Am I doing this right?

how do I got about this?

it's a finished wooden garden stool but I wanna do something creative with it & use it as an end table.

what brand of spray paint do i use? should i do some prepping to the stool before i spray?where can i buy the paint?

thanks for ur ideas!
how do I sand it?


I am not a pro but I would think that you should sand it first then apply a primer and then you can paint it how you want to.

You can buy the paint from any hardware store or Wal-Mart, Lowes, HomeDepot store. Ask someone that works at one of those stores for a professional answer.

a neighbour's cat passes over dividing walls of other garden to come and leave his stools in my garden?
Nubia in the front yard

This cat owner has a back garden three houses away from mine. His cat invariably calls into my garden in preference to other more close gardens to leave his stools. I have put up a plastic chicken wire one meter high atop of the dividing wall. After a month, the same cat tried to come into my garden again but apparently did not succeed to overcome the obstacle which it damaged however. Why does it persist to use my garden in preference to other gardens as his place where to leave his stools. A bit curious!


now that his scent is there he will continue to return to use the bathroom

Is it safe to plant a vegetable garden in soil that has had dog stools for two years?
Holly in the Diner

I'm concerned that the soil might have harmful bacteria not suitable for growing food in.


I don't think it will be a problem, as long as the dog was healthy. At least I hope not--I just planted over 100 tomato plants, along with 80 pepper plants, and hills of summer squash and potatoes right where the dog, well, you know.

I love to garden. Can anyone suggest plants that will tolerate dense, often compacted soil?
Still life, Quinta Palmeira Gardens, Madeira

I have mature bamboo stools that border a section of my property. The plants that are planted there have remained stunted. What can I do? There is a lot of space and potential for this area - PLEASE HELP!!!
Thanks for the responses, (I was about to plant cactus).
when all else fails - I would still like some suggested plants.


The problem you are having has more to do with the bamboo than the soil. Bamboo is notorious for growing underground. This is how it spreads. The problem is with the far reaching root system of the bamboo. It is encroaching on your garden area, and competing for the water and nutrients your garden plants need to survive.

Dig a trench along the lot line and remove the roots. Install a barrier in the trench and refill. Aggressively remove any bamboo shoots and as many roots on your side of the barrier as possible.

This problem also happens with Raspberries. I buried a 1' by 12' length of vinyl siding for a barrier on my raspberries. It has worked well this year to keep out new raspberry growth past the barrier.

As for your clay soil, dig out at least a 1' circle, and a foot deep for each plant. Break up the clay from the holes and add sand, or compost, or both, and mix well, Refill the holes with the mix, and replant. This will give them a fighting start.


  • Buy Cheap

  • Apartment Therapy Chicago | Living Rooms Without a Coffee Table

    We bought a coffee table after not having one for so long because we thought every livingroom needed one. It seemed like a good idea in theory to have a large surface infront of us to set things but after a few days of having it in the center of our livingroom we ended up moving it out of the way to vacuum, and then never bothered to move it back. Although we haven't officially discussed it I have a feeling we both like it better open or one of us would have moved it back. We do have tables on either side of the couch, then a shelf behind the couch, a bookcase within reach, and an ottoman as well. So plenty of places to put things. I guess the coffee table was just overkill.

    They all appear to be so awkward to me:

    #1 has a stool that wants to be a coffee table but doesn't have enough space to grow into one.
    #2 looks like a therapy room at the child-psychologist's office.
    #4 is so painfully vast and Empty - Anyone want to sit and look...

    How to Set Your Ceiling Fan the Right Direction for the Season ...

    Do you want to keep your energy bil down this summer by using your air conditioner less? A ceiling fan can really make a difference in keeping your home cool without having to turn on the air conditioner or circulating cool air so that you can use your air conditioner less. There is one little trick you need to know to make this work. You have to set your fan so that it is rotating in the correct direction for the season. During the summer, it needs to rotate counterclockwise or left and in the winter it needs to rotate clockwise or right. In the winter, it should push the warm air down, whereas in the summer, it pulls the air up and forces the warm air away and down the sides of the room. 

    Things You'll Need: a stool or chair to reach your fan Step 1

    Get out a chair or a stool so that you can reach your ceiling fan.

    Step 2

    Locate the switch to change the direction of the blades. This is usually on the middle section just below the blades and above the lighting.
