Do whiskey barrels need liner for planters
Comments (7)MG soils tend to hold too much water when used by themselves, combine that with a container with no drainage and your asking for trouble. I would take the plants and all the soil out and drill some holes, then mix the soil with wood chips or shredded bark and some real wood charcoal for added drainage. Do not use charcoal briquettes, some types have added chemical in them and the natural charcoal is various sizes which will also increase drainage....See MoreDo I need a liner for a ventilation insert?
Comments (9)Weissman, yes you are correct in your statement that the insert includes the blower (internal, not in-line or external). The liner (which is the term that both manufacturers use)I have indicated can be used in conjunction with the insert and basically trims out or frames the insert. The liner I am referring to in no way could be used with an external blower. It has a rectangle cut out in the middle of it the size of the insert. I am familiar with the set up that you are referring to (in-line or external blower) in which case you would just get the liner. The scenario you mention is not my situation. Bottom line is I need someone on here that can advise me on capture as it relates to these particular ventilation inserts and whether I need the liner to accomplish this. Can you advise me on that? If not, is there anyone else on these forums that can advise me on capture?...See MoreCoco liner rolls - can I cut in circles and use as a placemat?
Comments (8)Thank you everyone for your comments and suggestions - especially maddielee for the warning about bugs! This is a super low budget affair so most store bought items are just too expensive! I got birdcages at AC Moore for $8 each (medium size) and am planning to do live leatherback fern and babys breath (Sams club) arrangements with fairly lights ($13 for 6 of them with batteries included!). I did a mock up and it looks really nice but I do want to make it appear a bit wider. Clay or plastic saucers of the size I need would just be too $$$ since I think we will need about 10 tables. I hope the coco liner material will be more budget friendly and it would allow us to tuck in sprigs of baby breath around the outside of the cages. Will go look at it today to see what I think and check on the cost. We do love the tree slice idea chickadee2_gw mentioned and DH is cutting some from a cherry tree we had removed last fall to serve as posts for a cupcake stand. HD had round pine boards (32" and 17" I think) for $10 total (both) that will be the platters. Will be cheaper than the cardboard versions! I think the kids are also going to use a wood burner on some thinner slices to writ their names and wedding date as paperweight/coaster "gifts" to the wedding party. I know I probably should have posted this on the wedding board but it seems pretty slow over there. Thanks again, and please chime in of you have any other good ideas we might be able to use!...See MoreRoman shades - do I need a liner for this?
Comments (6)Thanks, good to know. @Shadylady2u - in your opinion, would it be possible to use lining for a flat shade that is 90 inches wide too? I'm wondering if the width here is the problem... maybe the liner fabric needs to be stitched to the shade fabric for better support? Would really like to stay away from pleats of any kind, as I don't think this fabric would lend itself well to that look... as opposed to a heavier more formal looking material. But do let me know if others think the fabric will work with the pleats....See MoreMichael
