Article: You'll need three terracotta flower pots and a clay saucer. They should be the following sizes: 12 inch (30.48 cm), 14 inch (35.56 cm), and 16 inch (40.64 cm). In addition, purchase a clay saucer with a diameter of 20 inches (50.8 cm). Purchase constructional adhesive as well. You will need it to glue the saucer on top of the terracotta pots. Purchase polyurethane sealer and paint, if you choose to decorate your birdbath. Polyurethane sealer can give your birdbath a nice shine and help protect it from the elements. With paint, you can give your birdbath a beautiful design of your own making. Use cardboard to sand away rough edges on the outside of the pot. Rub jagged edges until they are smooth. Do this to give the surface a protective shine. Stir the polyurethane and then apply it to a paint brush. Run the brush over the pot to apply a light coat of sealer, with no clumps or dripping sealant. Allow it to dry in the sun and then sand off any imperfections in the coat. This step Is not absolutely necessary, but will add to the visual appeal and longevity of the bath. You can paint the pots with original designs to make the bath look more appealing. While the pots are stacked, draw a line where the pots meet with a pencil, so you know what will be visible and what won't. Apply polyurethane sealant afterward to protect your paint job. Once you draw the line, you will know what isn't visible and can save yourself the time of painting areas that will be covered up. You can paint the pots different colors or the same. With the lines, you will know where they meet, so you can even paint designs that cross over from one pot to the other. The bath will hold up longer if it is not placed directly on the dirt. A wooden patio or level piece of stone is ideal. Place the largest pot on the bottom, with the opening on the ground. Place the other pots on top of it, largest to smallest. Apply construction adhesive to the area where the saucer would rest on top of the smallest pot. Allow it to dry for 24 hours and then check if is secure. You do not need to glue the pots together. They should be secure without applying glue. If you don't glue them together, you can deconstruct and move the birdbath easier. Once the lid is secure, fill it with water to bring the birds over. Consider placing one or two small rocks in the saucer so that the birds have a sense for the depth of the water. This will make them more likely to make use of their new amenity.

Article: Center the wheel before you start to install the cover. Slide the top of the steering wheel cover over the top of the wheel and slide it over the wheel as much as you can. Position the cover so that the seam is centered over the bottom of the wheel. Use your fingers and stretch the cover over one side. Then, alternate to the other side and stretch that side over. Work your way incrementally down the wheel until the entire cover is attached. You may have to pull hard on the cover to get it to stretch over the wheel. Once you're done sliding the cover over as much as you can, you'll probably find resistance near the bottom of the wheel. Use as much force as you can to get the final part of the cover fitting snugly over the wheel. Once you've fit it over the bottom, you've successfully fit your steering wheel cover. You can get a friend to hold the wheel straight if you are having trouble getting the cover on. To reposition the cover, take it off your wheel and repeat the process.

Fit the top of the cover over the top of the wheel. Stretch out both sides so that the cover fits over the wheel. Pull the bottom of the cover over the wheel.
Article: If you brush your teeth too roughly, over time it can cause your gums to recede. Brushing gently with a soft bristled brush can allow your gums the ability to recover. There are some electric toothbrushes that will give you a warning when you are pushing too hard. If you have a history of brushing too hard, this might be a good product to invest in. If you have receding gums, it may be caused by a lack of basic dental care. If you haven't been brushing, start brushing twice a day. This will minimize the buildup of bacteria and food debris around your gum line, which will allow your gums to grow back. Be sure to use a toothpaste that has fluoride in it. If you really want to keep your teeth clean, begin brushing your teeth after each meal. Flossing daily will remove food debris, bacteria, and plaque build up from between your teeth. This will allow the gums in between your teeth to remain healthy. There are also special picks and brushes that your dentist may recommend for cleaning between your teeth. If you are grinding or clenching your teeth, the force you are creating can make your gums recede. To soften this force and allow your gums to regenerate, start wearing a bite guard. Signs that you are grinding your teeth include a sore jaw or face, chipped or flattened teeth, tooth pain, and an unexplained headache. Many people choose to wear their bite guard at night, when teeth grinding can occur involuntarily. If you are suffering from dry mouth, it can also increase the likelihood that your gums will recede. To increase your saliva production, try chewing sugar-free gum regularly or talk to your doctor about medications that can help increase the amount of saliva you are producing. Saliva protects the gums from bacteria and plaque build up, so having too little of it can impact your gum health.

Brush your teeth more gently. Brush your teeth twice a day. Floss once a day. Wear a bite guard. Improve your saliva production.
