Aromatherapy For Your Walls

For a relaxing retreat try making a scented wax paste to seal your beautiful wall finishes. Beeswax offers a warm patina and a durable finish.

Place 2 oz. of beeswax in a low glass jar. Place the jar in a pan of hot water over a low heat. After the wax has melted, remove the jar from the pan and stir in 3 oz. of natural citrus thinner. After this is well mixed, gently stir in ¼ tsp. of aroma-therapeutic oil such as rosemary, lavender, or peppermint. Set the mixture aside to cool to a wax paste. Apply the wax with a lint-free cloth and buff to a beautiful patina.

Caution: wax is flammable, heat over a low flame; also, keep the room well ventilated when pouring the natural citrus thinner into the melted wax.

Enjoy your peaceful space!

Gorgeous Cabinetry that’s easy on the environment and fits your budget!

Decorate with a “green” flair! Save money and minimize your environmental impact by renewing and reusing your kitchen cabinets. Additional molding will reshape the profile and façade of your cabinets. After any necessary repairs are made and the cabinets have been properly cleaned and prepared, milk paint and glazes can add additional beauty. Milk paint is natural, has no voc’s (volatile organic compounds), is easy on the environment, highly durable, authentic (milk paint has been used for thousands of years), and is available in an array of beautiful colors.

After the milk paint has been lightly sanded and buffed, it can be polished and sealed with natural beeswax. Renewing your kitchen cabinets is a great way to improve the beauty, value, and functionality of your kitchen. Reusing your kitchen cabinets is cost effective and greatly reduces waste and your carbon footprint!
