Minus the fact that they might (will) steal from me . . I would imagine that they would be great at it...

On DIY I learned how to prepare styrofoam for making ornamental type castings to go on walls, etc. You start with the styrofoam shape of the intended peice. Apply a mesh over the entire styrofoam. Then apply a primer base, colored to your liking. The primer will adhere to the mesh. Sand can be added to primer for texture. Let dry then place on you location. But I need a piece about 6 feet by one foot, 2 inches thick. Also need a ring cirlce made of styrofoam.

Flower shows have themed gardens which usually have fountains or ponds and props to provide whimsy.

I'm moving this weekend into the new apartment that my fiance and I have gotten. We're looking for a good list of the "must haves" to keep onhand while you're moving. This is what we've come up with so far:

Toilet Paper
paper towels
cheap foods (ramen noodles, spaghetti, etc)
basic pots and pans
tissue
cleaning supplies
trash bags
plastic ware (silverware, plates, etc.)
Towels
soaps (hand, body, and dish)
sponges - for dishes
washcloths
small lamps with extra lightbulbs (for doing work at night!)
personal toiletries (shampoos, toothbrush, toothpaste, etc.
Money for pizzas! ;-)



......that's all we've come up with at first. Did we cover everything?

Sorry to ask, but it's been so long since I've moved last and I'm afraid I'll forget something!

Can I reuse it after I clean it?Do I need to charge my sea salt like I do with my other crystals?It would make sense.I have used a smudge stick of smoldering sage but the energy still feels dirty.Obviously the running water route is out.I was thinking of putting the salt in cheeseloth over the smudge stick so the smoke would permeate more.Or should I just get more salt?Has anyone tried sprinkling the floor of a room with sea salt to clear the negativity , and then vacuming it up?

I'll be using bleach for the siding of the house. If I ask at Home Depot or Lowe's they will just try to sell me something. Wasn't sure if the bleach would harm the wood.
