There may be an answer to a question you have about picture framing or furniture refinishing for example or an idea for something you'd like to try in the collection of question/replies.

Answers to questions about kitchen cabinets, furniture, wicker, picture frames and more

I get a lot of questions about furniture or other projects people are working on, each one really interesting, but there are so many I can't answer them all. Don't hesitate to ask though, yours may be one that will get answered.

I often get email answers returned that I do answer, because many people forget to add me to their acceptable email in the filters to control spam.

If you sent a question and didn't get a reply, keep watching, your filter may not have let it get through and it may end up here.

I'm sorry, but I don't answer challenge questions to email filters to get answers through. Many times I can answer another question for someone else in the length of time I would spend fussing with challenge email.
