Hints From Heloise

Dear Heloise: Here’s a hint for those who buy artwork at art fairs. After framing my new picture or print, I tape a copy of the artist’s business card to the back of the frame. That way if I decide I want additional work from the artist, I know how to locate him or her. Mariposa L., San Diego

I’m sure other readers will really appreciate your artful hint. This is also a good suggestion in that years from now others will know something about the artist too. Heloise

Dear Heloise: When your infants outgrow their receiving blankets, sew the blankets together to make various sizes to wrap babies in after a bath, or to lie on at the beach or use as a picnic blanket. You could also make a tent using the clothesline (if you have one) or use as an after-the-pool wrap. Veronica McGrath, Old Bridge, N.J.
