How best to wash fake fur?

Posted on February 20, 2011 by admin| 2 Comments

I read a while back on a couple of sites that I could, but now can’t find them. You CAN wash it, on delicate, but must it be inside out? I’m talking a cheapish fake fur coat, where the cost of professional fur cleaning would be half its price (on sale 50% off).

I know you’re not supposed to put them in the dryer whatsoever, even on “fluff.” Do you suppose, once it’s been line dried, I could put it in for just a minute to fluff? It wouldn’t be the end of the world if it didn’t come out looking new, but would it hurt the dryer?

Would love to hear if anyone has done this.

Is There Any Way To Take A Waffle Cone And Treat It . . .?

Posted on May 29, 2010 by admin| 2 Comments

so as to preserve it for use as something else other than food? I want to take a waffle cone – the kind used for ice cream cones – and coat it in something perhaps so that it will not break or crack and I can use it as a party favor. It is possible to coat flowers to preserve them. Can you coat actual foods too? Help!!!

starved dog?

Posted on March 5, 2010 by admin| 13 Comments

Ok..My friends neighbor has a pit bull. when she stands up you can clearly see her spine, her legs are skinny, and big patches of her coat is missing…i call it neglect, starvation, etc. I really like the dog..ive took her some food and she’s really friendly, and nice. he had another dog before her that he starved and the pound took away. should i call the pound on this one? or should i just take her? i know it sounds bad to ask if i should take her, but shes so beautiful, and friendly…and its just a sad thing to see such a dog being starved :( what should I do?
keeping in mind…the only dog pound around this area will probably kill a pit bull fast…and if not they only live 2 weeks before they gas them to death :( i couldnt work at the pound..i would have already adopted every animal there my yard and house would be full of animals..wouldnt be able to walk without having to step over an animal lol…i love animals!
does anyone know of any places around illinois area that have pit welcomes, or places that accepts them without killing them? websites or anything? if so msg me, i have y! messenger.
