The Eastern Woodland people also made jewelry such as gorgets, armbands, earrings, and necklaces. The gorgets were created with pendants with two holes in them from shell, slate or shale stone. They were strung with lacing and worn around the neck. Armbands were typically made of metal such as copper. They also made them out of bones. Metal armbands could be simple, narrow bands or stamped and decorated. They were also made of beaded leather strips or finger woven wool. Earrings were simple metal hoops with beads or pendants dangling from them. This type of jewelry was also worn in piercings through the septum of their noses. Necklaces were made from a wide variety of materials. Pendants were made from bone, shell, stone and metal. Beads made from shell, stone, metal, wood and glass were strung in single or multiple strands. More intricate necklaces were made by stringing bear claws or bird claws. Overall, the Eastern Woodlands people made many items to help them with their everyday lives and I think that they were very talented and creative for being able to make these items such as the jewelry and all the
A piñata is known to be a container that is made of a few different materials. They are mostly made of pottery, cloth or paper maché. Piñatas are usually decorated, filled with candy and toys so that when they are broken during a celebration or ceremony, the goodies burst out for everyone to enjoy. Piñatas come in a lot of different colors and shapes. When the piñatas were first made, the Chinese piñatas were in the shape of an ox or cow and used for the New Year celebration. Today, piñatas come in many shapes, colors, designs and even characters.
Wrist instruments enable the surgeon to perform tasks such as clamping and stitching as they are designed with seven degrees of motion that mimic the dexterity of the human hand and wrist.
What you will need to do first is tie one end of the string to the middle of the popsicle stick or pencil.
These beads were most often made of “shell, pearl, bone, teeth, or stone” (Curtis). Although they are rare, some beads have even been found in the American Southeast that were made from copper nuggets (Power 54). These types of beads tended to be large and bulky, meaning they were normally strung on necklaces or thongs as opposed to being used as a form of ornate decoration. These beads were also time-consuming to make. The Native’s lack of metal tools during this period meant that they had to construct their own implements out of stone or wood and use abrasives such as sand to shape and hollow out the beads
Glitter is used in today’s society in or on almost everything. Glitter can be purchased in a variety of sizes and colors. Glitter can be made from tiny pieces of glass, paper, plastic, minerals, polyester or even stone. The light reflecting off of these tiny pieces is what cause glitter to shine at different angles. Glitter can be used in crafts, clothing, makeup and nails, body and hair sprays, and even on food with an edible version.
Now that you know a little more about my topic, I will go back through all my ideas. I will use some sort of protective material to help prevent the egg from breaking. Once I find what will best protect the egg, I hope that stores will cover/wrap eggs in the protective surface. This will help prevent the eggs from breaking in the containers.
A watch is a small timepiece intended to be carried or worn by a person. Watches were first worn by military men towards the end of the 19th century to synchronize manoeuvres during war without potentially revealing the plan to the enemy through signaling. Commonly, watches are appreciated as jewelry or collectible works of art rather than just as timepieces. However, the Casio engineers are taking on the challenge of creating the world’s toughest watches to shatter the notion that a watch is a fragile piece of jewelry that needs to be handled with care.
Once the garment is chosen it is time to purchase the dye. Dye kits can very easily be purchased in craft stores, such as Hobby Lobby and Michaels, and will include everything you need. Inside of the kit there will be rubber gloves, rubber bands, soda ash, urea, and easy to follow instructions. The dyes will come in squeeze bottles separately if they are not already available. Out of all the dyes the best one to use is Progon dyes because they are the brightest.
Safety is a primary concern in the health care environment, but there are still many preventable errors that occur. In fact, a study from ProPublica in 2013 found that between 210,000 and 440,000 patients each year suffer preventable harm in the hospital (Allen, 2013). Safety in the healthcare environment is not only keeping the patient safe, but also the employee. If a nurse does not follow procedure, they could bring harm to themselves, the patient, or both. Although it seems like such a simple topic with a simple solution, there are several components to what safety really entails. Health care professionals must always be cautious to prevent any mishaps to their patients, especially when using machines or lifting objects, as it has a higher
Needles are most commonly made from metal, wood, bamboo, or plastic (McIntosh 43). Needles also come in various sizes, including length and diameter. The diameter determines the size of the stitch and the length is important for the size of the project (McIntosh 43). McIntosh provides the example that you use a larger diameter needle for larger stitches and longer needles for large projects, like shawls (43). Furthermore, needles are available in three different styles and the style that you use is normally based on personal preference. The first two styles are very similar in that they have slender shafts intended to “hold the stitches that are not yet woven into the knitted fabric to prevent them from unraveling” (McIntosh 43). The only difference between these two is that the first, and most popular, style are pointed at one end and have knobs on the other, whereas the second are pointed on both ends. The third style of needles – known as circular knitting needles – have two pointed ends “connected by a flexible cord that holds the unworked stitches” (McIntosh 43). The knob on the first style of needles is meant to keep stiches from sneaking off the needle. The purpose of the pointed end is to create new stitches, which is why it can be found on all three styles. In order to create new stitches, the knitter “insert[s] the tapered end of one needle through
It’s true what everyone talks about safety – you are the key to your safety, when you do it safely you do it the right way and the best gift you can give to your family is to always stay safe. We have been taught by our parents and teachers to be cautious while doing a number of things. That’s very essential in our daily lives, because one needs to be extra cautious to prevent unavoidable accidents. However, mishaps do happen everywhere in the safest of places, no matter how careful we are in our actions. It is highly unpredictable, what’s going to happen the very next instant. There are numerous incidences we come across like simple trips, falls, cuts due to sharp objects, burns or sudden worsening of a person’s health condition, causing
Painless needles are one way technology is improving society. Needles are always scaring young children and even adults. Now with the new painless needle pediatricians can give vaccinations pain free. Researchers at Georgia Institute of Technology call theses new needles micro needles. [1] They are made from silicon, metal, glass or biodegradable polymer. Theses needles are 500 times smaller then ordinary hypodermic needles, which are too small to irritate nerve endings. These new needles will consist of 400 embedded micro needles will be glued to a patch that will gently puncture the skin. Now with this new technology society can have pain free shots.
The materials used for my project, include: a sweatshirt, twizzlers, and glue. I came up with the idea of gluing the twizzlers to the sweatshirt. When I first began this project, I did not count on being faced with any problems. I thought that I would just glue tiny pieces of cut up twizzler to the sweatshirt and that would be that. The first problem that I faced was: the candy would not stick to the sweatshirt. For whatever reason, the glue was not able to hold the twizzler pieces to the front of the sweatshirt. This definitely prolonged the gluing process. Once this problem had arisen, I went back to try to think of what I would be able to use to glue this candy to. I tried two different things. The first, a sheet. The problems with that was, that the sheet was so flimsy, that when I went to hold it up (like I was going to show it to someone), the candy pieces fell off. The second thing I attempted was a bath towel. The issue with that, was it was too thick. The pieces of candy stayed glued, but the end presentation was not something that I would have been proud to show to the class.
When you were young, you may have remembered about trying to make objects stick together or move things, like metal paperclips, just by using a magnet. Back then, you probably thought that magnets’ only exist as play things. But, now that you’re older, you’ve realised that these objects play a significant role in day-to-day life.
