I know this could be anything but I just moved into my new house. I have been here for a week. Since we moved in a dug out a fire pit. I put up a fence for the dogs and kids in the backyard. And now im lost and still want to do more. Tell me what I can do next!!!


Answer
Paint. There are paints with chalkboard and/or magnetic effects which can be cool for a children's room (they can use chalk and alphabet/numeric magnets on the wall). You could paint each room- I saw an effect recently that I liked where three of the walls were the same solid color, and on the fourth wall it had been painted the color around the edges of the wall but the middle was a different color (the three walls were a maroon color and the middle of the fourth wall was a cream color). It looked really interesting- a "frame" effect.

Build window planters/flower boxes for the windows.

Build a picnic table so you can enjoy your new back yard- I like the octagon shaped ones. There are also kits where you can build two park-style benches that convert to a picnic table to give you mroe versatility.

Build a sandbox for the children- this is really simple, actually, and not very expensive.

Install new toilets. Something about used toilets bother me, personally.

Add more shelving- those wire shelves are sturdy, inexpensive and easy to install (Closet Maid).

Do something decorative to your mailbox.

Paint your front door and/or shutters a bold color.

Plant a flowerbed.

Put up a birdhouse (bought or built), bird feeder and/or birdbath.

Your options are limitless- owning a home is an ongoing project.

Help with remembering the name of a toy from the 80's.?

The set of toys came with dolls. The toys were probably from the mid 80's. They were not large. One that I still have is a fireplace with a bench. The fireplace opens and becomes an outdoor area with a bbq that opens (came with tongs) and the benches legs reverse and the bench becomes a picnic table. I also remember one of them was a music stage with a guitar and drums but can't remember what it converted into. Not sure who made them. Anyone familiar with this toy please let me know. Thanks.
