Last year I found a wooden table on the street in the worst shade of cheap wood stain. I walked past it twice on my way to the market, and then I turned back around. After a few coats of paint, the table is now one of my favorite pieces in my apartment. Here are more ideas for salvaging a sidewalk find using graphic stenciled numbers. N.B. Want more graphic inspiration? Check out Diane Keaton's fab Pinterest board. Above: Amsterdam-based Uxus Design used a variety of stencils on the picnic tables of the Nike canteen from DIY: Stenciled Picnic Tables. Above: A table made from recycled wood is stenciled in white text by architect Katja Buchholz at Lokal in Berlin, Germany. Above: Swedish designer Anna Malin spelled out E-A-T in black paint on her table top, spotted on Decor 8. Above: A stenciled table at Merci in Paris.

A rinsing bowl that has a strainer is different from just a strainer, right? Right. This bowl has a strainer ‘side’ that folds out to catch your pasta/fruit/veggies, so you can rinse and then strain out the water all in one bowl. Sort of smart, isn’t it? Also available in red and green/avocado. Designers: Helen T. Miller / Jordan Murphy

Materials: Bedside rast Description: I've assembled 2 Rast bedside tables. I place them on their side and put one against the other creating 2 big cabinets and one narrower in the middle. On the left cabinet I inserted some compensated shelves. On the right side I added a door creating a pantry and on the other side I built a frame where I glued a clear plastic sheet which is the oven door. The back of the cabinet is made by a compensated base where I laid a wooden bar to hang the kitchen tools. It is all being painted with water colours. It has a real bargain tap. Total price approximately €30.00. ~ ErikaMore hacks on IKEAHackers.net

We just received these beautiful one of a kind wooden baskets at our Flagship Store in Copenhagen, and we’re completely in love. The baskets are designed by the Spanish design company PCM Design and each basket has its own unique color gradient. PCM Design explains the special technique used to craft the baskets on their website: “Using a specially constructed machine, an estimated 97-metre-long oak-veneer-strip is slowly glued and coiled up around a wooden base to form a basket. During its production, a marker draws onto the wooden veneer and continuously fades out, leaving a colour gradient on the basket. From very intense colouring at the base to just a hint of the marker at rest, each basket represents all intensities of one colour.” Check out the video below to see the production in action. 97 metre veneer – high res from PCM design on Vimeo. The baskets are available in two different sizes with a Diameter of 29,5 cm or 36 cm and comes in several different colors. If you’re curious to know more about PCM Design you can visit their website right here.
