Decorating & Remodeling - May 2007

I am Re-Painting My Room And I was wanting to go with neutral colors...I am a teen And so I dont want to Be boring, but I want it to be like a cool place to hang out with my friends and just chill. And...I dont like green, because thats the color of my room right now (ew) Oh and By The way, I have cream colored carpet and White Furniture. And Right now, I have trim in the middile of my wall to seperate the white from green, the top:white & Bottem:Green, anyway, And I want to take it off, but my mom said either I take it off and have to keep the green, which would look really bad cause there wood be no seperating line and plus I hate the green, or leave it up and get to paint...I dont want to do either, but are there any tips that would make the "fancy" trim look less"fancy"? because my moms always like "I like the "classyness" of It..." And Im like *Im a TEEN! I dont like Classy stuff that much...well not in my room anyways...Sorry i wrote so much...but anyways Thanks sooooooo much!!!!

I am remodeling a house and installing a bathroom fan, I am told i need to add a switch external to the bathroom so the fan can be turned on from this location but not turned off once it is turned on in the bathroom. This is the case in the house i live in as well which is 10 years old. I am just wondering how the heck to wire that up.

I live in an apartment in los angeles. My bedroom in specific is always a blazing inferno in the afternoons due to the direct sunlight pouring through the closed miniblinds of my windows. I have installed a portable air conditioner in the room, but because the venting hose has to connect vertically to the window, I can only bring the mini blinds down halfway, allowing even more sun in than before.

What I need to do is remove the miniblinds and install curtains to block the sun. I've been looking at curtains designed to block out the sun called blackout thermal curtains. However, they advertise that they "Keep heat in", which is the opposite of what I want to do. Would the inverse also apply that they would maintain the cooler temperatures when the air conditioner is running? I would assume so, but I always like to ask first before making an uneducated purchase.

Thanks
