I own an online bath & body business and am in desperate need of redesigning my small home office space. Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. The walls are currently painted antique white but I would love to add some color to the walls.

The Back Story:
The town home was probably built in the late 70's and decorated like it. The original wallpaper in the half bath was hideous so my finacee tried to remove it only to find an even WORSE wallpaper underneath. It's now gone from "swinger suave" to looking like something my great grandmother would have picked out. Now we've only been able to remove a portion of THAT wallpaper because I think it's become molecularly bonded to the sheet rock over all these years.

The Goal:
Cover up the walls in the half bath with, pretty much ANYTHING at this point.

The Problem:
I feel I lack the skill to wallpaper over other wallpaper successfully and we don't have the budget to get some contractors in to do this for us. So I want to find some easy and inexpensive decorating ideas that will keep our guest from thinking that faded 3-foot sunflowers was part of some decorating motif.

Thanks.

The snow is so high the furnace went out. Can extend it and what would I need to do that? Would it cause carbon monoxide poisoning?

i have recentley contacted the council about a large tree on the road out side my house, there answer indicate that the problem stems from my small cherry blossom tree out side my house(which we are about to have taken down) and not theirs on the road side. They tell me that even though their tree is as tall as my house, its the the roots from the cherry blossom that are causeing the very large roots that are pulling up and damaging my drains and sewerage pipes. My insurance has now dealt with this problem but refuse to renew my insurance, they also tell me after inspection the roots are coming from the tree on the road, can anyone help, are cherry blossom roots bigger or not, or who can i go to for independent advise. Thanks.

Let your imagination soar. A bathroom with a couch, fireplace and giant screen tv? A den with a pool and kitchenette and rockin' stereo system? An outdoor room with a clear roof????
Have fun...

I've been working on my room for a while. In Sept. My Dad and I went in and painted my room. Since then, We've been buying things to go with the new theme. Now that it's January, my parents are wondering why I'm not sleeping in my room. And to be honest, my room is so much of a STY that I can't get to my bed, none the less open my door. I need some serious help to get my room clean. I have horrible cleaning skills, and I need assistance. I'm too embarrassed to have my parents see my room, that I have to lie to get them off the topic! So how can I get my room clean?? Please help me...
