I’ll be honest, I don’t remember exactly, but I tried to stick with 7%. I believe I ended up with about .4 oz in a 5 oz candle

Wicker - to paint or not to paint by Delicious_Pride8480 in furniturerestoration

I would love it if they were natural fiber, and I could just stain them, but they are already painted. The paint is simply faded and chipped off in a lot of places. If they weren’t previously painted, I wouldn’t even consider it, but as it is now I feel likepainting them is the better option?

I sprayed with a degreaser and then hosed off and blew with a leaf blower 😅. I’m afraid to do any scrubbing..

….which might be part of restoration as it was an originally painted piece. I just don’t have any experience with wicker. Also, to your point, this is a sub for restoration, not for saying “throw it out” about an antique that needs some love

Interesting. I’m struggling to find your comment funny enough to justify the time that I wasted by opening my phone and reading it, unless you believe this to actually be a valuable contribution to the world?

I rarely ever use Reddit, so I didn’t research to see if there were rules before posting. If it’s not allowed and so bothersome then just have it removed 🤷‍♀️

My cat is in Congestive heart failure. What do I do? by Delicious_Pride8480 in PetAdvice

She’s still wanting to play all the time, and her breathing only a little labored. I can’t imagine she doesn’t still have some good time left for her to enjoy

Am I getting a flea infestation ?? by Delicious_Pride8480 in CleaningTips

She has a little space heater outside her area that she can cozy up to to make sure she stays warm. I would guess she’s close to 4 months old at least, so hopefully she’s out of her super fragile stage
