Q: I have had this ice cream maker sitting on the attic steps for a couple of years. Too big to sell online. No room to display it. But I love the graphics on the outer part. And now that I took it apart, the inside is sweet, too! I am wondering if any of you crafty geniuses out there would know a good way to seal this for outside use to keep the graphics crisp. Would acrylic spray do the job? Deck sealer? I looked around online and didn't find much advice and nothing I really trusted.

Q: Hello, We are planning to move into a new rental apartment, and I like pretty much everything about it but the bathroom. It is clean and new, but the brick-and-greenish color palette is really a pain to my eyes. It doesn't look either warm, or fresh, or friendly, and makes the small place look even smaller. There is not much we can radically change about it (changing the tiles is not an option in a rental), but is there anything we could do to smoothen the contrast or visually make the best out of it? Thanks so much in advance for your help!

Q: Help! I need the collective wisdom of the Apartment Therapy community. I found this lovely West Elm Source Oryx dining-size table on Craigslist, and it's perfect for my dining spot. But I'm stumped as to what style chairs to put with it!:

Q: I've been living in the most wonderful one bedroom apartment on the second floor of an old house for the last year, and would really like to find a way to take advantage of my large -but slightly awkward - entryway, which consists of a rather tall staircase and high ceilings.

Q: I got these from a flea market for 40.00 (pair). They are an interesting shape and each one has 6 legs... The seller said she inherited them from her aunt... 60s 70s maybe? It is a wooden frame and upholstered... Any help or leads would be well appreciated!

Q: My friend needs your help. She's a newly divorced mom and has just bought a mostly great house in upcountry Hawaii with an awful, dated peachy-gold splotchy master bedroom. The good news is that it is a blank page - she has no furniture yet so whatever color she chooses can set the tone for the room (the furniture in the picture belonged to the previous owners). 

Q: Do tell! Is this couch totally ugly or totally RAD? Do tell ASAP because I may be buying it tomorrow! $100 off Craigslist and from a smoke- and pet-free home. Yikes! ...Too perfect?

Q: My best friend and I were looking to move in together. Initially we searched for a two bedroom, but in the neighborhood and building we wanted the price was not realistic. So, we found a beautiful one bedroom that we both absolutely love.

Q: I'm hoping you can help me. Do you happen to know how to uninstall the Google Drive application from a Mac? I just downloaded it and discovered after using it I don't want or need it. For some reason I CANNOT get rid of it from my machine. Thanks for your help!

Q: My wife and I just purchased a condo, and we are having problems with laying out furniture. We didn't think we were going to have a hard time, but everything thing we tried looked weird and cluttered and just wasn't working. I have been looking on Apartment Therapy but didn't find a good answer so I decided to get some help:
