I don't really care about the brand name. I just want to know if it can be used.

OK my mam has this gold half sovereign ring and it fits me but not her. But she reckons that it's not a man. Is this true or can a man wear a sovereign ring?

I had few photos attached to mirror for years and now that I took them of there is still some glue from the scotch tape left over. I tried with alcohol – it didn’t work.

I recently found a recipe for homemade air freshener that required simmering a pot on the stove with a solution of one part vinegar and two parts water with a teaspoon of whole cloves. I thought that the vinegar solution might remove scent molecules from the air or break them down, and wondered what the cloves would add, aside from scent.

Having tried it, I'd be inclined to weaken the vinegar solution. Also, I didn't enjoy the clove fragrance much.

Simmering acetic acid tends to be hard on the eyes and lungs, I suspect ...

My bedroom is horrible. I have dusty dark blue carpet, white walls (except for one grey/white wood grain paneling wall) and this horrible air condintioner box that sticks out about a foot and is about a foot and a half wide. It's brown and has this gaudy cord that hangs down and plugs into the wall. Someone suggested a beach theme given the colors that I already have. It's an apartment so I can't paint. Does anyone have any good beach theme ideas that are inexpensive? I don't want it to be too tacky...i'm going for more of a relaxing getaway type thing.

I made the mistake of washing my navy polarfleece jacket with a white cotton throw. Now I have white fuzz all over it. The sticky roller thing I have barely gets rid of any of it. Any recommendations?

I just don't have time to be creative anymore. I want to decorate my bedroom, so that it actually feels like a bedroom and not just a room where I sleep. I have a very stressfull job, so I would like for it to be a nice relaxing room to get away in. It's a pretty blank slate so far. My carpet is a dusty dark blue, my walls are mostly white, one horrible side is grey and white wood grain paneling, though:) oh yeah. So, any ideas would be great....and details, color schemes, storage, organization ideas, etc....pictures/links would be very helpful. Oh, two other things. There is only one window, it's pretty tall...floor to ceiling, normal height ceilngs though. And here's the best part-I have an airconditioner, that's like...a window one..but it's jsut sticking out of my wall. it's lovely. I would love to safely cover this up somehow. Has anyone else ever dealt with one of these before? It's brown and about the size of a normal window air conditioner.

My mamaw bought me a bed last year. It's a very dark wood. I'm not good with wood colors, so...I wouldn't know what it is. It's not cherry:) However, it clashes with the wooden doors on my closet. They're a lighter, brighter, more golden color. I have to keep the bed...she was so happy to buy it for me, but I'm thinking about painting or staining it. Is there an easy way to do this? Should I just paint it white so it matches everything and when I move I won't have to worry about it? Also, I recently left my high paying job to ...not work ...and go to school...so money is definitely an issue.

I have a very small bathroom. It has no windows. There is only a sink (with no cabinet or storage underneath, just open and ugly), a toilet and a bathtub/shower. I can't really put anything perm. on the walls. The walls are bright white and their is only really one wall about 4 feet wide that could be decorated since the other walls are taken up by the door, bath, toilet and sink. The floor is grey and white, everything else is just white. I have a small medicine cabinet with the little sliding mirror doors. The door is normal, boring, ugly brown wood. Please help:( Color schemes, storage, etc....
