I have a few pairs of dark jeans. I love the color so I dry clean them to keep the shade, however the dark blue color gets over everything- even my skin! Is there any type of solution or spray I can get to prevent this from happening?

Our living room is so gloomy and seems so small when it's actually pretty big. We thought we might would paint it, but it's paneling. Would it still look ok if we painted it? And if it did then what color should we paint it to make it seem brighter and bigger?

I've had my electric kettle for over 8 years and it's still going strong, whereas my friend is on her 4th kettle in 12 months.
Not bad for a £3.99 price!

I love having flowers in the house, but they seem to only last for a couple days. What can I do or add to the water to keep them from wilting so quickly?

My yard is a mess with a clump of four overgrown trees and brush below them. If I have the trees topped at 6 feet and a deck style treehouse, and clear the brush putting a thick layer of sand below would that be ok. Cannot afford to have trees cleared and levelled

alright, so today was feeling like a handy man, but ill keep it short. my mom wanted me to replace the dining room light fixture on the ceiling, so i turned on the light and went pulling and replacing fuses till I found the right one. once i did that, i took down the fixture and my mom said to hold off and wait because she changed her mind about using the fixture she got and was going to get another one tomorrow. so i taped off each wire and put a wire nut on each seperately. she asked if i would do the same for the light above the sink, and that circuit was already off too, i figured it was the same fuse then. so i took it down and taped the wires. i replaced the fuse and the circuit for the light above the sink wasnt back on because its connected to an ground fault outlet too and the light wasnt on. i fooled around with a couple fuses and that came on. NOW, the 2 spotlights above the kitchen bar and light above the stove(fan) dont turn on. what are my possibilities here? im not sure what im missing. my fuses may not be labeled correctly since it was my dad who labeled them(the prior owner was chinese and the fuses were labeled in chinese) but he labeled one as stove fan/light. when i pull this, the outlet goes off and so do the other 3 spotlights in the kitchen. now what am i looking at here? i really dont know what it could be...could it be by removing the lights the circuit for the 2 lights and stove light arent closed anymore? i dont see how this could be though since both the sink light and dining room light were on switches, and when turned off the other lights didnt have issues. any help appreciated!

My old fridge didn't have this feature so I need to have an ice and water supply line installed. The fridge is right next to the sink so they'll just have to run a line from the sink, drill one hole in the side of the wood cabinet and hook it up to the fridge/freezer. Any idea how much this would be?
Thanks
