Things You Can Make With Lanyards

When looking for a craft project, one thing to consider is what material can be used and how expensive it will be. The other is how many things can be made from the same material, since versatility increases the craft value of the material. One material that is both economical and versatile is the lanyard.

    What Is a Lanyard?

  1. A lanyard is basically a cord of any material (usually nylon, polyester or flat cotton) that is used to fasten something or which is worn around the neck in order to carry an object. The most common applications of lanyards are ID badges and key holders, but because they can be used in place of yarn, rope or string, a little imagination can turn lanyards into just about anything.
  2. Jewelry

  3. Lanyards are very often used for jewelry making. Necklaces can be made with the lanyards themselves, while lanyard hooks can be fitted together to make a personalized pendant. Some lanyard necklaces are as simple as one lanyard and a few colored beads; the beads are simply threaded onto the lanyard and the lanyard is tied together at the ends to form a loop or secured with a hook. Friendship bracelets and earrings also are especially popular lanyard crafts for girls.
  4. Bookmarks

  5. Bookmarks are easily made with lanyards and a little plastic canvas. All you have to do is cut the plastic canvas to the shape of your choice, or a simple rectangle works just fine. Then weave the lanyard up and down through the plastic canvas and tie it off when you are done so it won't unravel. If you want, you can use different colored lanyards throughout to make a nice pattern on the bookmark.
  6. God's Eye

  7. If you are religious, you might want to try making an ornament to show your faith. You can do this with lanyards and a few craft sticks. For example, if you are Jewish, you might glue the sticks together in the shape of the Star of David and then use lanyards to wrap the sticks in color and provide a way to hang up the ornament. God's Eyes are ornaments that may be made in the same way and which represent both a child's age and the watchfulness of God.
  8. Water Bottle Holder

  9. Drinking bottled water is becoming increasingly popular. If you constantly have a bottle of water with you, you can use lanyards to make a bottle holder. A basic design involves two strands of woven lanyard attached to a plastic ring. The ring fits around your bottle, and the strands come together to form a loop that can fit around the neck.
  10. Where to Buy Lanyards

  11. Lanyards can be purchased at most craft stores and online. Some online companies specialize in lanyard sales and offer a wide variety of thicknesses and colors. This selection may be worth the extra cost of shipping that comes from online ordering.

找到一个可以替代ghs.google.com的地址

用Goole Blogger的自定义域名功能需要用到 ghs.google.com 做CNAME,或者用ping ghs.google.com 得出的IP做一个A记录.但是,伟大的GFW已经把 ghs.google.com 和部分IP屏蔽在大陆之外.这样的壮举使得我们的自定义域名不能正常访问,或者让你的网页背景.图片被滤掉,精心做成的模板变得惨白不堪. 那么,我们可不可以找一个替代 ghs.google.com 的地址呢?当然能.因为Google是强大的.它有许多有用的IP地址让你去探寻. 对 ghs.google.com 分析研究后发现, ghs.google.com 这台服务器并没有提供实质性的服务,而只是选择访问者访问最快的服务器(Google全球性公司,很多地区都有服务器).我们只要找到其他服务器的IP地址,并且这个IP地址没被屏蔽,那么就成了. 寻找这样的IP地址需要用到tracert命令.即在CMD模式下输入:tracert ghs.google.com ,在已经屏蔽的当下,最后自然得不出结果,这就需要我们使用代理了.使用不同地区的代理运行tracert ghs.google.com 命令. tracert ghs.google.com 的最后一跳会有类似这样的域名: eh-in-f121.google.com 如果在不用代理的情况下,你能ping通这个域名,那么恭喜你,你找到了!现在就可以用这个域名代替 ghs.google.com 设置你的CNAME了,ping出的IP地址可以做A记录,CNAME和A记录,只做其中之一就可以. hs-in-f121.google.com 64.233.179.121 eh-in-f121.google.com 72.14.207.121 bx-in-f121.google.com 66.249.81.121 ik-in-f121.google.com 66.249.91.121 这4个在我所在地区不能使用,而可以使用 tw-in-f121.google.com 72.14.235.121 或者209.85.171.121也可用 下面是一些不断更新的:74.125.43.121 除了使用代理来寻找,也可以通过一些网站提供的功能来寻找这个地址,很方便,就是使用网站提供的Traceroute.这些网站有: h...
