This is perfect for coffee tables, dining room or living room furniture. It does not need as much care because it will not be exposed to sunlight.

  • Pass a clean cloth: To remove the remains of the varnish, when the first layer is dry, wipe with a soft cloth.
  • Apply the following layer: This must be very fine, try not to overload it too much, since lumps can remain and affect the varnish. This layer is left to dry for a minimum of 24 hours and is sanded to give it the final touch.

Varnish the wood and make sure to protect the finish

After varnishing the wood it is important to protect it so that the product does not fall off. Over the years, wood can deteriorate and this will depend on its use. For example, if it is a table that will be used a lot, it is recommended that a glass be adapted to the surface to protect the work that you have done with so much effort.

How to take advantage of a free room: tricks, tips and much more.

How to take advantage of a free room It is a question that many of us ask ourselves. For the same reason, today Facades World We will share some tips to make the most of it. Do not move from the screen because you are in the right place... Let's start!

Many times, in our home there is a free room and we do not know what to do with it. The empty space is not very conspicuous, so we will tell you how to take advantage of a free room if you have one at home. You will find various options, from an area for guests, games or work.

Vacant room? Find out how to take advantage of it

Free room for guests

If you receive many visitors or have an extended family, take advantage of a spare room. This can be turned into a beautiful room for entertaining in a few easy steps. Whether your empty space is large or small, with a good bed, a rug, a chest of drawers, and a few accessories, it's ready to be occupied.

Even if you are thinking of renovating your main room, do not think about giving away or selling your old belongings, put them in your spare room.

Wood takes a leading role in this 2022.

Turn it into a game room

In the spare room a games room could be adapted very well. It is a valid option when you have children or if you are a video game fan. In the case of little ones, they often leave their toys lying around in their bedrooms, which recharges them a lot. To put an end to this discomfort, take that free space and move the play area. Place a few organizers and, little by little, teach them to be organized without affecting their rest space.

Now, for the older ones, install consoles and a comfortable sofa, or a desk with a comfortable chair to play on the computer. Either way, your old spare room will be the perfect place to spend quality time with the family.

Maybe it can be your study or home office

This free space gives you the perfect opportunity to build your own studio or private work site. In the market we find various furniture, chairs and tables specially designed to organize a study that adapts to the needs. The idea is that the free room is a private, quiet and concentrated space where you can carry out your work, university or school duties.

Closet for clothes

If you have an empty room, a lot of clothes and little space in the bedroom, take advantage of it and make a giant closet. Sometimes, the free room is very close to the main bedroom, so it would be a good idea to have this additional space to design the wardrobe of your dreams.

A custom library

home libraries

To find out how to take advantage of a free room and turn it into a giant library, all you have to do is install some shelves and furniture to accommodate the books. This idea can even complement the work study, but if you can divide them, it is much better.

This space will turn the empty space into an innovative room suitable for being seduced by literature. You can use it alone, with your partner, your children or your pets. Just imagine it and add a delicious cup of coffee.

Turn it into a warehouse

When there is a free room in the house, it can be used perfectly as a cellar. This space can be used to store things that have little use and that create clutter in the house.

The empty room can be used as a storage area for all the things that are no longer used, but that you need to save for different reasons. Of course, try to keep everything in order with the support of shelves and organizers.

What if you rent it?

As a last idea, we suggest that this free room be suitable to be able to rent it to someone you know. This, if you are not satisfied with any of the ideas mentioned.

This idea is interesting because you will be able to take economic advantage of an empty area. To develop this idea you can choose between two options: furnish it and then rent it or rent it totally free so that the tenant organizes his belongings as he likes and feels comfortable. After all, he will live in the room.

This being the case, in this case it is about renewing these tubes and raising their aesthetics so that they match the rest of the Home Decoration. This will make these elements look bad to make your spaces look more aesthetic, pleasant and well thought out.

However, this is not an option that fits all flats or houses. Because, why the pipes must be arranged in a natural way and not represent risks with their exposure.

Exposed tubes fit the industrial style.

How to cap exposed pipes

Before telling you about the different ways to cover the tubes to integrate them into your decoration, you must understand that this decision should not be taken lightly. First you must consider the regulations that apply in your city or building on the correct and safe way to handle pipes.

This, because we are talking about something that goes beyond mere aesthetics and involves your safety, that of your family and your neighbors. These standards also include a series of parameters that must be respected and usually suggest the types of materials with which the tubes can be covered.

Cover the pipes with gutters

In case the tubes go through the external wall in a straight way, one of the most recommended things is to use gutters. These are primarily designed to cover cables, but why not tubes as well?

These elements have a great advantage and that is that they come in different colors and sizes to fit any cumbersome pipe. The best thing is that you can form figures and designs on your walls with the gutters, completely transforming your spaces.

Baseboards and crown molding

Crown moldings are ideal for covering pipes that protrude from high areas.

Baseboards and crown molding can be used to cover exposed pipes high or low on the floor. It is one of the most aesthetic and elegant ways to get the pipes out of sight.

They are part of the ceiling moldings, also known as false ceilings. With these, the tubes are not seen, but they also give the apartment a touch that raises the aesthetic level and makes it look much more glamorous. The only disadvantage of false ceilings is that you must take into account that they reduce the height of the home, so they could be seen smaller and reduced.

Install missing beams to cover pipes

If you don't want to lower the entire ceiling to cover the pipes, you can use false beams that can be made of different materials. This will give it a more elegant and classic look in some cases. Identify what you want to see in your home and design something unique and beautiful for you. Remember that these beams come from wood, metal and other materials. So, without a doubt, you will be able to find them and adapt them perfectly to this decorative style that you have been working on.
