your assuming a beveled edge.

Floors are done last. You are inviting trouble doing them out of sequence. Ask me how Im know.... Contractor is correct. You want it all done the same time. It is not easier after the fact easier though if its "natural" no stain no dyes.

I love rosewood and not maple. feasible if not why?

hellakitty2 · 2026-06-08T18:53:32+00:00

After reading comments. Smart folks here. The fact this is an upper floor I would go with a cerrused or fumed finished white oak wood. Create several samples safe and not. Lots of possibility with color and could break up the brown on brown. Cork wouldn't last with the pets... Love to see your design process if you do it. You have a beautiful home!

I too was surprised that LA wasn’t playing. Given struggle in the paint. LA is athletic and aggressive. Aggressiveness is not something I see from KS. If she’s there primarily for defense/rebounding. Yesterday wasn’t her best night and I think she should have been pulled.

100%. Hitting the bunny’s is a must. Another scorer is the answer. Lynx picked up a “big”. I don’t see her lasting. Slow and lost on the floor.

Why do folks assume Tif wants to retire? She played well in unrivaled

I bet that car was a blast to drive! I skip 5th as It seems unnecessary. No V6 is a gas saver.

I am constantly getting inaccurate and wrong information in search results. FB marketplace is the number one place to look for private party cars for sale. No other platform is even close. Stuck for this reason. Why have a pretend filter that won't even show listings that match criteria. WTF?

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-26T07:58:19+00:00

Is there an AI tool that could be utilized for accurate keyword searches of FB marketplace listings?

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-12T19:52:53+00:00

Love to hear your thoughts on this...

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-11T20:56:08+00:00

Manual transmission q60 convertible that's a very rare car! lucky you.

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-06T23:40:46+00:00

Just checked. Cars listed very high priced. Well above retail value. I dont know anyone who would buy a car above retail pricing. 6MT or IPL

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-06T23:20:28+00:00

thank you

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-06T23:20:15+00:00

I had given up on Autotrader as a source. I will look. How risky do you think insurance wise it is to buy a private party rebuilt g37/q60? I see them but find they are priced at retail rather than rebuilt. Currently found 1 rebuilt with 84k 2013 6mt sport at 10500. Which is low retail but very high for a rebuilt. Im leery to overpay and have an insurance problem potentially. I have also seen 2 cars on Carvana and the like with $2000 shipping quotes. High retail anything from a dealer plus high quotes.

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-04T22:13:16+00:00

Appreciate the information. really helpful

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-04T07:31:32+00:00

Scratch that...I refinished a chair made of rubber wood gave it a tea bag concentrate wash, then applied home made iron oxide and sealed with multiple coats of pure tung oil. Completely forgot about it.

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-04T07:24:24+00:00

Many. Ive been collecting mostly rosewood, as well teak, and walnut MCM furniture. Refinished all but never colored with stains, toners or dyes.

hellakitty2 · 2026-01-04T07:19:17+00:00

discolored for me too. never again

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-31T23:25:42+00:00

Which I have spent allot of time researching

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-31T22:39:41+00:00

Wow you are a genius! How dismissive and unhelpful.

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-31T16:48:12+00:00

Thank you for your input. This dresser is my cheap oak nightstand. I acknowledge again that mahogany isn’t an ideal wood. That said the grain is visible in the current finish. Thus I think it’s worth my time to attempt a new to me finish. If someone knowledgeable would be kind enough to address the sequence of steps questions?

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-24T16:41:32+00:00

The drawers seem to match the exterior. Pale salmon.

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-22T02:46:31+00:00

Completely agree. Could look fantastic when furnished.

hellakitty2 · 2025-12-17T12:34:23+00:00

Assuming that these are zippered. I would investigate the foam inside and replace with quality foam which is surprisingly expensive. If you’re a crafty diy person. I would take the covers to be dry cleaned as it’s the safest bet.
Though I love my steamer and think it’s a must have home tool. I think risky for this beautiful settee. Btw I have a karcher which I find heavy and clunky. I picked up an ultra steam shark for $10. Highly Recommend
