Does anyone have recomendations on how to build life sized halloween decorations? For years we have been building figures out of wire frames and putting clothes on them but we are looking for a better way, so they can have more shape then the wire allows, like a horse. We thought of paper maiche but that would ruin while outdoors.

Is there any thing we can use to harden farbic, like burlap, around a frame? Perferably something that isnt very expensive...

supplies i will need? is this worth my while or is it too much trouble to get in to? ALSO, SOY CANDLES VS WAX CANDLES. which is best for giving out the best scent and why do most ebay listings mostly post the soy candles? ANY FEEDBACK WOULD BE MOST HELPFUL.

I have a sump pump and just had a new french drain on the inside perimeter of the basement put in. The wall has been treated for mold and sealed, but the lower part of the cinder block wall still is seeping... wet to the touch. Any ideas???

We are shooting for early Spring to have our basement totally finished. It is already studded and stubbed. Any suggestions from those of you who have already done it, or any 20/20 hind sight?
Thanks!

How deep should I bury it? Is it possible to buy pre weatherized pipe so I dont have to wrap it? Are the unions all wrapped or is some other solution better?
Can I use that flexible stuff in the ground or just under the house in the crawl space?
Any thoughts would be much appreciated! Thanx!

I have a small bathroom that gets very steamy, even with an extractor fan running. Every radiater I put in there rusts in a short time. Is there such a thing as a zinc plated radiater, and if so where can I buy it?

I'm painting over wallpaper remanent. We removed what we could (we spent about 5 hrs removing wallpaper) and we primed, primed, and primed again. In the end we used about 2.5 gallons of primer and it looked great. We just applied the first layer of paint and we have uneven lines and bubbles. How can we fix this without starting over.
