This scratch was an accident and i need to find a way of minimising the damage, disguising it and stopping it from spreading when being sat on.
Many thanks!

What is your opinion off it? Is it worth the $1500.00? I had a demonstration yesterday and I am undecided. Too many attachments to switch around, it doesn't get right up to the edge, you have to switch attachments are just a couple of things I don't like. Any opinions and is the cost really worth it?

The seat is showing signs of aging due to weather exposure, want to treat it but still keep the grip that the raw wood has so the kids do not slide right off it. Also considering that the covering must not stain clothes, so cresote might be out, and varnish to slippery. T.I.A.

i have one of those indoor viney plants that can grow multiple feet (dont know the name or breed, sorry). after transporting it recently in very cold weather, many of the leaves have died or are "singed" the plant will survive, but i do i trim these dead and dying areas off, or let them completely die and clean as necessary?

And please don't tell me not to ruin the hardwood, they are TOTALLY fargone and I had estimates to have them redone and it is SO not worth it.

I intend to do a full reno in a few years, including knocking out walls and an addition, so I dont want to spend a ton of $$ on a temporary thing, but the floors as they are are driving me CRAZY.

They are in terrible shape, not to mention it is a two bedroom 492 sq feet and EVERY room has different color and style flooring. Doesn't allow for much flow.

Guys, for about a year now I've been using warm water for my cold water quiksilver tshirts. I feel like ****, knowing that it should've been on cold. Does it matter too much though? Because the cold water turns into warm water as the washer spins anyway, so...

I have been reading lots of forums on DavesGarden, and other related gardening sites and suprised to see this new company Holland Bulb Farms is being so well received. Has anyone ordered from them as I have read so much about here Top Size Bulbs imported directly from Holland. If you have ordered from them and your expierence is good, please let me know.

I'm trying to decide if a designer could help me better "visualize" how I want it to look prior to going to the Architect or am I just doubling up on what an Architect does anyway?

I have a Wesley Allen complete bed in queen size that I've assembled but I haven't put a box spring or mattress on it yet because I don't know what to do with the washers that came with the rest of the parts. It's an iron bed with no wood anywhere in the design. Where should I use the washers? I'm looking for anyone who has assembled a Wesley Allen complete bed or who works for Wesley Allen or any store that has sold Wesley Allen and who might be able to provide some insight as to how to use these washers. Thanks.

We have 15 old neglected apple trees, bearing horrible fruit.
What would we need to do to (besides pruning) to get them to bear well again?
