I have a basement apartment, It's an open finished space without a bedroom. It's too costly to put up a wall to create a bedroom. How do I create another room without putting up a wall? How do I separate this space?

I have a basement apartment and the "living room" is just a few feet away from the "bedroom. I dont have a wall that separates the two rooms, It's a finished open basement painted blue with wood trims and doors. How can I paint the walls with the illusion that the two are separated?

I have an outdoor shed that has a high pitched roof that will allow an upper floor to be added. The pitching starts at 10 feet. To lay a floor down, what size crossbars should I lay down left to right so that I can place plywood on top of this that will provide good stability for support. The floor will contain boxes and overflow items, but not heavy items such as machinary.

Are 2 X 4 beams heavy enough, and if so, how far apart should they be? I assume 3/4 inch plywood is acceptable as the floor on top of the plywood.

Thanks

But he says he grouts first to fill in some of the holes and dips in the tumbled marble and then seals it. Which is correct or is it a matter of personal preference?

I would really like to design my place based off an Italian/Tuscany/Greek/Mediterranean feel. I love rich warm, calming colors (ocean blues, deep reds, etc.) Are there any good websites that can offer suggestions, with visuals as well?

We have a 1997 double-wide trailer and I asked my parents could we paint my room for my christmas present. My dad said no. His reason was, he claims that you just can't paint over the walls. We have wall paper on it now and the walls are thin sheet rock. I was wondering if it can be done, and if anyone has done it will you tell me. I need as many answers as possible. Thanks.

I guess what I'm really trying to say is.. I need a good verbal kick-in-the-butt kind of motivational incentive or something to just get the rest of the decorations up and get the house finished before it gets any later. I feel as though I'm at a 'stall' and just can't seem to find a place to start,, I still have all the usual Christmas things to do like, baking, shopping, wrapping, but for some reason I feel as though I just don't have the Christmas Spirit right now. I know I will sometime before Christmas, but it's important to me to get caught up with all the preparations first, but just need some words of wisdom from all you highly-spirited A#1 organizers to tell me what I need to hear to just get started. Does anyone have the right words to say to get me 'mentally going' ???

Hi! Thank you in advance for taking time with me ...and Merry Christmas, too!

First of all, do you like wall-to-wall carpeting?
How often do you have it cleaned.... I guess that would depend upon where you live... but do you have a service come in and clean it for you?

Second, do you prefer wool or is a synthetic or a blend acceptable ?...Which is more comfortable on bare feet, especially in the summer ( when I do go barefoot indoors ) ?

Is sisal matting hard on bare feet? It comes in such nice colors ... I am tempted...


Have you ever had a carpet or a braided rug in the kitchen?
