The "secret ingredient" in organic container gardens: worm castings with live worms. Red compost worms convert organic nutrients in potting soils into plant-available form, and the last chamber of the worm gut is loaded with beneficial bacteria and fungi that boost plant immunity, cycle nutrients, and increase the water-holding capacity of the potting soil.

Ozone is mother Nature's anti-microbial disinfectant. Protect and safeguard your home with an Aqualogic by Lenova Faucet. Ozone (O3) is an antimicrobial agent that is very effective at oxidizing and destroying organic and other compounds on equipment and surfaces. The Aqualogic by Lenova faucet features a smal, thin ozone generator that uses regular house current to economically and naturally produce this strong oxidant. When the ozone water comes into contact with micro-organisms it oxidizes them. Ozone is approved by the FDA as an additive to kill food-borne pathogens and leaves no toxic residue on treated surfaces providing a natural, safe, and inexpensive anto-microbial solution for all kitchens. Chemical cleaners cannot match its effectiveness.

This project won in the 2013 Builders Association of Metropolitan Pittsburgh Housing Excellence Award for Best Urban Renewal Renovation Project. The glass bowl was made in the glass studio owned by the owner which is adjacent to the residence. The mirror is a repurposed window. The door is repurposed from a boarding house.

Stainless steel table legs offer several advantages over other materials, such as wood or plastic. Here are some reasons why you might choose stainless steel table legs:
Durability: Stainless steel is highly resistant to corrosion, rust, and stains. It is a very strong and durable material, which makes it perfect for use in furniture that will be used in high-traffic areas.
Aesthetic appeal: Stainless steel has a sleek and modern look that can complement many different styles of decor. It is also available in a variety of finishes, including brushed, polished, and matte.
Easy to clean: Stainless steel is very easy to clean and maintain. It doesn't absorb spills, stains or odors, and can be wiped down with a damp cloth or cleaned with mild detergent and water.
Hygiene: Stainless steel is a non-porous material that does not harbor bacteria or other pathogens. It is frequently used in commercial kitchens and medical facilities for this reason.
Sustainability: Stainless steel is a highly recyclable material, and many manufacturers use recycled steel to make their products. This makes stainless steel a sustainable choice for those who are environmentally conscious.

This is an organic Lime Wash done with a true lime wash product as opposed to a brick mortar or concrete that is often seen on new houses. This product can be applied as a solid coating making the surface completely white, or can be applied and "washed off" in many artistic ways, as seen here. If you hate your brick or just want something unique this is a great option!
