Ok I have a few questions on homes and decorating... I found this great info, but it doesn't answer all my questions. I have a red brick house, in the crossing, at Elmod Close.

Questions:
1) What do bars count as? And can they hold items?
2) What do pets count as?
3) Where do I get fancy doors at? For regular free standing brick house.
4) Can anything put on a mantle?
5) Am I understanding the info right and be able to use all the items I have listed below? If there is a question mark I just haven't found what I am looking for.
6) Where are trunks?
7) If I put let say a memory chest under the bed, can it have some items in it?

Thanks in advance to anyone who may help!

>>Putting something in a container on/in/under a home item or putting a container with something already in it on/in/under a home item will make that item (in the container) disappear (upon leaving/log out/etc.).

Really? Because I seem to recall the house not even letting me put the container in/on/under the furniture if there was something in it already. Maybe I forgot that I was placing things manually instead of all at once...?

>>1) What do bars count as? And can they hold items?

Most likely it counts as a table, but table slot and bed slot are interchangeable (just make sure it's replacing the correct piece of furniture, however). How many items it holds will probably depend on the slot it goes into.

>>2) What do pets count as?

Pets count as pets, entirely separate slot. And, no, you cannot put things on your pet.

>>3) Where do I get fancy doors at? For regular free standing brick house.

Doors, like exterior homes, might be limited based on house type and class level. I know that arcanewolf.com (the wolf's den) has a list of which is for what, but not sure if that info made it onto the Wiki yet. Assuming any sort of doors can be bought for a home, specific shop info can be found in the Shops category of the Elanthipedia Wiki.

>>4) Can anything put on a mantle?

Dunno. My guess is that mantle = wall, rather than an item slot on a firebin slot, though.

>>6) Where are trunks?

On trees, war mammoths, and the occasional goblin (sorry, couldn't resist). Look to the Wiki for shop info, though.

J'Lo, I'm a ranger.. I'd believe anything.....

Bars use the chest/trunk slot. They aren't their own entity. You can put 4 items in and 2 items on them. Weapon racks and armor stands are their own entities, however.

Ok one more silly question. I changed houses, didn't like the last. Heres what I got as far as decor and furnishings so far, but can't seem to get my chairs near my table which is driving me nuts. Can we do this or it just stuck like this?

[Kaetilyne's Home]
A lingering scent of wild roses fills this room. Its bare gold-flecked black marble floor supports an ebonwood canopy bed and a lustrous ebonwood table, and the area is enclosed by walls of gold-flecked black marble. A black marble fireplace with a gilded mantle burns near the far wall, above it hanging a pair of dark crystal sconces shaped like budding roses. You also see a dark red velvet armchair.

I tried the whole home change thing and it moves furniture around but never puts the chairs near the table. Just odd if ye ask me. It a set of four armchairs too why it say one?

Thanks again,
Kaetilyne

Ahh thank you didn't even see that one...
