I have a crazy obsession with butterflys… My room isn’t the biggest room ever… I have a Q/size bed & a built in wardrobe it doesn’t leave much room but i need the Q/bed (pictures will be attached at the bottom.) its currently painted creme with blue on the bottom with wall paper that splits up the two coloursthe design is suns & moons from my sister previously being in here. I was going to paint it as a garden but now that i am 18 i think that’s alittle childish. I love the style of black and white rooms…Although my mum doesnt like dark rooms, But as i said i have a crazy obsession with butterflys.. So if anyone has any ideas, pictures etc that would be absolutly awesome… Because i really need to do something with it… Thx =]

P.s Sorry photos arent the best, I had to use my phone.

So the contest is to describe or draw changes that are possible to make for our boring lobby and terrace. The lobby is simple with shelves to store backpacks and lunches, there’s a big TV that shows all the upcoming school events, the entrance doors are glass, and there’s one little wood table. What could I design to enhance that?
The terrace is fairly nice with wooden lunch tables with big umbrellas over them and a little garden in the middle of the rectangular terrace. What could I add or change here to make it better?
Nothing too expensive because my school won’t consider it.
Thanks for all the creative ideas!

I am preparing a housewarming gift for a friend- she is planning to have a garden and likes to do some canning. She has most of the main supplies she needs – so far I have a basket – I am putting a book with some canning recipes in it- I would like to put about 6 canning jars in the basket but I would like to put something in the jars – any ideas for what to put in th jars would be greatly appreciated, I am also including a hanful of seed packets- besides what to put in the jars, what else can oyu think of that owuld make this basket complete??? Thanks in advance for any creative and useful ideas

For my Media homework, I have to design a front cover for a specific target audience. I’ve decided to do 40+ males and female, and for the idea of the magazine I’ve got a gardening magazine which comes monthly/weekly. I can’t think of a good name for the magazine and it has to be shortish and snappy and something that sticks in your head easily. I don’t really want it to be Gardening Weekly/Monthly and I would prefer it to have alliteration in it(doesn’t matter if it doesn’t though).
I’ve got two names but they’re kinda lame :
Gardening Group
Plants
As you can probably see by the quality of the names I thought of I’m kinda desperate ha ha!!
Thanks in advance, also the name I use gets best answer! xx

My daughter is getting married in July of next year. I was looking for some money saving ideas for her wedding. She is planning to do it in her back yard. She has been working on her garden. And I am planning on building her a gazebo to be married in. Thanks everyone!

Plan to have a sing along piano player, we have a statue of Liberty street lamp, will post “Staten Island Ferry” banner on boat lift. Have concrete back yard, will call it “Tavern on the Slab” Party for approximately 45-50 people; theme is a surprise for the bride and groom. Family very big NY Ranger fans. Party in Florida mid-March. Need more ideas for food, etc. Grooms birthday is day after wedding; plan to have a cake that looks like the Stanley Cup. Can use any and all helpful ideas you have
