Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Dry the rose petals. Make the tea. Store in an airtight, opaque container suitable for tea. Make a cup of tea following the instructions for the green powder tea.

Answer: If you are not buying dried rose petals from a tea store, make your own. You will need to be certain that the variety of rose petals you grow are sweet tasting rather than bitter. If unsure, ask your local horticultural specialists for advice. Pick the rose petals and make sure they are free of dew. Half fill the net bag and close with an elastic. Hang the bag in a warm, dry and dark place to dry. This will take anywhere from a few days to a week, depending on the humidity of your environment. Once the petals have dried, you can prepare the tea. Combine equal parts rose leaves and equal parts green powder tea. Add honey to sweeten if desired.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Choose the right color for your eyebrows.

Answer: Pick a color as close to your natural hair color as possible. Don't pick a color that is darker than your eyebrows. Go a little lighter than your natural color if you can't find a matching shade. Keep in mind that brown looks good on any eyebrow color. Find what color that works best by applying swatches above your eyebrows. Figure out how darkly to apply your eyebrow pencil by applying different amounts of pressure as you draw your swatches.

Problem: Write an article based on this summary: Develop an exposure plan. Create and practice using an anxiety distress scale. Engage the help of a trusted friend with a dog. Start facing your fear of dogs. Practice regularly.

Answer: The reason you learned relaxation techniques was to keep yourself calm while slowly building up your exposure to dogs. But before you start allowing dogs to be in your presence, you need to develop a plan. This plan should include each step you're going to go through between now (no dogs) and actually being in their presence. Your plan should be customized for your particular type of fears, and the fearful situations you personally experience. The list should be written in order of least fearful to most fearful so you work your way up to conquering your most fearful situation. An example of a plan to overcome your fear of dogs is as follows: Step 1 - draw a dog on a piece of paper. Step 2 - read about dogs. Step 3 - look at photos of dogs. Step 4 - look at videos of dogs. Step 5 - look at dogs through a closed window. Step 6 - look at dogs through a partially opened window. Step 7 - look at dogs through an open window. Step 8 - look at dogs through a doorway. Step 9 - look at dogs from outside the doorway. Step 10 - look at a dog (who is on a leash) in the next room. Step 11 - look at a dog (who is on a leash) in the same room. Step 12 - sit beside a dog. Step 13 - pet a dog. Use the scale to measure your level of anxiety, with 0 being totally relaxed and 100 being the most fear/anxiety/discomfort you have ever experienced. This is a helpful tool for measuring how your distress levels change over time. The anxiety distress scale can also help you decide when it's time for you to move to the next step of your exposure plan. Be patient and take your time. Don't move to the next step too quickly. At some point in your plan you will have to place yourself in the presence of an actual dog. You need this dog to be handled by a competent and trustful person, and the dog needs to be predictable and well-trained. Talk to the dog's owner in advance of executing your plan and explain to them what you're trying to accomplish. They should be patient and understanding as they may need to simply sit there with their dog for a while as you acclimatize to the dog's presence. It is not a good idea to use a puppy, even if you think they're cuter and not as violent. Puppies are not well-trained and can be quite unpredictable. This can cause them to do something unexpected in your presence which may only exacerbate your fear. Eventually, if you're able to, have your friend teach you basic commands for the dog so you can control the dog yourself. Being in control of the dog may further help you to alleviate your fears once you realize you have the ability to direct their actions. Start with the first item on your plan and carry it out. Repeatedly carry it out until you feel less anxious and fearful doing it. If the step you're doing allows you to stay in one place (i.e. watch dogs though a window), slowly expand the length of time you perform the activity as well. Use the relaxation techniques you practiced to help keep yourself calm. Use your journal to keep track of your progress. Write down each attempt you make and how it went. Rate your level of anxiety and fear before and after each attempt. Remember that your exposure to dogs should be planned, prolonged and repeated. Don't feel you need to rush. Take your time on each step of your plan until you feel comfortable moving onto the next step. This part of the recovery process is going to be the hardest you'll have to go through, but the only way it's going to be successful is if you keep it up. Make a schedule where you practice on a regular basis. If at all possible, practice daily. Reward yourself for the progress you make. If needed, build rewards into your plan so you have an extra goal to work towards for each step.

Answer:
Remember to follow the drying time directions on the paint packaging. Allowing each coat to dry completely before applying the next coat will potentially help to make your finished product look better and last longer. The drying time between paint coats will vary widely depending on the paint that you are using, the thickness that it is applied, and the climate it is being applied in. Keep your project in a safe place until it dries completely. This will allow it to dry completely before being disturbed. Avoid using your painted surface for anything until 100% dry. he surface properly. In order to keep your painted upholstery looking good, you will need to be careful with it and clean it gently. For example, if you spill something on it, soak as much up as possible quickly with a dry towel and then blot the surface with a damp cloth. Painted upholstery can be more sensitive to use and abuse than fabric surfaces. Be sure to avoid setting rough or sharp surfaces on the upholstery, as it could scratch your paint job.
