Q: You can also use newspaper or an old bed sheet. If you're going to keep your supplies on a stand or table, make sure you cover that too so dye doesn't get on them. Make sure the container you use is big enough to hold your shirt. There should be enough water in the container that you'll be able to fully submerge your shirt. Read the instructions on the back of your fabric dye to find out how much dye you should use. If the container says it can dye 2 pounds (0.91kg) of fabric, and your shirt is 1 pound (0.45kg), you would use half the container of dye. You can find a fabric dye in a color of your choice online or at your local fabric store. Keep in mind the color may turn out differently than it looks on the bottle depending on the fabric your shirt's made out of and how long you keep it in the dye bath for. The salt will make it easier for the fabric in your shirt to absorb the dye. Add cup (118.3 mL) of salt per 1 pound (0.45kg) of fabric you're dyeing. Stir the salt into the dye bath using a spoon. For example, if your shirt weighs 2 pounds (0.91kg), you would add 1 cup (236.6 mL) of salt.
A: Lay down a tarp in your work area. Fill a large plastic container with 1 gallon (3.8l) of water. Pour a fabric dye in a color of your choice into the plastic container. Add table salt to the dye bath.

Q: One of the best ways to conceal under eye shadows is to cover them with something yellow-tinted. Because banana powder has a yellow tint to it, you can use it to conceal mild under eye shadows. If your under eye shadows are very dark, use a yellow-tinted cream concealer first, then set it with banana powder. This powder may be too dark for people with fair to medium skin. It's better for those with dark skin. Ben Nye banana powder has a yellowish tint to it. Because of this, you can use it to tone down pink undertones if you have cool, fair skin. You can also use it to tone down gray undertones if you have medium or dark skin. Use a powder brush to apply it to the areas that get shiny, such as your nose and forehead. You can apply this powder over your daily foundation, or over a bare face, without any makeup. A light dusting of banana powder should be enough for more people. If you are especially prone to oil, use the method described in the previous section. Setting powder is great for reducing shine and helping your makeup last longer. Unfortunately, it also has a tendency to make fine lines and pores more visible. If you are running into these sorts of problems with your regular powder, switch it out for the Ben Nye banana powder instead. This powder is finely-milled, so it won't cake up on your face and make fine lines and pores visible. Blush is one of the last things you apply when doing your makeup. If you apply too much blush, don't worry--you don't have to start over. Simply use a clean powder brush to apply a light dusting of banana powder over your blush to help tone it down. Remember to blend the powder in past the outer edges of your blush.
A: Use the powder as a concealer under your eyes. Use banana powder if you want to adjust your skin undertone. Absorb excess oils and reduce shine with banana powder. Use the powder if you want to reduce pores or fine lines. Fix overzealous blush application with a light dusting of banana powder.

Q: The sugar needs to be added slowly during whipping. The eggs should whip to a soft peak, creating a foam consistency of tiny air cells. This is done by adding the sugar as you whip the butter. The end result should have an even, creamy consistency, free of lumps. This works best by alternating the addition of liquid and dry ingredients in stages. Be careful to keep the egg white texture as airy as possible. This will help with the light, airy texture. This allows the leavening process to begin and the dry ingredients to hydrate properly, which will yield the best results in the oven. This is important for cupcake volume and texture. Be sure to leave room for the cupcakes to rise.
A: Whip the eggs with half of the sugar, any extracts and cream of tartar (if using) first. Cream the butter or shortening with the rest of the sugar. Mix the other dry ingredients well. Add the dry ingredients and liquid while mixing them in to the creamed butter/sugar mixture. Fold in the egg whites using a wide and flat spatula. Let the batter rest for 10 minutes at room temperature. Fill the cupcake pan or liners and bake them for the recommended time.

Q: The strike plate, or metal piece on the jam where the door latches, might be placed too low or too high. This should always be the first thing you check when identifying a door that's not closing correctly. Look for marks on the strike plate that show the latch going above or below the hole. If you see these marks, use a metal file to file down the hole of the strike plate to make it lower or higher so that the latch can go in. If that wasn't your problem, then the problem is probably with your hinges. They are probably uneven, with one being too far in or out from the jam. Close the door as much as possible and look for uneven lines. The gaps all around the door should be the same all the way across (along the hinge line, at the top of the door, bottom of the door, and on the side of the door with the latch). The easiest option is the just adjust the center hinge, but you'll probably want to adjust either the top or the bottom hinge depending on the situation, since this should have the most impact. No matter which hinge you need to fix, the process is the same. Unscrew that hinge so that you can access the jam behind it. Cut a piece of milk carton or thin cardboard to the shape of the hinge recess and place it there. Return the hinge flap and screw it into place. Usually, if there's a gap on the top latch side, you'll need to adjust the bottom hinge. If the door is bumping up against the top latch side of the jam, you'll need to adjust the top hinge.
A:
Check your strike plate. Check the hinges. Adjust the hinge.
