The key to any paint is purchasing a quality (usually higher priced) paint. If you like a mis-mixed color, compare its value with correctly mixed paints of the same brand. Also use a good quality brush and/or rollers. The better the paint the smoother the application. Mis-mixed paint is only as good as its quality, no matter the color.

This is a take-off of a Lapeyre stair. Originally designed in the early '80's, it is a prefab metal stair and platform system built for easy installation and use of alternating treads that is preferred to ladders in a maintenance environment. It would not pass muster with building codes for dwelling use. Great imagination...maybe it is only a secondary stair and really serves as a sculptural element.

Our oak floors (25 years old) were originally finished with a wax coating. After that long they need sanding and refinishing, but I think we would use oil or wax rather than any other finish. It requires a twice yearly re-wax and buffing process, but they do look good for months at a time. Don't let any moisture stay on for very long as it can leave spots that are difficult to remove.

I have thought seriously about purchasing a small plot to grow daffodils or create compost...or both. But I would not stray that far from the city. Apartment Therapy New York | Former Urbanites, Now "Local Food" Farmers The New York Times 7.3.08 |
