I'm not sure what kind of carpeting to put in a grade school child's bedroom. What is going to make it show less wear? Will it help if it's textured? What will make it shows stains less? Will a darker color, texture, a varied color pattern, or some kind of stain-proofing treatment help?

I recently picked up a little wooden desk at a thrift store. On the inside of the drawer there is a stamp "branded" into the wood that says EULER Cedarburg, Wis. - I can find nothing on the name as a furniture manufacturer, yet there are no other indicators of where it came from. Anyone have a clue as to who made this thing? When? I'm quite interested now!

Grout is too light and looks stained. I used "spray" sealer from Lowes... wondering if that was not the best. Can I just get a different color and spread it over the same way I did when I put the floor in the first time?

Should I seal it differently?

We're building a new home and I am in love with the idea of darker hardwood (like walnut) or a stain which would darken another type of wood. I'm looking for a walnut type appearance, including on the stairs. If anyone has any input about their own experience, I would be very appreciative. Thank you so much!

We have tried a floor scraper - did not do the job. We have tried an air chisel - did not do the job. The only sure way so far is a flat end crowbar and a sledge hammer and a lot of sweat.

My cabinet doors have been down for several years due to circumstances beyond my control. Started painting them nd had to quit because of medical emergency. My question is does anyone out there have any suggestions to get this job done. I have purchased two different tones of green paint (Darker olive/Lighter olive) Bring the ideas on!

I'd like to have my bedroom painted a dark purple. The problem is that my husband seriously hates painting, and I'm seriously horrible at painting (but would willingly do it). I have a friend who LOVES to paint, and I'm thinking of asking her if she'd do it. I just have no clue how much to pay her for the job. It's a medium sized bedroom that's currently off-white. The ceilings aren't high or anything- we're talking super average bedroom. How much would you pay?

My daughter loves to draw on the walls with pencils and markers, and these drawings do not wash out, so I need to paint the walls. The color on the walls is white, but I would like to use light pink color. So my question is: should I apply white color first to hide the drawings OR should I apply the pink color from the beginning? And If I don't need to apply a white color first, then should I apply 2 layers of pink color or 1 is enough?
Thank you for your answers!

Ok, my fiance and I are in the middle of redecorating our house. We have $1000 left out of our budget. We have everything but the paint and curtains. What paints would go well with navy blue furniture for the living room? Also, what colors would go well with maroon bedding? Last thing, should I do any accent walls or paint them the same color? Oh, one more thing. I am also wanting to paint the trim around the windows and between the walls and the ceiling. Thanks in advance.
