Actually found out that though it may be a messy job I won't have to remove sheet rock as my mom attached it all to a slick type of board and in some areas I have found it is coming off very easy and the rest is popping off quite nicely! Behind the 1/8" slick board is the studs no sheet rock...

Well, I guess she did it very carefully. It seems it would have been easier to remove them and then paint. My mom thinks weird.

Thanks I did figure it out. 1. the temp setting was set to low 2. there was a lot in the freezer at the time. Thanks for all your help Stacey

Neal, that is funny what you said about them not painting behind the pictures. One day after I moved in with my mom I was removing the pictures and dusting and found she had not painted under any of the pictures! OMG I was like Mom what the heck?! She was like well I was doing it by myself...

I am a girl, I am not sure if that makes a difference but I used to love it when people left stuff in their apartments because I would get $50 bucks a month off my rent to remove it by either putting it in the apartment dumpster or by hauling it off. Most of the time it was the easiest thing...

wow sounds like you are in for a lot of work but in the end it will be worth it. Nothing like putting your blood, sweat and tears into your own home. Good luck! Wish I had some good advice or tech to help but I am not very tech suavy. I like to fix stuff myself and I am very good when it comes...

Thanks so much for everyones help I will look into this and get back

no when i bought ice cream I would always put it in the back of freezer to keep it as cold as possible. Last night I noticed that the freezer section dial was set on 2 so I put it on 5 hoping that that solves the problem

Well thanks for the advice

How do you remove a faux brick wall. My mom about 35 years ago bought this kit and applied these 1/2' thick bricks to one of the walls in the kitchen. The adheasive she used was black and thick. She does not remember what she used. Well that wall takes forever to clean and collects cobwebs...

Greetings I also live in KC!

Hello all my name is Stacey and me and my mom live in her 100+ year old house. Wish I could say it was a well made home but my mom was a struggling single mother when we were growing up and bought our home for $3,000 back in 1974. Both my sister and I grew up here and over the years my mom has...

My moms Montgomery Wards energy saver fridge, freezer causes our ice cream to melt and has caused some spoilage. But it freezes ice cubes after about 12 hours. 1st. though I am not tech suavy I am thinking it is not getting cold enough. So what type of thermometer would I need to get that...
