I'd get one or two baskets that fit the shelves and put the miscalleneous item in them.
The rest of the shelves will go wonderfully with stacks of folded towels (if your towels match)....
Naval Jelly contains phosphoric acid. Cola (sugar-bearing variety) contains this as well. It might be worth a try...
Do not confuse Naval Jelly with navel jelly...
A concrete slab like this has a rough underside, which makes it nearly useless. Especially as breaking it into useful pieces is hard. Using the broken-up bits to pave a path makes the most sense. T...
I like to have a choice of cleaners. Most jobs are handled nicely with dishwashing soap: powerful and not too toxic. Some jobs need an alkaline or acidic cleaner. Good to have those (I once used li...
If you want it modular, build the storage boxes/drawers and put those under the mattress. Of course you need something in between the mattress and the boxes. A slatted base comes to mind. The ends ...
LA,
I think th ereason you cannot sand is that your floors are stained black. Sanding will bring out the rather light natural bamboo color.
I do not have experience with b...
I use one of the woven plastic bags (2 x 3 ft something) as a 'hamper'. Doesn't get sirty too quickly, but looks a bit messy. I could try to fashion a box like this, or perhaps place it in some to-...
A Chinese restaurant I frequent has foot pedals for the tap water in the toilets. That makes more sense. There are actually two pedals close together, one for hot and one for cold. Controlling the ...
Not in NY but in Amsterdam, a terrace and a balcony on one side, and a small balcony opposite are 'enough'. I do not need any more, but it can be nicer to be on the street and meet strangers.
I like the bedroom most. I agree on the living room being overstuffed - some more space and perhaps what remains of the furniture swapped for more open, floating pieces.
Changing the c...

There is matte vinyl sheet that is meant to be applied to ground floor windows. It doesn't stick on permanently but, either static or like the vinyl stickers that kids u...
The living with the view outside is really nice, but I do not like the cairs much, or th ebedroom. But at least we're getting a pic of the bedroom with this entry :)
I don't like this at all. It looks nice in a birds-eye view for city planners, but walking under it will just be like under any bridge.
These things called 'trees' do not take up much ...
This is small. It is also cool, as it is clear that with very limited resources someone made it into a very livable space.
I mean, we would all prefer the 'small' 700 sq ft apartment w...
Dark floors are not suitable in a dark space. My parents had a lovely wenge floor (apart from the splinters) but it was way too dark for the long room with the only window to the built-in garden.

Bad idea indeed. Epoxy (depending on quality) is also not the nicest material for food contact. Zinc or copper would be infinitely better materials.

I give it a Super Cool, even though I hate the living. The cupboards and wicker seems so out of place with the rest...
This is coherent, clean and the view is extremely nice. A happy home. The ironwork however is so much 'not my style'...
The L-shape makes this room look small.

The three bar stools are lovely (and from spain). Never seen them affordably in europe though :(
