My boyfriend wears button-up shirts all the time and everytime we do laundry he loses a button on one of his shirts. I usually just sew a new one on but I feel this is going to get old after a while. I was hoping for a solution to prevent the buttons from coming off in the first place. Anyone have any suggestions? Thanks.

I am a 21 year old girl... so if you answer this... please understand that I have no tools except a hammer and some nails. And I have no experience with this... so I may not understand the carpenter "lingo" lol. I have a small bar area where I want to hang some stuff... the stuff isnt too heavy. The space is only about 1 foot wide... I dont even know if there would be any studs in it. Would it be ok to hang my stuff without finding the studs... since it isnt that heavy?

But if I do need to find the studs... then I need my original question answered... how do i find studs in the walls???

thanks for your help!

Got it free so can't complain there. Replaced Battery and rear tires. Have lubricated all necessary locations. The blades are finally turning, but the mower won't "GO". When put into gear it just sits there. No reverse, forward, anything. Any suggestions? Can't find a manual for it. Maybe new belt? Please, desperate here... Thanks

I currently have four recessed ceiling cans or "hi hats" with GE Reveal R20's (floodlights) in there and while the quality of light is good, it looks like the bulb is sitting a little too deep giving each one a spotlight affect. Should I use physically larger bulbs like an R30, R20's with a higher wattage, or can I adjust the height of the existing lights within the fixture?

I just moved into a house with a ugly dirt hill going straight up on the side of it. I worry about erosion with large trees near the edge (don't need a caved in roof) and a ugly yard. With alot of kudzu growing wild around here, thought I could get some started to cover the ugliness and help the erosion. Do I just cut some of it off and stick it in the ground, or do I need to dig it up at the root? Do I start it at the bottom of the hill or at the top?

My new home has a kitchen with glazed ceramic tiles covering most of the walls.

The colour is basically honey brown, but there's a hideous purple border (in the same tile size & shape) running horizontally & vertically all over the place - I'd say that 20% of the tiles are this colour.

I want to reduce all the tiles to one (new) colour.

Two guys (both pros) have this to say:

GUY 1: Cheapest solution (and least noisy/disruptive) is to use a 'glass enamel paint' over the tiles. I went online and found several manufacturers of this stuff.

GUY 2: Scoffed at this and said there was no other way than retiling the whole kitchen.

Guy 1 is adamant that it can be done, and the job will last if enough care is taken in preparing the surface.

Is he right?

Has anyone tried this 're-enamelling' technique, and were the results OK?

Thanks!
