Recovering a Recliner Chair to Match New Decor?I have 2 recliner chairs with high backs and a front kick-out leg-raise section. I'd like to revamp the color. Has anyone had experience with a quick and cheap dress-up?
Repairing Contrast on Samsung SyncMaster LCD Monitor?I have a lovely Samsung SyncMaster 940MG LCD Monitor which may be on the way out. Over the last two days, there's been lot of "flickering" with colour change and now it has settled on a very light, almost white screen with no contrast which makes viewing difficult.
Problems Printing After Refilling Ink Cartridges?I have a HP F370 series printer and refill my own cartridges as a cost saving. Recently when printing, I'm getting only the top half of the image or printed word appearing on the page.
Inexpensively Recovering a Recliner?I have a high-back recliner with the leg rest that extends outwards. It is a clean-side model (not Batwings). I'd love to update it with a cheap home-made covering. Has anyone used sheets to cover the arms, back, seat, and leg rest? I have a staple gun.
Ground Cover Suggestion?Can anyone recommend a fast-growing ground cover along the lines of a succulent or one that is extremely hardy? I have a large central garden bed 30 feet x 30 feet with decorative white gravel and largish plants. It is 3 feet high.
Keeping Pastries from Falling?Does anyone have the secret to high-rise puff pastry? When I take my savory and sweet pies, etc. out of the oven, they fall. What can I do to keep that beautiful high-rise look. Thank you.
Recipe for Treating Dry Sun Damaged Skin?I'm after a recipe for an exfoliant and bleach treatment. It must be a user-friendly and home-made beauty product for my face, neck, and upper chest area.
Making Paint Pigment Colour and Dyes from Nature?Help please. I've recently seen how to make my own paint from cornflour and water, using natural clay from a bank for colour pigmentation and applying it to the walls using a circular rotating action with the hands. Fascinating!
Neighbor Rinsing Dog Waste under the Fence?I have a problem with the neighbors through the adjoining fence. They daily wash their dog's urine and feces against the wooden fence, which then seeps under the fence and into my vegetable patch. It has died from the concentration of material and constant wetness.
Using Ready Made Custard in Fruit Tarts?Has anyone ever used store-bought ready-made custard in fruit tarts, rather than making an egg custard, then placing the fruit in the pastry case and cooking? Has the constitution of the custard altered or dried out? I would love to hear back. Good baking from Australia.
Making a Propane Weed Burner?I have a very large garden which takes tons of care weed-wise on borders, fence-lines, etc. Can anyone tell me how to make a propane weed killer device rather than lugging around a 12L spray pack with poison? I'm sure it's more environmentally sound than poisoning.
Making Lolly Jewelry?I wish to make a wearable (not edible) necklace from lollies. I've always loved the old fashioned Licorice Allsorts, layers of bright colour sandwiched between licorice and cut into small squares or rolls.
Safe Flea Bath for Cats?I'm looking for advice regarding my cat. It's allergic to flea collars, spot-on treatments are too expensive, but he doesn't mind getting bathed and rinsed with Cat Flea shampoo.
