To consider the tones that are contained in a fabric design you are thinking of using, here is an experiment to try.

First, match paint samples as closely as possible to the colours in the fabric.
Next cut them out and then lay them out on an off-white background such as a grey or buff envelope.
Then screw up your eyes and squint a little at the colours. Move them around if necessary, so that they lie next to other shades.

Screw up your eyes again; if the colours seem to merge, then they are quite close together in tone. On the other hand, if they don’t merge, then the colours are of quite different tones.
Armed with this knowledge, you’ll be able to make much more effective decisions when choosing the shades and tones of any accent colours you want to accompany your decorating scheme and enhance it to the maximum effect.

Recycle paper, cardboard, newsprint, magazines, aluminum cans and batteries. ;

Recycle and reuse. Roughly 50% of the average person’s trash can be recycled. Don’t forget that hazardous waste like batteries, your printer’s ink cartridges, and cell phones can be recycled too! Find out how and where to recycle in your area.

Always buy recycled paper. Just 1 ton of recycled paper saves 17 trees. Just because your community doesn’t pick up all recyclables on the curb, it doesn’t mean there are not viable alternatives nearby. Check with dry cleaners, supermarkets, manufacturers, your local public works department and civic organizations to find out where recycled goods can be dropped off, at a location near you.

Did you know that just in 1995 alone, recycled toner cartridges kept over 21,000 tons of trash out of landfills? Believe it or not, now you can recycle your printer’s toner cartridges! Every year, Americans throw out enough printer cartridges to stretch from Los Angeles to New York City and back again. Toner cartridges can be recycled, having just as good a performance as an unrecycled cartridge. To recycle your toner cartridges, find a local business that does printer cartridge recycling, or contact the manufacturer of your current toner cartridge and ask about a cartridge recycling program.

Not only should you recycle, but buy products that are recycled. By purchasing these products, you are helping to conserve natural resources, and to protect the environment.

wood door

Step by Step How to Installing the Door :

1. Carefully measure the rough opening and wall thickness so that door and jamb are properly sized to fit the opening.
2. Set prehung door and jamb into rough opening. For exterior doors, include a bead of caulk just inside the edges underneath the threshold.
3. Using cedar shims, a square, and level, position door so that it is square, centered, and plumb. (For exterior doors, if threshold sits firmly on frame, shims are not necessary. Otherwise, shim as needed.)
4. Partially drive 6d nails through the jamb, cedar shims, and into the rough opening framing on the hinge side. Place nails in horizontal pairs, with equal spacing between each nail, and respective nail and jamb edge.
5. Re-check the door to make sure it remains square and plumb.
6. Finish nailing the jamb into the opening; add shims and nail through them at each nailing point, continually checking to ensure the door remains square and plumb. (For exterior doors, screw or nail threshold to the floor.)
7. Gently fill remaining space between jamb and opening with insulation; do not over stuff.
8. Install door casing; caulk if necessary.
