I have tried washing them down but that didnt work, dry brushing is working but it is really hard work and I can only reach a certain area and can only do a few minutes at a time due to arthritis.
Is there another way to do it?

These neat little gadgets were made of very thin pressed plastic...hard, like football helmets are made from. They were a series of holes through which fabric was pulled, creating poofed loops which, when running the full length of them, could make really pretty window toppers, valances, and the base for lovely multi-length curtains. They attached to the tops of the windows with simple cup hooks. Also availabe were a couple of loops (one small, and one of a larger size) which were used to make designer decorator/throw pillows, and the extra vertical fluffs for Bishop sleeve curtains. They were REALLY great!!! I'd really LOVE to be able to acquire some more. Does ANYONE know anything about them and/or their availability at this time?

I have some old chairs with limited sentimental value, we'd like to keep as much of the original as we can, but we need new seats for them. The frames without seats backs just have open holes, and if we replace those we'll have to replace the armrests as well.

I bought enough of this cheap laminate flooring from Lowe's to cover my small room. On the inside of the box it shows how shorter boards are placed next to longer boards to give a stepping effect. Is this required for this type of laminate or can they just be placed side by side? Does stepping give the floor added strength? Thanks.
