How-To Guides & Ideas

We have a lot of stuff. Sometimes we don't even know what to do with it. So we've started collecting guides to help you know all the wonderful things that can be done with all our wonderful stuff!

Friendship Flags

One of our volunteers put together some fantastic Friendship Flag kits for the 2025 C U Pride Festival. They created a kit for each of the 31 flags. You can find more information about the kits and the instructions for a simple pattern here. You can use this guide for any knotting project, not just our kits!

VHS Tape Wiping and Recording

We have a lot of VHS tapes, most of which are not exactly blockbusters. While we support archival efforts to log what might be lost media, there are some other things you can do with them! This guide will show you how to wipe and record over old VHS tapes. Whether you want a physical copy of family videos or are filming your own movie and want an authentic tinge of nostalgia, this guide is for you.

Recycling Spent Candle Wax

Are you an experienced candle maker? Then you probably don’t need this guide. Are you a novice candle maker? Then do I have the trick for you!

Use this guide to learn how you can save the leftover wax in your spent candles!

Beads 'n Buttons Bouquets

For our Beads 'N Buttons flower work shop, our AMAZING volunteer, Rachel, made this helpful (and super stylish) how-to instructional guide! Rachel did everything, from the graphic design to the photos!
