Without building any walls.

I've thought about painting one part one color and the other part another color, but how do I separate it? I don't want light blue and then a sudden change to light green or whatever... Or is there some way to add a small bar-like divider that isn't permanent? Or how can I paint two different colors without a sudden change...Any suggestions please!!

I have painted my living room/dining room a golden yellow color and painted ceiling and crown molding a shade lighter, kind of light yellow. The crown molding was not wood but white painted molding. I would like to antique the crown molding to break up what seems to me too much yellow. Although no one else seems to think it is too yellow. Can I mix the stain of my oak woodwork (golden oak stain) with either water or glaze and brush on molding then wipe off? What else can I do?

I have tried using a jigsaw with Bosch blade T101BR (supposedly optimal for PVC), but the pipe snaps off unevenly about halfway through the cut.

This is for an outdoor furniture project so I don't want any sharp edges on the pipes. Any tips for smooth cutting would be appreciated.

I remember doing this years ago as a child. Lately, I've been having trouble starting seeds indoors early in a potting kit. Can I start watermelon seeds in a wet napkin? Do I keep it constantly wet? Do I heat it with a light? Thanks in advance.

Found a dead mouse on kitchen floor this morning and I can't figure out how it died. TERRIFIED of them the last time I saw one in my old house I did'nt go back in the basement for 5 yrs. We have a cat but he was sleeping upstairs and could not have done it. We also have 3 dogs but there were no teeth marks and I dont know if one of them may have brought it in from outside lastnight but I think I would have seen it b4 going to bed because I was in the kitchen. Any ideas as to how it could have died and what is the best way to get rid of them( same scenario 2 days ago but bf did not tell me until now so I would not freak) and again this one was dead in the same spot with no visible signs as to what killed it. NEED HELP! I can't even tell you how scared I am.

crazy. Although I empty my bags or canister frequently, my vacuums only seem to last a few months. I just got a Dirt Devil about 2 months ago and its suction is just horrible now. Can anyone recommend a vacuum for under $500 that will last? Thank you.

OK, so do you remember the hobbit holes in Lord of the Rings? Houses like that (minus the round door) actually exist in the northern US. Being raised in Iowa, we didn't see them all the time, but they were plentiful enough in the early days of energy efficient housing. They were built into the side of a hill, or excavated to only open on one side, the rest was kind of buried in the ground. With an open plan, or a trailer-house layout, all the important rooms could have natural lighting from the front of the house. Add some well protected skylights in the back...and it isn't the dungeon you'd expect.

So anyway, I live in Texas now. One difference between the houses here, and the houses in Iowa, is there are NO basements here due to flooding. But that is digging into the ground, not piling it around.

So can you have a hobbit hole in Texas?

The fence in the back yard on the left side of the house (facing into the back yard and the East side) fell down. I want to do the right thing and so does my neighbor, but we cannot figure out whose fence it is. It is only that side, and the actual fence faces out to us, meaning the usual outside of the fence is facing our house and the crossbeams and the posts faces my neighbor.
