Let's get started! | | | | đ Meet the Maker đ The Woobles: Learn To Crochet in Just One Day | | A Relaxing Escape for a Google Experience Manager: The Woobles founder Justine Tiu found herself wanting to learn a new hobby as a relaxing escape. As a busy Google Experience Manager, Justine picked crochet as her escape, figuring it couldnât take more than an afternoon to learn. Right? Wrong! Justine couldnât believe how long and boring the tutorials were or how hard it was to follow a simple starter kit. She knew that with her user experience background, she could create a crochet starter kit thatâs truly for anyone. Confusing Tutorials and Complicated Starter Kits: All the crochet tutorials Justine found were unnecessarily long and hard to follow. Starter kits included a million extra components and hard-to-use materials. Her projects would never get started because the yarn would unravel or the tutorials didnât make sense. Justine was shocked that it was so difficult to start learning crochet. Easy Peasy, Failproof Crochet: Justine spent months refining the art of crochet for beginners, starting with better tutorials that are short and to the point. She also partnered with manufacturers to create beginner-friendly materials, including Easy Peasy yarn thatâs custom-made to be easy to work with. The result is The Woobles, a set of adorable pre-started animal crochet projects that give you a head start on crochet with special, impossible-to-unravel knots and stitch markers, so you know exactly what youâre doing. | | Learn Crochet with the Woobles: The Woobles have already gotten over 100,000 people hooked on crochet using teaching videos with proven methodology and adorable animal projects.

If youâve been staring at the same washer and dryer for years on end, you can jazz it up quickly using electrical tape for a chic upgrade that costs almost nothing! Electrical tape is an easy way to add high-contrast striping to your washing machine, giving it eye-catching flair without the expense of an actual designer washing machine (and without the mess of paint!) You can also use electrical tape, a stencil, and an xacto knife to cut out small dot decals for a dotted designer look. For the best results, try one of each! A striped washing machine and a dotted dryer complement each other for a brand new look in your laundry room. And you donât have to stick with the traditional black electrical tape â it comes in almost any imaginable color, so you can mix it up for a fun, simple redesign. If you want to get really artsy, think of other appliances, cabinets and household items that you can easily give a "facelift" to look brand new. If you try it, we want to see it.

Some came on after a fun night out, while others sprang up spontaneously. But whatever the cause, Jon often found himself unable to do much when he had one. During a particularly bad headache, Jon told his friend about it, hoping for a piece of advice on how to feel better. His friendâs response changed the course of Jonâs life and the way he deals with headaches⊠Acupressure Cures Headaches? Jonâs friend told him about this very specific acupressure point in his hand, located between his thumb and pointer finger, called the LI4 acupressure point. When pinched, it relieved headaches naturally and drug-free. It seemed strange to Jon, but he tried it anyway, and much to his surprise, it worked! Not one to keep the good news to himself, Jon shared this effective, all-natural relief with his friends and family. He quickly discovered, though, that many people already knew about the LI4 acupressure point as well as its two drawbacks: 1) Itâs hard to apply consistent pressure to feel true relief, and 2) You have to use both of your hands, so it limits your movement. Understanding this, Jon found a better way⊠Acupressure Relief = Aculief: The Aculief works by applying consistent and intense pressure on the LI4 pressure point â a spot that has been used for thousands of years to cure headaches. But what makes the Aculief special is its simplicity. With just a simple clip, you can attach it to your hand, so it applies the necessary pressure to provide relief while still being able to go about your day. All you have to do is place it on your hand and let it do its magic! Itâs the simplest, safest, and most effective headache relief (thatâs also drug-free!). If you suffer from headaches, the Aculief can help. | | | | | đ Featured Discoveries đ | | Lumenology: The Wireless Motion Light With 100's Of Uses That Anyone Can Install In Seconds! | | Adding professional lighting is either painfully difficult or expensive.

Donât be trapped by dogma, which is living the result of other peopleâs thinking. Donât let the noise of other opinions drown your own inner voice. And most important, have the courage to follow your heart and intuition; they somehow already know what you truly want to become.â â Steve Jobs | | | | | đŁ We Want To Hear From You What did you think about today's newsletter? | | | | | | We hope you enjoyed todayâs product discoveries!
