hi.

now the temperature has dropped, I was looking for my sheepskin
slippers. I finally found them under my bed. I have left them there
the whole spring and summer.

when i put my feet into them, they don't feel soft and furry like
before. it feels there's sand in them. except i have never
taken them to the beach of course! (who would?!)

as i closely examined the inside of my slippers,
it seems the lining of the slippers has ben "eaten"
there's also seems to be powdery granules inside the slippers
(which feels like sand granules).

is anyone familiar with this "problem"?
Who's eating my sheep skin slippers?

and how do i prevent or debug my apartment?

thank you

My mother says they came from detergent boxes, maybe Duz, but I'm not certain. They are sort of shiny, medium green glazed with undefind white rims around the edges of each piece. Actually they look more like pottery. Does anyone have info on these items i.e. manufacturer, value, etc.?

I just moved into an older home and the bathtub, sink, and potty are lilac from the 50's lol. Any creative ideas? I cannot afford to rip them out just yet, so thought someone might have a good idea for decorating. I'm not the golden girl's type, so i'm not into the doll-house type look, I think more of a contemporary taste. Please give your opinions. Thanks :)

I want to know who spent what when they redid their floors in carpet and do you think it was worth that price? I'm redoing my floors but don't know where to go. Just wanting testimonials I guess, or pointers...whatever.

I am redoing my bedroom pretty soon, new carpeting, new wall colors, new furniture and what-not, etc. I don't know the colors I want though. At first I was thinking along the lines of a dark green (emerald) carpet color with some kind of dark colored wall. Then I was thinking more and I think I want to have a room that has a deep red kind of... Red Wine type color. I don't know what color would work with the red though or where I want to incorporate the red (in the walls? the floor? the furniture?).

For a color to go along with it, I usually want something a little darker. Nothing really light as I find that I can relax better in darker rooms. There's just something about light colored rooms that don't 'click' with me.

If anyone has any ideas, that would be great. If you have any alternate ideas aside from the Red Wine type color, feel free to add those too.

Thanks in advance for anyone's input.

I appreciate it.

I'm new at drywall installation. I was wondering which to sheetrock first. The ceiling or the walls. Does the ceiling then rest on the walls(sheetrock)?

Thanks.

I desperately need my stairs wallpapered, but all quotes so far are way too high and i can't do it myself as the ceiling is quite high.

I was given the serving dishes years ago for a wedding present, but have been unable to find place settings to match. Many of the items are boxed. the bottom of the box says Made in China... Himark Enterprises, Inc. NY 11787. I Have been looking for years and the address is no longer valid it seems.
