Decorating & Remodeling - July 2006

Good sets run in the 1000s. Just a table umbrella and like 4 chairs. You can get a whole bedroom set for that. I notice home depot sells sets from Hampton Bay that run in the 3 to 400s. I know Hampton Bay makes really crappy fans I don't expect them to make good patio furniture. What should I look for in a patio set.

I was thinking of starting off painting my entire room a very light shade of brown. I want to then paint a large rectangle of the darker shade of brown in the center of one wall. The wall its self is about 15' long and about 10 feet tall. The rectangle would be about 6'8" long by about 3'2" tall. I then want to dress the window with a medium shade and accent the room with contemerary art work and decore. i would also want to hang window drapes in a darker brown, the same as the large rectangle i want to paint. I was also thinking of sponging the walls to give them a little texture. Please let me know if you feel that this would look good or if it would look bad. Thank you.

I've tried several different types of tape, but the paint always seeps under the tape even if I make sure the tape is down tight.

This is to give privacy to a 91 year old that will be living in my living room. We are not looking for total privacy, but something that will let light in but you cannot see through.

I got one of their catalogs and it was like gag me with a spoon! All that stuff looks so cheap and flimsy. I'm not into modern looking furniture anyways, the minimalist thing doesn't cut it, but why is that store so popular?
