Home & Garden - 20 August 2007

Desperately trying to come up with an INEXPENSIVE way to divide the room without just buying room dividers or building a half wall. Any clever ideas?? The room is long and narrow and currently is a living room/kitchenette. Thanks for any ideas!

The carpet in my bedroom is burgendy, and id like to paint my walls but im not sure what color because my bedding is baby blue with red and pink roses on it. I'm thinking of painting the walls light blue but i think that might match to much. What do you think would be a good color?

There was a sower that sowed seeds. Some landed on the way side and the fowls come to destroy it. Then some landed on the stones it sprouted up quick, but it had no good roots and as soon as the suns heat rose they weithred. Then some landed in a bush of thorns and as soon as they grew the thorns choked them. Then some seed landed on the good soil and increased thirty sixty and some seventy fold.

I have looked everywhere and it was not one made by campbell and hausfeld and husky's web site has no contact information so I was wondering if anyone else has had this problem and was able to find parts.

I have a very old Elna super, I’ve used it for a few years and I’ve never had a manual. I re wound my bobbin like I’ve done for years, I put the new bobbin on the bobbin winder on top of the machine, push it to the right and loosen the wheel on the side of the machine to stop the needle from going up and down as I wind the bobbin, when I was done I put the bobbin winder back to the left but I couldn’t re tighten the wheel. If I step on the petal the outer wheel spins but the only way to move the needle it to manually turn the inner wheel, I’ve hade this problem before but I cant remember how to fix it, please help!

into my house. Most of the other townhouses around me have no hedges. Why would it just be my house that would get water since the terrain and slope of land is basically the same for all of us. Is it really a consideration?

I don't need anything in-depth, like high gloss or anything. Just if anyone has an estimate of how much it will cost. I want to know before I drive all the way over there, if you know what I mean.

It's a small bathroom that gets used often... by boys, but it also gets cleaned often with Lysol wipes or bleach water. There are no windows but there is a fan/vent. During the humid season I could wipe the seat down daily and there is still mold. Yuck! Is there a cleaner or spray that will help this problem?

My hubby and I found, well, frankly I don't know exactly what it is. But I want to make a small table out of it, so my question is, where can I go to find a round pane of glass approximately 18 inches in diameter? Is there somewhere I can go where they will cut it for me? It doesn't have to be glass, plexiglass would work.

Also, any idea how much something like that costs??

I appreciate the help!!!
