How to remove roots & staining left by ivy without damaging the brick & mortar
Our house had ivy growing on it before we purchased it a couple of years ago. We removed the ivy but it left roots and staining on the surface of the brick that we wanted to clean. We tried power washing and scrubbing with a wire brush. Both were effective, but too harsh for the brick (it removed some of the original white wash finish.) We ended up using this method which was both effective and relatively easy.
Note: After the scraping and scrubbing, we did rinse the brick one more time, which I did not show in the video.

When decorating with real candles, I will usually stick them into place with hot wax or hot glue. Since an LED candle has an on-off button on the bottom and the bottom needs to be removed to change out the batteries, I needed to figure out a new way to make the flameless taper candles stand up in an unconventional candle holder. Here is what I came up with... LED flameless real wax candles - bi...

    You are reading your pattern left to right. Normally, you read right to left. Is this because of where the thumb is? In other words, for the 2nd mitten, will you work right to left? I’m so confused, did 8 word that correctly? Reading left to right is really throwing me off.

    This video is well intentioned, but has several issues. One, there wasn't enough emphasis on how incredibly small of a hook and yarn was used, so anyone trying this needs to have a specific size or it will turn out too big. Two the magic circle was done incorrectly (also why there was knots in it). Three, the pattern of increases was incorrect as well, specifically on row 2.
