    I made a little box out of wood about a foot by 6 inches with hinges so it could open, of memories of my dog who recently passed away. I made a hole in the ground of my woods so only the top is visible unless opened. Will it get ruined by rain, or insects, or any other thing? If so, how could i protect it?
  • Is this a wise decision or a waste of money?

    My husband is going to retire from the Navy in just over 5 years. We've decided that we want to remodel any house that we buy ourselves. I know this is a lot of work, but we really enjoy wood work, and fixing things. There is a program offered at a local JC that offers a course in construction. It's a two semester certificate program. I've spoken to my husband, and he said that we should take the course together. The course teaches heating/air conditioning, walls, windows, floors, roofing, plumbing, dry walling, electrical, wiring, finishing etc. Pretty much from building a house from the ground up. When we find our house, we will have help from my brother, because he's been in construction for years. Does anyone think that this is a wise decision or a waste of money? Please no rude answers, thank you.

  • New furnace won't stay running.?

    Had a new Payne 80% efficiency furnace installed 5 days ago Worked fine for 3 hours. House dropped 7 degrees below set temp. Finally at 10:30 kicked on blew cold for 30 seconds, shut off, came on 1.5 minutes later and blew warm for about 4 minutes, then blew cold for about 5 then shut off. Did not run long enough to bring temp up to where it should be. Service came out next day, reset furnace, checked thermostat, put cheaper thin filter in, opened up all our vents ran for 3 cycles ok and then back to the same problem. Now it comes on willy nilly but only for the 30 sec, 4 minute, 5 minute thing so house never warms up. He is supposed to be back today but needless to say this is getting old and cold real fast.

    to give it an effect of being made of small glass tiles (like Victorian shops) and where can I purchase it. I've tried B&Q to no effect. I only want it for Xmas and would like it in white Many thanks for your help but I don't think that I am explaining well enough. I've tried all the sites but I keep comong up with what you have advised. The tape I want it very like the tape that you can put round doors as a draught excluder. You used to be able to give your window a 'leaded lights' effect.

Everyday napkins make festive place mats when they're chosen in patriotic hues and layered to evoke star shapes. This setting combines blue linen and red-and-white ticking napkins (if you can't find ones you like, it's easy to cut and hem fabric into approximately 14-inch squares). Plain ceramic dishes and blue and white blooms in vases carry the theme.
