I'm considering repainting my walls and also having the hardwoods resurfaced and refinished. I'm just not sure which order to do it in.

I figured you paint first then worry about the floors, but the floor people suggested I do the floor first because of the dust. Something about not getting the dust on new paint.

what do you think?

My family is moving soon. We were accepted with the credit and are moving November 13th. We only had a $1000 furniture allowance so I am with my old furniture. The room is 11.5 by 12'8" the closet protrudes which is fine and there is only one window. The wall with the window is opposite of closet and door. The wall also has a rust textured wall. It is like marble except rust colored. I was thinking of a natural feel. My furniture is a love seat and a couch at the moment. They are medium dark brown and are staying. I would like to build a coffee table and either buy or build a end table. The coffee table I was thinking would be clean lines very simple legs, only about 1.5 to 2 foot tall and 3 foot long 2 foot wide. I would have a glass top on it and instead of a flat top make a sort of box look with the glass as the top. Place pebbles me and my family collected in the mountains from a stream (roughly 1000 pebbles about quarter size) I am in photography so I would take photos of nature.

I've just moved into an already furnished bedroom and the furniture in there is dark cherry. My current furniture won't match but I need additional storage. I don't want to buy cherry furniture because it is expensive and I won't use it in my next apartment (within a year's time). What can I put in there? White or black don't seem like good choices but any other wood color seems off as well. Any suggestions?

Thank you very much

The cabinets are oak and are a honey color with a lot of wood grain. I'd like to paint them a dark brown color, but don't know if this would look okay. I've searched and searched - cannot find pics of any dark brown painted cabinets...only white, black, red and green. Your thoughts??

I need to raise my floral centerpieces off the table about 2 or 3 inches. Does anyone know of an inexpensive pedastal type block that will help me do this? It needs to be clear or glass, so it doesn't take away from the flowers. I need help! I'm stumped!
