And since the library publishing schedule is based on a 4 week rotation, that means that a tutorial video will <em>NOT<\/em> be posted for members this Friday, April 30, 2010.

I am amazed how forward I look towards my Fridays. I might not have a chance to try each lesson until the next week, but watching them just starts the wheels a spinning in my head. So when I went on to read your comment Cindy, I felt much better and you can count on me watching my email for that special something to tide us over. Cindy you are made up of solid kindness. I wish I could give you a big hug right now so I will just have to send a hug to you as my grandkids do me uuhhggggggggggggs to you Cindy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is there an easy way to get the black off the headpins? I sanded lightly with some 1000 grit sandpaper, but I was wondering if there is a better way? <\/span><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>~Lisa-W<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p style=\"padding-left: 30px;\"><span style=\"font-size: medium;\">I just use a piece of steel wool to remove the black but I know that metal jewelry artists often use something called pickling solution. I have heard that vinegar and salt will work as a pickling solution for metal. Haven&#8217;t tried it yet myself, though. If anyone else has, let us know. <span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>~Cindy-L<\/strong><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-size: medium;\"><em><span style=\"font-size: large;\"><strong>OK&#8230;<\/strong><\/span><\/em> Am I making this guessing game WAY too easy for you or what???
