If your mom doesn't agree with you or tells you no, try not to argue, yell or whine. Instead, remain calm and keep your tone of voice friendly and understanding. Then ask your mom why now is not the right time. For example, "When do you think the right time is?" or "When did you get your first bra?" Do this if you are uncomfortable not wearing a bra, but your mom still says no. Suggest getting a training bra, sports bra or a camisole with a built-in bra to wear in the meantime. After wearing these for a few months, bring up the topic again. For example, "I have been wearing my training bra for six months. I think I am ready to wear a bra now. Do this if your mom simply will not listen or does not understand that a bra will help you feel more comfortable about your body. Talk about the issue with a trusted relative, counselor or teacher. They may be able to offer you some advice on how to approach the topic with your mom. You could also ask them to discuss the topic with your mom for you.

This is the part that varies from method one. Instead of placing a gift at the centre of the parcel alone, also place a smaller gift on every layer of the parcel. This is the best way of preparing the parcel for children ages 3 - 8, as then each child receives a prize no matter who wins the prize wrapped in the middle of the parcel. All the players should be seated comfortably and close enough to the person each side of them that they can pass the parcel quickly. This person will be responsible for turning the music on and off. It should be someone who is able to keep an eye on the players and stop the music in a fair way that allows everyone a turn at unwrapping. It is a little tricky because the music-keeper must be able to both see the players but at the same time, players should not be able to see the movements of the music-keeper getting ready to stop the music. The music-keeper plays the music and stops it when least expected. The player holding the parcel unwraps a layer. If the parcel was midway in the air between exchanges, the parcel goes to the player it was being passed to. The music-keeper starts the music again. This continues until all the layers have been removed. The player who unwraps the last layer keeps the item.

One-sentence summary -- Prepare the parcel. Begin the game. Sit in a circle. Select the music-keeper. Stop the music. Restart after each layer is unwrapped. Continue playing until the last layer is unwrapped.

The following are general guidelines for fabrics in solid colors; patterns may need more in order to match the different pieces up. Note that fabric is sold by the yard, which is the measurement lengthwise. Bolts of fabric at the craft store have predetermined width, which you'll need to verify before purchasing. Typical widths range from 32 to 60 inches (81 to 152 cm), with 45 and 60 inches (114 and 152 cm) being the most common. The following measurements are based on fabric that is 54 inches (137 cm) wide. For a two-cushion sofa, use 16 yards (16 m) For a three-cushion sofa, use 18 yards (18 m) For a six-cushion sofa, use 22 yards (22 m) For a two-cushion love seat, use 13 yards (13 m) For a four-cushion love seat, use 17 yards (17 m) You can purchase it at a fabric store or online. Consider a fabric in a solid color. Matching patterns or stripes across large panels can be tricky, so unless you're ready to put in this extra effort, look for a cover material that's a single tone. Opt for a fabric with a lot of drape this will be much easier to work with. This softens the material and also accounts for any shrinkage that may occur. Don't skip this important step: the beauty of a slipcover is that it can be easily removed and washed, but you need to make sure it won't shrink after you've made it. Be sure to follow care instructions for the particular fabric you're working with. Wrinkles could cause puckering in the finished product, so this ensures a smooth and accurate fit.
