Thumbs down for the NatureMill. It has broken on me three different ways, and I think I have managed two successful loads of compost in six months. Every other time requires me to scoop the compo...
Container Store sells oven/freezer/microwave/dishwasher-safe glass containers with glass lids for a couple bucks each, in small and large sizes. They're nice enough looking to serve in as well:
If you are selling a home, these could qualify as "fixtures" and thus would transfer with the home, depending on the law of the state where you're located. If you sank a lot of money into a system...
Can anyone weigh in on cedar decking and how it holds up in DC weather? We live in a very modern house and are trying to decide whether to stain and seal our cedar fence and deck or simply let it ...
Where can one find the concrete (are they concrete?) planters featured in the second and third photos? (I've come to terms with the fact that I am not going to make them with a mold.) If anyone h...
Ikea cabinetry is largely MDF but has no formaldehyde in it, which is a pretty big green step. Most of their wood and MDF is from plantation forests, so another green step there. Also, it lasts, ...
The polypro Fado is a better choice than glass if you're going to put it on the floor or someplace where it could get bumped. (I learned that by breaking a more expensive glass orb with the gentle...
This could be made for less than ten bucks from a single Ikea deck tile, two pieces of pipe (one with several very fine holes drilled) and an elbow joint or two. An easy DIY.

The samples make great coasters.
