Q: You can host the party indoors at your home if you plan to have a smaller guest list of around 20-30 people. If you plan to invite more than 50 people, you may want to consider renting an indoor venue, such as a jazz club, a restaurant, or a community hall. You may go for an indoor venue if the weather is going to be unpredictable or too cold for your guests on the day of the party. If you know you are going to have good weather for the party, consider an outdoor venue like your backyard or a park. Outdoor venues were popular in the 1920s. You can also rent out the patio at a local restaurant or an outdoor garden. It may be fun to find an outdoor venue where you can put up white tents so guests can enjoy the weather without being directly in the sun or the elements all party long. A Great Gatsby party will be the most atmospheric at night. Parties in the 1920s were often scheduled late at night, going until the early morning. Make the start time for the party in the evening, such as 8 o'clock or 9 o'clock. Expect guests to arrive fashionably late. Having the party later at night will also give you time to prepare for the party that day. Go for a black and gold theme for the invitations to make them more Gatsby-esque. Choose art deco patterns and gold glitter. Pick font that is slim and glamorous looking. You can make your own invitations using your computer or an online invitation site. Send out the invitations at least two weeks before the party date. You can also order custom invitations from online print and design shops. For example, you may write, "The party is on Thursday, March 4, at the Kelly Jazz Bar, from 8 pm to 1 am." You can also include a note about the theme of the party, such as, "Please join us for a Great Gatsby Party." Ask your guests to dress up based on the theme. Suggest flapper dresses, pearls, feathers, dapper suits, and silk scarves. Encourage your guests to dress in their best Gatsby style outfits for the party. You may note that dressing up is optional, but recommended in the invitation.
A: Get an indoor venue for a smaller party. Go for an outdoor venue based on the weather. Schedule the party for the evening. Send out custom invitations. Note the time, date, and place of the party in the invitations. Request Gatsby-esque attire from guests.

Q: Press the paper towel into the affected area to soak up as much of the wet paint as you can. This will minimize the severity of the stain it leaves behind. Work from the outside of the spot inward, folding the paper towel periodically to make sure you're using a clean section. Don't wipe or scrub the spot, as this will only spread the paint around and enlarge the stain. An absorbent towel will work even better for soaking up the wet paint. Dig out an old one, however, because it will likely be permanently stained afterwards. Add a few drops of a mild liquid dish soap to a container of warm water and stir. For best results, use a standard detergent or even hand soapanything stronger may damage the leather. Avoid soaps and detergents that are advertised as "extra strength" or contain "grease-fighting" agents. These typically contain harsh additives that can strip the color the color from dyed leather and cause cracking or splitting. Soap and water will be useful for cleaning most water-based paints, including interior color and arts and crafts paint. Dip the brush into the soap solution, then shake off the excess water. Wet the paint spot and begin scrubbing it gently. After a few minutes, wipe the area with a clean towel and resume scrubbing. Repeat until the stain has been removed completely. An old toothbrush or nylon dish scrubber will work well for this purpose. Use just enough force to coax out the stain. Otherwise, you may leave noticeable scratches or scuffs. Since leather is a natural material, it's especially susceptible to water damage. You'll want to make sure that you've dried the surface thoroughly once the paint is all gone. If you don't, the residual moisture can cause the leather to crack, split or blister. To dry leather safely and effectively, pat it with a microfiber towel or soft kitchen sponge. Consider treating the surface with a specialty conditioner. A good leather conditioner will enhance the color and texture of leather items while protecting them from spills and other accidents in the future.
A: Blot at the paint with a paper towel. Mix up a gentle soap solution. Go over the stain with a stiff-bristled brush. Dry the leather with a towel.

Q: It'll have an orange rind with orange spikes. Squeeze it slightly to make sure it has some give and isn't rock hard and green. If you can't find a fully ripened fruit at the store, wait for it to turn orange before eating it. While you won't be eating the outside, it's always a good idea to rinse fruit you're planning on cutting, to avoid any pesticides or other chemicals on the outside when you cut into it with a knife. Set one half aside. This is the best way of cutting the fruit for eating it by itself. If you want to scoop the seeds out for use in a recipe or fruit salad, it can be easier to scoop if you cut it lengthwise. It's up to you.
A: Choose a kiwano that is fully ripened. Give it a rinse. Cut the fruit in half short-ways, across the equator.

Q: For a professional finish and ease of production, buy a full button press. They aren't that much money and it will make the work a lot easier, if you need to make several hundred buttons. You can also buy a hand-held cheap version but this produces a cheap-looking button. You can also get paper cutters which will further streamline the process. Just make sure it's the right size for your machine. You'll need the disk, the back, and the clear plastic front. Make sure it is for a button machine and make sure it is for the same size button that your machine produces. Print and cut out the image that you want on your button. Make sure the image you have is the right size for the button casing and then print it out on regular paper. Cut out the images as perfectly as you can. Make sure the machine is in the starting position. Place the back piece in the circular nest, backside facing down and the line of the pin horizontal. The disk should be placed in next, bowl or underside-side down. The image should be facing up and aligned correctly with the pin. Place the plastic on top of the image. Press down on the lever until you hear a click. Switch the machine into the second position. Press down firmly. There may not be a click. Lift the lever again and your button should be complete. There may be a release switch to make it easier to remove the button from the nest.
A:
Buy a button press. Get the metal casing. Prepare the image. Place the backing in the machine. Place the disk in the machine. Place the image. Place the clear plastic. Press down. Lift the lever. Press down again. Enjoy your button.
