To cover or not?
Jam 4:17 KJV - Therefore to him that knoweth to do good, and doeth [it] not, to him it is sin. This is why I believe I should wear a head covering. I believe God is pleased with it. It is my outward symbol that I want to be obedient to the LORD and and submissive to His will. Some people in my family are confused about this, but I would like you to know that I am still saved by the Grace of God whether or not I wear the covering; I will still go to Heaven. I do not believe you can lose you salvation for any reason as long as you are truly saved.
Homemade practical things
I recently made homemade deodorant and it works well for me. I got the recipe from http://www.tammtysrecipes.com/. I also made laundry soap from her recipe and have used it on several loads of laundry and it works like regular detergent from the store. You just have to shake it before each use. I use 1/4 cup per load. I plan on making lip balm/chapstick also. I just need to find somewhere to buy some essential oil for flavoring.
I am also going to try her recipe for toothpaste. I'll update soon on how everything turns out.

New Covering
I decided to design a crochet a bun covering a little while back. Heres the pattern, I hope some one can use the pattern. If you don't want to use it as a covering , you can wear it as a hair net under another covering.
Crochet bun covering
I use cotton yarn and H hook.
Rnd1: Ch4. slip st to join and make ring. Ch2. 12DC in ring. join. Rnd2: CH2. 1dc in first st, 2dc in nxt. [1DC in nxt, 2DC in nxt]. repeat from [ to ]. Rnd3-5: Ch2. 2DC in first 1DC in nxt. [2Dc in nxt, 1DC in nxt] repeat. around. join. Rnd 6: CH2. 1DC in first , 2DC in nxt. [1DC in nxt, 2DC in nxt] repeat around. join. Cut a 12 inch long piece of elastic 1/8" wide and weave it through the last row. Tie elastic and hide ends. Stretch over bun and secure with bobby pins if you did not use a hairnet over bun first.
You can make the covering any size you need just measure the distance over your bun (mine is 7 1/4" because I make a flat bun). Then make a flat circle about about 1" in diameter bigger than what you measured. My flat circle was about 8 1/4" in diameter. Weave in elastic a little shorter than the distance around your bun, because it stretches. Use a safety pin to keep the one end from slipping while your weaving the other end. Then tie it and hide the ends.
