How can I make my new floor look old?
By yoooo I have one of those floating wood floors. It's cherry so it's pretty attractive. I wanted to have a reclaimed wood floor but the cost was prohibitive so I settled for the cherry floating. Anyone know if I could wax or polish it or do something to make it look a little less new and more 'lived in?'
headboard
By yoooo Anybody have a great idea how to make a headboard. Like maybe a nice grey fabric covered one? Do I use a piece of plywood propped up against the wall or what? Right now I have a mattress sitting on a box spring which is sitting on the floor. It looks nice because I've covered the box spring, but I'm thinking a headboard would look cool. Would love to buy Room and Board bed (Ella) for $899 but don't feel like spending that much.making new kitchen cabinets look retro
By yoooo I love the beautiful north light in my loft. It's in an old building so there are heat ducts and pipes and cool stuff, but there is a floating floor (I chose cherry) which looks nice but I like old, cruddy floors. My cabinets are light maple. I wonder how I can make them look more 'vintage.' Should I stain them darker, paint them black?? I like place with integrity, this one is cool, but not what I would have picked had I seen it » READ MOREbookshelves with cable
By yooooI love these bookshelves for my loft. I saw them in a magazine but there was no reference as to where to purchase them. Anybody seen these?
