Decorating & Remodeling - October 2007

I am having trouble hanging my sweaters because of those stupid shoulder bumps they create. I am just folding them into drawers instead, but am running out of space, so does anybody have an idea how to store clothing more effectively?

I want a new house really bad but even when I get it I know I'll still be crazy over taking virtual tours and looking in houses. I cry when I watch extreme makeover almost every time. I'm thinking about joining Directbuy to buy furniture..has anyone tried it? Is it okay. Does anyone else obsess like this? Do you know of a website where I could view beautiful mansions?

I've heard of using wooden finals and I have used banisters before. Does anyone else have any other ideas for unique furniture legs for the small ottoman in my eclectic livingroom? Any trash to treasure ideas? Thanks!

The john lewis one would cost an extra £2000, but do you think the overall quality and look would be worth that extra money? I want to stay in this house for at least another 3 years so I want something that will last.

The Condo we recently purchased has fake frosted glass on the bathroom window. I am sure it went with the previous owners decor, however, not mine. Any suggestions on a safe way to remove would be welcome.

I am a female; 14. I am allowed to redo my room finally!. It has been pink sunset with barbie sheets for 10 years. I am able to do whatever I want. Finally, I think I know what I want. My favorite colors are buttery yellow, light blue, and light purple; also black. My main store to get things will be walmart. I love penguines and dots. I found the perfect sheets. Also, I found purple curtains. A black and white blanket, too. I plan on painting my room the yellow and painting my door with black with purple and blue polka dots. Right at the top of my wall I am going to put cute quotes and my favorite quotes. "Life's a sandbox; dig it" and other qurky sayings. My furniture is all white. I have a twin bed, white night stand, and a bookcase. My room is 9x9 +/-. Any suggestions? I plan to seperate the quotes with a circle. Thanks.

After removing porcelin tiles from concrete slab, the mastic or adhesive is still stuck to slab. Do I need to remove it by chiseling it all off , or skim coat it, or just lay the laminate with the padding attached right over the mastic?

I've found a lovely wallpaper, which is red with black & silver ferns (Paradise in the Julien McDonald collection http://www.grahambrown.com/store/viewProduct.do?id=157765)

I only want the wallpaper on one of my bedroom walls, so what colour should I paint the other three walls? It's a smallish bedroom. I think red would be too much and my mum and sister think silver, but I'm just not sure. If anyone knows any web sites where I can see a similar colour scheme I'd be grateful too. Thank you.

We had our house built about a year ago and now I am ready to tackle my white/eggshell colored walls. I am starting with my kitchen and I was wondering if I need to use primer on the walls because I will be painting them a reddish color and a tanish color.

and does a primer significantly make a difference when using the best paints? How much more will it cost to prime first? Let's say I'm just doing 1 10x10 room (although I'm doing most of the main rooms of the house). :-)

i currently have an IKEA termosfar track light set now, but i just heard from another friend (who has the same system) that it can only be installed with a overhead light already in place.
OR does someone know how to switch which outlets are connected to the light switch in the room? currently the only one is next to the bed, an needless to say, its pretty dark in the bedroom!
