triangles per flag. I used the same fabric for each side for the triangle. You could use different fabrics for each side of the flag if you wanted, which could be fun because then the flag banner could be reversed and have a completely different look!

I then sewed the triangles together, right sides together. I used a ½” seam allowance, but I suppose it doesn’t really matter.

I trimmed the ‘point’ of the flag as close to the seam as I could. (One thing you can do on those points, is put fray check so that they are less likely to fray when you reverse them)

Turn the triangles right side out and press them flat.

Measure the ribbon to the desired length of the flag banner. I added about a foot on each side, for hanging purposes. You can add as much or as little ribbon on the ends as you would like. If you want extra ribbon on the ends to hang the banner or to tie it onto something, make sure you take that into account.

Cut two pieces of ribbon the desired length. I used two pieces of the same color grosgrain ribbon- one for the back, and one for the front. This allows you to cover the unfinished tops of the triangles! This also allows the banner to be reversible. If you want the banner to be different when reversed, you could use two colors of ribbon- one for each side. I’m going to try that next time!

Pin the ribbon on top of the triangle pieces, making sure the distance between each triangle is the same (I left about 1.5″ between each).

Sew the ribbon together, securing the triangles between the two pieces. I recommend sewing the bottom side together first, because it will allow you to secure the triangle pieces in place and make sewing the top half of the ribbon much easier.

Sew the top of the length of ribbon together.

Cut ends of ribbon to desired length (if one side is longer than the other).

Voila! You have a fun triangle flag banner to hang! Now that you have one, don’t you want to make another one?!

I believe it all started with chivalry. When the brave knight would ride into battle wearing the colors of his family, or the flag bearer leading the troops, his banner proudly held high for all to see, and no mistake to be made who they were fighting for.

Perhaps the Lady offering her Knight her colors at the beginning of a joust to show all present that he was her champion.

If you rode in the cavalry in the 19th century you might hear “She Wore a Yellow Ribbon” being sung as men rode to war, (or more than likely from John Wayne’s movie). Holding that one piece of home, a small reminder that someone cared. Someone was waiting for his return. Perhaps it started then.

In the 1970′s “Tie a Yellow Ribbon ‘Round the Ole Oak Tree” was popular. It sang of guy getting out of prison. Wondering against all odds, would his love still be waiting for him? If there was no yellow ribbon tied around the tree, he would “stay on the bus, forget about us”. Ahhhh, but when his bus arrived there were 100 yellow ribbons tied around the old oak tree.

Taking that to heart Penney Laingen, whose husband was being held hostage in Iraq tied yellow ribbons around the trees in her front yard. Friends and family followed suit and to this day we all know that someone is waiting for someone to come home when we see those yellow ribbons.

I don’t know about you but I know and relate to that feeling. One of the hardest things I ever had to do at the young age of 18 was take my new husband to the airport. We had to say goodbye, he left for Viet Nam. We waited 13 months and he returned. (Just as a side bar, we are celebrating our 44th anniversary this month, Oct. 2011.)

Take a look around the football stadium or basketball court. Our colors broadcast our champions. Win or lose they are our team, the other color is our rival those with whom we do battle.

Ribbons are no different. They boast our cause. They bring focus to our fight. They unite us as a team. Today there are days, weeks, months and colors encouraging us to remember. Remember those who won their battles and those who lost.

Regardless of when and who was responsible for the Awareness ribbons of today they still stand for strength, love and hope. Ribbons today let us collectively hold to the truth that we believe, care and still champion our causes by bringing Awareness to the public forefront. October is Breast Cancer Awareness month and time for your pink ribbons, but it is also a great month to remember those causes which are worth fighting for.
