Oooh, that brings back memories. A family friend that was dear to us (who has since passed on) had one of these on his front door. We used to LOVE going to visit him, and we'd fight over who got ...

With the right fabric, this could look neat on a couple of compenents. For instance, if you had a keyboard and a mouse that totally clashed with everything else. Or - in my case - all black compo...

Interesting concept...but what the heck's up with that cup holder?? Seems like a totally random addition... I mean, why not go all out and stick a chip bowl on the other side?

My 4 year old: "Momma, it looks like a koo-koo chair." Yes, it does look a little crazy.

I think my only real deal-breakers would be bugs/pests, and an apartment that's too high up (nothing higher than the 3rd floor, certainly). I'm terrified of heights, and have small kids - one of w...

Well, this is just plain exciting for me! Not necessarily because of the eco-superness (that's just an excellent bonus). But I was told that Siemens had stopped making phones and was concentratin...

Ooh, perfect post. We're currently sporting a bare bulb in our kitchen. It previously had a glass globe, but the globe slipped twice and fell. Once, my husband caught it, and the second (and las...

I hate water wasters. We had a roomate once that would fill our bathtub to the brim (and it was an unusually deep tub), soak in the tub for 30 or 40 minutes, and then immediately follow it up with...

Is Pandora still banned for Canadians? :( It used to my most frequently accessed website. I miss it.

I've seen this done with false electrical outlets, as well (another DIY project).

Those would be ridiculously easy to make. Mind you, I don't quite understand the point. I guess they'd help protect your clothing if you decided to be thrifty and use wire hangers. Though at $18...

Haha spiralcma....that was my first thought, too.

We've done a major major downsizing in the past, and it feels so liberating. After our most recent move, we were down to just our "needs." We were preparing for a lifestyle change, where we'd be ...

As somebody that was delegated to a gloomy basement bedroom as a teen, I would have loved something like this!

I could see this being excellent for a family of iPod/iPhone owners, rather than the tangle of cords we've become used to in my house. ;)

Does it rotate? If it were placed on a lazy-susan style device, it could work well pretty much anywhere. I'd love something like this for my sewing room, under the ironing table!

An alternative to the vinyl is oilcloth, which you can make yourself via many online tutorials (googleicious!). I've also heard of people using PUL, a waterproof fabric often used for making diape...

I clean-as-I-go, for the most part. This makes the big jobs a little easier. I used Flylady's cleaning schedule from flylady.com (after customizing it a bit for my own needs) to really start my r...

Stephvixen!! Hahahaha, oh man. Terrible!

I think I've only had one thing drycleaned in my life. Even so, we do aquire these wire hangers in abundance over time. I keep a few on hand to use for crafts. They work well as a frame for butt...
