Some people may think that the refrigerator is the best place to store coffee beans. Actually not. Although the temperature of the refrigerator is low, there are too many things in the refrigerator, and the coffee may be mixed with other flavors.
Moreover, the humidity in the refrigerator is high, and coffee is very susceptible to moisture. Therefore, the refrigerator is not the best choice for storing coffee beans.
Knowing the above information about coffee roasting, I believe you can also become a coffee roaster.
The pottery is made by hand using clay and then made through a special firing process. Pottery has a long history and has become an indispensable part of fine arts. Making pottery is a fun and healing process.
Trying pottery making will allow you to see how the soil becomes porcelain step by step. As a beginner, you should try to learn bravely.
Our guide will tell you which pottery materials and equipment a beginner should have.
Clay
Clay is a soil with low sand content and high viscosity. According to the different oxygen content, the color can be divided into white, gray, orange, embroidered color, red, etc.
Clay is mainly divided into three different types:
l l Stoneware
l l Clay
l l Porcelain Clay
We recommend that beginners buy stone clay. Stone clay not only has a variety of colors to choose from (white to dark brown). Moreover, the fired stone clay has no gaps, no glaze is needed, and it can be used directly for water.
Pottery clay is also widely used, and it is generally thicker than stoneware. If you want the pottery made of clay to hold water, you need an extra glazing process.
Porcelain clay is the most difficult for beginners to master. To make ceramics from china clay, the step of mixing water is very important. Adding too much water is difficult to shape, and too little water is easy to collapse. This is not the best choice for beginners.
Basic Tool
Making pottery is a complex and delicate work, requiring a lot of small tools. The tools we recommend here include:
Towel and apron
l l Sponge
l l Ribs and spatula
l l Brush
l l Dressing knife
l l Pottery needle
l l Metal wire
l l Throwing stick
l l Wooden ribs
l l Wooden modeling tools
Pottery Wheel
The pottery wheel is an indispensable tool in the process of making pottery. If you are making cups, plates, jars and other items, we highly recommend that you buy a pottery wheel. This will make your job easier.
Pottery wheels are divided into manual and electric. For beginners, electric pottery wheels do not need the coordination required for kicking theory, so we recommend that beginners buy electric pottery wheels.
Ordinary electric pottery wheels cost less than US$200, which is very suitable for beginners to make pottery at home.
This electric pottery wheel has a compact structure, a good floor space, and a mud-retaining function.
In addition, the purchase of this pottery wheel also comes with a set of shaping tools, which can save you a lot of money.
Kiln
After the clay is finished, it must be fired, otherwise it will be very fragile. Only a professional kiln can reach the temperature required to make pottery, and the temperature of an oven in a general household is far from enough.
But the actual situation is that the kiln is not cheap, and it is not cost-effective to buy it separately.
Although there are small kilns for several hundred dollars to choose from, your consideration is clear whether you want to own it for a long time.
If not, you don't want to spend too much money on this, you still have many ways to complete the pottery firing.
If there are studios around you that are teaching pottery classes, that's right, you can ask them to make pottery for you. In addition, if there is a local supplier that provides pottery firing services, I think you can also find help.
Pottery Turntable Clamp
For beginners, making mistakes is common. It takes practice again and again to make perfect pottery. Those imperfect finished products can also be used after repair.
Adjustable pottery repair tool can easily help you find the center of the pottery. At the same time, this pottery turntable clamp can also be used on the pottery wheel to simplify the repair work.
The pottery turntable holder and electric pottery wheel make your pottery making easier and simpler. Hurry up and start your pottery making journey.
If you have a house with a courtyard, then you need to consider organizing your yard regularly. Owning a TTlifemall mini chainsaw can save you a lot of time and energy. It can be used for pruning branches or cutting down trees.
Such a convenient logging tool is worth paying for it.
How to correctly choose a chainsaw that suits you? You can start from the following aspects:
Cordless or Corded
The biggest difference between cordless and corded chainsaw is whether to use an extension cord when working.
As the name suggests, when using a wire saw, you need to use a wire to connect to a power source to supply power at all times. Therefore, its range of activities is limited, and it cannot be too far away from the power source.
The TTlifemall cordless chainsaw uses battery power, you only need to fully charge the battery, and the battery power chainsaw can last for a long time.
There is no restriction on the wire, and the range of movement of the cordless chainsaw is not restricted.
In addition, the battery power chainsaw does not need to be like a gas chainsaw, because the fuel is exhausted, and it pauses to replenish fuel in the middle.
Shape and Volume
The gas chainsaw is very large and heavy, so it is easy to feel tired when holding it for a long time.
The TTlifemall heldhold chainsaw is compact because of the small number of engines and is very light. The one-handed grip design makes the electric saw very comfortable to use, and will not tire your hands after long-term use.
Scenes to Be Used
The gas chainsaw has a large engine and sufficient power. It is an ideal choice for heavy work and is suitable for use on farms and pastures.
The TTlifemall electric chainsaw is relatively small due to its compact engine, and is suitable for pruning trees, branches, and cutting small logs. For small corners that cannot be touched by large gas chainsaws, the best battery chainsaw can easily clean up the debris, so it is very suitable for handling all corners of the home garden.
Noise and Smell
When using a gas chainsaw, there will be noise that is hard to ignore, and the mixed oil and natural gas fuel will give off an unpleasant smell when the chainsaw is running. Therefore, this type of chainsaw is suitable for use in open areas with few people.
With the use of a mini electric chainsaw with an upgraded engine, the noise has been greatly improved. Because no fuel is needed, the unpleasant smell of fuel will not be left during work.
Safety
The air chain saw is suitable for more professional people to operate. It is heavy and powerful, so it is not suitable for low strength or beginners.
The TTlifemall mini electric chainsaw is simple in design and can be started by pressing a button. The thoughtful baffle design can also prevent the sawdust from splashing and protect the safety of users.
The size of the cordless chainsaw is small, so it can be quickly mastered by the elderly, women or beginners.
Price
Compared with expensive gas chain saws, this cordless chainsaw is low in price and can save you part of your expenses. For beginners, it is also very cost-effective to buy this chainsaw for practice.
What are you still hesitating about, this TTlifemall mini chainsaw for gardens is worth buying.
Picnic baskets on the market are of various materials and styles, such as cloth picnic baskets, plastic picnic baskets, wooden picnic baskets, round picnic baskets, square picnic baskets and so on.
However, my favorite is the stylish and retro wicker picnic basket. It always reminds me of the people who became keen on road trips in the 1950s and 1960s.
I bought a willow picnic basket for the first time a year ago, and I fell in love with it when I got the basket. So far, I have three wicker picnic baskets in my home. My favorite is the dark brown wicker picnic basket purchased from TTlifemall two month ago.
You may be wondering if I buy so many picnic baskets to store space in the storage room? I want to say that is not the case. I think you will be curious about what I did with these baskets.
Use 1: An eye-catching picnic tool
The biggest function of the unique picnic basket is of course to be used during outdoor picnics. From spring to autumn, we always like to spend some time in the suburbs or parks when the weather is good, and take care of our own lunch or dinner by the way.
It is no exaggeration to say that the retro wicker-style picnic basket I bring on every outing always attracts the admiring eyes of people next to me.
It is worth mentioning that the TTlifemall picnic basket I recently purchased is very satisfied with me.
Not only is it very large, it can be used to store picnic food for our family of four, and four sets of picnic tableware are also presented, which is very cost-effective.
What I am most satisfied with is that the materials used in it are both waterproof and heat-preserving. Even if your food accidentally soils the picnic basket, you can easily clean it up.
My child and I took this TTlifemall wicker picnic basket for a picnic in the park last week. It gave me and my child a pleasant afternoon.
In addition, I would like to recommend a drink very suitable for summer: strawberry sangria.
The production process is very simple, you only need to mix the fruit (strawberry, orange or lemon) and sugar in a cup, then mash the fruit and let it sit for 30 minutes.
Then add wine and liqueur, refrigerate for 2 hours and you can get this great summer drink.
Use 2: Practical storage box
We don't have time to go out for a picnic every day. Picnic baskets are naturally forgotten in the storage room at certain times. I think this is the practice of most families.
I have always believed that each item can play a unique role in different time periods and on different occasions. We left them idle because we haven't figured out how to use them. As long as you are willing to think, you will find that each item has multiple uses.
Take the willow picnic basket as an example. The most original purpose of a picnic basket is to hold things, because its volume is large enough. Therefore, it is a great storage box that can store a lot of things.
You can use it as a snack box to store canned food, biscuits and other small snacks. You will find this very useful.
You can also put willow picnic basket in the hallway as a storage box for sundries, which can be used to put keys, dog leashes and other things that you want to get when you go out. I put the smaller picnic basket in the hallway.
Use 3: unique decorations
The wicker picnic basket is a very period item. In my opinion, just let it stand still, it can also be regarded as a work of art.
The TTlifemall wicker picnic basket is a work of art. When not using it, I will put it on the bookshelf in the study room.
I took out all the utensils in it and put some of the books on the shelf in the unique picnic basket. Then open the picnic basket and place it on the shelf. I have to say that this looks very harmonious.
The book and the picnic basket seem to be one, they are both the embodiment of art.
Of course, you can place the picnic basket wherever you see fit according to your own taste and hobbies. The living room, desk, etc. can all be decorated with picnic baskets as long as you like.
If you have also discovered the uniqueness of a wicker picnic basket, you also want to own it. I highly recommend that you buy a picnic basket from TTlifemall, it is a combination of practicality and art.
I like small animals very much. They are cute and easy to capture my heart. I have a very lively and cute little Corgi in my family, and I enjoy my time with it very much.
She is a girl, very lively. It jumps up and down every day, full of energy. But it is not difficult to find that every time it wants to follow me upstairs, it looks very clumsy. Moreover, without my help, it would be impossible for them to jump on a sofa or bed with a height.
Every time I see it struggling to jump onto a high platform, I feel amused and helpless. In order to give my pet a more comfortable living environment, I began to choose tools that can help him get on and off the sofa or bed.
When I searched the shopping website for these types of tools suitable for dogs, I found that there are two types to choose from, namely the dog stairs and the dog ramp.
Generally speaking, the dog stair and dog ramp have the same function, and can be used as a tool for the dog to get on and off the sofa.
But to buy a tool suitable for your dog, you need to consider the following factors:
Dog's Physical Health
Not all dogs can climb stairs, so dogs will go up and down the stairs on their own, which is a very labor-saving task for the owner.
The height of stairs suitable for dogs is half or even lower than the normal height of human stairs, so climbing stairs is very harmful to dogs. Especially for small dogs, climbing stairs can hurt the dog’s spine.
It is not easy to see the problem of joint damage in young dogs, but long-term wear and tear may cause lumbar spine or limb joint injuries when the dog is 4 years old. Between the ages of six and eight, it is even prone to functional obstacles.
What’s more, for dogs that are elderly or have injured joints, they do not have enough physical strength to climb stairs.
Therefore, buying TTlifemall dog ramps instead of dog stairs is an intimate consideration for dogs who are old or have joint injuries, and can effectively prevent healthy dogs from having joint problems in the future.
Ramp height
Most dog stairs on the market are of fixed height, so they may not match your sofa or bed.
But the paw ramp I bought has four heights, 30-40 cm and 50-60 cm. You can freely adjust the ramp according to the height of the sofa or bed. You can also adjust the slope of the ramp according to the slope your dog likes.
Traction on the ramp surface
The surface of the ramp should be non-slip so that the dog can grab it when walking on it.
The surface of the dog ramp I bought is covered with a non-slip mat made of polypropylene fiber, which can effectively prevent pets from accidentally falling when they climb up. There is a high level of security.
If your dog is very active and likes to run around at home, I think you should buy this pet ramp for your cute dog.
This can not only provide a better playing environment for them, but also prevent the pet's joints from being injured. It is very worth buying.
