Out-of-the-Box Furniture Finds on Etsy

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 21:43:39 +0000

We like to say that Etsy is at the center of the handmade universe which was confirmed after getting a behind-the-scenes tour of their office in Brooklyn, NY. They truly celebrate their sellers as nearly 100% of their furniture and decor came from their community of handmade and vintage vendors. One of my favorite pieces was their lunch table and bench built by Etsy seller David Ellison . I was flattered by the opportunity to contribute as a guest curator to the Etsy blog and share my picks of unique furniture available on Etsy. It was a difficult task to keep my selection from running too long as their inventory of fabulous furniture runs deep and changes constantly. Read on check out my picks with photos and descriptions and if you like what you see and are a member of the Etsy community, leave a comment with them as we’d both appreciate to hear what you think!

Brick Repair 101 | How Hard Can It Be?

Thu, 29 Jul 2010 18:50:00 +0000

Maybe you have an older home with a crumbling facade. Or it could be that the mason on your newly built dream home was looking forward to the weekend instead of paying attention. There’s a multitude of reasons why the mortar between your bricks will eventually need some TLC. Generally, when the cemented joints of a brick wall begin popping out, crumbling or falling apart it’s time to look at repointing . This brick repair can be costly even for a small area. The mason will need to grind some of the existing cement out and apply new mortar to create a smooth, stable surface. It’s a somewhat tedious job, but someone’s gotta do it. Why not, as we say, DIY?

admin — Thu, 29 Jul 2010 15:34:42 +0000

Reinvention is not just a concept for us mortals only. These days furniture units are being designed to multi-task and be a step ahead from the competition. Customization is they key so that the possibilities becomes limitless. The ReStyle Furniture by James Howlett does everything that a modern day consumer requires making it perfect in my books. ReStyle is a compact coffee table cluster. ReStyle is two tables, two chairs ReStyle is storage. ReStyle is a desk, a seat, and a book-shelf. ReStyle is a child’s dining table. ReStyle is a TV and games unit. ReStyle is a playground for children. ReStyle is versatile. ReStyle is sustainable. ReStyle is whatever you want it to be.
