We moved into a new Taylor Wimpey home about 3 years ago and a few months ago we figured we should make a start on decorating the place......Magnoliaitis had started to set in :( I started in the downstairs toilet and painted the walls with a nice vinyl matt which looks great. I bought a...

Thanks for the replys

Cheers guys It is a mahogany door (Council installed) The weird thing was this orbange pledge used to keep it good but since that went out of circulation it's declined rapidly. I'm guessing because if it's original colour a similar mahogany wood stain would be best?

My back door is wooden door (redish darkbrown colour) with a glass panel and I always used to use Pledge orange spray. It was quite a greasy product but did a great job of keeping the door (especially on the outside) looking shiny and in good condition. That product doesn’t seem to exist...

I'm afraid not the area it needs to travel is right slap bang in the middle of the house.

I've recently set up my computer system in what was an inbuilt cupboard, I managed to cut a piece of wood the exact shape of the cupboard and i'm quite happy the way thats turned out. The problem is there's no real room for the keyboard so what i need is a pull out keyboard shelf that...

I have just bought some Melbury bedroom furniture from MFI. we needed some wal cabinets and the bridging units were too deep so the only alternative was from their Melbury office range, it's a small cabinet which is only 380mm deep...Ideal, except for one thing it has a glass panel door. The...
