Ever get tired of the small troubles you keep having in your hobby? Try these useful tips and work away for happier days:
Keep your brushes soft and feeling new by washing them after every use. Just put them under warm running water and soap away with your hands. Make sure you take out everything on the bristles that would make them crusty and hard. If you have stiff brushes, you can try to putting them in a cup of fabric softener for a few hours and they'll be back to their soft selves.
If your projects involve a lot of painting, then try to cover your working area with newspaper to keep the paint from getting where it's not supposed to go. If you're working with glue or thick paints, you might want to double or even triple the newspaper layers to make sure that they don't bleed through to your surface.
If you want to remove glue stains from your clothes, or your furniture or wherever you don't want glue on, you can try using some rubbing alcohol. It softens the glue up and dissolves it easily. Rubbing alcohol is good for glue stains that have already hardened too.
