Sometimes the strangest things on a house are the ones nobody notices until years later. This tiny object sticking out of the wall has sparked dozens of theories, ranging from completely ordinary to wildly imaginative. The real answer might be surprisingly simple—or surprisingly important. Looking at the photo, what's your guess?

Fitting for a dish top candle stand: English brass candlestick and air twist stem wine glass (both circa 1760) plus a clay pipe and a horn tobacco/snuff box resting on a leather bound book.

Squirrels have eaten through the wood in my window sill and in one afternoon ate a hole in my trash can lid from the city. How do I keep them away for good?

This drives me insane. I always struggle to get paint to stick to silicone!

Some people use shellac primer, but it still doesn’t last. Others run a bead of decorators' caulk over the top and paint that instead.

Personally, I think the only proper fix is to cut the silicone out and start again.

Anyone found a solution that actually lasts?

Looking for ideas for updating this stairwell that leads to our basement. I personally do not like the wallpaper but every time we open the door to have a guest downstairs they always stop and say “oh wow I really like this”. Not sure if that’s something they say out of shock 😂 or if they really do. We need to replace the light for sure and I’m wondering if a color drench would work over the wallpaper and trim. I had to remove some other wallpaper two years ago that was in our basement and it had not been properly installed so there was a lot of damage to the walls, so I’m thinking that removing the wallpaper isn’t an option for us right now. I’m also not sure about the shelf above the stairs. Should I try to remove it or is there something that could go on it? The flat wall space above it is only about 12 inches. The wallpapered area leads down to a door that is painted black like the trim. I’m also wondering how I should carry the design through all the way to that space.  and just to add the rest of the basement is painted in SW accessible beige with pure white trim.  there are some SW dovetail cabinets downstairs as well.

Should I paint my main entrance door black or leave it white? (The stair treads and handrail in the entrance are also black). I wasn’t sure because it’s so close to the coat closet door, which will stay white. If so, do I also paint the window trim and door trim?

Sometimes, there are moments in life when you're forced to use a railway station toilet.

Nobody wants to do it but it just happens. No can do.
I walked into one of them today and the first thing I see is this (you may have to look at the zoomed-in image). I was quite literally standing there for a few minutes, pondering life's choices.

It could be expensive. What if this was one of those moments that newspapers write about: "Woman finds a £10,000 engagement ring in public toilet".
It could also be crap.

I was also curious as to what had led to this incident. Was it one of those movie moments where a betrayed woman throws the ring down the toilet in tears and anger?
Or was it simply an accident?
Perhaps the person who had lost it hadn't even realised they had lost it.

Would you have tried to get answers to any of these questions?
I didn't - I had to subject myself to using the toilet for its intended use and my train was coming.

What is this? The house was built in 1915. This square of cement with an iron ring is the back porch off of the kitchen. It does not open and the kitchen is above the crawl space. I’m thinking it might have been used for fastening an awning or something similar, that might have once been on that side of the porch which faces east (heavy morning sun).
