I am redecorating my kitchen..does anyone know where to get ideas?

29 Jul

My home is almost ten years old…started with the basics in decorating my kitchen. Now I have the opportunity to revamp it…colors I have chosen are in the teal family. My friend suggested browns, reds, earthy tones. I have looked at hobby lobby, michaels, Ross, etc. but can not find anything interesting. Does anyone know where I can find such items at discount or do it yourself stores?????
Any themes that I should go with????

Where can I buy Star Trek hobby/model kits?

25 Jul

Hi! I would like to buy a few Star Trek hobby kits (USS Enterprise 1701 & 1701-A). I am quite a beginner, so I would prefer to start on cheaper (if less accurate) models to get the feel of it, then progress on. Is there a website or store that sells model kits at a reasonable price (since I will probably spoilt the first few)?

I don’t mind getting “old” kits eg AMT/ERTL kits although I prefer not to buy over Ebay as I have no experience with it.

Thanks!

Why is it when your married partner asks you that they want to buy something than gets mad when you say no?

23 Jul

I pay all the bills though both of us contribute to the household income. The item in question is on discount and because it is part of their hobby. It is not something that is needed in the home as they already have a smaller one but just WANT it because it is bigger. and on sale. I was asked if they could buy it I said no and now they are mad at me. I told them that we need other items at this time and the money should go for that. Why do they do that? Why ask at all?

Dave offers Eva a discount on purchases from Dave’s store if Eva will not tow the cars of Dave’s customers…?

16 Jul

Dave’s Hobby Town and Eva’s Yarn Shoppe are adjacent stores with adjoining parking lots. Dave offers Eva a discount on purchases from Dave’s store if Eva will not tow the cars of Dave’s customers who park in Eva’s lot.

Dave’s discount is legally sufficient consideration:

1. only if Eva uses it.

2. under no circumstances.

3. only if Dave adds a cash rebate.

4. because it is a promise of something of value.

I plan on buying a Hobby Model kit on eBay?

13 Jul

It looks legitimate it says brand new. It is 62.00 dollars and retail price is 86.00. If they happen to rip me off or send me a missing piece. What do I do? BTW I found a site that sells the same thing for 62.00 except it has shipping. This one does not (If you do not live in the US then shipping is not for free.)

Who has the cheapest brokerage fees for small $ traders?

10 Jul

I want to take $1,000 and start trading (just as a hobby), but if I’m paying $7 per trade (or even $4) there’s no way that I could make any profit because of my small dolllar amount and frequency of trades (I want to trade, not hold onto long term investments). What are the absolute cheapest discount brokers? Alternatively, are there any brokers that charge a flat fee per month as opposed to a commission on each trade?

Is this an infringement issue?

08 Jul

I am just starting up a small business in face painting (getting licensing, insurance…yadda yadda…) I have been doing this for over 10 years as a hobby and casually had been using a “business name” to call myself when I set up at local festivals.
Now that I’m making my business official, I just filed this name as my fictitious business name with my county here in California and they told me it was available to use. After looking up online…there is another face painter in Utah who uses the exact same name. I have asked different resources and get different answers…some say it’s OK because they are not federally trademarked and that it’s in a different state and some say I could get sued for common law infringement.
Does anyone out there really know and give me advice about this situation? I appreciate it tons! Thanks!

Additional Details
Considering there are a million “ABC Animal Hospitals” across the country…to me it seems like fictitious or DBA names aren’t a big deal?

How can I make model rocketry into a unique hobby?

02 Jul

It seems fun, but all you do is assemble the little pieces out of a kit and blow up the rocket.

Is this what feminism does to women? Adults playing with fake babies?

02 Jul

To me this is just creepy:
WASHINGTON – Many people like to stop and play with newborn babies, but now some adult women are playing house with fake babies.
Some women are even going as far as taking day trips with the fake babies to the park, out to eat, and even hosting birthday parties for them.

Forty-nine-year-old Linda is married with no children of her own. Now, she says she feels like a mother because she has Reborns — dolls made to look and feel like the real thing. ABC 7 Talkback:

“It’s not a crazy habit, like, you know, drinking, or some sort of, something that’s going to hurt you. It’s like a hobby.and it doesn’t really hurt anybody,” Linda said.

These women are paying big bucks for this hobby, from $100 to a few thousand dollars. For Reborn owner Lachelle Moore, the fake babies fill a void.

“What’s so wonderful about Reborns is that, um, they’re forever babies,” said Moore, who has grown children and grandchildren. “There’s no college tuition, no dirty diapers… just the good part of motherhood,” she added.

In her Kansas City home, Moore even has an elaborate room for the dolls. She organizes birthday parties, bakes a cake and even invites guests.

Psychologists say there could be a problem if and when these women stop interacting socially with others in their life.

Where can I find clear glass heart-shaped ornaments?

27 Jun

I’m looking for the clear ornaments that you can paint yourself by swirling paint inside, but I would prefer to have the heart-shaped ones rather than round. I’ve looked at Michael’s, JoAnn’s, Hobby Lobby, Ben Franklin, the Christmas Depot, Sunshine Discount Crafts, Oriental Trading Company. So far the only place I have found them was on eBay. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Looking for a hobby magazine that is strictly about radio controlled model helicopters?

26 Jun

I am looking for a hobby magazine that’s just about radio controlled helicopters. I have a copy of Fly RC, and it looks good, but it covers radio controlled model airplanes mostly. Sense R/C helicopters are much harder to master, it looks like there would be a hobby magazine that is devoted to the radio controlled helicopter hobby. Ideally I would like a magazine that would not only cater to the experienced R/C helicopter pilots, but would help the newbies like myself as well. There are just so many models out there for the beginner to chose from. The Chinese imports alone are too numerous to count, and their affordable! Then there are the hop-up parts, a whole cottage industry has sprung up around, making improvements in the basic Chinese imports. Can anybody give me an Internet site that will list all of the radio controlled helicopter hobby magazines? I know there must be several out there.
