it is something that you recline on, not a sofa, but normally sits in a corner of a room, more of a decoration rather than a practical use.

My bedroom set is whitewash in color...like a very light tan, but whitewashed. Unfortunately my walls are a very light brown. To make matters worse I have a tiled floor and the tiles are almost the same color as the furniture. I have to contrast anywhere and the room is VERY boring. I have no idea what wall color would go well with the furniture. Can you please help me?

I think my well has collapsed so I want to drill another one. I am not sure how deep I need it to go. The one I have goes down about 100 ft if I am not mistaken. I live in west Tx. I just need a ball park figure to have a new well drilled. Include having someone do it for me with the cost of all new supplies. I also need to know what all i will need.

My bedroom is 8'-9" x 10'-8". I can't put my bed longways, without it being a VERY tight squeeze because my room isn't very wide, so the only way to put my bed is facing the closet (although I do not like the way that looks).

I'm trying to figure out how I could fit in a nightstand and dresser, and possibly even a chair without cramping up the room. I don't have measurements on the furniture yet.

Here is a floor plan of my room so you can get a feel for it. Any ideas of how to arrange my room are appreciated!!

Is it possible to buy a empty warehouse, with a large amount of open square footage, in or around the Los Angeles area for cheap?
One that hasn't been already professionally redesigned (which would increase the $). What additional costs would be of concern, (heating, etc.)?

I don't want to be offensive, but as a new ressident in the country I was very surprised how the houses in general are made of wood (main structure) and pre-manufactured materials (isolation, walls...). Any opinion from an expert?

Hey guys. My house is very white. I would like to paint a wall in my bedroom. I'm thinking the wall behind my headboard? The walls are all white. The furniture is a black color (cappuccino supposedly). The headboard is the same black cappunccion, with a bar ontop thats steel.

What color should I paint the one wall? Which wall would you paint? The one with behind the headboard? That wall is pretty empty, but the headboard stands pretty tall...

Hi All!

My husband and I recently bought a home and the bathroom is in need of some work. The tile comes from the shower stall all the way around the entire bathroom, roughly 3 feet feet up from the ground.

We don't want to have to rip out all of the walls and replace them (we'd leave the shower stall tile as-is) , but want to cover up the tile or remove it with a crow bar and put white wood paneling in it's place or over top of the existing tile.

Do you think this will work? I've never used wood paneling before, but am thinking it will be a lot less work to either just cover the existing tile with it, or chip the tile off with a crow bar and cover the once-tiled portion with it. We'd use chair molding to finish the top and bottom of the paneling. Also, we'd most likely need to use chair molding to finish the sides where the wall tile meets the shower stall tile. Do you think covering the existing tile or chipping it off would be easier?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I'm painting the open spaces in my bathroom. Picture, roughly from the ribs down is a light colored tile. The open spaces i'm painting in a olive color. My question, if I am painting the open space on teh walls, do i also need to pain the ceiling or should I just leave it in the beige/white color it already is?

Some builders (most) use the inside dimensions of the room (24x24) but some builders want to use outside dimensions of the building which adds up considerably. Which is appropriate.

Whenever my girlfriend comes to visit or vice versa, it is cramped to sleep in a twin bed. I'm just looking for some kind of product that would be able to temporarily make my bed larger during the times she's here. We have some storage room in our room, so if it could be folded or stored easily that would be ideal.

I just moved into my new place and I have all white walls. I have an espresso colored bedroom set and a white rug just like in the picture I'm putting up here, but I have a sage green duvet cover which is a little lighter than the picture. What color should I go with on my walls that is complimentary without being too neutral?
