Where can I get blank wooden bangles in the UK?
Hi,
I’m looking for some large blank wooden bangles that I can decorate myself. These ones here are perfect….

…but the postage from the US is really high. Does anyone know where I can purchase something similar in the UK?
Thank you.
They sell them in fair trade shops such as Sundance.

What are the advantages of having a metal swing set in comparison to a wooden swing set?
Shoppers can usually choose between wood, metal, and plastic play equipment. Plastic is the safest, but is only suitable for very young children, and doesn’t weather well. Wood is sometimes thought to be more attractive, but comes with a hefty price tag. The familiar metal swing set, however, scores well on all three fronts, as long as you take a little care.
Creating a mini-playground in a small yard takes a little planning. But once in place, it will provide your kids or grandkids with hours of entertainment and exercise. Today’s play equipment doesn’t have to be gigantic. You can choose from a wide selection of swing-sets, slide sets, play towers and sandboxes that are big on fun, but small in size.
When yard space is at a premium, the size of play equipment is an important consideration. Fortunately, manufacturers offer everything from small plastic play structures to downsized metal and wood play centres – complete with swings, tower and slide.
Metal swing sets are considered by many to be the sturdiest option on the market. However, it’s important to buy a quality set, made from galvanized steel that will not rust. Regular steel that has just been painted to retard rust will deteriorate if the paint film is ever damaged. Sets that don’t feature galvanized steel are also often of lower quality. There are a number of different styles and sizes of metal swing set. Some include slides, monkey bars, and other fun toys, while others have only basic swings.
Recently, wooden swing sets have gotten a lot more popular. These back yard structures offer the opportunity for kids to play near their own homes, safely, and for parents to keep an eye on them. They’re also visually attractive, durable, and fun. While older models were somewhat hazardous, new additions to wooden swing sets and play equipment, like plastic slides, coated chains, and well finished wood that helps kids avoid splinters make wooden sets a viable option. However, there are lots of models on the market, and choosing can be a real trick. There’s more to picking a wooden swing set than just buying the first one that looks good.
There are three basic types of wooden swing sets: do-it-yourself, plastic composite, and wood included. They all have their own benefits and drawbacks. For instance, doing it yourself is probably the cheapest route, if you happen to be a carpenter and have the tools to do the job. Maintenance is low, but you’ll have to transport and finish the wood yourself, as well as selecting the right set of plans. Remember that this will take longer than other kits.
Having a swing set of your own is a great way to thrill your children. There are many great children’s swing sets out there today, and when you pick out a great swing set, you can provide your kids with many great benefits. One of the main benefits of having children’s swing sets for your own children is that they are a cost effective way to keep your kids entertained. Most swing sets are really not all that expensive, and they provide hours of entertainment and fun to your children. If you are looking for a great way to keep your kids entertained other than TV and video games, then a good swing set is a great idea for your home.
A metal swing set has its advantages, it is very sturdy, usually dependable, and very common—probably the most common kind of swing set. There are only a couple of little things to watch for: the surface underneath, as well as the poles on each side—that they are mounted sturdily into the ground. Secondly the metal swing set must be well mounted into the ground. If the metal swing set seems or looks unsteady, avoid using it.
Metal swing sets are also known as traditional swing sets. Compared with wooden swing sets, metal swing sets have fewer features. However, it contains slides of different shapes and swings of distinct use and kind. Certain metal swing sets feature mild exercising equipments.
Metal sets are sturdy and long lasting but it is still important to look for quality and preferably something that is galvanised. Metal sets can often be overlooked because of the visual appeal of a timber set but their sturdiness and minimal care requirements ensure that they are built to last a lifetime.
Swing sets are a great way to get kids out of the house and moving around, while keeping them entertained. Swing sets also help develop children’s coordination skills, strength, cooperation, and social interaction skills; this makes swing sets a practical and entertaining way to educate children. Once you’ve decided on a swing set, you need to choose among the materials available for swing sets: metal, wood, or plastic.
Perhaps the most important advantage that a metal swing set has over a wooden swing set is price; metal swing sets are somewhat more affordable than wooden swing sets and are probably the most cost effective option on the market, especially compared to non-metal swing sets. Even though they are more affordable, they don’t sacrifice much in terms of sturdiness and durability. Metal swing sets last for long periods of time and many models can also support the weight of adults. Furthermore, they can withstand a great variety of weather conditions and do not easy succumb to the effects of the elements. One of the great things about wooden swing sets it that they allow you to build your own swing set. Anyone with a little DIY experience and initiative can tackle this job.
Wooden swing sets make a great addition to almost any backyard. Whether you’re looking for a simple swing for a toddler to enjoy or an elaborate playground setup that can accommodate the entire neighbourhood, there’s a swing set available to fit your needs.
Since they are very durable, wooden swing sets are a great investment for families with more than one child. If you’re looking for playground equipment that will be able to withstand years of heavy use, you can’t go wrong with a wooden swing set.

How would you decorate a wooden birdhouse? ?
I’m making a wooden birdhouse for visual arts class, and the main part of the project is the way im going to decorate. Any good ideas?
I like the look of the Victorian houses in San Francisco that are referred to as “Painted Ladies”. This is an exaggeration, but it is what I like and is the way I paint my bird houses.
