Article: People are more attracted to you if you're nice to them. Smile or say, "Hi" to people when you pass them. Similarly, memorize a set of questions you can ask someone to spark a conversation with anyone. Additionally, offer help if you notice someone who needs it. Acknowledging people and smiling at them is all it takes to seem friendly. If you're not sure what kinds of questions to ask, you might use, "Seen any good movies lately?" "Any fun plans for the weekend?" or "How's your week going so far?" When you're having fun, you appear most attractive. Additionally, having hobbies makes you look like a more engaging, well-rounded person. It helps you be more interesting, which, in turn, makes you more attractive. For example, join a band, go bowling, write poetry, enjoy concerts, or join a recreational sports team. If you're not sure what you like to do, try out different things until something feels right. As a side bonus, you'll also boost your confidence when you do what you love! Being different makes you seem more alluring and attractive, so play up what separates you from the crowd. Maybe you have an obsession with pop-culture inspired desserts or like to upcycle soda cans into jewelry. Whatever it is that you do, show it off! Being unique or quirky doesn't mean that you're the only one who does something, so don't feel pressured to do something no else has ever done. For example, collecting typewriters is something unique, but you aren't the only person who does it. People will be attracted to you if you seem to care about them. Ask them questions about themselves, and listen to their stories. When they share something with you, show your appreciation by acknowledging what they've shared and giving a kind response. For instance, let's say someone told you a story about their vacation. You might say, "Wow, that trip sounds so fun. Thanks for sharing your travel recommendations with me." No matter how exciting you are as a person, you can undo it all by being to critical of yourself. Instead of sharing your flaws, highlight what's great about you. Similarly, tell stories that present you in your best life. This helps people see you at your best. For instance, don't tell people you're having a bad hair day. Instead, focus on something that's going well. You might say, "I'm so proud of myself because I got to work 5 minutes early today." Along this same line, accept compliments with grace instead of telling people why they're wrong. If someone says, "You look great!" Say, "Thank you so much! I was just about to say the same thing about you!"

ric. Your fabric needs to be completely wrinkle-free. This will help to ensure that the bias binding strips look neat when you sew them onto the edges of your project. Iron your fabric to get rid of any wrinkles before you begin working with it. Depending on the type of fabric, you may need to pre-wash and dry it before ironing it. For example, if your fabric is one that will likely shrink the first time you wash it, such as cotton, then pre-washing is recommended. A cutting mat and rotary cutter make it much easier to get precisely sized binding strips. You can purchase a cutting mat and rotary cutter in a craft supplies store. Place your fabric onto the cutting mat after you have pressed it. Make sure that the print side of the fabric is facing down towards the mat. If you do not have a cutting mat and rotary cutter and do not want to purchase these items, then you may also use scissors and a ruler to make your cuts. However, you will have to be much more careful when cutting the fabric since you will not have the benefit of a lined surface to cut on. Use your rotary cutter or a pair of fabric shear to cut your fabric piece to the desired dimensions for making your binding strips. The dimensions that you cut your fabric to will impact how much bias binding you can make. It is best to use a piece of fabric that is a square or nearly a square. You can also use what is known in quilting terms as a "fat quarter" to make your bias binding strips. This is a piece of fabric that measures 1.25 yards (1.14m) by 1.25 yards (1.14m).
