Our new house plans call for 8 columns but we're out of money. Composite columns run from $150-$400 each and more. Thought we could make some out of 6' plastic pipe. Any suggestions would be appreciated.

I recently cut down a tree in my front yard. Since that time, I get these very tall and fast growing weeds. They look something like a fern or black locust leaf. The stalks are very hard. I can mow them down, but they keep coming back. They get pretty tall. Lots of little leaves very close together.

I've looked at many colors and I'm not sure what color is best. I thought browns, reds, coppers, golds, etc. My kitchen has this rusty orange color on the walls, a neutral floor, black marble countertops with bits of tan and orangy red. Any suggestions???

My furniture is a turquoise color and had bought red,green and blue. I have ran out of ideas to what to do with this room. I was gonna do red,white and blue but not anywmore.

I don't want my wall just to be one color either. Thats too plain for me.
My sheets look like this:http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f59/r2d2tppd2/sheets.jpg
My comforter is purple wth squares and circles.

How do I make my walls look as modern as my sheets and comforter? Or what else should I do?

My other room is jungle themed.

just dumped a few bags of organic seedling soil onto an existing garden bed that had mulch on top (about a year old). that the mulch was not organic and at worst that it could have been dyed to make it look really black. the seedlings should have a soil depth of 15 cms but i reckon that the tipped out bags are about 10 cms high after i spread them out a bit. two weeks later they're growing ok . but now i'm worried about how they'll turn out and if they do will they be safe to eat?? i've got tomatoes, onions and rainbow chard. help please.

When having a home inspection of the condo that we are in the process of purchasing, we found that the dryer was vented directly into the basement ( where the dryer is located ). There are no windows and we do not yet know if we would be allowed to cut a hole to vent to the outside of our unit. The home inspector suggested that we maybe able to vent to the sewer line, which is located next to the dryer. He said that the pipe was large enough. Would anyone have any information on how this works, what conditions make it possible to do, and what any drawbacks maybe? Thank you
