What is the Weight Limit?
Have used for a month and it is absolutely the most comfortable relaxing lounger we have ever had. Assembly was amazingly easy, it took less than 5 minutes to complete and the cushion just makes it feel like you are floating. My only suggestion would be to offer it in the same colors as their single orbital lounger. I read the other reviews and have had no problems at all....
Featuring a unique and comfortable design, this orbital patio lounge chair allows you to lean back comfortably. This lounge chair comes in a light tan and a unique metal stand that brings elegance and sophistication to your patio or your deck.

Rocking Chair
This chair was easy to put together, very comfortable, and surprisingly easy to get in and out of. It folds up for storage. And everyone loves it.Read More
Great for the whole family
Kids love this, cats love this -- very comfortable to lie in. Easy to put together.Read More
These things are amazing! They look like high end hotel lounge furnniture. When it says dual seater it def means you have to sit to one side or the other as there is a support bar that runs down the middle but they sit great! The cushions came out crazy wrinkled because they were vacuum sealed but Im hoping they will come out with time! Def a cool great deal though!!Read More
Positive Review
The lounger is super comfy! Easy to get in and out of. The only problem with it is that I can never get a turn to sit in it because everyone wants to sit in it! I just love it (with or without the padded cushion).Read More
Collapsed while sitting on it!
We've had the loveseat for a little less than a month, and we use it several times a week. Last night while we were sitting in it, there was a loud crack and the loveseat collapsed. The frame is metal but there are plastic connectors, the two under the center of the frame (you can see one in the photo near the foot of the loveseat where the two ellipses intersect) both cracked. There is a tag on the piece that says max 200kg, which is about 440 pounds. Our combined weight is 310 lbs. Fortunately, so far overstock's return procedure is excellent, and the return shipping will be at no cost to us, they are going to email return shipping labels to us. Unfortunately, we're not willing to try a replacement, we don't want to experience a collapsing loveseat again, and we can't recommend it. Too bad, a good idea, comfortable, cool design, looked close to the very flattering photo online.Read More
Great design but nothing for big people
It's made for two normal people, not for one big person. I will put another cushion to see if I could sit then comfortable in the middle where the metal frame is. With the cushion the item comes with it doesn't work. Too hard to sit in the middle, so it's better to stay on one side of the lounger. The frame part was delivered first, the cushion arrived today...weeks later...and I had to write plenty of emails to reclaim it's delivery. Finally the item is complete and I am happy to have it here.Read More
won't last more than a year in FL!
I bought two of these just over a year ago. One broke within the year and they replaced the PLASTIC junction fitting that holds the loops together. The second broke after the year so we have it strapped together and are hoping for the best! NOT worth the almost $600 paid, and NOT aluminum construction.Read More
Beware - Breaks after a few uses
Buyers beware, don't buy! Bought it since I loved the design and needed a double lounger for our patio. However: 1) It is quite difficult to assemble. You need a lot of strength in your hands plus a second pair of hands. 2) It breaks after a few uses and my kids got almost severely hurt when it collapsed all at a sudden. 3) The plastic joints are not durable. 4) Very poor manufacturer customer service. We never had more than one average sized adult or two toddlers in the lounger at the same time. We moved to a new home without a patio shortly after it arrived and we had it safely and dry in storage until we moved to a house with a yard again. We love in a very mild and rather dry climate - no excess moisture or heat or cold exposure.We just got it out on the patio and have used it a few times when it broke at four joints at the same time with a weight of less than 100 lbs on it. Customer service of the manufacturer - RedStarTraders - is very poor. I sent them pictures and explained the way we used it and all they had to say was that the warranty period of 1 year has expired. No spare parts available or any repair recommendations (the way it broke it most likely is irreparable anyway), no discount offer for a new unit.Read More
Uncomfortable for One Person - Built for Two
I purchased this chair for an overweight person and figured when he was not using it, I could curl up in it and enjoy taking long naps. Well, there is a bar that runs up through the middle of the chair, lengthwise from top to bottom. To be comfortable, you have to sit on one side or the other of this bar; else, you can feel it digging into your back, side, whatever. Plus, if you decide to forego the comfort factor and curl up across the bar anyway, the anti-gravity effect is off - in other words, it is extremely difficult to make the chair recline and/or rock when sitting on the bar in the middle of the chair. I believe another reviewer mentioned the chair was made for two, not one person, and that reviewer did not exaggerate. I'm disappointed the chair is constructed for use by two people and the bar in the middle of the chair makes it uncomfortable for one person to sit in the middle of the chair and relax. I do have two small dogs that love sitting on the other side of the chair with either my husband or myself; so, I'll keep it. It is rather large; so, one should plan on having enough space to accommodate its size. Other than that it does look good and should last well underneath a covered area. I believe the chair is upholstered in such a way that it can be used with or without the cushion that comes with it, which is probably a good thing since the cushion, if left in an uncovered area and rained on, probably would not last long.Read More

How to Choose a Chaise Lounge
When you're ready to relax in your own living room, it's time to consider a chaise lounge. A chaise lounge is a long chair designed to support your head and legs while you recline. A traditional lounge chair has either a low back that runs the length of the chair or no back at all.

FAQs about Chaise Furniture
When you're ready to give your living room an update, look to fresh furniture as a place to start. Living room furniture comes in many styles, and one at the front of the trends is chaise furniture. The best known of the chaise family, chaise lounges, is available in every color and fabric imaginable, so you can find the perfect chair for your home decor.
Best Rooms for a Chaise
When you want to relax and read a book or lounge in front of the fire, a chaise is the perfect piece of home furniture for the job. The soft, curved backrest and extended footrest on a chaise makes it the ideal location to simply sit back and relax. Plus, the curved shape and customary leather or fabric upholstery of a chaise lounge adds an extra level of comfort you can't get anywhere else.

Here are some ideas beyond the living room on how to spread the comfort.
How to Place Outdoor Furniture in the Garden
Well-placed outdoor furniture provides additional function and decoration to a garden. Chairs, chaise lounges, benches and hammocks, all nestled amongst blooming plants, create a delightful space for summertime relaxation. Patio tables and chairs can turn an unused section of yard into a warm-weather area for meals and socializing with friends. There are few hard and fast rules for placing outdoor furniture, and much is a matter of personal taste; however, patio furniture placement is always best when it is easy to access and kept on stable soil or patio surfaces.
Tips on Decorating with Throw Pillows
Throw pillows can bring together a room's color palette and design scheme, providing balance, elegance and visual interest to your home decor. Throw pillows can soften the look of a heavy leather sofa or add a punch of color to a wingback chair.

How to Choose Kitchen Seat Covers
Kitchen chair seat covers add comfort and style to any dining set.

Kitchen chair pads can even protect your dining chairs from scratches, scuffs and stains. When choosing chair pads for your kitchen chairs, you will consider fabric type, color and design, style and price. In addition, not all seat cushions are equal; some are reversible, while others offer additional non-slip security.
Running Shoes vs Walking Shoes
Walking shoes and running shoes might appear alike at first glance, but there are several key differences that set them apart. Both are designed specifically for their respective activities. Using walking shoes and running shoes interchangeably can lead to pain and injury because of a lack of support and cushioning in the necessary areas. The correct men's athletic shoes or women's athletic shoes for the activity leads to a more comfortable and efficient workout.
FAQs about Entryway Furniture
The entryway is often the first impression your home will make on guests, so selecting furniture to match decor and desired function is important.

Entryway furniture may range from a simple table or coat rack to storage units that double as benches. Below, you'll find answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about entryway furniture.

Best Sunroom Furnishing Ideas
Sunrooms are often some of the most popular areas of any home. Large windows and garden views make sunrooms feel like outdoor retreats while still providing the cover and warmth of indoor rooms. Because sunrooms are connected more to the outdoors than any other room in your home, pick design elements and furniture that work with that theme. Below, you'll find some of the best sunroom furnishing ideas. Seating: One of the most important parts of a sunroom is the seating arrangement. Since you'll likely want to spend many warm nights and bright days in your sunroom, you'll need adequate seating. Sunrooms typically feature either wood furniture or wrought iron seating. When deciding what's right for you, consider the overall look of the room as well as the intended comfort level. Wooden furniture with thick cushions is warmer and more comfortable than metal. A wicker sectional sofa with comfortable cushions will work well with the design of a sunroom. Alternatively, wrought iron benches and chairs give a modern look and feel to a room. Mismatched plush armchairs are a great way to bring both comfort and casual elegance to a sunroom. Tables: When picking out tables for your sunroom, consider how you're going to use the area. Choose a low table that can act as a coffee table for guests to set down their drinks. Tables with glass inserts match sunrooms well because of surrounding glass windows. Sunrooms are a popular place to go during parties and family get-togethers, so consider adding a small dining table and chairs to the room for meals. Design elements: Although sunrooms are indoors, they tie in the nature and wonder of the outdoors. Choose design elements that bring both sun and nature into the room. Wicker planters can hold plants of your choice. Place planters on side tables and on the floor next to entrances to give an inviting impression as guests enter the room. Artwork can change a bland sunroom into something charming and interesting. Look for paintings and sculptures that incorporate colors and themes from the surrounding decor.

Best Women's Pants for the Weekend
After a week of wearing professional clothes for work, dressing casually and comfortably for the weekend just requires a few pairs of women's pants. This does not mean you have to skimp on style. Whether you want to have a dinner out with friends or simply need to run errands, there are plenty of comfortable wardrobe options that do not involve T-shirts and sweatpants. Stay stylish during the weekend by choosing women's pants that fit and pairing them with accessories, blouses and shoes you already own. Wear khaki pants for almost every occasion. Khaki pants are perfect for weekend wear, especially if you want an alternative to jeans. Khaki pants are casual but still appear stylish and come in a variety of lengths. Cropped khaki pants hit at about mid-calf, and capris fall just below the knee. The most flattering style is straight-leg because it gives khakis the appearance of being well-fitted and works with any type of shoe. Find the perfect pair of jeans. Jeans are the ultimate pants for the weekend. Comfortable and versatile, women's jeans come in a variety of washes and colors to go with anything in the wardrobe. Cuts like wide-leg, low-rise, boot-cut and straight-leg allow women of any size and body shape to find a pair of jeans that fit well. While women's jeans may be considered casual, pairing them with heels or wedge shoes and a loose-fitting blouse or sweater can create a more formal or put-together look. To keep jeans casual on the weekend, pair them with flats and a knitted top. Stay comfortable in velour pants. If you prefer to lounge the weekend away or just run a few errands, velour pants are soft and can be worn year-round. Velour pants often come in sets with zip-up hoodies, giving you a simple option for weekend wear. These pants come in a variety of colors, often include pockets and offer a simple drawstring waistband for comfort. Velour pants are also great for working out, so you can easily wear them throughout the day before a trip to the gym or outdoor activity.

Mass producing pocket laboratoriesOctober 2, 2013 9:24 am | News | Comments
There is certainly no shortage of lab-on-a-chip devices, but in most cases manufacturers have not yet found a cost-effective way to mass produce them. Scientists are now developing a platform for series production of these pocket laboratories. The first major step is moving away from the usual injection molding or wet chemical processing techniques in favor of roll-to-roll processing.
Grant opens new dimension in printing: 4-DOctober 1, 2013 2:02 pm | News | Comments
With a $855,000 grant from the U.S. Army Research Office, a trio of university researchers is proposing the development a new printing technology that adds a fourth dimension. By manipulating materials at the micro- and nanoscale dimensions, they hope to develop printable structures that can exhibit behavior that changes over time.
"Sticky tape" for water droplets mimics rose petalSeptember 17, 2013 2:05 pm | News | Comments
A new nanostructured material with applications that could include reducing condensation in airplane cabins and enabling certain medical tests without the need for high tech laboratories has been developed by researchers in Australia. The newly discovered material uses "raspberry" particles, which emulate the structure of some rose petals and can trap tiny water droplets.
Robohand uses 3-D printing to replace lost digitsSeptember 11, 2013 10:50 am | by Carley Petesch, Associated Press | News | Comments
Richard Van As, a South African carpenter, lost four fingers from his right hand to a circular saw two years ago. He was unable to afford the tens of thousands of dollars to get a myoelectric hand, which detects a muscle's electric impulses to activate an artificial limb. He decided to build his own hand, made from cables, screws and thermoplastic, using only the Internet and a 3-D printer. He has since fitted 170 people with Robohands.
Interlocking segments might be 3-D printed, assembled into partsSeptember 11, 2013 10:46 am | News | Comments
Purdue Univ. researchers are working with the U.S. Army Research Laboratory to develop a technology for creating parts out of interlocking segments produced using 3-D printing to repair vehicles and other equipment in the field. The Purdue portion of the research focuses on clever, Lego-like building blocks called "topologically interlocking structures".
DNA glue directs tiny gel "bricks" to self-assembleSeptember 9, 2013 11:39 am | by Dan Ferber, Wyss Institute Communications | News | Comments
A team of researchers at Harvard Univ. has found a way to self-assemble complex structures out of gel "bricks" smaller than a grain of salt. The new method could help solve one of the major challenges in tissue engineering: creating injectable components that self-assemble into intricately structured, biocompatible scaffolds at an injury site to help regrow human tissues.
Cheaper Chinese solar panels are not due to low-cost laborSeptember 5, 2013 9:29 am | News | Comments
A study of the photovoltaic industries in the U.S. and China shows that China's dominance in solar panel manufacturing is not driven solely by cheaper labor and government support, but by larger-scale manufacturing and resulting supply-chain benefits. Researchers say a balance could be achieved through future innovations in crystalline solar cell technology.
Laser spectroscopy helps measure progress in nanotech designSeptember 4, 2013 11:24 am | News | Comments
Measuring the band offset faced by electrons jumping from one material to another is a key component of a nanoscale design process because it guides redesign and prototyping. Current methods don't work on the nanoscale, however. Using laser-induced current in a nanowire device and its dependence on the wavelength of the laser, a team at Drexel Univ. devised a new method to derive the band offset.
Ion thruster: A new idea for nanosatellite micro-rocketsSeptember 3, 2013 8:10 am | by Marcia Goodrich, MTU | News | Comments
Though nanosatellites already borrow several components, including cameras and radios, from terrestrial gadgets, propulsion systems have to be built from scratch.

Chemical engineers' research may lead to inexpensive, flexible solar cellsAugust 22, 2013 8:46 am | News | Comments
Most solar cells today are inorganic and made of crystalline silicon. These cells tend to be expensive, rigid and relatively inefficient when it comes to converting sunlight into electricity. Work by a team of chemical engineers at Penn State Univ. and Rice Univ. may lead to a new class of inexpensive organic solar cells, one that skips difficult-to-scale fullerene acceptors and relies on molecular self-assembly instead.
A durable, bacteria-killing surface for hospitalsAugust 20, 2013 12:13 pm | News | Comments
Scientists at Switzerland have developed a new method for making antimicrobial surfaces that can eliminate bacteria under a minute. The breakthrough relies on a new sputtering technique that uses a highly ionized plasma to, for the first time, deposit antibacterial titanium oxide and copper films on 3-D polyester surfaces. This promotes the production of free radicals, which are powerful natural bactericides.
Making a mini Mona LisaAugust 6, 2013 12:09 pm | News | Comments
The world's most famous painting has now been created on the world's smallest canvas. Researchers at the Georgia Institute of Technology have "painted" the Mona Lisa on a substrate surface approximately 30 micrometers in width—or one-third the width of a human hair. The team's creation, the "Mini Lisa," demonstrates a technique that could potentially be used to achieve nanomanufacturing of devices.

Technology could bring high-end solar to the massesJuly 25, 2013 8:19 am | by Sarah Yang, UC Berkeley | News | Comments
Researchers in California have demonstrated that indium phosphide, a III-V compound, can be grown on thin sheets of metal foil in a process that is faster and cheaper than traditional methods, yet still comparable in optoelectronic characteristics. Indium phosphide is among the high-performance solar converter, but has been up to 10 times as expensive as silicon to integrate in photovoltaic cells.
Environmentally friendly battery made from woodJuly 24, 2013 12:01 pm | News | Comments
Taking inspiration from trees, scientists have developed a battery made from a sliver of wood coated with tin that shows promise for becoming a tiny, long-lasting, efficient and environmentally friendly energy source. The device, developed at the Univ. of Maryland, is 1,000 times thinner than a sheet of paper.
Direct nitrogen fixation could allow low-cost energy conversionJuly 24, 2013 10:15 am | News | Comments
Fixation processes free up nitrogen atoms from their diatomic form, but nitrogen does not easily react with other chemicals to form new compounds. Researchers in South Korea have invented a simple and eco-friendly method of creating nitrogen-doped graphene nanoplatelets that simultaneously facilitates the nitrogen-fixation process and creates useful tools for building dye-sensitized solar cells and fuel cells.
New technology prevents degradation of silicon PV modulesJuly 23, 2013 8:23 am | News | Comments
Diffusion of sodium ions from the glass substrate is thought to be the primary cause of potential-induced degradation (PID) in crystalline silicon photovoltaic cells. A research institute and metals company in Japan have partnered to develop a thin film solution. The titanium oxide-based composite metal compound they have developed is inexpensive to produce and highly scalable.
Two-in-one: New material could enable low-cost polymer LEDs, solar cellsJuly 22, 2013 9:26 am | News | Comments

Born in Dalry, George Houston was educated at Saltcoats Public School and Glasgow School of Art. During his life he painted many pictures of his native Ayrshire, including a few of Saltcoats harbour. He was a prolific landscape painter, using both oil and watercolour.
According to the Royal Scottish Academy's eulogy on his death Houston's landscapes were, 'amongst the finest landscapes produced in Scotland'. Houston had a life-long passion for fishing which influenced his choice of painting grounds – Ayrshire, Argyll and Iona were his favourites, with occasional depictions of other areas of Scotland. Sadly, the area this painting depicts remains unknown.

Sea level rise due to global warming has already doubled the annual risk of coastal flooding of historic proportions across widespread areas of the United States, according to a new report from Climate Central.
Nearly four million Americans, occupying a combined area larger than the state of Maryland, find themselves at risk of severe flooding as sea levels rise in the coming century.

Public sector Hindustan Copper, the only vertically integrated copper company with captive mines, is mulling a divestment of around 20 per cent. It is already a listed company with a public shareholding of less than five per cent and is engaged in mining, beneficiation, smelting and refining.
The company had proposed the divestment plan to its parent Ministry, sources told The Hindu. When contacted, HCL Chairman-cum-Managing Director Shakeel Ahmed refused to comment, merely saying: "This is one of the options that are being explored for the company."
He said HCL needed investment of Rs. 3,900 crore by 2017-18 in the three regions that it was operating. The needs of the eastern sector, where HCL has some of its oldest mines in Jharkhand, is the highest at Rs. 1,800 crore, followed by the central sector where HCL has operation at Malanjkhand in Madhya Pradesh and a conversion unit at Taloja in Maharashtra which needs Rs. 1,500 crore, while the western sector comprising the mines in Rajasthan which requires Rs. 600 crore.
Mr Ahmed said that while this was the capital requirement for HCL, the routes of raising funds might be a mix of service contracts and risk-sharing agreements, besides internal accruals.
HCL is now executing the service contract for its Surda mines in Jharkhand through Australian company Monarch Gold Mining. Besides mining primary copper, HCL makes copper cathodes, wire rods and bars and continuous cast rods.

from the San Francisco Chronicle
When three U.S. astronomers won the Nobel Prize in physics last year, for discovering that the expansion of the universe was speeding up in defiance of cosmic gravity--as if change fell out of your pockets onto the ceiling--it reaffirmed dark energy, the glibly named culprit behind this behavior, as the great cosmic surprise and mystery of our time.
And it underscored the case, long urged by U.S. astronomers, for a NASA mission to measure dark energy--to determine, for example, whether the cosmos would expand forever or whether, perhaps, there might be something wrong with our understanding of gravity.
In 2019, a spacecraft known as Euclid will begin such a mission to study dark energy. But it is being launched by the European Space Agency, not NASA, with U.S. astronomers serving only as very junior partners, contributing $20 million and some infrared sensors.

Cosmic rays have mysterious qualities about them that scientists continue to research in order to better understand their origins and composition. Dr. Eun-Suk Seo, a professor of physics at the University of Maryland, and her colleagues, fly enormous balloons as large as a football stadium and a volume of 40-million-cubic feet for extended periods over Antarctica to study particles coming from cosmic rays before they break up in the atmosphere.

LETTERS: NCT, Nov. 3, 2010
Mary Froese
Paradise lost
As a student in Mrs. Angarola's second-grade class (1963, Magnolia Elementary School), we often had to practice "duck and cover." In those days, our only enemy was the "Commies."
Now, a new threat has come to Carlsbad: the "disenfranchised" American (Lee Harvey Oswald type). With the shooting at Kelly Elementary School, it is a clear sign anarchy has arrived in Carlsbad, and yet our laid-back sybaritic culture ignores yet another sign that we need to ascertain what in our dysfunctional/politically correct society is driving these spooky dudes to snap.
Carlsbad children were shot by this disturbed American and where were the Carlsbad police? The attacker was stopped by construction workers. He was armed with a .357-caliber Magnum. I know that God takes care of children and fools, but our city leaders need to be prepared to fill in for the Almighty from time to time. Finally, I remember the ineptitude of the Los Angeles Police Department in the Rodney King riots. We need to ascertain if our police department has the right stuff to handle this threat to the sanctity of our community and take proactive measures to ensure these acts of random violence never happen again.

A quick start
How to immediately reduce government spending, create millions of jobs and reduce unemployment: It is a simple three-step process.
First, make the Bush tax cuts permanent, except for the top two percent of taxpayers who will pay the increase for one year only.
Two, repeal the onerous red-tape and restrictive requirements imposed upon small businesses by this administration.
Third, terminate, within 60 days, unemployment benefits being paid to those who have been unemployed for in excess of 26 weeks.

A failure of the U.S. version of multiculturalism
In the Oct. 18 edition of the North County Times, Angela Merkel, the leader of Germany, gave the opinion that multiculturalism was a failure in her country ("Merkel: German multiculturalism 'utterly failed'").
In the Oct. 19 edition, the NCT ran an Associated Press story about a Latino winemaker, Mr. Reynaldo Robledo, who bottles 20,000 cases of wine a year in Sonoma ("Latino winemakers still rare but finding success") .
Mr. Robledo is 59 years old, coming to the U.S. at age 16. After 43 years in this country, he spoke to the interviewer, Olivia Munoz, in Spanish. I consider this a failure of the U.S. version of multiculturalism.
After 43 years in this country, the gentleman obviously has no intention of being part of this country, other than to take advantage of the economic opportunities. One of those opportunities was to have as many children as he and his wife apparently wanted — nine, according to the article, and 17 grandchildren, all living within 15 minutes of each other. Mexican art hangs in the tasting room, and a menu from the White House that featured one of his wines.
If we are a melting pot, obviously the heat hasn't been set high enough. Is this a sign of success of our system, or replanting the flag of a foreign country?

Welcome to Thursday! Today on Before & After Basics we'll tackle the process of refreshing tired wood with oil. While this is not a process I do on a weekly basis in the studio, it is great knowledge to have for the antique gems in my home. "What?" you ask, "not everything in your house is painted?" Nope! It's all about the mixture my friends! Are you ready to get started? Let's do this thing! — Barb

CLICK HERE for the full how-to after the jump!
- Murphy's Oil soap
- Watco Teak Oil
- Howard Feed-N-Wax
- fine sand paper (super fine can be used, as well)
- lint-free rags
1. Map out the "trouble" areas on your piece, such as stains, water damage, ink and scuff marks and sand them lightly. When working with wood, always remember to sand with the grain. If you start sanding like a crazy person, you will ruin your finish!
2. When you're done sanding, clean the piece with Murphy's Oil soap. This gets all the dirt, dust and grime off the piece and leaves a nice, clean surface for you to work with.
3. Apply the Watco Teak Oil. Soak your rag and rub the entire piece down. Wait 10 minutes and with a clean rag, wipe off the excess oil. Depending on how thirsty the wood is, you can do two or three coats of the oil. One of the great things about using oil to refresh furniture is that it restores the color and grain and seals the finish from the inside out.
4. When you're done oiling and the piece is dry to the touch, you're ready for the final step. Apply the Howard Feed-N-Wax generously with a rag and after about 20 minutes, wipe off any excess.
I referred to this article over at The Brick House. All images and project information are run courtesy of, and with the permission of, The Brick House. You can see more of this beautiful home here!
You now have a piece of beautifully refreshed wood! Aren't you proud?!
See you all next week!
I really hope this piece finds its way to my entry way
does the teak oil leave a stain on the wood? i have a night stand that has some water rings that i would love to get out but i don't want to change the color finish on the wood. This seams easy enough for me to try. i was afraid i was going to need a professional to fix the top of my piece! thanks barb
The dresser is awesome, but really, i'm more interested in that kick-ass chair. THAT needs to be in my living room. I feel comfortable just looking at it.
um, i'm mean, that chair is very cool (sorry for the profanity, but it was a visceral response to the awesomeness).
Great tip! I have a table that really needs this treatment. Thanks!
We just installed an antique door in our home that needs to be refinished. I wasn't sure how to go about it, but this sounds great! No smelly varnish.
Thanks for these instructions! I have a side table that desperately needs attention, but I haven't taken the time to search out how yet.
i have a chair that i sanded and stripped then used howard restor-a-finish. i then used the feed-n-wax in three coats. but i can't seem to get the shiny luster that my other teak pieces have. can you help?
Very helpful information! I used to use steel wool to refresh dinged-up finishes on wood, but read that the steel fibers can get embedded in the wood and may eventually rust and stain the wood! I don't know if it's true, but I'd rather not risk it. I'll try this oil/Howard method, instead!
Thank you for the information !
I have a table I (cough) borrowed from my parents. It is made of an exotic wood I can't identify. Trouble is, I've made a stain that won't go away and has taken the colored varnish away. The wood is intact, but discolored.
Can I refresh the wood like you suggested, and find the same color again ? Am I doomed to do the whole table ?
Great instructions, I've always wondered how to do this!
Thank you so much! I recently found this amazing little retro night stand on the sidewalk in desperate need of a finish – I appreciate the step-by-step instructions.
Hooray for The Brick House! Morgan has a ton of great pieces :)
I am in love with that chair. What kind is it?
Turns out she has given away that chair to replace it with the Womb chair. Check out her blog. I subscribe so I'm always in the know.
Thank you! I need to do this on my dining set and really didn't know how to go about it.
I totally understand why you recommend specific brands you are comfortable with, but for those of us not in the US can you tell us what makes a specific soap or wax or oil suitable for this job, so we know what to look out for when buying equivalent brands overseas? thanks.
last weekend i followed morgan's advice to spruce up a dresser i bought from ebay – brilliant results! and so easy. (from memory, that chair cost her $10!!)
I have been trying to figure out how to fix up my dresser that has gotten a little messed up over the years. I don't want to strip it and start over. My only concern is that the wood is very dark, pretty much black. Would this process work for that, or would the finish be messed up?
I've been using linseed oil; it works okay. Never seen this wax before but will look into it. I also love that chair!
Is the Watco Teak Oil similar to Danish Oil? Is it waterproof?
I've JUST started messing with wood refinshing. This is EXACTLY what I needed!
Thanks a Million DS!
Thank goodness. Here is someone who doesn't think yellow, white or aqua paint is the only answer. I love your room, you have real taste.
I enjoyed this article when I first read it on the_brick_house website. Rubbing alcohol can also be used to clean veneer pieces, but paint stripper should not be used on veneer (unless you want to strip it off).
Hi Guys,
Just a quick note- I double checked with Morgan and she gave Barb permission to run both the images and project in this post. We would never knowingly run home images or content ideas from someone else's site without permission.
Hey all,
Yup, I'm with Grace – totally gave permission. No worries.
Get to oiling! It's awesome.
I have got to try this on my scandinavian buffet that needs a makeover. Hope this works.
I have a similar dresser drawer out of teak but a piece of the wood is broken off on one of the drawers. (I don't have the missing piece, as the drawer is very old). Are there any recommendations to how to fix this? Can I glue on another price of wood and patch it up?
I was over at TBH just the other day & saw this. I wanted to ask about clean up afterward.
My Father-in-Law told me of cases where rags used for teak oil have burst into flame after disposal. Is this possible & how do we dispose of the rags properly?
Thanks for the great article, can't wait to get started! XXxx.
really beautiful post and blog…
bex, here is a great article about disposal of oily rags : http://homerepair.about.com/od/safehometips/ss/store_flam_rags.htm. You do have to be careful to keep them airtight and safe. If you are going to re use your rags , the important thing to note is to lay them flat so they dry completely and then store them in an airtight container.
leah, if you are planning on leaving it in its wooden state and want it to look seamless, I would look up someone in your area who does restoration work and take the drawer to them for examination. I have a great guy here locally that is a third generation furniture guy, and he is great about projects like this. It can be saved!
john, yes teak oil and danish oil are similar products, and as far as being waterproof….I have read several articles on teak oil and it does say that it makes your furniture water repellent. I do feel like even though it creates a water repellent barrier you would still need to be careful about prolonged moisture on the surface , just like any wooden piece of furniture.
heather, these oils have a little bit of color, but should not alter the overall color of the piece besides making the finish look fresh and new. I do recommend not just doing parts of the piece, but the entire piece with the oil, and if you are not sure about it I would test in in a hidden area to see what you think.
kate, i totally understand! sorry about that. These products are pretty much staples for refinishing and refreshing wood, so look for 1. a good wood cleaning product that will not leave a waxy residue on your piece, and then look for teak oil in any brand that you have there. If you stop by a wood finishing shop or antique shop in your area where they specialize in refinishing furniture they should be able to help you with the products in your area.
loora, oh dear my friend! the teak oil will refresh the wood….while not completely taking the stain away it will diminish it greatly to where it is not noticeable. I do recommend using the oil on the entire piece to get a nice uniform look. Good luck!
brie, I'm not sure about the details of your project, so I don't know how to direct you. The answer could be in the wax step. sometimes when the wax is applied in multiple coats it can get "cloudy". I would see if maybe buffing it out some more would bring the sheen back.
sarah, the oil does have a natural color to it, and while not changing the color of the wood… it will make it appear a little darker… like in morgan's before and after picture in this post…..because the finish is fresh and new. It will be perfect to use on the water stains that you have, but if you are not sure…I would test in a hidden spot to see if you like it.
I have a credenza that has veneer. It is obviously not a high quality antique but I love it all the same. It may just need to be painted but I'd like to know what my options are for "refinishing" it… or just cleaning it. I would like it to look nice but some of the veneer has broken off in places and there are rings on the surface. Do you have any suggestions on how to make it look more appealing? I may just need to paint it? You should definitely do a post on repurposing furniture with veneer :) THANKS, BARB!
Yes, a Post on removing and re-applying wood veneer would be Awesome! A lot of the modern furniture from the '60s is solid wood with a veneer over it. Learning about how to fix the chips in these pieces without just filling and painting would be great.
I've used tung oil in this same way. Are there advantages to using teak oil instead?
This is a fabulous post with great information. Thanks so much, we have several vintage pieces that could use a bit of help!
Thanks so much Barb! XXxx.
Full disclosure, this question isn't 100% related to this post but, this morning I took on the project of refinishing my kitchen table. Spent forever sanding and then as soon as I put the stain on I realized that I didn't get all of the old stain off and there's some splotchiness. Now I'm wondering if I can sand those areas down and restain once the table is dry? Or is there another way to fix it? Or am I out of luck?
This is so great, thank you!
kate, boo! that is not a fun situation! in my experience you will need to sand it back down and re stain, because there is no way to get it even again. I'm sorry! I wish I had better news for you, but it will be worth it in the end!
Siona, teak oil and tung oil are very similar, but here is a great article you can read about the differences : http://www.ehow.com/about_5525448_teak-oil-vs-tung-oil.html
Amanda, depending on the damage to the veneer and how much you want to spend on repair, you can take it to someone who can replace the veneer for you and get them to make it all brand new! You can also try the method discussed in this post because even though it cannot help the missing veneer issues, it can help with the rings and you may find that you like it more after it has been refreshed with oil. If neither of those options pan out, you can definitely paint it! Use wood filler to fill the missing veneer parts, prime then paint and you will have a brand new piece to love!
Barb, I am refinishing a very old and very dry secretary desk. I stripped it and would like to restain it. Can or should I oil it before I apply the stain and how? Thanks:)
celeste, I hope I am not too late in replying to this! I would not oil it before you stain it. The oil will keep the stain from going on smoothly., and create a barrier. You want your surface to be super smooth and even so that it will take the stain evenly.
Hi Barb, I have a buffet that needs work. I did this process step by step but realized the wood has a wax or some kind of finish over the wood so, it did not really change the look. Does that make sense? Do I need to completely strip it and re-stain it? Thanks. I really enjoy your information!
Hi Barb,
I'm wondering if I can use lemon oil in place of wax. I recently bought a solid wood sideboard on craigslist that is in a slightly better condition as the one in the picture. I got lemon oil, polyurethane wood finish, and Murphy's soap. Do I still need teak oil and wax? And do I need to use the wood finish?
Thanks for this article!!
I just bought 4 teak danish dining chairs that need a little tlc. Would this process work on those chairs?? They are dull & scratched, and I think there is a light finish on them…is ok to go over the finish or will i ruin these chairs?? …I guess what I mean is this isnt just for raw wood correct??
I have a dresser that is beautiful that I am looking forward to fixing up with this process. Thanks!
Couple of questions: 1. I understand that you need to cover the whole piece in the oil but do you also need to sand the entire piece? Seems like you would need to in order to have the same look/finish over the entire piece. 2. When you say lint free rags are you talking about just plain cotton rags or the "sticky" rags (cant remember the name brand) ?
Modern-day living area furnishings are the right mix of styling. Nice piece of work. Keep it up!!

By Catholic Online (NEWS CONSORTIUM)
6/6/2014 (9 months ago)
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
The news will come as a boon to parents who lack housekeeping skills. An overly clean home, may in fact, be bad for children. Doctors say that sterile environments, free of everyday bacteria could lessen a child's immune system, making them more susceptible for allergies.
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - Medical authorities say that infants are much less likely to suffer from allergies or wheezing if they are exposed to household bacteria and allergens from rodents, roaches and cats during their first year of life.
The study came as a complete shock to researchers. Earlier studies had previously found an increased risk of asthma among inner-city dwellers exposed to high levels of roach, mouse and pet droppings and allergens.
Starvation never takes a vacation --
"What we found was somewhat surprising and somewhat contradictory to our original predictions," study co-author Dr. Robert Wood says. The chief of the Division of Allergy and Immunology at the Johns Hopkins Children's Center in Baltimore, Wood says "It turned out to be completely opposite -- the more of those three allergens you were exposed to, the less likely you were to go on to have wheezing or allergy."
It was discovered that about 41 percent of allergy-free and wheeze-free children in the study grew up in homes that were rich with allergens and bacteria. By contrast, only eight percent of children who suffered from both allergy and wheezing had been exposed to these substances in their first year of life.
The theory entitled "hygiene hypothesis" holds that children in overly clean houses are more apt to suffer allergies because their bodies don't have the opportunity to develop appropriate responses to allergens.
"The environment appears to play a role, and if you have too clean of an environment the child's immune system is not going to be stimulated," Dr. Todd Mahr, an allergist-immunologist in La Crosse, Wisconsin says. The chair of the American Academy of Pediatrics' Section on Allergy & Immunology, Mahr alluded to the fact that prior research has shown that children who grow up on farms have lower allergy and asthma rates. This is possibly explained due to their regular exposure to bacteria and microbes, the researchers noted in background material.
Childhood allergies are an ongoing problem in the United States. As many as half of all 3-year-olds in the U.S. suffer from wheezing illnesses.
Recurrent wheezing and allergies are considered a risk factor for asthma in later life. According to the American Lung Association, asthma remains one of the most common pediatric illnesses, affecting about seven million American children.
