Hey everybody. I dropped a candle on my area rug - how do I wax out of a carpet?

Does anyone know what the colour name/company the green comes from? I want it for my 200ft student abode.

I am going to attempt to trim the width on some salvaged bamboo blinds.

Can anyone suggest an easy way to do this?

When I trimmed my matchstick blinds I used scissors, and I could not feel the thumb on my hand for several months afterwards.

Home decor is not for wimps.

I think men do the chore wrong on purpose so they are never required to do it again. I certainly remember my brother doing that. Sneeky!

A trim of silver upholstery tacks would look good on it as well. Nice work!

I too like a clutter-free look, and don't have any magnets on the fridge. However, you do need somewhere to put info on events and such that is easy to access. My friend came up with a great idea - he bought a magnetic locker organizer at the dollar store. It looks like a small magazine holder - great place to put those small (but important) fliers.

I painted my bathroom with horizontal B&W stripes. I love it! It is by far my favorite room in my apartment.
