Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Buy a standard pack of washi. Use duo paper to add color layers. Try chiyogami paper for traditional designs. Add luster with foil paper.

Answer: Washi is a term that simply means "Japanese paper" and is usually used to describe the basic type of folding paper used to make origami shapes in Japan and overseas. Washi is made to fold easily and maintain its shape, and since it's a no-frills type of paper, it will probably work best for standard usages and beginners learning the ropes of origami. Washi comes in a square, standardized size and can be purchased in most craft stores around the world. Washi is the most common type of origami paper and will be the go-to choice for most projects. Named because of its coloration, duo paper is a basic paper type that features a different color on each side of the sheet. Choose duo paper when you're folding shapes that benefit stylistically from a certain color scheme (such as red and green for a rose), or if your purpose is to make the design more intricate by incorporating different layers of color. Care must be taken to fold duo paper correctly, as misalignments will be made more visible by the contrast in color. Chiyogami is another conventional Japanese origami paper. In most cases, it is basic washi, only bearing classical Japanese artwork, prints, and patterns. Chiyogami paper is more elaborate in appearance than other varieties, and is an available option should you wish to learn traditional Japanese shapes and folding styles. There are many traditional origami papers bearing classic Japanese aesthetics. In addition to basic chiyogami, there is yuzen, a particular variation of chiyogami that features prints inspired by popular fabrics from ancient Japan; momigami, fashioned from mulberry bark and known for its leathery texture; and shinwazome, a thick, brilliantly adorned paper with embossed patterns that is often used for more extravagant projects. Lend a little shine to your art by picking up some foil paper, which has a standard folding paper on one side and a thin layer of metallic foil on the other. Foil origami paper is sure to catch the eye as your designs sparkle with a gold, silver, or ruby glint. The foil will also help preserve your folds, as the pliable metallic layer holds a crease that won't spring back out of place. Another additional benefit of working with foil paper is that it allows the handler to fashion smooth curves in their designs that easily maintain their shape. It will be hard to hide mistakes made with foil paper, as the paper will remain crinkled even after it is smoothed out.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Cut felt for a soft touch. Choose any woven fabric for quilting. Create clothing accents like 3D fabric flowers. Use thin leather for jewelry or other embellishments.

Answer: Felt is especially nice to use for children's crafts because it's both soft and durable. Try cutting felt letters for your child so they can practice spelling. Or if you're making a card or gift for a child, attach felt die cuts to accentuate the item. Be careful when pulling the felt shape out of your die cut machine. If the felt didn't cut all the way through, you can break it by pulling too hard on an edge that's still attached to the rest of the felt. If you use patchwork patterns while quilting, using die cuts for your patches is a perfect way to go. You'll get a uniform shape in your patches without the tedious work of tracing and cutting them by hand. Choose thin woven fabrics like denim, silks, cottons, or twills in colors and patterns you like at your local craft store. Depending on your machine and the type of fabric, you may be able to cut several layers of fabric at a time to get more patches in less time. Using colorful patterned fabric from your local craft store, cut fabric flower shapes that are similar in shape but different sizes. After you cut each flower size, layer them from big to small, with the big one at the bottom and the smallest on top. Fold the layered flowers in half and sew them together right at the center using an overhand stitch. Next fold the flower in the opposite direction and make a few overhand stitches. This will create pinches in the fabric that give the flowers some dimension. Be sure to get through all the layers as you're sewing. When you're finished sewing the flower, sew a button at the center. You can then attach this flower to any jacket or other clothing items. Or you can make several matching flowers for the same piece of clothing for a cute customized look. Cut flower or star shapes into leather with your die cut machine to create cute leather jewelry. You can layer the leather shapes into designs for necklaces, bracelets, or earrings. Once your shapes are cut, you can add color with tints or inks, embroider designs with colorful thread, and make the leather shiny with a leather water sealant before attaching the design to your metal necklace, bracelet, or earring pieces.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Be modest, supportive, and helpful. Avoid seeing everything as a competition or a chance to prove yourself. Surround yourself with peers with similar ambitions and interests. Work and communicate with your teachers about your education. Try to be a balanced individual.

Answer: Try to always be humble when it comes to your abilities and help others. Be a model for other gifted students in how they should treat others. Help or tutor friends and peers who are struggling or need assistance. Be supportive of others in their academic work or in their effort to overcome their own limitations. Refrain from teasing others or making jokes about others' abilities. Don't brag or be arrogant about your abilities when dealing with other students. Approach intellectual activities as opportunities to learn, grow, and foster cooperation. While competition is good, if taken too far, it can create conflict and alienate you from other people. It is best to see academic activities homework, tests, writing papers as opportunities to cultivate your own gifts, rather than to beat or out compete other people. Try to find friends who share your commitment to knowledge and to cultivating your gifts. Avoid social connections that make you feel poorly about yourself, make others feel badly about themselves, or lead you toward activities that are counterproductive to your goals in life and as a student. You might also find it helpful and challenging to connect with people who are gifted in different areas from yourself. For example, if you have a gift for writing but struggle with chemistry, look for friends who excel in the sciences. Their enthusiasm might encourage your own interest and help you overcome your challenges. The best way to cultivate a healthy relationship with your teacher is to talk to them about issues concerning your education. Do this in a polite way so that the teacher can see that you are engaged in your education and want to take a proactive role in it. Have conversations with your teachers about areas that you are interested in, and ask how you might find opportunities to advance your knowledge in those areas. For example, you might say, "I loved our unit on the ancient world, and I really want to learn as much as I can about Mesopotamian art. Where would be the best place to start? What kind of college major should I choose if I want to eventually study ancient art in graduate school?" When socializing with others, don't always try to steer the conversation to what interests you and what you are good at. Move outside of your comfort zone, and engage others on topics or subjects that they are interested in as well. Remember, part of being a successful gifted student is interacting with other students and teachers in a healthy and well-balanced way.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Contact a local beekeeper or nonprofit group first. Reach out to a bee removal service if you can't find a local beekeeper. Contact an exterminator if the hive can't be removed.

Answer:
Go online and search for beekeepers in your area. Call each beekeeper to see if they are interested in the hive, even if they don't mention picking them up on their website. Beekeepers are experienced in safely removing bees without killing them and will happily relocate them. There are also nonprofit bee removal services that keep bees from becoming endangered in high-risk areas where their pollination skills are especially important. You normally won't need to pay a beekeeper to remove a hive. If you do, the fee won't be particularly high, although it depends on where you live. If there are no beekeepers or nonprofit groups in your area, call a bee removal service. You will have to pay to have the bees removed, but a bee removal service will remove the bees safely and thoroughly. Bee removal experts often sell or give away their hives and will not kill the bees unless absolutely necessary. If the hive is easily accessed and the swarm isn't particularly big, bee removal will cost $75-200. If drywall needs to be removed or the hive is in a tricky location, like a roof, it may cost up to $1,500. If removing the bees is not an option because the colony is inaccessible, contact a local exterminator. This is the worst option, since bees are good for the environment and the chemicals in commercial bee pesticides can damage a home, but you can certainly hire an exterminator to kill the bees if it's the only way to have them removed. An exterminator will cost roughly $200-300, but a new colony is more likely to return if the exterminator doesn't remove the hive or handle it properly. Make sure that you hire an exterminator with experience removing bees. If a large number of bees die and their corpses are not removed, they will break down and leave a particularly funky odor behind that will take some time to get rid of.
