This Woman Starts Cutting The Stems Of These Roses. When She’s Done Unexpectedly STUNNING!
I’ve seen tie-dyed roses many times, but had no idea I could make them myself. The video you are about to watch below, was made by Kathy the CRAFTY CHICA who always wanted these roses herself, and made it her business to put together an easy and fun-to-follow tutorial on how to create this kaleidoscope effect.
With just some white roses, a packet of dyes, scissors, a knife and some clear plastic cups, you will see how easy this is to do. Each plastic cup will have a different color dye in it. Kathy shows you how to prepare the roses for optimal absorption of the different colors.
The angle and length that you cut the stems is critical to obtaining the most vibrant outcome. Additionally you will get to see how the color gets established from hour to hour over a 24 hour period. The great thing about creating these really cool color gradients, is that you have control over the hues you want to establish.
This is just such a great DIY to create for your own pleasure, to bring to a party, or to do for different holiday adornments. This will be totally perfect for Mother’s Day this year! Have fun watching this and let us know if you will try creating your own.

5 Thing You Should Stop Doing Immediately If You Are Experiencing Any Back Pain!
Back pain is something that everyone will experience at some point in their life. If you’re lucky it ends up being minor and temporary, but for some people it turns into a chronic, debilitating nightmare. Even with all the advances that modern medicine has made and afforded people, back pain remains the world’s number one leading cause of disability related issues.
According to the American Chiropractic Association (ACA) at any given moment an estimated 31 million Americans are experiencing lower-back pain and every year they spend at least $50 billion in their search to find comfort and relief.
The statistics are grim, but thankfully there are some things that you can do, and refrain from doing, to help improve how you feel. Refer to the accompanying video for more information and if you’re presently suffering from back pain, or happen to know someone who is, the following things should be avoided.
1) Stop slumping and slouching! Posture is a major factor that can determine whether or not you end up developing an achy back problem. When your mother told you to sit up straight with your shoulders back and both feet on the ground, she was right. Practicing better posture can help to alleviate back pain and even keep it at bay.
2) Take it easy. The majority of back pain cases stem from mechanical types of problems, like a slipped disk or a pulled muscle. By simply slowing down and spending more time resting, you can help your body heal and avoid further aggravating the underlying problem.
3) Stop carrying heavy stuff. Obviously you don’t want to head out to the gym to pump some heavy iron when your back is feeling less then optimal. However, people often overlook the many other things that they may be lugging around and carrying throughout the day. The list is long and the items on it can be heavy; backpacks, purses, luggage, briefcases, grocery bags, small children, boxes and packages that come in the mail, etc.
In the age of over-sized totes and carry-all bags, it’s easy to further strain an already strained back. Try to avoid lifting anything that may be heavier than a total of 5 pounds for at least one week after you first experience any pain. That way your back has a chance to rest, recover and heal.
4) Don’t lay in bed or stop being active. You should aim to keep busy and on your feet, so long as you stay within your comfort limits. Just because your back hurts, it doesn’t mean you have to stop doing everything. Staying active can sometimes help your body heal faster, it can keep you flexible and make you less prone to further potential injury.
Light exercise, yoga, and a daily walk are all excellent ways to stay on your feet. However, if it hurts too much you should stop whatever you’re doing and keep resting, never strain yourself further
5) Don’t wait until the pain is unbearable or it’s been around forever. If the back pain you experience doesn’t lessen or go away after awhile, or gets worse, you need to go see a doctor. Only a medical professional can pinpoint the exact cause of back pain and help you to manage it.
If the pain is chronic and severe, the underlying cause may be a more serious condition, such as an infection, cancer, fracture, or inflammatory arthritis. Visiting a doctor can also help put your mind at ease and less stress means better overall health.

I Could Never Figure Out How To Get My Stove Grates Clean. Then I Learned THIS Strange Trick!
If you cook a lot of food and dinners up at home, your stove is bound to get dirty. It’s one of the hardest areas to clean in the kitchen and it’s extremely important to take care of it. Baked on crud that builds up on stove top burners can be a health and safety hazard and if you want the stove to last, you have to clean it thoroughly once in awhile.
The problem with that is it can be a real pain in the behind getting those black crusted grates looking like new again. Now you don’t have to scrub them endlessly and risk scratching the heck out of them, because DIY Super Mom tested out an easy way to clean them up. The method she covered in this video takes minimum effort and works wonders at removing built up grease, grime, and food from burners.
All you really need to clean them is ammonia and a large Ziploc plastic bag. Here’s how you can do it: First, pour some ammonia into a spray bottle and place the dirty burner into the bag. Spray some ammonia all over the burner while it’s in the bag, so that it’s completely coated, then seal it closed so that all of the nasty fumes are trapped and locked inside.
Gently shake the bag and turn it over a few times to agitate the liquid inside and to ensure that all of the cracks, corners, and crevices are soaked in it. Allow the bag to sit overnight while the ammonia works to loosen up and dislodge the baked on food.
Open up the bag the following day and remove the burner, placing it somewhere safe that you can scrub it, like in the kitchen sink. Put on a pair of rubber gloves and use a sponge to wipe off the rest of the black, icky crud. It should come off easily and since you don’t need to scrub hard or scour, it won’t scratch the grates.
The next time you notice your stove top is looking a little worse for wear, pop the grates in a bag and try this simple and effective cleaning trick. It’ll have your stove top burners looking clean and polished without the use of harsh, expensive cleaning supplies that stores sell.
Best of all, you won’t have to scrub until your arm feels like it’s falling off!

Some People Aren’t Getting Buried Instead They Are Doing THIS With Their Ashes! Would You?
Dealing with death is difficult for everyone…those who are dying and those who are left behind. Some people abhor the idea of being buried in the ground, and choose to be cremated instead. Those who choose cremation, sometimes leave instructions as to where they want their ashes spread, and often times they do not.
For those who choose cremation, a jewelry company may have come up with an option that might appeal to you, or to those left behind, who want to keep a part of their remains close. A company called Algordanza, out of Switzerland, has created what they call a “Memorial Diamond”. Incredibly, they utilize a portion of the cremated remains of a love one, and convert it into a genuine diamond!
As astounding as this sounds it has a sound scientific basis. The human body contains 18% carbon, which as you know, is the element that diamonds are composed of. Algordanza created a process that utilizes 2% of the carbon that remains in what is left after cremation.
The graphite is pressurized in huge machines, after it has been heated to 2,700 degrees Fahrenheit, creating a simulation of the way natural diamonds are made. The color of the stone varies from white to dark blue, depending on the level of boron that is in the cremains.
Watch the following footage for a better understanding of the process and how it can be used to keep your loved ones close, and honor them every day after they are gone. Clearly this is not for everyone, but for those of you who contemplate cremation and what comes afterward, this is well worth watching.
The cost of such a process is $4,500 as compared to the cost of burial, which averages $10,000.
