Paradox of Thrift $81.25 High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles The paradox of thrift (or paradox of saving) is a paradox of economics, popularized by John Maynard Keynes, though it had been stated as early as 1714 in The Fable of the Bees, and similar sentiments date to antiquity. The paradox states that if everyone tries to save more money during times of recession, then aggregate demand will fall and will in turn lower total savings in the population because of the decrease in consumption and economic growth. The paradox is, narrowly speaking, that total savings may fall even when individual savings attempt to rise, and, broadly speaking, that increases in savings may be harmful to an economy. Both the narrow and broad claims are paradoxical within the assumption underlying the fallacy of composition, namely that what is true of the parts must be true of the whole. The narrow claim transparently contradicts this assumption, and the broad one does so by implication, because while individual thrift is generally averred to be good for the economy, the paradox of thrift holds that collective thrift may be bad for the economy.

Top Five Yarn Crafts (without Knitting or Crochet)
Not knowing how to knit or crochet does not mean you cannot use yarn. Even inexperienced crafters can use yarn to create stylish home accents or engage in fun activities with friends and family members. You can create a yarn wreath or make unique hollow yarn eggs. Kids will love these easy yarn crafts too. Here are top five easy yarn crafts for you to try today:
Hollow Yarn Eggs/Yarn Balls- Making yarn eggs is a really fun activity for kids and makes surprisingly cool decoration. Use spring colors to make yarn eggs at Easter. Hang some of these from a sturdy indoor plant or arranged branches in a vase. You can also arrange in a large bowl for a centerpiece.
- To make yarn eggs, you need yarn (or embroidery floss), balloons, newspaper, glue and a paintbrush. Mix the glue with equal parts water for a thinner adhesive. Blow up the balloon to around 6-8 inches and tie off (you can experiment with bigger and smaller size balloons for different yarn egg sizes). Secure a bit of yarn or thread around the balloon end to hang. Working over the newspaper, brush the glue all over the outside of the balloon. Wrap the yarn randomly around the balloon. Paint more glue on top of the yarn. Switch colors of yarn if you like and continue to brush glue over new wrapped yarn. You can wrap loosely but do not leave large gaps with balloon showing. Hang to dry overnight. Once dry, pop the balloon with a pin and gently pull it out through a gap in the yarn. Your yarn eggs are done!
Yarn Vase- Are you bored with a plain glass vase? Did you pick up a vase at the thrift store but don’t like the colors or design? Wrap leftover yarn around the vase to get a new look. If you don’t have a vase to wrap, use an oatmeal, Pringles or appropriate-sized container. Wrapped in yarn, no one will know!
- Double-stick tape might be the easiest adhesive for this craft, but you can alternatively paint a thin layer of glue all over the vase or use a spray adhesive. Start at the bottom and make sure to stack the rounds of yarn. Tuck in the end of the yarn under the first few rounds. For a modern look, add stripes of color or one thick strip at the top or bottom of the vase. Solid colors seem to work best for smaller vases. Tuck under the tail end of the yarn when finished wrapping the vase. You can then add embellishments such as a yarn bow, ribbon or use glue dots to add pretty buttons.
Yarn Pencil Holder- Wrap yarn around a clean tin can or glass jar with label removed in the same method as the yarn-wrapped vase idea above. Make sure that the layers of yarn are close together so that no gaps show through. This is a great idea to decorate your office space. Use masculine yarn for a Father’s Day gift.
Yarn Wreath- For an easy decoration, create a yarn wreath.
- The easiest way to make a yarn wreath is to purchase an inexpensive foam wreath, apply glue or other adhesive and wrap in colorful yarn. Self-striping yarn is especially well suited to this craft. Check out this Spring Wreath or this Yarn Wreath with Berries.
- For a flatter wreath, you can also use a cardboard circle, salvaged from a large box perhaps. With a 14-inch diameter circle wreath, you would want to cut a 12-inch diameter circle out of the middle. Then glue and wrap the yarn as you wish.
- You can also use a wire hanger bent into the shape of a circle for your wreath base. Make yarn pom-poms or bundles and secure to the wire base. Or for something even easier, just slip scrap balls of yarn in different sizes onto the wire hanger all the way around. Separate large balls of yarn into smaller balls and stagger around the wire base.
God’s Eye- A traditional craft from the Huichol Indians of Mexico, God’s Eyes are fun crafts for kids to make. You will only need two craft or popsicle sticks, glue, scissors and yarn in several colors. Glue the craft sticks together at the center to make a cross or plus sign. Take your first color of yarn and wrap it over and around one stick, then over and around the next stick and so on. Keep going around in a circle, adding layers of your yarn color. When you are satisfied with the size of your woven “eye,” switch colors. Simply cut the yarn off from the skein and tie a new color onto the old yarn with a tight knot. Keep wrapping. Change colors once or twice more and tie a knot to finish.
