    I am having trouble regulating my humidity level in my master bath and attached master bedroom. I live in Wisconsin and the last week or so the indoor humidity in that room has been fluctuating from 50%-70%. I have been getting some condensation on the bottom of the window panes. I have a...

    Hello everyone, Hope you're all well! I've signed up to this forum to look for an advise. I've searched the interned to and fro but couldn't find anything similar. My partner and I live in an old mid-terrace house (build 1867) and since we moved in (a year ago) we've been having problems with...

    Hey, made this small bedroom project for myself. Is it too much 'goodness' here, or does it look all right to you? What would you change? 🤞 Edit: I recreated this project. Original designer is Luana.

    Hi, I recently moved into a new home and have these built-in cupboards in 2 of the bedrooms. In the master bedroom I am aiming for an industrial look (so far thinking of a brick wall, range of greys throughout the room, building black pipe curtain rails) however I’m lacking inspiration for...

    Hello Everyone, My Bedroom light seems to been getting dim then going back to bright then dim every few mins I'm not sure how to source this issue or what's going on. I live in Manitoba, Canada and there's a breaker that controls everything downstairs by deep freezer. I haven't...
  7. Windows and Doors
    Our basement has windows (used to be exterior) that go into another room that was added on. Would it be considered a legal egress window if I build out a bedroom in the basement and use the existing window as an egress (size meets code) if it's not going directly outside, but rather into another...

    I want to put up shelves that would circumvent the entire (small) bedroom but one of the walls has a closet that stretches across the entire wall. Can I put regular L-shaped brackets on the top of the shelves so that the shelf would essentially be upside down? would it pull the bracket from the...

    Hey all, I'm really glad there's a forum like this where we can all share ideas and help each other benefit from the wonders of doing projects on our own! Anyway, I just refinished my floors and purchased a new cheap rug (I'm a college student in a section 8 home I'm trying to fix up), and I'm...

I don't have any technical skills, but for my surprise it was very simple to put together, the instructions were easy to follow and go together quickly.Then I put the mattress in the bed frame.I used this frame in the tween...

    Hello everyone, it's been a while since I've posted on forums, and the first post on this one in particular. Anyway, we have a project and are unsure of how to proceed, and this seemed like a good place to ask for help! I have an addition off of the side of my house, currently closed to the...

    What is the best placement for a smoke/CO detector in a bedroom? Ideally I would like the center of the room, however, we have a ceiling fan that also uses CFL bulbs in each of the bedrooms. All three doors for the bedrooms on the level are within four feet of each other. I have a smoke/CO...

    Hi there, I'm excited to be here! I just repainted my bedroom this beautiful ice blue: Iceberg by Sherwin Williams. I love it. The trim and door are white. The carpet is a medium shade of gray berber. I feel stuck. I've spent over a dozen hours over the last couple weeks browsing online...

    I want to repaint a bedroom that used to be part of our attic. It is large with lots of angles and is not well lighted. We have a bottom portion that is about 3' all the way around with the walls angled upward. I would love to use a coastal blue color. I am thinking of a deeper blue on the...

    I recently moved into a new rental apartment in New York City. My bedroom used to be the front living room, so it's huge, but it's separated from the den/kitchen area by a very wide doorway, which currently has two bifold closet doors. The doors are paper thin and don't reach the floor beneath...

    Hello, I'm new and tackling my first DIY project. My bedroom set is from the Bernhardt Monterey collection. While the pieces do not match they strongly coordinate- same wood tone, same brushed nickel color hardware, and curves & circles are repetitive elements. Based on limited space in my...

    We have noisy neighbors who are keeping us awake at night. Since we're remodeling the master bedroom anyway, we want to suppress sound in its two exterior walls, as well as one interior wall (plus one exterior wall in the adjoining master bath). The bedroom gets cold in the winter and hot in the...
