1. Plan carefully. Write out even the minutest detail ahead of time.
2. Allow time for last minute difficulties. Hardly anything ever works exactly right the first time. Make sure that you don't try to cram a 25 minute experiment into 15 minutes!
3. Trust your instincts. If the experiment seems like it might be dangerous or faulty, check with an expert before proceeding.
4. Follow instructions exactly. Now is not the time to cut corners and it could even be dangerous.
5. Don't be afraid to elaborate. While this may seem contradictory to the preceding tip, feel free to expand the experiment where safety is not a concern. Part of the discovery process is asking "What would happen if we did this?".
6. Turn failure into learning opportunities. If the experiment fails, instead of chucking it, go back and search for reasons why it failed.

Avid Tea Drinker but I don't get a thermometer a timer and a measuring cup just so I can enjoy some tea. I drink tea out of a mug. I use water at whatever hotness it comes out of the kettle/pot/water cooler and I frequently double steep if it suits my fancy.

Happy Friday Today we are going to talk about ink…well I'm gonna talk about ink (for about 15 minutes LOL) and you can listen if you like. I had a couple people request a video demonstrating the various brands of ink-pads and what they are good for and at least once a week someone emails me or leaves a comment asking about ink so today I am going to give you the scoop on ink-pads! You don't need to take notes during the video because I prepared an Ink Pad Cheat Sheet that you can download at the end of this post:) Just step away from the pencil ma'am. Here's the video:
I realized that I did not talk about chalk or distress inks (doh!) and you might be feverishly trying to make notes while the video was going (no small task with how fast I talk) so I decided to save you the trouble and create a cross reference cheat sheet that you can print containing all the inks I talked about and the two I forgot. there is also a bit of room in the chart for you to jot down your notes and findings. I have also included tips and recipes for homemade ink and ink refreshers. You can download that below:
So, did I do good? Do you feel like you know a thing or two about all of the ink pad choices out there? As always if you have any questions just leave a comment (or if you just want to say howdy-do!) Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!

TNB: Artificial Intelligence
In the last 25 years, no piece of gear has been more influential to the sport of climbing than artificial gym/training holds.
In the last 25 years, no piece of gear has been more influential to the sport of climbing than artificial gym/training
holds. A close second might be the cordless drill, and then way down the list you'll find such items as sticky-rubber shoes and spring-loaded cams,
critical items that, for sure, pushed climbing standards and made the sport easier and better.
But cams and sticky rubber were not responsible for introducing millions of people to climbing. They did not make the sport automatically seem fun. They
did not grow the sport or the industry. They were not responsible for the development of competition climbing, which has produced the world's best
rock climbers. They did not provide the training apparatuses that are now allowing even teenagers to climb 5.15.
Plastic holds did.
The evolution of artificial climbing holds is murky. Perhaps because plastic/indoor climbing is often regarded as something not real or legitimate,
no one has really bothered to write its history. François Savigny and the French company Entre Prises (EP) are credited with being the first to commercially
manufacture artificial holds as early as 1984, 25 years ago. The first holds from EP were hexagonally shaped holds made of resinous concrete. They
were painful to grab, heavy and came in a very limited number of shapes.
However, though we think of indoor climbing as not real, the desire to pull down on manmade problems is a natural instinct in climbers, as evinced
by the fact that climbers had been making their own holds since the early 1970s. Brooke Sandahl of Metolius says that he screwed wooden blocks onto
rafters as early as 1976. People bolted rocks to the undersides of tunnels. And, with no climbing gyms around, climbers used buildings to fill the
What followed next, and continues to this day, is a crucible of art and engineering, where creativity and vision meet technology.
The earliest holds just weren't that fun, says Mark Jackson, a designer of 18 years at Entre Prises USA. They were sharp. There was a trend in the early
90s toward more rounded shapes. Now it has come full circle, back toward more natural, sculpted shapes, while still keeping in mind ergonomics.
Holds and walls that are fun to climb not only introduce people nowadays to the sport, but get them hooked. The sheer numbers of different shapes are approaching
the near-infinite permutations of natural rock grips, allowing climbers to gain comfort, familiarity and strength in various hand positions more quickly
and easily than ever. Atmospheric ratings, and the rate of improvement for most climbers, not to mention their attitudes, can be attributed to the
plastic hold.

Cold March keeps shoppers' spending tepid
NEW YORK (AP) -- So much for new spring shorts and T-shirts. As cold weather lingered across most of the country, Americans shopped modestly in March.
NEW YORK (AP) -- So much for new spring shorts and T-shirts. As cold weather lingered across most of the country, Americans shopped modestly in March.
By MAE ANDERSON
AP Retail Writer
NEW YORK (AP) -- So much for new spring shorts and T-shirts. As cold weather lingered across most of the country, Americans shopped modestly in March.
U.S. retailers reported a key revenue figure rose slightly during the month, as shoppers held back on spending because of the cold weather across the nation, particularly the Midwest and East Coast, and continued fears about the economy. Economists monitor consumer spending because it accounts for more than 70 percent of economic activity.
According to a preliminary tally of 15 retailers by the International Council of Shopping Centers, revenue in stores open at least a year rose 1.6 percent, or 2.5 percent excluding drugstores. That was below expectations, said Michael Niemira, chief economist at the ICSC.
Revenue in stores open at least one year is a key measure of a retailer's financial health, because it excludes stores that open or close during the year.
Weather was a factor, with March being the coldest in seven years. The comparison with last March was especially tough. Last year saw the warmest March on record, according to weather research firm Planalytics Inc.
"Wintry weather conditions persisted deep into March, depressing spring apparel, home and garden, and seasonal merchandise sales," said Ken Perkins, president of Retail Metrics. Meanwhile, the payroll tax increase that took effect in January and the uncertain economy have weighed on spending, he said.
Analysts often like to combine March and April to get a clearer picture of shoppers' habits, because of volatile weather patterns that time of year and Easter's movement around the calendar.
Easter tends to help stores that sell groceries and candy but costs clothing sellers a day of sales without spurring much additional spending. Most of the stores that report monthly sales figures are clothing specialists.
Job fears have risen since the government reported hiring was the slowest in nine months in March. However, the Labor Department reported Thursday that the number of Americans seeking unemployment benefits fell sharply last week, a hopeful sign that the slowdown in hiring may have been temporary.
Perkins expects April to be stronger, as the weather improves and customers respond to strong fashion trends such as colorful jeans and prints. An earlier Easter, which meant one less selling day in March, will also help April results, he said. In addition, shoppers should benefit from tax refunds and falling gas prices.
The number of retailers reporting monthly sales figures has been shrinking. Big names like Target, Macy's and Nordstrom have recently stopped reporting. Wal-Mart, the world's largest retailer, hasn't reported monthly sales figures in several years. Gap Inc. is set to report after the market closes.
With the shrinking list, Costco, which posted a 6 percent gain in February, now accounts for about two-thirds of the revenue in the tally. In total, the retailers that report monthly data represent about 6 percent of the $2.4 trillion in U.S. retail industry sales.
"It's kind of like Ryan Gosling's SAT scores, these numbers don't mean anything," said Judith Russell, an analyst with The Robin Report, a retail industry strategy newsletter. A clearer picture of retail sales will emerge when the government reports retail sales figures on Friday. The cold weather dampened sales, she said, but overall she remains positive about fashion trends, with bright colors and prints becoming popular as cotton prices ease.
Retailers who do report had a mixed month, with those with more stores on the East Coast, where the weather was cold and wet, faring worse than those with stores concentrated on the West Coast.
TJX Cos., which operates TJX and Home Goods stores, said revenue in stores open at least a year fell 2 percent, while analysts expected a 1 percent drop. The company said that the drop was due to the weather and the Easter shift, and they expect a stronger April.
"Overall business trends improved as the weather became warmer," said CEO Carol Meyrowitz. "April is off to a good start, our inventories are in great shape, and we are seeing an enormous amount of desirable product in the marketplace."
L Brands, formerly Limited Brands Inc., the parent of Victoria's Secret and Bath and Body Works, said the revenue figure was flat, above analyst expectations for a drop, according to Thomson Reuters.
Warehouse club operator Costco Wholesale Corp.'s revenue figure rose 4 percent in March, short of expectations for a 5.2 percent rise.
Department store operator Stein Mart Inc. said revenue at stores open at least a year dropped 2.8 percent in March, falling short of Wall Street predictions. The company said sales were hurt by cold weather and the earlier Easter.
"This year, more than ever, it will be important to combine March and April sales results to get a true picture of our spring selling season due to this year's Easter calendar shift," said CEO Jay Stein.
In terms of teen retailers, the Buckle Inc. said the revenue figure was flat, while analyst expected a 0.3 percent decline.

Quote of note
"I am happy she is getting out ... and I wish her the very best. She is supposed to call me when she gets out, and we're supposed to meet and go shopping. I told her whenever she got out, I'd treat her. I have a friend who would like to buy her an outfit, and I want to buy her a computer." - Bill Pelke, the grandson of a woman who was killed by 16-year-old Paula Cooper in 1986. Pelke said he long ago forgave Cooper - who originally received a death sentence - and was one of many who petitioned to get her released from death row. Her sentence was changed to a 60-year prison term in 1989.

News to know
A restaurant in Kansas City, Mo., exploded earlier today, killing at least one person and injuring at least 15, according to CNN. The restaurant, JJ's, closed early due to the odor of natural gas. The fire department was called to investigate, but left after being told by the utility company that everything was under control. Fifty mintues later, the gas leak ignited and blew the roof off the restaurant.

John Long: Mountains of Trouble
The cement-bucket drop test, swami belts and the beginning of the end of a fabled climbing club.
Illustration by Jeremy Collins.
This article appeared in Rock and Ice issue 118 (September 2002).
I needed an exercise fix one recent Sunday morning, but my fingers were too sore to rope up, so I hopped on my mountain bike and peddled for the Santa Monica mountains. Two hours later, panting at a clearing known as The Hub, where 10 trails converge on a ridgetop, a woman, 40ish, fetching, hale and vaguely familiar, rolled up, gave me the once over and said, "Don't I know you?"
"Probably not," I said, "but you should."
"Oh, I think I do," she said, extending her gloved hand. "My name's Molly."
It's been almost 30 years since "Danny" (who I'd recruited from my high school baseball team) and I took that first climbing seminar, with the fabled Rock Climbing Section of the John Muir Club. The RCS had launched several generations of America's finest—from John Mendenhal to Chuck Wilts—but by the time my cohorts and I jumped on board, it was a leaking ship. I wouldn't say we scuttled the whole works—it seemed doomed before we were born, once the original hardcore had given way to fussy, tyrannical old farts with their felt hats, military protocols and silly regulations. But I'm confident the local chapter never recovered from the participation of our band of truants and knuckleheads who signed on for their Rock One seminar.
Orientation took place in a cavernous auditorium in Riverside, California. We paid 10 dollars, filled out a sheaf of documents, got a work book thick and arid as Kant's Collected Works, pasted our name tags onto our t-shirts and took chairs.
Then the seminar leader, whom we came to call Major Guff, goose-stepped onto the stage and introduced a desiccated relic in Lowa triple boots and pressed khakis. "Uncle Abe," as we later styled him, tromped over to the podium and embarked on a magnificent performance. While Uncle Abe bore a faint resemblance to Abraham Lincoln, he had the outrageous routine of dramatically modulating his speech and body lingo, like one of those televangelists you see when surfing late-night cable.
Anyhow, Uncle Abe instructed us to thumb into our 1,200-page workbook of rules and regulations, to review the "10 essentials," which to Sierra Clubbers were what the Commandments were to the Apostles.
The 10 essentials were actually more like 20 essentials. I can't recall all of them. Several items didn't seem especially germane to rock climbing, such
as the tin cup and the mirror, though the other stuff (waterproof matches, a signaling device, freeze-dried rations, a sextant and astrolabe) seemed like pretty standard tackle — if you were casting off for the North Pole. We were made to understand that these essentials were to be carried by everyone on every RCS outing, no matter how small or ambitious.
Eventually, Uncle Abe broke out the Goldline rope and a rack of pitons and launched into a demonstration so rare, so theatrical, so entirely screwy we
could only watch and wonder if the old boy hadn't been poisoned. He began by lashing the Goldline around his waist and having Major Guff's daughter
(one Molly, a curvy article of 18) "anchor" herself to the mike stand and pay out the "lead line" as Uncle Abe "climbed" across the stage on hands and knees. Every few yards Uncle Abe would clasp a piton and feign driving it into the wooden floor; then he'd clip it off with a carabiner and grovel on, looking like Doug Scott crawling off the Ogre with two broken legs.
Uncle Abe's "horizontal climbing" exhibition went on until he'd covered most all the basics, and he kept on about nothing in particular until, around midnight, Major Guff fairly dragged him off the stage.
The next weekend, we met at Mount Roubidoux, just outside Riverside, for our first taste of real climbing. Mount Roubidoux is no mountain, but rather a sprawling, 400-foot-high knoll flecked with huge boulders and tumbleweeds. The ramshackle community of Roubidoux — notorious for wife-beating, cheap wine and street gangs — spills off the Western flanks of the "mountain" and is a blight on the face of the earth.
The RCS class met on a road below Mount Roubidoux's dusty eastern ramparts and we went through a check-in and got name tags. And a guy with a foot-long beard made sure we had our 50 essentials. This seemed a bit much, since a dozen liquor stores were in eyeshot from any place on the mountain, but rules were rules. Major Guff actually had a topo map spread over the hood of his Land Cruiser, and was plotting his course up the paved road leading to a big cross on top of Mount Roubidoux, an expedition of roughly a quarter mile.
Since the orientation meeting five days before, I'd recruited two other hometown charlatans, "Hal" and "Hank," along with my friend Danny. Hal and Hank went on to glory days in Yosemite and beyond, with hundreds of first ascents between them. Danny never took to climbing (he later became a software tycoon, of all things), but he was there with us on that first day at Roubidoux, and in exceptional form at that. Danny had struck up a friendship with Molly after the orientation class and got her to sneak the two unregistered novices, Hal and Hank, into the class.
We joined the long queue and humped up the road to a cluster of towering boulders by the 60-foot high cross planted on the summit of Mount Roubidoux. I have no idea why we couldn't just drive up, but the road was closed to all but several RCS support jeeps that had powered to the top with gear and provisions.
We spent several hours learning how to tie the swami belt and then how to tie into the "lead line." After you thought you had it down cold, you were blindfolded and made to perform the whole business in front of one of the dozen or so instructors, smug as they were daffy, whose shirts were covered with patches and merit badges.
Meanwhile, unbeknownst to us, Hal had thieved his way into the supply jeep and was wolfing down various pies and chicken buckets and had drifted through the bulk of it before getting nabbed by one of the instructor's wives, "Daisy," who had somehow stuffed most of her 200 pounds into some undersized leiderhosen, and who proceeded to tell the entire staff about Hal's crime.
Over by the big boulder, we were finishing going over the complexities of belaying, and the first students were being marshaled through the "drop test," a torturous RCS convention reaching back to the dawn of American climbing. Tied to the business end of the rope, a 100-pound bucket of cement was hauled 10 feet above a bolt 15 feet off the ground, then dropped through mid-air. The student-cum-belayer on the other end of the line was counted on to arrest the plunging concrete bomb using the hip belay, a procedure that seared the back of the first student (a young woman named Jill) with galley-slave type lesions. She burst into tears and Danny elbowed me in the ribs, thrusting his chin toward several instructors snickering at the greenhorn. I could almost hear the gears turning in Danny's head, scheming up some payback. Hours later it was my turn, and even though I weighed 180 pounds, that blasted bucket still wrenched me off my feet and I barely held onto the cord.
When Hank's turn came around, Buddy hoisted the bucket an extra yard for good measure, then cut it loose and watched in horror as Hank dropped the belay rope and the bucket slammed into the deck and exploded into 1000 pieces. Instructors streamed in from all angles and glared at the remains of the bucket, and then at Hank, as though he'd just dynamited the Arc of the Covenant. The hallowed bucket had tested the likes of Norman Clyde, Warren Harding, Yvon Choinard and Elvis Presley for all we knew, and now it was just a pile of rubble.
"For Christ's sake," Major Guff bellowed at Hank, "Why'd you drop it?"
"I got scared," Hank chuckled.
"You got scared?!" the Major shot back, and kept on about Hank not having the making of a mountaineer and that if every belayer got scared and dropped the line they're be a hundred dead leaders a week and so on and so forth. Then several instructors got down on hands and knees and gathered up the remains of the concrete bucket with the deliberation of archeologists at a sacred dig.
Meanwhile, while taking a leak behind some shrubs, Hank found a ghastly "fur" magazine showing naked adults performing atrocities on one another, and he proceeded to slip the magazine in the top of Buddy's pack. Hank filled us in on the gag and after "lunch" was over our little gang followed Buddy over to a 30- foot slab where we were to do our first top-rope climbing.
At the base of the wall, Buddy dumped out his pack, and out tumbled the fur magazine in all its wretched splendor. Buddy snatched up the magazine with a "What's this?" look on his face.
Hank straightaway plucked the mag from his hands and said, "You're a bad man, Buddy …" and Buddy immediately came back with, "That's not mine!" But the crowd of perhaps 15 novice climbers was glaring at Buddy, and now Hal was thumbing through the rag.
"Hell and devils," cracked Danny, peering over Hal's shoulder. "Anyone who can hold that position deserves one of them merit badges of yours, Buddy."
Buddy ripped the rag from Hal's hands, crammed it into his pack, and flew into a rage, claiming he'd been framed and was victim of a wicket practical joke.
"Sort of like Jill and that bucket-drop horse manure," Danny said.
That was really the start of the curtain falling on us and the entire RCS. Buddy and Hank got in a shoving match; Major Guff came over with several other instructors and went off on one of his harangues.
The last straw was when Daisy caught Danny fornicating with Major Guff's daughter, Molly, in a grotto near the big cross. We actually had to run for it
at that point, Molly included, with half of the Riverside Chapter of the RCS chasing us down the mountainside and squealing after us in cars. It wasn't
until we were out past Cucamonga, 20 miles west, that we finally ditched the last Jeep, with Major Guff's hideous red face sticking several feet out
the driver's side window.
That's when I discovered Molly was in the back seat of my dad's Lincoln. I must have know she was there, but hadn't realized the thickness of our jam until we'd ditched the Major. Danny told me to quit sweating — Molly seemed to be taking the thing in stride — and to just drop them both off
at his pad, which I did. Though I played baseball with Danny for two more years, he never mentioned how he resolved the predicament and I never
asked, though when I thought about it over the years, I surely wondered.
Now, basically three decades after the fact, I would find out from Molly herself, leaning on her mountain bike and squeezing out a tube of Gu.
"Of course I remember," Molly said, when I mentioned the scandal at Mount Roubidoux. She washed down the Gu with a squirt from a squeeze bottle, then cleared up an intrigue that had worked me for decades.
As it happens, a few months before our enrollment in the RCS seminar, Molly's folks had split and she and the Major weren't faring so well. Following our narrow escape off Mount Roubidoux, when Molly returned home, there was a great rhubarb, of course, but she and the Major had little but each other, and they'd patched things up somehow. The Major had been a climber, and a good one, in his day, and that summer he and Molly went to the Valley and climbed for a month — with Danny joining them the last week.
Her tryst with Danny was a flash in the pan, but Danny and the Major sort of fell in together.
"Go figure," I said. "Danny wasn't at my 20th high school reunion, but somebody there said he'd made a fortune in computer software."
"Yeah, with dad's company," said Molly. "They've got a branch in Hong Kong and Danny's run that office for a decade now. Dad got a hip replacement a couple of years ago, and that's slowed him down some, but about five years back, he and Danny hiked almost the whole length of China's Great Wall. Took them nearly four months."
Then she looked at me and said, "And what have you been up to for all these years."
"Not too much," I said. "Just trying to stay out of trouble."
"That's a lie," she said, and threw her head back and laughed.

I'm cracking up! Great story! (and a cute project)
Carol Mercer January 11, 2016 at 6:29 pm #
Fantastic my daughter is bringing home a preemie so this will be fantastic and I have lots of material. Thanks just in time.
sharla@mylittlegems April 27, 2010 at 9:43 pm #
you are too funny.
I made one of these last year and it has really come in handy. I attach it to the stroller straps, and use it as a lightweight blanket too :)
So sweet!
Unsolicited advice: When he starts getting heavy and making that bucket a pain in the keester to carry around, I highly, HIGHLY recommend babywearing. A ring sling, a wrap or a soft structured carrier like an Ergo will save your arms and shoulders, and it'll keep baby niiiiice and close to you. And away from germy hands (ew).
Blue Is Bleu April 27, 2010 at 10:35 pm #
I love it!!! I'd be very irritated if someone tried to touch my baby too… I hate people who do that or touch pregnant bellies without asking or if they don't even know the person. So gross.
izzy inspired April 27, 2010 at 11:03 pm #
what a great idea…i always used a receiving blanket (becuz I agree completely that strangers had no need to touch my baby) to cover up my babies. this is much cuter than a blanket draped over though!! Now if only I could figure out a way to stop strangers from trying to touch my toddler without sounding rude!!
wishes, true and kind April 27, 2010 at 11:32 pm #
Good for you! It's even creepier when they want to hold the baby! Yeah — that's not happening! Cute cover :)
Crystal Hendrix April 27, 2010 at 11:33 pm #
Awesome cover!! I have wanted to make one. My mom made some for me but never taught me how! :D She also made some with flannel for the winter months, it worked wonderfuly!
Thanks for the instructions!
a little bit biased April 27, 2010 at 11:48 pm #
Thanks for the tutorial and the fabric you used is so fun – perfect for a boy. And, that little guy you stuck in at the end is adorable!
Miss Sews-it-all April 28, 2010 at 1:22 am #
GREAT idea, and it looks fabulous! It is amazing how some people act around babies – I had a total stranger try to pick up my 15 month old at a bowling alley. What the heck was she thinking???
randi---i have to say April 28, 2010 at 3:31 am #
so cute! and that car seat cover is adorable too! :)
I agree with Felicity's comment above….I don't shop anymore without putting my 4 month old in my moby wrap. I was recently at the grocery store before I got my wrap and some old guy walked by and grabbed her hands….before I could do anything about it. Makes me so MAD!!!
This made me laugh! Just walking into Walmart gives me the shivers sometimes, and I always make sure everyone uses hand sanitizer when we get back in the car. Your baby is getting so big!
I just made one myself a little while ago. I was thinking about protection from the sun, but glad to know it has other uses. ;0)
Thanks for the "crappy" tutorial! I thought it was very clear.
I once had an old woman at the laundry mat start to take the blanket off my carseat because the baby "couldn't breathe." I actually had to remove her hand from the handle. *shudder* I hate touching strangers and I ESPECIALLY hate them touching me or my family.
I'm slightly germophobic.
fiberdoodles April 28, 2010 at 1:30 pm #
It looks great! I have seen some with netting to peek in but have never made one. Too cute!
TheBorman5 Plus1 April 28, 2010 at 2:18 pm #
This is a fabulous simple idea!
Sew It To Me April 28, 2010 at 4:11 pm #
simple and cute. No excuse not to make one now!
Rinachiyya April 28, 2010 at 5:22 pm #
Too cute and love the material. You are one smart lady.
Felicity, I was just going to say the same thing. No one has ever tried to touch my babies when I've been wearing them, and it's SO much easier on the arms and back (not to mention having both hands free!). I'm working on sewing up a mei-tai style carrier right now, and I'm really pleased with how it's coming along.
love it…this is a great alternative to those thick, hot ones that I used with my winter baby…I think this will be perfect for keeping off the sun (ahem, crazy people..) in July.
I ditto your yuck story…a stranger came up to my crying baby and stuck her finger IN HIS MOUTH to shush him…we were at church, so no, I didn't smack her…
The Clark's April 29, 2010 at 3:49 am #
haha, I know what you mean here's my terrible Wal Mart/baby experience: I have twin girls who were in the NICU for 8 weeks. When we finally got them home I found one day when I needed to get to WalMart to pick up a RX. I gathered all my courage and packed up the girls. As I was standing in line trying to fend of WalMarters my girls started getting a little fussy. No big deal I pulled out a bottle and started to feed them. As I was taking care of the baby in the front of the cart I looked up to see that the little old lady in line behind me was WHIPEING my daughters face with her wheepy-eye-tissue!!! I FREAKED! anyway good luck fending,
S. Anderson April 29, 2010 at 12:03 pm #
This would be awesome with oil cloth as a rain cover too! Thanks for the great idea! I might have to try this!
inday_adin April 29, 2010 at 9:41 pm #
I have had the same experiences before when my little boy was a little younger. People would just come up and touch your baby, and even before when I was pregnant were strangers would come up and touch your tummy like they know you. That is such a neat idea. :)
I am laughing so hard! This is an amazing blog, thank you so much for sharing your projects and stories with us. I love it!
The real question is why you are shopping in WalMart in the first place. There's a great book you should read called "The WalMart Effect" that explains the impact of the company on our economy.
Why is it that Americans think that a bargain is always a good thing? instead of realizing that sometimes (many times) the real costs are hidden.
I like the cover, though.
It bugs me more when they touch my baby's hands or feet, because those are the things that are constantly in a baby's mouth. Yuck!
Cute fabric, totally do-able tutorial. I have the kind of carseat cover that has elastic all the way around so that it hugs the seat. It has a hole in the top for the car seat handle and easy baby viewing and access. My baby is too inquisitive now (she is 14 months and a little ball of opinionated energy) so I will have to use it on the next baby.
Army Wife Quilter May 17, 2010 at 12:53 am #
I have a car seat cover. Love it, however people will lift it and look inside, with out asking. My baby is 10m and it is getting time to graduate to new car seat. Does anyone have a suggestion for keeping hands off your kid when not small enough for infant seat anymore.
Arlene (CO Kid) July 24, 2010 at 1:09 pm #
I have seen people sew a little window with thin plastic in them so people can see in but don't get to touch. Also, you can make them with slits in the top so the handles come out and it's totally reversible.
Clodagh a.k.a. Isra October 7, 2010 at 3:51 pm #
Great tutorial. I live on the other side of the world where people not only touch but actually will pick up the baby etc. It does freak me out so this will be a great deterrent.
This is so perfect! My friend's baby shower is next week and this is a perfect easy gift to whip out super quick!! Would I attach the 2 pieces of fabric that velcro around the handle towards the middle of the cover? I don't know if the handle is in the exact cover of the car seat.

Are you selling these on Etsy? I would love one but cannot yet sew! :)
Thank you so much for taking the time to create this awesome tutorial. I'm expecting #4 any day and I used your tutorial to make one recently. With my previous 3 I would always try to rig up a blanket to stay in place with the hood of the car seat up, but it would move or get pulled down by the baby. This is the perfect solution!!!
I'm sharing it on my blog today and linking back to your site.
The yard of fabric works great for measurements just make two for my sil and brother and their new little twin boys and the measurements were perfect for their smaller chicco car seats which are smaller then graco but they are great will be making one for me when this next one is out for sure just got to figure out what it is first :)
Hahah.. Awesome! I am so making one! I had a walmart checker touch my baby's paci and then try to put it back in my baby girls mouth! This happened just a few weeks ago! I yelled maybe screamed at the lady! I couldn't believe it! Nasty!!!
I had a blanket over my girl but the crazy lady rook the banket right off! This looks so easy and can't come off easily!! Thanks!!!
I think this is a great idea! I was thinking about using some type of mesh material for kind of just a shade/bug/people guard. I do understand why y'all don't like just anyone touching your babies, do you realize babies didn't used to get sick as often as they do now because they were exposed to more things they had more resistance to common ailments. Just sayin'. Thanks for the idea, you've really inspired me to get to sewing!!!
Glad to know someone other than me is cranky when they get creative and stay up all night with amazing results (the cover not the attitude!) My "heart" son & wife had a baby in Sept and this will be a perfect gift, both useful and something no one else thought of and it can be handmade by Grandma El!!! Think I will also embroider his name and maybe a cute little pig on it!!!
I love the "greeter deterrent" title. So appropriate!! I know all to well how Wal-mart employees can't keep their hands to themselves. I just made a car seat cover and posted pictures. I linked back to your tutorial. If you want to see the post, here's the address: http://sparetimecontinuum.blogspot.com/2011/04/gifts-for-my-sister.html
P.S. I LOVE the fabric you used. I wish I could find it!

I'm going to try to make this for a gift! I can't wait to see how it turns out! Thanks for sharing this awesome project. I'm going to be your newest Follower because I can't wait to explore your blog and see all the too cute inspiration you have for me!!
Have a great week,
I made one for my baby (due in August) and posted here: http://seaschell.blogspot.com/2011/06/more-baby-projects.html
Thanks for a great tutorial!

I just made one! I love it!
I bookmarked this for future use. With cold/flu season, assorted germs and viruses being passed around (and my wonderful mother in law always making sure that we had something to drape over the car seat if it was even slightly chilly out… and we were talking walking less than 12 feet from her door to the car) I can see where these REALLY come in handy. When my boys were little (2 and newborn, they're now 13 and 11!) someone touched my youngest and ended up being punched by my then 2 year old (just a tad over protective of his baby brother LOL)
When my daughter, now 21 was a baby, I was constantly plagued by "do gooders" thinking they knew what was best for her .. a coughing woman with a runny nosed kid in the drs office thought it was best that her hat come off so she reached over and started untying it .. I am quite forward and mince no words and said "WTH are you doing to MY BABY?" .. she said "the child is hot!" .. I said "you take that hat off and you'll see someone HOT" .. oh how I wish I had had this cover for her! Our middle girl is expecting her third baby, a girl after two boys and this will be perfect for her .. she HATES it when people try to touch her kids! Wal Mart greeters?? Don't get me started on that one!! LOL .. your tutorial is BRILLIANT!!!
I didn't find your pattern before I made my own very similar one. I used two very bright and busy fabrics with bugs since my granddaughter seems enamored with them. I also put handle straps on both sides so the baby could see whichever side she wanted. My daughter puts it on the carseat when baby is not it in also, but when the seat is in the car, to keep the buckles from getting burning hot.
Response to keeping people's hands off toddlers– develop your "mom look" now! I always had my hand on the stroller or shopping cart and if someone approached I would wait until they were close then swing it around so the baby was no where near the stranger and shoot them a "mom look." If anyone is then rude enough to question your actions you can choose to just ignore them or tell them that you prefer people to not touch your child, you are trying to keep her well.
Just wanted to share the cover I did this morning…. thank you for an AWESOME tutorial!!!!

I made one too and LOVE it! Thanks for the great tutorial, I didn't change anything (except for trimming it down quite a bit, my car seat isn't quite as big as yours!!) :).
Looks exactly like the plastic ones made by Safety 1st. Except this won't catch and rip on things rendering it useless. Great idea. My baby is now to old for this type of seat. Wish I saw this sooner, because for some reason I didn't think I could make my own. doh.

Love the fabric……where did you buy it?? I actually just saw it the other day as a blanket someone made and really want to buy some :D

These are great!
I actually recently purchased one from Carseat Canopy (that is the name of the company as well as what they call these clever, blankets that stay attached to your carseat) for $15, because I received a promo code for one. They regularly sell for $49.95!!! If I had known they were so simple, I would have just taken the project on myself.
Something a little different that this company did was line the inside with minky, for a super-soft, very warm version of what you have made. They also use buttons for attaching the straps, which might be more handy when your little one gets older and starts yanking on things. For our first baby, I just used a receiving blanket, but the idea of having it attached to the handle is awesome; no more fly-away blankets :)
Thanks for the tutorial!

THANK YOU for this tutorial! I made a girly one for my baby-to-be and it turned out great! I added little clasps in all four corners to clip it down to the fabric around the edges of the carseat for windy days! THANKS AGAIN!! :)
K&H's Mommy March 29, 2012 at 6:04 pm #
I absolutely love this! My little sister is about to have a baby and they live in an area where they can get everywhere by public transportation to they have no car. She didn't get a carseat cover at her baby shower like she hoped, so I have been looking for an easy one that I can make for her. This is perfect!!! Thanks for sharing your skills!

thanks for sharing such a nice idea. it help in making the cover easily.
smilingwoman September 26, 2012 at 1:20 am #
This is such a great idea! I have the fabric ready to cut and sew for my newest grand baby that is currently "in the oven". Thanks so much for the inspiration and the patterns and practical help making great stuff for family & home.

I just finished making one of these, and it turned out beautifully!

I found this on Pinterest and just made one for my friend who's expecting a girl. We live in what feels like the rain capital of them world, so I made one side with Michael Miller's Peace Daisy PUL. It turned out great, thanks so much for tutorial!
Why do people always want to see/touch your baby? I love the tutorial. Thank you for sharing. The other day I was at Costco and a lady approached me and asked me to lift my blanket so that she could see my baby. I just don't understand what makes a stranger approach someone wanting to see a baby? It is a friggin baby. They are everywhere. You don'thave to see ALL of them! I told her "I'm sorry but I am actually afraid the bright lights could wake her up if I do." Lord knows a lady crazy enough to ask a stranger to see a baby is probably crazy enough to touch.
Thanks for sharing the tutorial…
it reminds me on a story I read on a blog… the lady had twins… and they were so small, that one day when she was shopping she put them both in one car seat (just for the shopping tripp not in the car)… then she threw a blanket over the seat because with twins you have this double attraction… one twin was laying with kind of crossed legs so there were three legs showing ;-)
you get the picture ;-)
no one bothered to ask anything…
but the looks ;-)
warmest regards from Germany

TNB: Five Things I Don't Hate About Climbing
As I was taking the long walk to the boulders of Mount Evans, my mind began orchestrating an order to the work projects and tedious chores of my life.
As I was taking the long walk to the boulders of Mount Evans, my mind began orchestrating an order to the work projects and tedious chores of my life. I moved at a brisk pace through the timbers and weeds, my negligent crash pad brushing columbine and purple fringe, now in full bloom.
I wondered what to write my next column about, but no ideas transpired and my mind turned against me. Amateur!
I surveyed the field of erratics in the alpine cirque of Mount Evans. The boulders relaxed on the grassy slope, taking a mere nap, a geological nanosecond, before moving on to rock Nirvana and being reincarnated by the earth's liquid-hot core.
As it so happens, the boulders have held their particular shapes and angles long enough for humans — generally young, strong and loud ones — to climb their facets, name them and assign them numbers, which are subsequently logged and debated on websites designed for this sole purpose.
Jen and I lapped a V2 to warm up, and tried a tall V6 with a devious sloper that rendered us phlegm, and our crash pads, a spittoon. So we headed up to the world-famous Dali boulder to try its namesake V8. Perhaps the addition of two more V points would change our luck.
Approaching the holiest (sacred, not hueco'ed) boulder in all of Boulder, I heard the growing din of an iPod boom box playing distinctly hipster anthems. This could only mean one thing: douchebags.
Upon rounding the corner, I was surprised to find only two buddies,[1] far fewer than the standard 40 or so normally lying stoned and half asleep on camping beds (crash pads).
The first buddy had scrappy brown hair and a loud little flavor-saver under his lip. The second buddy was blond and possessed a neater appearance that suggested a quieter demeanor. Brown-haired buddy came up to me.
"Hello," he said, putting out a hand to shake. "I'm Lord Science."
It was my lucky day.
How he came to acquire such an honorific sobriquet is not worth detailing, because his explanation was broke. You know — it made no cents. Despite the grandiose name, Lord Science seemed like a regular dude who, by his own admission, talked way too much. Now, I've heard that people like him exist in the bouldering community, so I was more or less prepared for the incessant chattering and unsolicited beta. But can you imagine how a naive but otherwise decent person would react to being so vigorously spoken to when he is simply trying to do some rock climbing in a peaceful alpine setting? It's no wonder that climbers hate each other.
I chalked up for the Dali, grabbed the starting grip, made two moves and fell. Fortunately, Lord Science was right there with a list of things I had done wrong, from the placement of my left foot to the more aggressive thumb wrap I'd need with the right hand. The only thing the list forgot to include was coming to Mount Evans in the first place.
Jen was less fortunate than I: she didn't even complete a single move before the onslaught began. Jen had opted to experiment with a viciously tiny crimp she thought might help avoid the low-percentage dyno. She locked off, but pulled up just an inch shy of the crimp.
"You need your foot up on this hold," Lord Science explained. "And your left hip needs to be closer to the wall. OK? Got it? Left foot here. Hip closer to the wall."
Despite being 5'4, and having a negative-two ape index, Jen is an impressive 5.13 climber, an expert at deciphering clever and efficient beta that works. I wanted to explain this on her behalf, but I was too busy daydreaming about sweet murder.
"My foot was on that foothold," Jen retorted.
"I don't think it was," said Science.
Sometimes you can't fight words with words. No matter. Jen had a better idea. She placed her toe on the exact foothold pedantically pointed out by the Lord, while I boosted her against the wall so that not only her hip but the entire left side of her body was flush with the stone. Lo and behold, her hand, still, was one inch shy.
"See?" Jen said.
"Oh," said Lord Science, whose commentary had suddenly run dry. Jen is a kindergarten teacher, and in that moment, as I held her hip against the 45-degree wall of the Dali boulder, I was offered a glimpse into what her daily life in the classroom must be like.
"So, have you done this problem?" I asked Science.
"No, but I've been working on it for a year or two. It's hard. People say it's V8, but I'm taking V9 when I do it."
I find it odd that climbers, myself included, typically hate being given beta. Why wouldn't we accept, with open arms and open minds, advice that could potentially help us succeed? The problem, of course, is in the delivery. How you go about giving beta is as important as, if not more so than, the beta itself. These are things I wanted to remind Lord Science of, not to mention that since he has failed to actually do the problem, how does he know that his beta isn't bad beta? Why wouldn't he consider, given his own circumstances, that he might be giving us the beta for turning Daniel Woods' warm-up into a two-year project?
"Captain Math, or whatever his name is," Jen whispered from the corner of her mouth (a weird idiosyncrasy she'd unknowingly acquired recently), "might be the most obnoxious person I've ever met!"
I sighed. I hated to agree only because another column complaining about obnoxious beta spewers would be an old chestnut, a joke that has worn thin and tedious. I prayed for something sensational to happen to give me something better to work with. A wobbler, fisticuffs, the spontaneous appearance of Jens Larssen and the 8a.nu grade police to take a stand on the V8/9 slash grade of the Dalianything!
But alas, nothing happened except that a Biblical storm moved in. Lord Science escaped just in time, but Jen and I cowered in a hole under our crash pads, getting positively soaked and watching water stream down the problem, which, on that day, would not be sent by anyone. Lord Science turned out to be just a regular ol' standard-issue beta lord, while I ended up cold, wet and still without any good column ideas.
"Why can't you write positive things?" one reader e-mailed me. "I want to read about all the positive things in climbing that uplift me."
"Like what?"
In writing, it's easy to fall into the trap of deriving humor at the expense of something else, whether it's other people, or their dumb ideas, or even yourself and your own dumb ideas. However, the thought of candied articles about all of the positive things that we love most in climbing makes me gag worse than the Facebook status update I recently read, from a friend and new mother, who wondered whether it's OK to put breast milk in her coffee if she runs out of cream. (No, it's definitely not.)
Of course, I love climbing and its many positive and uplifting things. But like most climbers I know, I don't think this way. There are too many good things in climbing worth hating: boastful spray lords who are so plainly compensating for their other inadequacies, still-virgin gear junkies, haughty alpinists and their unrealized homosexual tendencies, those poor and uncoordinated gumbies, and, of course, the audacity of pro climbers who think that just because they climb hard, other people should give a shit about them and companies should pay for their self-indulgent lives. The list goes on and on.
I recognize that just ripping on guys like Lord Science is cheap and easy, not something that illuminates this Sport of Kings, as the gifted writer John Long most aptly called it.
But surely there's a compromise to a cloying, everything-is-wonderful portrait of our sport, and I think I may have found it in this tangential ending, a list of five things I don't hate about climbing.
1. The Global Bender. There are vertical planes to be scaled in every single country on earth. Think about how cool that is — especially if it's actually true. Not even surfers, who spend their days with hot girls in bikinis, are so fortunate. Climbing is not only the perfect reason to see the world, it puts you on a wild course that few people ever tread, but those who do, all seem to know and like each other. The more I travel for climbing, the more I realize that these trips will be the reason I climb till the day I can't hold on any longer.
Of course, there are exorbitant costs to going anywhere farther than the local blood bank. Plus, I suspect that the people who run airline companies make Marsellus Wallace from Pulp Fiction look like the Dalai Lama. Then there are bad exchange rates, not to mention the rest of the world hating us, not to mention the septic systems found in places like Greece or Mexico, where you throw toilet paper into a trash bin instead of flushing it. How barbaric! The writer David Sedaris put it best: "Greece invented democracy and built the Parthenon and then decided to call it a day."
2. Deep-water soloing with girls in bikinis. This one doesn't need any explanation. However, I will add that since deep-water soloing means "going to Europe" (if you want the good stuff), and going to Europe means Euros, then "deep-water soloing with girls in bikinis" also means deep-water soloing with heinous hairy-backed Euros falling out of their banana hammocks and jockos.
You want to scream out, "No, stemming is not the beta! Stop stemming!" but you don't know the Spanish words for indecent exposure. Instead, you resign yourself to a lifetime of nightmares.
3. It's all so different … yet the same! Climbing is varied. When you get sick of sport climbing, you can go trad climbing or bouldering or, what the hell, aid climbing if you're really feeling lazy. Best of all, these pursuits — each one fulfilling, challenging and uplifting in its own way — often correspond directly with the change of seasons, providing an invigorating circadian rhythm to your vertical life.
Think about how well climbing's varied disciplines complement each other. Sport helps you become better at trad, and trad helps you look at yourself in the mirror and not hate what you see.
4. Everyone can do it. One of the last remaining myths about climbing is that it's an elite gig for hardcore chisel-chinned alpha dogs. This is changing as new gyms, and new cliffs, pop up around the country like mushrooms, and more people are being encouraged to try the sport. What a great thing. Climbing saved my life. Now I have the pleasure of watching it save my younger sister, a positively thrilled gumby who is suddenly full of confidence and brimming with a meaning greater than herself.
Climbing's growth — which I know some people dislike, but I openly don't hate — must be in part credited to the sweet companies that make comfortable and user-friendly gear that keeps us safe. It also has a lot to do with the pro climbers, who make climbing look cool and fun, and whose self-indulgent videos keep us stoked to improve.
5. Lord Science. Well, I guess I don't hate Lord Science, either. I actually thought he was pretty funny. And to be honest, on the next trip to Mount Evans, Lord Science's beta worked perfectly.
Andrew Bisharat wants to thank Lord Science for the column idea as well.
