I found 1 site, but there is a $50.00 minimum. Can't find any good search hits for monogram letters.

I'll try and keep this short...I recently received my preserved wedding bouquet and I am thinking that these are not my roses that I sent to them. My bouquet didn't have very many greens in it. This bouquet has leaves around the edge of the bouquet that look like grocery store rose leaves? (and a few within the bouquet)
I hate to think that I have been bamboozeled, but if anyone can point out a website that can help me identify roses, it would be a great start! Thanks!

water runs thru the unit and out the bottom flow valve whenever the unit runs. Is this normal? It seems like a waste of water.

Im remodeling a house and theres some nasty carpet that Im removing and finshing the hardwood floors, wall paper that Im removing and painting the walls and old wood trim that needs refinished (Im not painting the trim, Im staining or just protecting) my question is should I finish the floors before I decide on the exact color of the walls and what shade to make the trim? to me it makes more sense to start at the top and work my way down so if theres any mishaps on the floor I will not have to redo the floor! thank you so much!

at my house, my garage door is opened and closed by electricity. and im assuming that since the garage door is pretty heavy it must take some power to get it opened and or closed.

so does it use a lot of electricity? im not trying to waste money

Our grandmothers used these to protect their upholstery (sofas and chairs) from the oils men used in their hair. They were called something I remember they were called something like "adamacasser." What's the real name/spelling?

I usually do landscaping, but this customer friend want's me to paint her basement live-in room and I don't know what to tell her for a price...I've done tons of painting before, so I have the experience to do it, I'm just not good at pricing. The room is currently dark green, and she needs me to paint it close to somewhat like a dark peach kind of color. How many coats do you think it will take, and how many gallons, there are three doors, one of which is loovered, and 2 small windows to trim. Any help would be apreciated...

We have a tree that is partially on our property this is 3/4ths dead according to a licensed arborist. It is a maple and it gigantic and loses huge branches which hit our house everytime there is a wind storm (which is quite often where I live.) We've tried to deal with this nicely for three years with our neighbor, but she refuses to let us cut this thing down even though it's dead. We've went to the city of Covington (Washington) and they can't help us because they don't have any laws written up about this kind of issue. We went to the county, and they said we had to follow city rules (that helps a lot.) Does anyone know whether we have a right to remove this tree or parts of the tree since we do in fact own part of it? Our neighbor is the arbour day president and really loves her trees, but it's a little much when she loves a dead tree over human lives. She doesn't even live on the property behind us and rents it out. Anyone's help would be greatly appreciated.

I have had to return a number of products such as faucets, lamps, mirrors, etc. during a remodeling project, because of missing pieces, damage, or poor design.
