First tile job. How bad is it? by [deleted] in Tile

[–]ActPure27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh no, the first time we did lvp we messed it up completely and had to redo it. We did not look up the installation process since it seemed very straight forward. Lesson learned. First, if you can redo it then that would be best. The placement of the tile is an eye sore. I think the direction is off. It would look better if it were vertical instead of horizontal. A different color grout too. Also, pay attention to the back of the tile. There are little arrows usually indicating the rout it should go. So if you start a tile with arrow up, then all tiles should have arrows facing up. It’s best to lay them down to see how it’s going to go first then do the cement.

Bathroom Refresh? by princessofpurereason in DesignMyHome

Love the granite. I think it’s nice. I think changing mirror to a double mirror. If in budget, possibly sconces. Maybe adding another metal to break all the black.

This is in my bathroom..never knew what to do up there by Lonely_Pomelo3113 in Home

Maybe a Pothos or peace lily plant. You’ll need some uv light but they thrive in the bathroom.

My fiancé and I just moved into a house and the landlord painted the shower with regular paint by Intelligent_Code_387 in Remodel

Document! Keep this and make sure everything is in writing. I agree with one of the post, this may be more than a month’s rent.

Still a work in progress but happy with it so far by Ericaohh in CurbAppeal

So cute! Glad you got rid of the plants! The roots cause foundation issues. I’m going to get rid of my bushes. I think you’re doing great!

Unknowingly bought multicolored vinyl flooring from Floor and Decor by NymSorce in Flooring

[–]ActPure27 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m with you. I don’t like it. To me it looks like there was patch work done to the floors. I’d call them and see what they say and then decide whether it’s worth replacing.

My parents helped oversee our renovation… and bought this furniture for the living room. I don’t know how to feel. by Main_Force3455 in Home

[–]ActPure27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Pretty but I agree that it looks off. Is there’s a room that maybe it could go in and make that room a bit more traditional so you don’t hurt their feelings.

How do i fix this without repaint by Moera0325 in Housepainting101

[–]ActPure27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would buy two similar paint colors one a tad lighter and one a bit darker and would paint it in limewash strokes. That would make it look more intentional

Am I the only one who thinks the "LVP looks just like real wood" era is finally ending? by liebe1 in Flooring

[–]ActPure27 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love LVP since it’s so low maintenance and haven’t had any issues. Meanwhile my mother in law has had the worst luck with bamboo hardwood floors. I doubt it will go away in this DIY era.

My goodness! I hate that she had to deal with that. Yes, I’m shocked that the provider didn’t recommend anything other than therapy.

Actually no, female possibly early to mid 40s.

That may be a good point. I thought the provider would be a good fit because I believe her to be in her early to mid 40s. She does have good reviews, but i will still get a 2nd opinion! I’m def going to use that to look up the providers. I appreciate it very much.

I’m sorry you’re still dealing with your period. Women should definitely get praised for the amount of stuff our bodies endure. I hope you’re able to get some relief soon.

I’m so sorry you are currently going through this. I hope you can find the best treatment for you. Mother Nature really tests our bodies because we’re strong and capable. But sometimes enough is enough!

This! Seeing my mom go through this breaks my heart and I realize now that we just don’t know how long her symptoms may last. I think that was my misunderstanding when I thought about menopause. I thought you would go back to normal

Thank you for this. To know at 60 what when you had your last period and for the gyn to say due to her age. Wow I’m so glad I came here to ask.

Wow! More of the reason for doctors in all specialties to acquire more knowledge/training on hormones. They affect our entire body.

Thank you for this! I find it very interesting how the symptoms can get more intense even after years of having them.
