Shelving and we need all the many books that can have a good reader or a student come to be everywhere in the house, and we never know where to put them. Collectors also have that problem, of what is, at one time have nowhere to place things, and embellishments that give us for the house, where we put them?
For all that always comes in handy a shelf, but not always have the money at the time to buy or make us a lot of work, so today I’ll show you a shelf very easy to do, and besides it is very decorative and useful original.
To make very few things we need (another virtue of this shelf). The materials are:
- A wooden staircase
- Three wooden boards, the length will depend on the size of the ladder.
- A pot of paint or varnish of the color of their choice.
- Sand.
- A hammer.
- A brush.
- Brad, also depends on the size of the ladder and tables.
To make all we have to do is open the stairs at length to anchor and paint. Do the same with the tables, and when everything is dry, we decided the distance between step and step that will place the tables and keys (if you notice the nail polish applied on top), and soon have a new shelf that will bail out and that surely does not cost much.

Over time, wood floors are damaged and tarnished. However, with good polished and an appropriate procedure in a few steps, wooden floors and parquet flooring damaged or scratched can be easily recovered, reaching very good results.
The first instance at the time of recovery and renewal of a wood floor is the cleaning. At this point you should empty the room to be renovated. It should remove all the elements are there, pieces of furniture, curtains and carpets, as well as the tapes of the bases, by using a chisel.
In turn, they have to hide all the nails protruding from the ground, prior to thorough cleaning of the part using a vacuum cleaner over the entire surface. Then the surface can be sanded wooden floor if required, but only enough to restore.
Give damaged floor shine
Before we can fully restore the damaged floor, we recommend creating a complete sanding of the piece. Using an orbital sander, seek the total elimination of previous paint until the wood floor is opaque.
At the time of use of the sander, you may be required several passes, depending on this type of material directly from the soil. In the event that the apartment is of boards, we recommend sanding parallel to the direction of the boards. If has parquet or mosaic decorations should be sanded diagonally to the direction of the fiber.
After sanding, you should have cleaned up the room, before applying the glaze. The coats of varnish should be performed regularly, starting from the light, in order to identify bugs. After a few hours, sand the floor again with a size of 120 sanders. Then clean the whole floor again, before returning to pass a new coat of varnish.
