In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: You don't need to be a master illustrator; a lot of designers use a funky personal style when they design. That said, you do need to be able to communicate your vision visually. Take a drawing class, study some books, or just practice, practice, practice. The most important part of learning any new skill is just doing it a lot. Set aside 30 minutes every day to practice drawing. A good book to reference is Mark Kistler's You Can Draw in 30 Days. Even if you don't want to be the one to actually sew your designs, you need to know about sewing. Understanding the possibilities presented by your medium is an important part of being able to come up with innovative, exciting ideas. Many craft stores like Jo-Ann Fabric offer relatively cheap sewing classes. Studying pattern making is a must if you intend to sew your own garments. You will need to know how a garment is physically assembled. Knowing how to break a design down into shapes is a crucial part of being able to sew a garment. Buy some simple patterns at a craft store to practice with. If you want to produce innovative designs, you have to know about design theory. Molly Bang's book Picture This: How Pictures Work is a great place to start. It will help you learn to think like a designer. Don't limit yourself to studying fashion design exclusively. The principles of design theory apply across all sorts of disciplines. It may surprise you how much studying something like typography can teach you about fashion design. If you want to design clothes, you may want to learn all you can about the world of fashion. You may think of yourself as a very stylish person, but knowing how to dress yourself well is only the tip of the iceberg. If you are designing based on what is hot right now, by the time your design is complete it might already be out of style. Professional fashion designers are constantly thinking ahead, to what the next big thing will be. Watch videos or look at pictures from high-profile fashion shows online, or go in person if one is happening near where you live. Professional designers design their seasonal collections months in advance, so these shows can give you an idea of what kinds of trends will be trickling down into commercial fashion in the future. There are more tools available to designers now than there ever have been before. On top of knowing your way around a sketchbook and a sewing machine, you will need to know your way around Adobe Photoshop and Illustrator. Websites like Linda.com or Tuts+ are good online resources. If you want to do your sketching on a computer instead of in a sketchbook, you will need to purchase a good pen tablet, such as a Wacom.
Summary: Learn about drawing. Learn about sewing. Learn about design. Learn about fashion. Learn about technology and resources.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: There are two main types of welding goggles: the type that looks like swimming goggles, and the type that look like safety or scuba goggles. Either will work for this project. The ones that look like swimming goggles, with two cups/short tubes attached by a short nose strap will look more authentic, however. Remove the straps, including the nose straps, if there are any. Pop the lenses out and remove any visors or shades. Pull off any other pieces, including rubber rims, etc. If there are any caps securing the lenses to the goggles, unscrew them first. If you can't remove the lenses, cover them with masking tape. Take the goggles to a well-ventilated area, preferably outside. Paint them with brass, copper, bronze, or dark gold spray paint. Allow each coat to dry first before applying the next one. Each brand of paint will be a little different, but in most cases, you'll only have to wait about 20 minutes or so. It is better to apply many light coats of paint rather than one thick coat; if you apply one thick coat, the paint may not dry properly and give you a tacky finish. If your goggles came with buckles, you can paint those to match your frames. If your goggles came with caps for attaching the lenses, consider painting them a lighter color for contrast, such as light gold or silver. Just because paint feels dry does not necessarily mean that it is completely dry and ready to use. Check your can, and read the label for complete drying and/or curing times. Using the goggles too soon may end up in the paint getting dented or scratched. You can do this with a dry brush and acrylic paint, or with metallic wax (ie: Rub 'n Buff). Apply your highlights to the raised areas, and shadows to the cracks and crevices. Be sure to let the goggles dry completely before moving onto the next step. Use a lighter shade than your base color for the highlight (ie: pale gold). Use dark copper, brown, or black for the shadows. You will be making new straps for the goggles, so all you have to do is pop the lenses back into the frames. If you covered the lenses with masking tape earlier, peel the tape off.
Summary: Purchase a pair of welding goggles. Take the goggles apart. Apply 2 to 3 light coats of spray paint to the goggle frames. Allow the paint to dry and cure completely. Consider adding some highlights and shadows. Reassemble the goggles but leave the straps off.

In one sentence, describe what the following article is about: Wearing bras that are too small or large can make your boobs appear smaller. Go shopping and ask for a bra size fitting at a lingerie store to learn your real size. Not only will they last longer, but better quality bras will fit better and help to enhance your boobs more. These bras will push your breasts up and out, making them appear to be larger. Try on different varieties to test their effect, as well as comfort. Tighter clothes will enhance the shape of your chest, while looser or flowing tops or dresses will make your chest seem shapeless.Be careful not wear clothes that are too tight though! Extra tight shirts may squash your boobs, leaving you worse off. Invest in silicon "chicken cutlets" that can help pad your bust, or if you're on a budget, use foam or other padding from around the house. Using a large brush, apply the makeup to the inner edges of your breasts, creating a contour and the illusion of shadow. Blend to make it appear more natural. Step back three feet and look in the mirror to make sure that your boobs look real, and not as if you've painted them on! Brush translucent powder over the contouring to help set the makeup and reduce shine.
Summary:
Wear the right size bra! Invest in good quality bras. Wear a push-up bra. Wear form fitting clothing. Try bra-cup inserts or "stuff" your bra. Use bronzer, or a makeup a shade darker than your skin tone to contour your breasts if your bra and clothes aren't doing enough.
