If you have an open floor plan and want to paint the kitchen and living room different colors, how do you transition from one color to the other? Is there just a line on the wall where one color stops and the other begins?

I am interested in purchasing a house built in 1914. I know the house and I am pretty sure the electrical has not had any work on it since it was installed. A ballpark figure would help us decide to go to the next step in decision making...money.

Hello!!

I have a big problem (kind of!)

I'm in the process of painting my bathroom (a light green)

anddddd....I'm not the best painter in the world.

I kind of did a really sloppy job, and got paint all over the woodwork (trim) and all over the vinyl floors, and countertops.

Can someone tell me how to get it off of these surfaces?

THe stains are a couple of days old. I've been trying to get them out forever.

Please name some products in which I can use..and where I can purchase these.

Thanks so much!!!!

My husband and I just bought a 120 year old house. We put up the ucky carpet and there are hardwoods all over the house, but they need refinishing. My husband wants to put down carpet because he said the house will be too cold and hard to heat with the wood floors. I want to refinish them because (1) they would be beautiful and (2) much easier to keep clean with kids and 2 small pets. and ive heard they cut down alot on spiders in the house. We would have to refinish them ourselves, we cant afford to hire it done, but I think it would be alot cheaper than carpeting the whole house and not much difference on the gas bill. what do you all think? thanks in advance!@
