With all this council tax rebates, due to the houses being incorrectly banded I was just wondering how I could find out how much the house was worth back in 1991.

A link to an example would be great, since I don't think we can post pics in our answers. I'm just wanting to know what people would actually buy. I'm going to start a small business to make a little money on the side...nothing big right now. I'll make custom aprons. Custom in that they get to pick out the style, colors, pockets, ruffles, etc. I would like to put a few styles to choose from on the sight, and I have an idea of what would sell, but I want to see, if I'm on the same page as everyone else. Of course they could do a style not on the site, but already having a visual to choose from would make it a lot easier for both the customer and myself.

I realize many people simply make their own aprons, and most people don't even use aprons at all, but if you are someone who does like aprons, please tell me what you'd actually buy. Thanks!

(moving out and complaining not an option) Are there any home remedies I can try to get rid of these roaches? I spray once a week. They're not huge and I just cleaned my apt top to bottom and discovered that they're not living in my apt somewhere they must be in the walls. I think it might be the ceiling b/c I ONLY see them on the walls & ceilings. They are always running too (I assume b/c of the spray) so it's like they just move through my apt. I've heard of several things I can do to the floor/cabinets but what could I do for the walls & ceilings besides spray?

WD-40, DUCT TAPE, BUNGEE CORDS.

These three products get a lot of use around our house! How 'bout yours?
Might be interesting to know if you're a man or a woman.

I would like to organize a large quantity of yarn. All of this yarn might fit in a 55 gallon outdoors trash can. I want to organize this yarn in different color groups. What would be the cheapest and most space saving way to store this where it's readily available to use at a moments notice?

I've recently gotten into aromatherapy, and I was wondering if anyone had any experience or ideas in making something flamable ( perhaps sawdust in wax) that would infuse our home with some good smelling scent as we burnt a fire?? ( so basically I want a handheld-- SOMETHING-- to place in the fire that would fragrance our home)

thanks,

K

I need to run in and out of one of the two stores tomorrow morning to buy a whole bunch for my job. If they do sell them...and I am assuming they do, please let me know what section to look for them so I can run in and out without speaking to anyone who works there and generally never knows where anything is anyway.

I have a garage about 5 metres from the back of my property that i have converted into a room, and i was wondering how difficult or practical it would be to build an undercover walkway from my back door to the garage. i think it would help us use the room more if we could walk straight through without getting wet!!
any input greatly appreciated.

My friend has three indoor cats and is wondering if there's a natural repellant which won't upset the cats. Would burning a cedarwood oil help? Any other ideas?

I'm looking to add a little greenery to my cubicle at work and I was wondering what kind of plant I should buy. It should be low maintenance and be able to survive in nothing but office lighting. Water isn't a problem, but it would be nice if it didn't drop leaves everywhere as well.
