Lawn Edging
words: 312Lawn edgingHow do you make those flowers bloom where they are planted and not go overboard and how do you make your turf stick to its own turf and not edge into your flower beds, borders, and garden spaces? Lawn edging is the answer!Edging bricks, lawn timbers, and treated wood edging , molded plastic edging and heavy duty plastic strips are all ways to wall in your flowers and keep weeds out of your garden and the other landscaped areas of your yard. In addition to curbing your weed problem, lawn edging also keeps mulch and decorative landscape treatments in place. Brick edging remains a favorite method of lawn edging. Now available in many colors and pattern variations, it is an attractive, durable, and easy way to cut back on lawn chores. If you want to dig deep into your weed problem, pressure treated wood edging or plastic strip edging is the way to go.
Because these types of edgers are usually easier to bury deeper than bricks, molded plastic edgers (decorative), or wood timbers, they provide more resistance to types of invasive weeds that send out underground runners. Of course, you can always put the action into lawn edging by trimming your lawn with an edging tool. Lawn edgers are sold in various types from spade shaped implements to those that look like saw blades on wheels. In addition to muscle powered diggers and walk-behind rolling edgers (which also take a fair amount of muscle in a dry summer!), there are many electric and gas powered appliances. Some weed trimmers also have special lawn edging attachments that keep you from chopping the shrubbery off with the weeds!With all the variety in today's modern edging tools, appliances, and edging embellishments, it's easy to make your manicured yard a picture of perfection right up to the very edge of it!.

Hosting An Open House To Sell Your Home
When selling your house "by owner" you don't have the advantage of a real estate agent with tons of clients so you need to draw people to your house and one way is to have an open house. This will require some prep work and a bit of your time but can reel in potential buyers and get the word out about your home.
The best day for an open house is Sunday.
This is the day most people spend with their families and are out and about running errands so zipping over to an open house is a nice break.
It's best to hold it during the day so people can see the
house in daylight.
Plan to have the open house for several hours - like noon to 4.
Put an ad in the real estate section of the paper a week ahead of time and let it run all week.
Your ad should list the time for the open house, the address, some special amenities of the home like how many bedrooms or if it has a nice view, the asking price and a phone number where they...

Platform Beds
Platform beds, as the name suggests, are beds that are supported by a thin or narrow strip of wood or any other material. These beds have no head or footboard, which a traditional bed contains. Platform beds are preferred by people for their firm sleeping surfaces. They are positioned lower to the ground and serve as a storage space for small houses. Usually platform beds rest on a rectangular surface, but they sometimes have small legs at the four corners.
Unlike a traditional bed that has a spring mattress, a platform bed's thin surface holds a thin mattress and sits low to the ground. The cost of a thin mattress is much less than that of a spring mattress, and bedding is minimal saving the buyer even more money. They are usually made of hard and durable wood and appeal to those who want to give their bedroom a minimalist look. The beds have a sleek look and are a self-contained unit. One can build a wide plank around the bed to use as a bench or a stand.

The Shoemaker and the Brat
At seventeen years old, I was a brat. A mixture of innocence, immaturity and righteousness. And I carried that attitude with me everywhere, including my trip to the shoemaker.Now, to understand why something as simple as a trip to the shoemaker would stay with me all these years later, I have to explain. I came from the most loving and nurturing parents a child could ever want. Even back then, I knew I was blessed with a wonderful family, but this realization also made me a little arrogant. <...
