Some other tips (from onewed.com)…
Get a good set of hot rollers. Hot rollers are key to creating loose, natural-looking curls. Wash your hair, apply some curling cream to the roots, flip your head over and blow dry upside down. Flip hair again and brush it out lightly. When your hair is dry, section off large pieces and set them in hot rollers, starting at your forehead, working your way to the sides, and finishing with the back. Rub some curling cream between your palms, remove the rollers, then finger-style to reduce frizz. “You’ll be left with soft, piece-y curls that are easy to sweep up and pin in place,” says Romero.
• Use the train track bobby pin method. “When you’re ready to create the updo, put away your comband brush. “They’re a trade secret. They don’t slip and come in colors to match your hair.” Starting at the front of your head, take a three-inch section and gently pull it back, securing with two bobby pins, criss-

Basic 40s and 50s Curl Sets « Skirting The Issue
I love sharing my little revelations with you guys, so since I finally got two basic curl sets figured out I thought I should write a tutorial. I’m going to show you a good basic 40s set, and a basic 50s set. The difference is that the 40s set has more volume on the bottom half and generally lies smooth over the crown, where the 50s set has more volume all over. Though they seem to be so similar you could easily interchange them and hardly anybody would know the difference. Depending on your hair, one could turn out looking like the other.
I’m going to show you the setting patterns for rollers since most of us are not quite skilled enough in the art of pin curls, but if you are they’re easily converted. You’ll have more and smaller curls but the directions will be the same. These are great beginner sets; they don’t involve a bunch of different layers going in opposite directions, and with practice they can easily be done in 10-15 minutes. For the sake of simplicity, I’ll be showing you my own hair after being set by the diagrams I’ve made (though I take no credit for designing them. Chances are a bazillion people before me have done the same ones). The celebrities hair have of course not been done using my diagrams, but it was probably set in a similar way and they do a better job of showing the difference between the decades, and an idealized look at how these should turn out. Now don’t forget your end papers and setting lotion! Ready?
Let’s start with the 40s set.
Front
Back
Veronica Lake, who's hair is even longer than my own.
Lauren Bacall, with a more traditional length.
This set is rolled only up to your ears, excepting the bang area which goes right up to the scalp, so the long curl will help frame your face. All curls will be going down, but you can tilt the ones in front towards your face if you like. You can do this in as many rows as you like, but for normal to fine hair and using rollers one can easily be enough. I prefer to have the curls done in an even row(s) all around the head, so that when you brush it out it creates nice uniform waves, but as every day 40s hair tends to be a little fluffier this isn’t so necessary. This is in fact an excellent set to try doing with pin curls.
You probably won't need this.
When your hair is set, it might actually look pretty cute. If you come out with kinks in the top, you can use a flat iron or curling iron to smooth it out. Keep in mind that sponge rollers with their plastic clasps do tend to create kinks more than others, so I’m not partial to them. But you can use whatever you’re most comfortable with. I’m loyal to my pillow rollers, and when they’re not available I rag roll with whatever I can find. There’s a how-to video on this at the bottom of the article. Here’s the 40s set done with strips of paper towels. It needed to be brushed again, so don’t mind the ringlets and crazy flyaways.
And now here’s the 50s set.
Damn, I got that on the first try! I wish I could say the same for the second and third tries. We’re all learning together. You might find that this looks similar to the 40s set, however it’s rolled right up to the scalp which creates more volume all over. You can see the difference a lot better on shorter hair.
Elizabeth Taylor's shorter hair demonstrates the volume starting right from the crown, as opposed to the more bottom-heavy look of the 40s.
Again, keep in mind that your hair cut affects the final look, so you might not have those face framing curls from the pictures. And if your hair is longer like mine, the weight might keep the crown looking smooth and 40s no matter what. That doesn’t mean it won’t look good, just go with what you have and make it yours.
My crappy drawing is a rough guide to how the curls should be positioned. Hopefully it's not TOO crappy to understand.
As you can see, there are about 4 curls going down the center of the head; the front one going forward and the others going back. The second one can go towards what will be the thick side of your part, but I find it difficult for some reason and unnecessary. Then you’ll have two on each side going down.
The easiest way to go about this is to start with your hair parted deeply to whichever side you prefer, about over the arch of your eyebrow. Grab the section above your ear on the thin side and curl it down, or angled slightly forward if you like. Then grab a section of similar size behind it and curl it down as well, trying to get it to the same level. Then you can do the two curls on the top of your head, separated by another symmetrical parting over the other eyebrow. Curl the other side to match the first, and finally separate what’s left in the back into two curls going downward. Like before, if you have more hair or you’re using smaller rollers or pin curls, you’ll have more curls but they’ll still be going the same way. When you’re done you’ll look incredibly silly. Cover with a Rosie bandanna.
Make sure to brush this one out slowly and against your hand to keep it as smooth as possible, and shape the curls so they blend together. Hopefully you come out with a winner!
Like this!
I hope I explained these well enough. If you have any questions let me know. I’m going to finalize this by showing you a video that explains rag rolling quite well, since it’s incredibly useful if you don’t have any rollers handy and it’s something a lot of people have trouble with. It’s not half as hard as you might think. Good luck, guys!

Skirting The Issue
Now, the most important thing to create a beehive is a rat, or hair filler. I mean, you don’t NEED one, but it’s a hell of a lot harder without it, and you’re more likely to end up with a rat’s nest instead. I use a long narrow rat for bumper bangs, so I curved it into a U shape with the middle facing up for this look. You can also just use a round or ball-y shaped one. A lot of people put cotton or fake/real hair into some pantyhose or a hair net for this. Bumpits are crap btw. Put your rat on the crown of your head or slightly higher in case of sagging or just to make it all the more epic. Pin it in place. Then bit by bit, take the hair from the top of your head and tease the living shit out of it, and pin it over the rat. Do this until you look like Dolly Parton. The last bit that will cover the surface should be left smooth. Then you just need pomade and a light touch with a comb to smooth the top out, and lot of hairspray. I slept in mine and it somehow actually survived, only shrinking a little. Which was perfect as I was feeling lazy and liked it and wanted to leave it up for work. Anyway, you can leave the bottom in beachy waves like Bridgette Bardot, put it in a ponytail, or for more of a Hairspray or formal look, twist it up into a French twist and tuck the ends in.
Holy crap that was easy.
This is not me, but I do feel this fabulous.

Some notes:
Lense: Standard 18-55- kit lense with 13 mm spacer ring. This spacer ring, from a set of three (13, 21,31, chinese product), is active and supports aperture control and autofocus (Amazon, approx. 100 Euro / set). In this application, this is not really necessary, because focussing is done best manually and aperture is fully opened most of the time.

I got Ariel today. I ordered her online on release day, October 27, 2018. She is #2047 of 4500. She and the box arrived in perfect shape. However, the invitation card has slipped down in the plastic sleeve, and won't stay up. I love her face and hair, but her dress is a bit too gaudy for my taste, although it is appropriate for an 80's girl. Her hair is stiff at the ends to keep its curl, so it got a little messy when I broke it up to even out her hair in the back. I cut off the rubber band securing the purse string to her shoulder. I had to use a little tape to keep it from sliding off her shoulder afterwards. I show her boxed, during deboxing, and fully deboxed. I have her now on my desk, right next to me as I type this. It is convenient that I got her just before the next one, Tiana, is released tomorrow.

I discovered these mock bank notes in a random shop and loved them. They are quite detailed (with more pictures on the back) and there is one for every Tudor monarch, the six wives and Prince Arthur. I love how they say very blatantly – ‘this note is not legal tender’. As if someone needed to be alerted to that...
You can download the template for these printable sticky notes at my blog! They are lots of fun to make!
The leaf veins have taken on a more stylized look. It was interesting to connect the pathways and fill some negative spaces with snippets of fabric, paper and photos. There is a map effect which I like here but not sure if I will use in my final stitch project. It is not free enough for me.

Someone asked if I could make this Field Notes leather case so I made this just to see what'd happen. I tried to wetform the top around a little note pad. I'm sure I did everything wrong, but also learned a few things as well.

Clarinetto: Da Wikipedia, l'enciclopedia libera StoriaLo strumento più antico che adotta il principio dell'ancia semplice è il memet egiziano, costituito da una coppia di canne e conosciuto dal 2700 a.C. Esistono vari tipi di strumenti che adottano questo principio tra cui le launeddas sarde, conosciute dal 900 a.C. Sullo stesso principio si basa lo chalumeau, il predecessore del clarinetto, costituito da un tubo cilindrico di canna alla cui parte superiore c'era un'incisione fatta per ricavare l'ancia.
Lo chalumeau fu soggetto ad innovazione attorno al 1690 da parte di Joahnn Christian Denner, un artigiano di Norimberga. Lo strumento di Denner aveva sei fori anteriori e uno posteriore e due chiavi chiuse, una posta sopra i fori anteriori e l'altra su quello posteriore, che chiudevano altri due fori. Successivamente Denner e i suoi figli hanno spostato il foro della chiave posteriore e lo hanno rimpicciolito per poterlo utilizzare sia come chiave del Sib, sia come foro portavoce, aprendo quindi le porte del registro superiore o "registro di clarino".
Il termine clarinetto appare per la prima volta nel 1732 nel "Musicalishes Lexicon" di Johan Gottfried Walther in cui è scritto: "Sentito a distanza, esso suona piuttosto come una tromba". Ciò spiega il nome clarinetto derivato da clarino, termine oggigiorno utilizzato impropriamente, che indica uno strumento appartenente alla famiglia delle trombe. Il clarinetto ebbe un suono penetrante probabilmente fino al principio del 1800; si ritiene così perché i metodi per imparare a suonare il clarinetto pubblicati dal 1850 sottolineano il suono "ora più pieno, dolce e piacevole" dei clarinetti precedenti.
Lo sviluppo del clarinetto continua nel 1740 quando Jacob Denner (figlio di Joahnn Christian) aggiunse al clarinetto una lunga chiave aperta per realizzare il Si3 (prima impossibile), riempiendo questo "buco nell'estensione dello strumento e portandolo all'estensione attuale. Nei decenni successivi diversi artigiani hanno fatto tentativi per migliorare lo strumento, senza ottenere risultati rilevanti. Un passo importante è stato fatto da Ivan Müller, un musicista parigino nato in Russia. Müller costruì un clarinetto dalle caratteristiche rivoluzionarie. Il suo strumento aveva tredici chiavi con un nuovo tipo di cuscinetti e con i fori cigliati. Quello di Müller è stato il primo clarinetto a poter suonare in tutte le tonalità. Nel 1812 fu esaminato dagli specialisti del conservatorio di Parigi e, nonostante le sue notevoli potenzialità, fu rifiutato. Nonostante ciò il clarinetto di Müller ha posto le basi al clarinetto tedesco.
Successive modifiche al clarinetto sono state apportate da Hyacinthe Eléonore Klosé, il produttore del clarinetto "sistema Boehm". Klosé ha basato il suo lavoro su quello fatto da Theobald Boehm che introdusse sul flauto le chiavi ad anello. Klosé adottò gli anelli sul clarinetto, adottò i fori cigliati di Müller e aggiunse nuove chiavi per un totale di diciassette. Questo strumento era facile da gestire e dava la possibilità di suonare in tutte le tonalità. Fu Klosé stesso ad esibirlo per la prima volta a Parigi nel 1839. Oggi è il tipo di clarinetto più diffuso.
Al clarinetto di Müller gli anelli sono stati applicati da Carl Bärmann. Poi Oskar Oehler modificò la posizione delle chiavi adattandole alle caratteristiche delle mani e migliorando quelle acustiche. Questo è il clarinetto attualmente utilizzato in Germania e, con piccole differenze, in Austria.
Il clarinetto è tuttora sottoposto a miglioramenti tecnici. Si cerca di ottenere caratteristiche acustiche sempre migliori e maggiore maneggevolezza da parte degli esecutori. Tra i contemporanei che più di altri si sono cimentati nel migliorare lo strumento sono da ricordare il clarinettista Rosario Mazzeo e lo svizzero Renè Hagmann.
