I am ordering wall paper decals, but instead of using the prepasted side and putting them on a white dresser i just sanded and repainted, I was wondering if there was anywhere I could order/buy the material for latex decal stickers? So I could put the wall paper decal on the sticker, and stick it to the dresser instead of having a mess when I am ready to take them off?

I just bought a new sponge last week and it smells funky already. I didn't leave it in water or anything (it was on the back of my sink). I'm sick of having to buy new sponges all the time. Any ideas on how to clean it?

The two fluorescent bulbs in my kitchen quit working. I bought new ones, they worked a few days, and then they stopped working. By stop working, I mean they turn on but flicker and are very dim. I bought a starter to discover my lights don't use a starter, they use this thing I have never heard of called a ballast. So, I bought a ballast and some wire connectors to connect it. I bought new bulbs to be on the safe side, and they worked great for a few days, and now are doing the same thing again. Does anyone know anything else I can try?

It's about 90 degrees in my house, and I don't have AC because I live in an area that doesn't normally need it. I have a north-facing window, a ceiling fan, and two floor fans -- any suggestions on the best way to circulate air and cool off the room?

I have a wasp nest that keeps growing in size. It's on the side of the house at the top of the awning, so it's not reachable unless you have a really tall ladder. Is there anything I can do?? I HATE wasps!! ewwwww!!!

I have a dark blue cotton T-shirt that I brushed up against Tilex Mold and Mildew cleaner, and it bleached my shirt. The bleached part looked dusty at first (I was cleaning the house) until I looked at it closer and realized it was bleached. I didn't even think about the fact that Mold and Mildew cleaner had bleach in it!

Anyway, is there anything I can do to make the shirt presentable again? I thought of bleaching the entire shirt in the wash, to fade it all into one color, but I didn't want it to end up splotchy. Or is there something that can remove bleach stains?

I want to protect the windows before they go in, and I don't mind a little tint in the stain.

I'm wanting to construct a large see through water tank. The shape has to be exact, so I guess I've got to cast it. Thick plexiglass is what I had in mind, but that seems to be to complicated for my garage. What is the best process/materials to make it? (approx. 8ft diameter by 5ft. tall)

Also I was considering using the pavers in 2 strips either side of the driveway and filling the middle with gravel - will this comprimise the strength?
