I have a window where there is no wall spacing on the top or to the right of the window to install a bracket. Is installing a curtain rod possible in this scenario or is my only option is installing blinds?

I thought about getting a custom cut piece of glass to put on top of it, but what would I put under the glass? I'd prefer not to paint it either, but I guess I could consider that as an option if somebody out there has a good brand of paint to use. Thanks!!!

Ok, im a teenager so basicly i can't buy anything. ANYTHING. Just saying because i want to decorate my room and pple would probably tell me places where i could buy stuff. So, back to the topic, my room seems kind of dull to me so I want to decorate it but i have no materials, decorations whatsoever. I need some ideas and preferably a website about what i could do to make my space a little brighter. Oh ya, i live in an apartment so I can"t put anything up on the wall unless tape could hold it =)) And also i can't buy flowers, plants, anything so pls don't tell me to get a lot of flowers and stuff

I want to put a poster on a wall, but I don't want to leave pin marks in the poster. I don't want to use tape either, because the tape might not come off of the poster very well. What should I use?

I want to glue fabric to pine, like wallpaper, for decoration. How do I do this without the fabric bubbling/stretching?
Do I need to use a glue roller, or a spray adhesive maybe?
Thanks.

After weeks of searching for a solid white dresser for my young daughter and only finding cheap particle board, we ordered an unfinished pine dresser. Now, I am nervous. My daughters bed and bookcase is white, so we wanted to keep this dresser white as well.

My question is should we stain it a white wash? (I know that pine can be a little tricky to stain and would need to use a wood conditioner first) or should we go ahead and paint it a bright white, like the rest of her furniture?

Anyone have experience with this? I really appreciate your help.

I want to replace the lenolium tiles in my kitchen. The tiles near the sink are loose. I tried to replace these tile already but i could not get the old glue off and now the new tiles are coming loose. I have read that there is a primer i can paint on but will that stick to the semi clean surface?

We just moved into a new home and I picked out ceramic tile that I thought had a more natural feel than glaze for the bathrooms. After actually walking on the floor, the tile felt a bit rough and dusty but now it doesn't (the floor may have actually been dusty or I might just have gotten used to it). I think that i might have picked out porous tile because when the floor gets a little wet, the tile seems to absorb the water. Is this damaging to the tile or floor beneath it or will the water eventually dry out?The saleswoman never informed me that this tile was special in any way. Thanks!

I love abstract pieces as well as African American artwork and scenic. If I mix them all in one room or throughout my home will it look tacky? Should I pick on and go with it?


For example, I have 3 Wassily Kandinsky pieces and I would love to purchase some pieces from the Charles Bibbs collection. I have lots of bare walls and would love to showcase them both.

I am very contemporary in style and I don’t want the eccentric look. I want it to look clean and uniform. Any advice on this would be great!

I removed the baseboards, window and door trim. I painted the room and the trim seperately. I thought it would be easier. When I replaced the trim, I have some gaps where I sanded off the old paint that some one had globbed in the trim to fill holes. Now, I tried using a paintable caulk to fill the gaps. But, the caulk keeps overlapping my paint and leaving white marks. I think this just means that I am going to have to paint all around the trim again. Just needing confirmation I guess.

Thanks, NWA
