There are many companies that manufacture handles in many different shapes sizes and colors. They are generally made of metal since it’s meant for rough use. In the United States of America, the door handles are not so commonly used in houses. They are found all over the world on cars though. Here doorknobs are very commonly used on doors.

Abstract Painting

Image
The term abstract painting refers to a style of painting that was developed after the post-impressionist period. Abstract painting was in effect created by Picasso and Braque in 1910 when each worked separately in relatively the same abstract painting style. Picasso introduced cubism at this time…a form of abstract painting which depicts a subject from several angles simultaneously, a major departure from conventional art.

With each advance into abstract painting artists became

Pop-up Canopy for Portable Shade

Image
Pop-up canop ies are just what their name implies. They can be erected in just a few easy steps with very little effort.  Portable canopies are designed to take anywhere you need a stable, shaded living or work area. They are an excellent choice for those looking for portability, light weight, easy setup and attractive styles at a very reasonable cost. The unique feature of the pop-up models is the permanent attachment of the canopy top to the poles. This aids immensely in quick setup and take-down. Heavy gauge aluminum or powder coated steel are normally used to create the frames. Telescoping legs are very useful for setting your canopy up on uneven ground. Reinforcement at the foot anchors provides excellent stability despite their light weight. Take-down is as simple as releasing the leg pins or locks and fold the thing up. Most pop-up tents have their own storage bags and can fit easily into your car’s trunk. These are mostly fair weather canopies. High winds or drivin
