A Place To Put Your Notebook

Most docking station users take advantage of their docks on solid ground but are also riding the waves of flexibility that the docks can provide.
"When I am at home, I have a nice pseudo-desktop machine that is up and running," James Lee of Houston says. Lee owns a Macintosh PowerBook Duo and docks it in his Apple Macintosh Dock I. He uses the dock to provide a full-sized screen and keyboard, faster modem access, and rapid backup of data. "When I get home, I dock it and back up the whole hard drive to the dock's internal drive. It works real nice," Lee says. IBM, DELL laptop docking stations

How To Sew Lingerie Clasps Or Strap Holders To Keep Undergarments Under Garments

For those of you who prefer to keep your "undergarments" under your garments, here is a little sewing tip on how to sew "Fine Jewelry Clasps " or "strap holders" to keep your bra straps in the proper place.
Make these discreet clasps from lining fabric or even rayon hem tape or ribbon.
They really help keep bra straps and lingerie from showing and also act as an anchor to keep wide necklines from falling away from the body and exposing everything from neck to waist every time you lean over.
These Jewelry Clasps can be attached to the inside at the shoulders and at the widest point of some necklines to control the dress and straps.
Here is how to make lingerie clasps.
From lining fabric:
1. For each clasp, cut a straight strip of fabric 1-3/4" long and 3/4" wide.
2. Fold the strip in half lengthwise, right sides together.
3. Stitch 1/4" from the fold.
4. Turn strip right side out and press with seam along one edge.
5. Turn in raw edges at the ends and slip stitch.
