Many wine bottles have a small tab you can pull to remove this. If you leave the foil or plastic top on the bottle, then the cork won't be able to slide out. It's not necessary to peel all of it off. Just make sure the top of the cork is fully exposed and that the wine bottle covering isn't impeding it. There is no need to pad the bottle if the shoe is loose around the bottle. Remember, you want to use shoes with a hard sole and sturdy sides. Don't use tennis or athletic shoes. Men's dress shoes are recommended. This requires a good deal of force. Hold the neck of the wine bottle in your left hand. Grasp it firmly. Don't put your thumb, fingers, or palms over the cork. Hold the toe end of the shoe in your right hand. Bang the heel end of the shoe against the wall, holding the wine bottle in firmly. Bang the shoe against the wall with a lot of force. It should do so more with each bang. Once the cork is out about halfway, stop banging. Remove the wine bottle from the shoe. Wiggle the cork the rest of the way out using your hands.

Instead of the simple envelope bag, you may decide you want to try your hand at a tote bag. This method has you crochet two pieces and sew them together. This style bag has straps for handles so will be well-suited to use as a purse or shopping bag. The beginning steps of this alternate project are the same as the envelope-style bag. You'll want to make sure that you are comfortable with the basic crochet stitches, have carefully selected your yarn and hook, and have thought about what you want your final project to look like. Once you've done that, you're ready to start crocheting your new bag! You will be creating two pieces and sewing them together. If you do not want a flap for your bag, the front and back pieces will be identical. If you want a flap, however, you'll need to crochet the back piece to be taller. For example, if you want a bag that is 12" tall with a flap, you'll want to make your back piece longercrocheting to 18" will give you a 6" flap. Counting your stitches carefully, create a chain until you reach the length you'd like the bottom and top width of your bag to be. You will be crocheting either a square or a rectangle, depending upon the shape you want your tote to be. If your chain is particularly long, you may find it helpful to use markers every ten or twenty stitches to help you keep count. Once you've completed your initial chain that is as long as you want the width of your bag to be, you'll need to turn so that you can start the next row on the opposite side. You will need to do this every time you get to the end of a row. To turn your work, simply rotate clockwise halfway so that your last stitch in the current row becomes the first stitch in the new row you are starting. Keep crocheting, turning, and creating new rows until you reach the desired height you are aiming for. Remember that if you want a flap for back, the back piece will need to be longer (taller) than the front piece. Once your front (or back piece, depending on which you are working on) is as tall as you want it to be, you need to fasten off the yarn. Once you've completed your last row, cut the yarn from the skein, making sure to leave a few inches. Draw the tail of the yarn onto your hook, remove the hook and pull on the yarn to tighten it. Then, weave the tail through the stitches in your top row. . Once you've finished, you'll have either two identical pieces (the front and the back of a bag with no flap), or two pieces with a longer back side piece that will flap over the front. With the wrong side of the two pieces facing each other, use matching yarn to sew the bottom and side pieces of your bag together. You'll probably want to use the same color yarn to sew your pieces together, but it may be fun to use a contrasting color. You'll most likely want to add a strap to your bag. The process for making this is very similar to what you've already been doing. There are a coupe of options for accomplishing this: Option one: Make a chain as long as you want your strap to be. Turn the chain, and single crochet back along to the end of the chain. Repeat the single crochet until the strap is as wide as you want it to be. Finish off the strap, and then sew the ends of the strap into the corners of your bag. Be sure to use plenty of stitches when attaching the straps to your bag; nothing is worse than having a strap break, causing you to drop the contents of your bag! Option two: Attach your yarn to the opening of the bag using your crochet hook and a slip-stitch. Chain one, single crochet across edge of bag making 4 single crochet stitches on on side of the seam and continue till you have 4 single crochet on the other side of the seam. Continue in rows until strap is desired length. Attach other end to bag using either slip-stitches or sewing on in same way used for seams.

It's best to have plenty of light when putting on your makeup, especially if you're trying to conceal a pimple, as you need to be able to see it from every angle. Make sure you have plenty of light before starting. A primer goes under concealer to help hide the blemish. Pick a yellow or green primer, as it counteracts the redness. Use a concealer brush to dab primer over your pimple. Apply just enough to cover the pimple, as too much will draw attention to it rather than covering it. Use your finger to smooth it out. You can also use a cotton swab if you don't have a concealer brush. Next, use a concealer that's close to your skin tone. Use the concealer brush to dab some on top of the pimple. Once again, add just enough to cover the pimple. When purchasing a concealer, test it on the back of your hand or the back of your jawbone to make sure the tone matches. An emollient-based concealer will help moisturize your skin while hiding the pimple. Remember that you may need a different concealer in the winter than in the summer, especially if you enjoy being out in the sun in the summer. You can blend the two in spring and fall. Make sure the concealer is blended into you skin. Gently go around it with your finger to rub the perimeter into the rest of your skin. A powder helps set the makeup so it stays on all day. Apply the powder on top of the other makeup using a puff. Press down gently, but don't rub it.
