Back to the question, my weirdest tchotchke are 3 bone white plaster casts of my teeth from when I was growing up. Some people find them a bit disturbing, but I like them-weird I know...

I have a love-hate relationship with my tchotchkes. I love looking at them but someitmes feel like they're dragging me down and have the urge to chuck them all out!

Gray could work, though buttermilk might work better. Burgundy would also be ok if you have good lighting.

I tried colour-organizing my books, and it was a disaster! couldn never find the book I wanted to read, and they looked a mess as they were all different heights and sizes. An interesting book/desi...
