Simply shabby How do you keep copper bird feeders looking good?
I spent a lot of dough on a beautiful bird feeder with a copper top on it. However, it quickly started looking shabby with bird dropping stains that I can't get out. I don't mind a patina as the copper ages, but the bird dropping stains are simply ugly. I'm considering getting another copper-topped feeder as a mother's day gift, but not if it's going to look ugly after only a few months. Is there any way to protect the copper from staining? A coat of oil or something?
Buy a can of Brasso. It's absolutely the best metal cleaner; so good that the military uses it all the time. You could apply a thin spray coating of polyurethane to keep it from tarnishing. That would also prevent the bird droppings from staining it.

What Makes People Interesting??????????
A slut printing sluttish things on herself is slutty.
This is what I mind about the media in Britain and also in the US.
It tarts up someone like Posh Spice and devises all kinds of stunts to make her interesting.
Never mind that she or Fearne Cotton or any of the others are simply not provocative, unusual, erotic or interesting.
There are people around who are naturally imaginative, curious, spontaneous and erotic. But their identities have been co-opted, as has their intellectual product, by an Establishment which will only support b***** whom it can control.
Like I said about Gemma Goldsmith....she can make something essentially reckless seem shabby and vulgar.
By the same token, the FCs of this world take what is reckless in some decent girl, and pass it off as part of their own warpaint.
Thus the fuss: Oooooooooooooooooh, she has **** painted on her ***.
Control. Control. And more control.
who cares about celebrities, they are mostly decadent and deadly dull.
shabby chic curtains Chocolate brown Couch, Robin egg blue walls, What colors to use for the rest?
I just got a new Home and purchased 2 Lovely Rich chocolate brown sofa recliner sets. Im going to be painting my walls a pale robins egg blue sort of color, and im wondering, what colors of curtains to use in the room? I was thinking a natural green, also what color of rug and coffee table? I like the Shabby Chic look but , not too country, Any ideas? I think an antiqued white table would clash with the brown and blue.. maybe an antiqued black or pale green? What do you think? any photos would be great. i really want to make the color scheme work.. Green Chocolate and blues.. ( more pale blues then rich) Thanks
We have similar taste. We have dark brown (almost black) Sofas and we painted one wall a pastel green for a focal wall then the rest a pale lavender (almost white). White looks gorgeous with lighter blues as this is what we did for our kitchen. Basically any pastel or jewel tone blues, purples, greens or yellows would look great. Try being Monochromatic picking one colour but then having it in diferent shades, textures, etc. Personally I think when you have a dark piece of furniture you want to spice it up with Bright, happy yet sophisticated colours. You can make it fit your mood as as well. For spring bright yellows, purples, and greens and a more dramatic feel use reds and silver and orange.
