Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Use concealer and an eyeliner brush. Wear camouflaging clothing. Apply a temporary tattoo. Wear decorative bandages.

Answer: To hide cuts, scrapes, or scratches, purchase concealer makeup and an angled eyeliner brush (available at pharmacies or beauty supply stores). Apply the concealer with the brush just along the cut, making the line as fine as possible. Apply a light dusting of translucent powder over the area to set the makeup and prevent it from rubbing off. Always use a clean brush and only apply makeup to a closed wound. Clothing is one of the simplest and most effective ways to cover up cuts on your body. Long sleeves and pants (or long skirts) will hide cuts or scrapes while they heal. In warm weather, balance your outfit by wearing less-covering items of clothing on areas of your body that do not have blemishes. For instance, if you wear longs sleeves to hide cuts or scrapes on your arms, wear shorts to balance out your look. Be sure that your clothing is loose enough to give your cuts space to heal. Temporary tattoos can be a fun way to cover your cuts once they have closed over. Purchase temporary tattoos at a beauty supply store or make your own temporary tattoos using eyeliner. After a few days, be sure to remove temporary tattoos as gently as possible with a gentle soap and water. To hide your cuts in plain sight, make your own colorful bandages with decorative tape (available at craft stores or online). Attach a strip of colorful tape to the non-adhesive side of the bandage and trim away the excess tape around the edges. Apply it to your cut as you would a regular band-aid.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Select your ribbon and beads.

Answer: Choose a ribbon that is thin and pliable, with no wire. Your beads can be of any size and style, as long as the holes are big enough to fit the ribbon. Consider also adding a charm bead to hang from the end of your ribbons.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Focus on what your being is saying to you versus the mind. Pay particular attention when you have no thoughts or are in a no-mind state. Trust that these intuitive prompts are enough to carry you through life. Allow negative emotions to wash over you and out. Understand the only thing you are really ever expected to take care of in life is the present moment.

Answer: Buddha, along with modern-day teachers, teach that it's these intuitive promptings from your higher self that are the real you, not the mind. The mind only represents your conditioning and ego. By moving away from it and into your being is when you are truly at your best. Everyone, in the ordinary consciousness state, moves into the self and away from the mind on occasion. But, with practice, you can live from this place of no-mind or no-thought most of the time. People who have learned how to be in no-mind report that they only think a small percentage of the time and when they do, it's a pure, unadulterated form versus being all over the place. When you first start, this period of no-thought will be short, but it will gradually increase over time. When these periods do occur, however, you will feel a certain peace and stillness inside that you may have never felt before. Know that you are on the right track with your natural state of being, which has been obscured by the mind for so long. With practice, this sense of peace and stillness will deepen with you and will stay no matter what's going on around you. Many people have such a vested interest in their mind that they are the ones who have the most challenging time getting away from it. So the less you buy into the antics of it, the easier time you will have trusting that your higher self knows what's best for you. In other words, don't hold on to them. What you will find with practice is that they will go as easily as they came into you. Also, like the mind, these emotions are not who you are as a being. However, they are a guide and are definitely needed in life. The key, though, is to not react to them on the inside. When you look at it this way, because it actually is accurate, it's a much simpler way to live.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Consider how much drainage you'll need when constructing the floor and walls. Tramp down a thick layer of gravel for easy, cost-effective flooring. Build a simple wood floor for a professional looking shower. Use plywood or corrugated metal sheets with wooden posts for a simple, customizable wall. Purchase pre-built outdoor shower walls for a professional, easy finish. Use a curved shower curtain to build an easy wall around your shower. Stain and finish any wood so that it is waterproof.

Answer:
If you're only running cold water to your shower, chances are good you won't be spending hours getting wet. As such, drainage should not be a major concern. Still, you need some layer between your feet and the ground, otherwise you'll end up with dirty, muddy feet after every shower. Gravel is by far the most common bottom for outdoor showers. It is easy to install, looks good, and naturally drains away water if you take shorter showers. You can buy gravel, river pebbles, or small stone mixes depending on your aesthetic desires. To effectively install a gravel floor: Smooth out the flooring the best you can. Lay down your stones around the shower. For a more professional look, use half-buried 2x4s to create a simple enclosure around your shower that will hold the gravel in. Use a tamper to press the gravel tightly together, leaving you with a smooth, regular floor. You'll need one 8-foot 4x4" piece of wood and one 8-foot 1x4" piece, both pressure treated. You'll use the first piece to build a square base for your floor, and the second piece to put together the drainable flooring. For a cheap, pre-made alternative, consider using a wooden pallet. Cut one of the 4x4's into 4 even pieces, then screw them together into a simple square frame. Cut a 1x4" into 7 individual pieces, each 26-1/2" long. Place your 7 pieces onto your board starting on the edge, each piece parallel to the next. Leave a 1/4" space between each board for water to drain through. Screw the floorboards into the wooden frame. The easiest way to make a shower wall is to set up four more posts (identical to the one holding up your piping) in the ground, then nail plywood sheets to the posts as walls. You can then attach decorative shingles, paint or stain the plywood, or add a door/curtain instead of wood for one of the sides. You can get a set of outdoor shower walls from a variety of places, and there are a lot of different sets out there that can make your life much easier. However, these sets can run up to $1,000, so it may be more cost-effective to build your own walls instead. This strategy, of course, only works if your shower is attached to a wall or fence. That said, a simple curved shower rod can cover up the other 3 sides and leave you an easy, breezy outdoor shower experience. An outdoor shower will be up against the elements, and regular water will warp and ruin wood if you don't take precautions. Use an outdoor sealant and finisher to protect your shower for years to come.
