Home & Garden - 4 July 2007

Does anyone know where i can purchase or order online acrylic or plastic boxes or containers. I'm a party planner and i'm looking to use them for centerpieces. I need all shapes and sizes, with lids and with out. I've check the local craft stores in my area ( York, PA) and can't seem to find any. Thanks for all your help!

I have a very stubborn stain that wont come off. Its on my white cotton jacket. It’s a brown stain. I think I might be poop because I was holding a baby, and his diaper leaked. It’s a little stain, but bugs me so much. I tried many things.

- bleach
- tide-to-go
- Clorox bleach pen
- stain sticks
- surf

apparently its coming off, and I have to wear it soon. ( my new one is in the mail its going to take a while coming) If you have any suggestions about how I can get the stain out please let me know. Thank you.

I am buying things for my dorm, and I think I just about have it all, but I know I am forgetting some things. Any items you found helpful to have in your dorm, or anything you think would be cute to add to mine? Thanks for your help.

Okay, there is a metal ring with cardboard strips and each strip will have several hues of a similar color. I want to buy one to look at colors but I cannot figure out what they are called. Does each paint supplier have a different one of these? Is there anywhere on the internet where I can order one?

Anyone want to take a stab at this one? I pulled it out of my lilac hedge. It gets to about 8 feet tall, then falls and roots on the ground along its branches, and sends up new shoots from there. It likes the shade.

My friend's yard supports plants and flowers very well. However, when planted near the well-head they die off like nothing.

There is a 4ft wall that runs along the back of all the gardens in my street. There is also a fence that starts where the wall stops but it's a few inches away from the wall so it makes the wall perfect for walking right along the back of all the rear gardens. I have a few window boxes along my part of the wall with climbing plants to go up the fence (to give us a bit of privacy from the two blocks of flats behind it) but for the past few nights a couple of boys (around 10-11) have been getting in through someone elses garden up the street and walking right along the wall through all the gardens and take great pleasure in knocking my pots down along the way.
I have tried to make the garden lovely for my family-especially the kids to enjoy and also have a summer house and a couple of sheds with expensive garden equipment and the kids bikes, a big slide and swings etc. I'm worried the little brats will do more than just knock my plants over-although this alone is driving me nuts! thanks

The private owner of neighboring upstairs apartment/condo isn't able to be contacted. The empty unit's air conditioner has been running for almost a month non-stop and the hose running from the unit has a 1/4 inch cover of ice around it. What threat level or potential dangers are there here?

Most of the articles that I have read you need to have a special push reel mower for your putting green, So I was wondering if a cut height of 1/2 in. with a normal push reel mower would be able to cut down to a 3/16 or 1/4 if I was just to mow more frequently?

i have a heavily wooded area in my backyard with countless trees and i want to make a path sort of like a nature trail. in the winter i went back there to see what was there and i found streams and a little water fall. i want to know how i would go on about doing this (making the trail) or if there are people to hire, because there will probably be some trees that need to be taken down.

This will be a small home project with an existing slab of marble. It was finished on one side but the finish has dulled with age and neglect. We are on a tight budget so would like to use simple hand or home power tools. We do not want to buy or rent heavy equipment for this project. Any suggestions are welcome!

I am interested in building a garage on my property. My property is on a slope. How should I go about backfilling the area to make it level enough to put a monolythic slab onto for a garage?
