Make a Colorful Arrangement
decorating To create a unique look for
your bouquets, fill the bottom of a large
vase with buttons, then place a narrower
vase inside. Add more buttons to fill
the space between the two vases. Finally,
fill the smaller vessel with water and
arrange your flowers inside.8
Take a Midweek
Break
health Summer may
have you dreaming
of long weekends,
but researchers have
found that the best day
to take off is actually
Wednesday. It interrupts
the forced rhythm of
the nine-to-five
workweek, giving you
an extra opportunity to
sleep and wake naturally,
which is healthier.9
Fix a Sweat Stain
cleaning Those unsightly
yellow stains that show
up on the underarms of
your shirts are pretty easy
to remove. You can crush
two aspirin and mix the
powder into half a cup
of warm water, then soak
the spot in the solution
for a few hours. Or com-
bine equal amounts of
lemon juice and water,
then scrub. You can also
mix one part dish soap
with two parts hydrogen
peroxide, then scrub
the discoloration and let
it sit for an hour. Finally,
launder as usual.34 june 2019
