While the wheel first came into existence thousands of years ago in ancient Mesopotamia, travel within the southwestern Asian region during that time period often involved a lot more walking than anything else. In terms of transportation for human beings, wheels definitely weren't an overnight success.
Walking Rainbow Experiment More Rainbows for March! This experiment is a super easy set up and gives a good opportunity for observation over time! Kiddos will love this colorful experiment and be excited to see this fun way to mix colors! Find more about this experiment here! Materials ready! It was recommended to use select a size paper towels. They are much easier to fold into the correct form! And you only need 3 cups of colored water to start this experiment! All set up and the colored water is already starting to absorb into the paper towels. More water is being absorbed! This is a bit into the experiment...around a half hour. So this is a slow experiment and great to observe! Some colored water begins to fill an empty cup! Wonder what color the colored waters will make when they mix in this cup? Colors mixing! It's making purple, green, and orange! Wow! It's really neat to look at the experiment from above! Want to pair this experiment with a book? Try A Rainbow of My Own Grab it on Amazon!

Many moons ago - in what seems like another life - I followed my heart to Ireland and made leather bags, purses and wallets for about 5 years. I don't think I ever enjoyed the leather-working process, but the results were always very satisfying. My relationship with leather hasn't changed since then. I'm a textiles gal at heart, but sometimes I think something will look good made in leather... so I make it. It's a quirky, tricksy material to wrangle - and completely unforgiving if you make a mistake. I'm not a fan. However, I'm often asked for tips to make the job easier, so here goes... 1. Before you mark out your pattern placement, examine the hide and look out for scars, holes and imperfections. You have to remember that these hides were once on animals - walking around in fields (or barbed-wire-fenced paddocks, if you're in Australia) and scars are are random feature. You don't want to cut out a pattern piece, only to have a hole or other imperfection spoil it (and have no hide left to re-cut). 2. You can't pin leather, so (unless you have a clicking press and press-knives), cardboard patterns and pattern-weights are the way to go. Trace around the patterns with with a special silver pen (or ... ummm.... a plain ballpoint pen or rotary cutter, if you're as completely reckless as I am). NOTE: Garment weight leather can usually be cut easily with a sharp rotary cutter or scissors. Some people use a stanley knife and steel ruler (but I've nearly lost fingers doing that, so I can't recommend it). 3. Garment-weight leather can usually be sewn on a domestic sewing machine - as long as there is not too much bulk in the seams. It's best if you use a walking foot, wheel/roller foot or teflon presser foot on your machine. (The teflon feet below are actually from my industrial machine - I don't own a domestic version). 4. You can purchase special "leather" sewing machine needles, which will penetrate the leather more efficiently than normal machine needles and form a nice even stitch. Well worth it. 5. Use pure nylon (if you can get it) or polyester upholstery weight thread. Any cotton content in the thread can deteriorate with age. Synthetics are strong and durable (and the raw ends can be melted into the seam end to seal them). 6. Interfacing can be fused to leather if you need to add a bit of structure - use a rajah cloth to protect your iron and the leather. Cut the interfacing shorter than the seam allowances to reduce bulk. 7. Pressing seams open can be a bit tricky - garment leather generally doesn't hold a sharp crease well. Use double-sided tape to hold seams flat. (Although, try not to overdo the tape on areas that will later be stitched - it can gunk up your needle). I prefer to flat stitch seams open from the right side of fabric. ..and then trim away the excess seam allowance to reduce as much bulk as possible. 8. Once the going gets tough - lots of converging seams, uneven bulk beneath the presser foot and layers of springy leather under the needle - you may find that your machine skips stitches. Try changing to a new (sharper) needle and use a teflon presser foot rather than a walking foot (I had to change machines in order to use the teflon foot). 9. If you have one of these little plastic gadgets (they come in different shapes and sizes and have different brand names), you will see just how useful it can be at moments like this. By sliding the plastic gadget under the presser foot, you can even out the pressure on the feed dogs of the machine, which will pull the leather through. 10. I'd like to make a 10th tip, just to be neat and decimal about things.... but I'll leave this one open as a question.... Do YOU have any leatherworking tips or questions to add to these? ...So anyway, what was all this leather-sewing business about...? I was cold. I think I look just about ready to join the French Resistance... although I believe I'm a tad late.

This state-of-the-art construction technology provides 5 layers for superior comfort (great for your legs and back), noise reduction (sound between and within rooms), and thermal insulation (for energy efficiency). Cork is actually better than wood and vinyl at retaining heat - and provides an optimal floor temperature by insulating against cold subfloors. It's comfortable to walk on, even barefoot, all year long. We recommend this line of cork flooring as a sustainable and healthy alternative to luxury vinyl plank (LVP) flooring. Thanks to new technology, there's a healthier way to build a rigid core without PVC and other harmful components. With Amorim's WISE line, you get an enhanced rigid core construction for both dimensional stability and protection against water PLUS the natural benefits of cork flooring in a floating floor that clicks and easily locks into place. A water-resistant floating cork floor designed for high traffic and high moisture areas - that's safe for the whole family. Just the way we like it here at Greenhome - healthy for you and the planet!

WISE features an engineered multilayer structure that consists of a quality, PVC-free and water-resistant rigid core layer of cork and an integrated cork underlay: Cork Benefits Silence Natural Thermal Insulation Walking Comfort Impact Resistance Cork acts as a noise buffer between the floor and the rooms underneath because of its acoustically insulating properties - reducing that noisy foot traffic sound by up to 53%. And cork easily cuts noise within a room as well. This is especially beneficial in apartments or other areas more susceptible to outer sounds. Optimal floor temperature throughout the year thanks to its ability to hold warmth. Its thermal insulating properties create a barrier between the cold subfloor and the comfortable temperature of your home. And BONUS...we've noticed the added benefit of energy cost savings because of it! Cork provides a unique comfort in movement, even when walking barefoot, due to its natural softness and flexibility. It's also very forgiving on your legs and back, which is why we like to put it in rooms where you may be standing for longer periods of time, like the kitchen. Or "cushy" as we like to call it. Cork flooring has a long life span thanks to its elasticity and compressibility, which allows it to "give" without damaging the structure. It literally springs back from hard impacts! That means Grandma's china has a much better chance of staying intact when dropped. Why Cork? Durability Sustainability Fire Retardant Hypoallergenic Cork has been used as flooring in buildings like the Harvard Law Library and the Library of Congress due to its durability. It resists cracking & scuff marks and is airtight to gas and liquid, yet still breathable. When properly maintained, cork flooring can last 40 years or more! Cork (or more accurately, bark) harvesting is an eco-friendly process that's done without cutting down or destroying a single tree. And there are strict time limits on the extraction period. During its long lifetime - upwards of 200 years - the tree is continually regenerating bark, which makes the cork forest industry an ideal example of renewable production. Cork is also a natural fire retardant thanks to its unique cell structure and waxy, fire-resistant substance called suberin. It gives a very low conductivity to heat. And it burns without a flame and does not emit toxic gases during combustion. Cork is a great option for allergy sufferers because it's naturally mold and mildew-resistant due to the waxy substance inherent in cork. AND it's anti-microbial. Cork is a healthy alternative to dust and allergen-collecting carpets. How to Maintain Your Cork Flooring Amorim floors are easy to maintain. You only need a mild, pH-neutral cleaner and a vacuum cleaner (or even a broom handle with a cloth on the end will do the trick). For general spills, you can use a damp mop. For deep cleaning, use a mild pH-neutral cleaner. Download the maintenance instructions here. How to Repair Your WISE 2G Floating Floor You have a couple of options here. You can repair the floor by removing only the damaged plank or you can choose to uninstall all the planks until you reach the damaged one. Download the instructions for both options here. MOLDINGS AND TRIMS ARE AVAILABLE (SOLID WOOD ACCESSORIES ARE STAINED TO COORDINATE) - PLEASE CALL 888-447-9877 FOR DETAILS!
