How to Help a Proud Person

post from How to of the Day on 24 April 2011 10:00:00 PM. © How to of the Day

Many of us have people in our lives who need help one way or another. They could be our friends, our colleagues, our spouses, our relatives, our brothers and sisters and even our parents. And, of course, if these people do matter in our lives, we want to try our best to help them. But how do we help them when they are too proud to ask or accept our help?

Studio Bed Solution

post from IKEA Hackers on 24 April 2011 03:33:35 PM. © IKEA Hackers

Materials: Mandal Bed Frame and Mattress

Description: We designed the project based on an idea in the NY Times about a Cube in a loft apartment. The designer used the basic idea, but applied it to a studio without a high ceiling.

To keep the cost lower than starting from scratch we used an IKEA bed frame. We also wanted to have extra storage and the Mandal has drawer space in the frame.

Step one: my carpenter built a frame on to the Mandal structure using pre-painted and finished lumber. The frame includes shelves made from poplar wood. We left the shelves unpainted, but added a coat of white paint to the entire upper structure to match the Mandal storage drawers.

Step two: We added nine wheels to the Mandal to make the entire structure mobile. The wheels are from Coolcastors.com. Nine wheels were necessary for each part of the Mandal that was load-bearing. The wheels can be locked easily with fingers or with a gentle push from the toes.

Step three: We added a plastic material to the exterior from Piedmont Plastics. The material is polycarbonate plastic. We chose green and blue as more soothing colors.

Steps four and five: are yet to be completed. A headboard will be added with a material not yet chose covering it. Also a drop-down desk will be added to the structure that will allow a person to sit on the bed and use it or outside the structure to use it while sitting on a chair. Remote controlled battery operate lights are also planned.

Goddess wardrobe by PAX

post from IKEA Hackers on 24 April 2011 12:33:20 PM. © IKEA Hackers

Materials: PAX, wood, drill ,curtain rod,curtain, wall plugs and screws

Description: I loved the PAX wardrobe range but it was too expensive and not big enough.

Plus I hate having sliding doors on my wardrobe as you can't see all the clothes at once.

So I set about my challenge

1. I measured the height and width of my space.

2. I listed my requirements e.g. whether I need more long hanging space or short hanging space.

3. The PAX hanging rails come in 3 sizes 50cm, 75cm or 100cm so I divide my space using these measurements.

4. I bought two pieces of wooden melamine panels and four wooden battens that were all up to ceiling height.

5. I screw the battens to the wall (after pre-drilling and installing wall plugs) and slid the wooden melamine panels in-between.

6. I then used the pax wardrobe rails to create the storage.

and voila, it was done!

I completed my design by installing a full curtain track across the front and adding some beautiful full length voile curtains for the Goddess effect!

How to Draw Manga Female Eyes

Drawing female manga-influenced eyes is really easy, but, like anything takes a bit of practice to perfect. It helps to have sharp pencils, a good eraser and good paper. It will probably help to have a clear desk with plenty of space and, optionally, your favourite manga to refer to for eye shapes.
