@Joannaes--you actually should remove the old paint with a paint stripper (I've used citri-strip in the garage, or if you have a balcony that would work too) and strip the paint off that way. You literally apply it, let it sit for a few hours, and then scrape the paint off. It takes time but is def worth it. Then I would sand until you reach the wood, then prime again and repaint. That way you get a great finish and don't have a built up layer of old paint. Hope that helps!

I work at a marketing agency, and one of our clients is a company that makes an anti-snoring device that's similar to Nozovent...it's called Brez. Check it out at http://www.brez.com. It really does work!

Lol mine is magazines too...I have an entire drawer full of them! I need to get rid of them though, as they just sit in there collecting dust and I don't read them...

@Hellkat - you might want to try ebay, they have some brand new designer duvet covers for less than $200--heck, for less than $100 sometimes!

@JasonLoper - I thought about doing this, so maybe I will just have to give it a try :)

@Miami's Elaine - Yes, they are a total pain...when I move out of the parental's house I am definitely going to get a dresser with more shallow drawers!
