RE: What One Woman Did With Her MH
Sorry about that, and thanks Bell. I copied the link that I found, and it worked last night, but not today. I probably did something wrong.

What One Woman Did With Her MH
I thought some of you might enjoy what this single mom did with her mh. It is featured in Country Living Magazine, and you can see it here.

Re: Ever used or heard of DecoPaint for Laminate ?
Has anyone heard of -or- tried this kind of paint for painting over the paper laminated particle board cabinets in your MH ? If you have, can you please let me know how it worked out for you, and what you thought of it? Thank you. Website http://decotime.com/index.html I thought the paint sounded g...

RE: Bathroom sink cabinet?
Hi Lorne, I 'm not sure how much space you have, but I actually used a kitchen base cabinet WITHOUT cutting it down, because I wanted the height. I bought an unfinished sink base at a salvage store, and painted it myself. I even found a damaged piece of counter top, with enough usable space for my p...

RE: Can osb boards on floor be sealed and stained?
Whew! I was worried there for a bit. :D I'll try to remember to label anything that isn't a mh. I remember a thread about doing some of the things in a mh, that are done in a stick built home, and I'm for that 100%. I just haven't started yet in my mh, so my only experience is in my house, my daught...

RE: Can osb boards on floor be sealed and stained?
Hi Yanita, Yes this is my main home. My vacation home is a mobile. I wanted to show Rosemary how the paper looked in case she wanted to consider it for her floor. Hope I didn't do anything out of line by posting a pic that was not a mh. ETA that I just noticed that you said "pics" (plural)...

RE: Can osb boards on floor be sealed and stained?
Have you ever seen pics of where people have torn brown contractor's paper, craft paper, or paper bags, crumpled them up and put them on the floor with adhesives, then polyed over them? I've seen some that were quite impressive. It has a stone look. You can do a search on HGTV's site to see what it'...

RE: Painted plywood floors - new idea
The last pics were great too. I also find it fun and a challenge to do things on a budget. That's how I got into faux painting; if I couldn't have the real thing, I paint it. I'll be watching for the next project.

RE: Painted plywood floors - new idea
Nice job Mobtek! The black and white turned out really good with the white cabinet and purple wall. Did you protect the floor with poly or what? I'm waiting for hubby to go out of town long enough for me to do my kitchen floor.

RE: Sweat-equity....gettin' out of it more than you put in..
Audie, you're certainly right about the readiness to advise from the helpful folks here, but I was referring to what you said about showing a person what the problem was, going to Lowe's with them, getting what they need, then showing them how to fix the problem. THAT's why I said I could learn so m...

RE: Painted plywood floors - new idea
I know what you mean about changing your mind. I remembered seeing/hearing something that can be used to prevent seepage of paint underneath the tape, so I searched on the HGTV message board, and copied these excerpts of posts there, just for info purposes. They are as follows: 1: Look into Frog Tap...

RE: counter top makeover.
Eblood, you're saying that you put the flooring on the countertop? It looks very nice in the picture. The sink went well with it too. I love thinking out of the box. Good job.
