    I recently "inherited" a number of sample tiles in the Zodiaq and corian lines... is there a way to use them as regular tiles to create a table top/butcher block top?

    prob is that the boys have tried thatand they still can't figure out which to wire to where on the new switch... The blues run hot depending on which way the other switch is flipped

    What you think?

    I'm partial to hardwood.... classic, clean, rich.... Down here it really increases the appeal and marrket value of a home as well... carpet hold dust and moisture and allergens...

    Paint too brown!

    So ya'll know my husband and I are remodeling a 1950s apt... well, I chose (what I thought was) a deep burgandy/brick red color and now that its on the walls it appears a dark brown! What can I do to lighten it and add the red tint I was looking for? I've considered a glaze or even a wall...
