I have deep red couches and a two yellow walls, they're actually a golden feux venetian plaster finish. Black bookcases and a black fire place. The original walls are khaki colored, and they were ok until i did the two golden walls, now they just look unfinished. What color can i paint them without taking away from the fire place or the venetian wall? Those are my main focus points.

I just bought a very quality bed and it is a one sided pillow top mattress. I sleep mostly in the middle at night. It is kinda sunk down in the middle. Is this normal?

I have seen web postings about painting laminate cabinets with a paint technology called "Diamond Hard." I know there are at least two manufacturers of this type of paint, one of which is "Majic". It is not available at Lowes, Home Depot or Ace Hardware and my web searches have not helped! I'd like to find a brick and mortar store that carries it versus online so I can see the swatches!

Thanks!
Rachel

We just bought a new home in Houston and it has a lot of windows. I either need resources or need to learn how to sew. I understand that you can save a lot of money buy making curtains yourself.

Previous owners painted around the fireplace but didn't seem to tape off the wood mantle and there is paint all around the edge of it. How can I remove it with damaging the beautiful stain on the mantle? Wasn't really noticeable until I repainted the fireplace with another color and now the white paint they used stands out and looks horrible. How can I accomplish this without damaging anything else?

Hey guys, I've been interested in buying an above ground swimming pool. I really don't want to spend much money on this project, and I've seen that Walmart has matal frame pools for as cheap as 300 dollars. Has anyone ever gotten one of these pools, and how was your experience. I'm just a bit wary, because when you look at other products that seem similar they are much more expensive.

http://www.walmart.com/catalog/product.do?product_id=3757289

Basically, I'd like to know if one of these pools is of decent/good quality. Thanks for the help!
