old sleigh /getting ready for holidays!
Comments (11)Excellent ideas there Twomonths. I was going to suggest bricks inside boxes for weight and then wrap them with the paper and plastic red ribbon. How about a string of Xmas lights outlining the wood or in with the boxes. Even just using faux poinsetta bushes I think would be pretty. They now sell those large plastic Christmas bulbs (Christmas Tree Shop has them), tuck them in here and there. Definitely some holiday greenery. Get some cheap at the Dollar Store. Got a pair of "Santa Boots" you can put beside it, with a Santa coat. Use an old pair DH might have and spray paint them black or use enamel paints for outdoors. I'd spray seal them also. You might be able to find a large red coat at Goodwill and even a big ole' black belt to wrap/sew on it. Maybe even a white feather boa for the trim. Santa Hats are already out in the stores. Stuff it to make it stand up. Cut up and sew a large red Santa bag from a sheet, find that at Goodwill too. Stuff it with branches or something to make it full. Only thing else I want to say is... I am so jealous! I wish that beautiful sled were mine. It's so perfect for the holidays. Cherish it and protect it for sure. Sal...See MoreGetting ready to replace old units
Comments (2)I would start by getting some quotes from several local HVAC companies. Before you start calling I would check them out with the BBB (www.bbb.org) just to make sure they don't have any negative feedback. When they come, be sure to explain what you're looking for - there's no point in them trying to sell you a $12k system when you're not looking to spend over $7k. Take note of how much attention they pay to your current house and system - if they perform any calculations, if they inspect your ducting, if they mention replacing the A/C lineset, etc...in general the more attention they pay the better job they'll do installing your system. Once you have several estimates you can post them and some of the experts here can weigh in on the particular equipment you were quoted....See MoreQuestion re: selling old books
Comments (3)I've sold a lot of old books. You can check eBay's completed listings to see what they sold for there, and also look them up on Amazon. If the book is out of print, as yours must be, you can still find many on Amazon. I also like Abebooks, but checking eBay and Amazon will give you a good idea of what you can get for them. Feel free to email me if you get stumped. I might get stumped, too, but I'll be happy to try. Susan...See MoreGetting ready to sell our condo
Comments (64)cpartist - I think it looks good overall. Some of the rugs looks a little wimpy etc. but doubt that will keep you from selling, same as some of the accessories being too many in some spots. Overall impression is very positive to me. Most of that stuff is just nit picks for lack of other things to pick on I think. If you do decide to balance the artwork you might want to look at command hooks. No need to make any holes. I think with wider angle pictures that shows the rooms it will be just fine. Only thing I would do is leave just the larger accessories and remove any groupings of smaller things - less to pack later anyways and it looks less busy in those spots, for those that like less "fuss"....See Moreaprilneverends
