There is a huge oven pot with lid made from unglazed terracotta.I was given a vague idea that I had to soak them twice then coat in oil before using. I have searched the net to no…

I'd really like some small, light shades with the cut out effect. I like these ones but the colour won't match the room - is there any way I can paint them (safely as these lights are used regularly)? Or even make something similar?

Help! I *need* to shrink my jeans :D
Loosing weight is great till it comes to replacing my clothes... stupidly I bought some skinny jeans not a month ago while on holiday. I am rather fond of them... they won't stay UP any more - and they certainly ain't skinny. What they are though is very bold coloured. I have been using a belt but now it just looks silly.…

Boiling condensed milk for caramel
I want to make some caramel for a recipe. Now it says in the recipe I can buy dulce de leche, or boil unopened tins of condensed milk for the caramel. The tins say NOT to boil unopened as might explode? I know its H&S but can I boil them? And if so-do I just bung them in a pan and cover, or have water half way up? Can they…

Tried and tested uses for chappati flour?
Hi everyone. I'm sure I'm posting this in the wrong place so please relocate me :D My OH was being rather OS when he purchased a humongous bag of chappati flour which was about the same price as two packs of made chappatis. Which is great. Except we've still got over half a bag of the flour left. I hate waste so I'd like…
