Decorating & Remodeling - July 2006

we found a large area rug that we'd like to use in our bedroom, but it takes up more than half the room. is it possible to cut it to fit into the corner under our bed so it looks like it was made for that?

Ok i get the whole 'they're cut 2x4 but shrink during the pressure treatment', but why wouldn't they just be cut 2.5x4.5 so they shrink to 2x4? wouldn't that make more sense?

We just bought a 1951 ranch house and the kitchen needs upgrading, but I want to keep the original 1950's theme. I'm looking for websites, magazines or books with ideas on cabinets, countertops, flooring, appliances, furniture, window treatments and accessories from this era.

My father is a very heavy smoker so my mom needs to wash the walls before the place gets painted. It needs to be done tomorrow but at 35°C heat I'm not too keen on ammonia in the house, is there another way? The walls are very very brown and have not been washed in about five years.

My dad painted some shelves in my bedroom, creamy magnolia.
I lifted something off the shelf the otherday and a fine, white dust powder had settled there. I didnt really think muck of it at the time, just wiped it down and left it. A few days later I did the same thing and the powder was back......Does anyone know what this is? Is is poisonous or toxic???. It smell funny too?
Any advice as to what is is would be great.

I hear that you can buy furniture much cheaper by getting it from North Carolina. My understanding is the delivery is no more than what I would normally pay in sales tax. But there are so many North Carolina furniture stores on the internet - anyone know of reputable ones and whether this is worth the trouble or not?
