I really don't understand why people feel the need to be so snarky with their comments. Clearly this shelf is a necessity for the homeowner, so just eliminating it would cause more problems than it would fix.

Can't we all try to be just a little nicer to one another?

@kls987 That's a great suggestion! If you don't want to take the time to put pins on all your clothes, why not try it in the reverse? When you wear an item, it gets a pin on the tag. After the predetermined cut-off time, all items WITHOUT pins get donated.

Ooo, I love this!

As a side note, it would seem that the artist who created the woman-skin rug also took fertility drugs, had her eggs harvested, and then packaged them and "marketed" them as "Christy Caviar".

Bizarre.

Wait, where's the link for the yellow one-armed sofa? I clicked over from twitter to try and find the link . . .

Aubuchon Hardware carries a good selection of contact paper, and I had a very easy time ordering online: http://housewares.hardwarestore.com/37-shelf-liner-and-contact-paper.aspx
The contact paper wasn't too expensive; the online form was easy to use, and delivery time was reasonable.

Part of what I ordered was contact paper that is designed to function like chalkboard paint. I haven't yet used it, but will report back if I do.

@ rockypondgirl -- seriously, if we were actually friends, I'd TOTALLY trade with you.

PLEASE tell us where we can get that "Make yourself at home" rug!

Hydrogen peroxide is also great for lifting blood stains. It's gentle on most fabrics, even delicates. It also eats away at the scummy stuff that collects around the crevices of my shower drain. I've also used it to soak and whiten shoelaces.

I lived in a dorm with picture molding and inpenetrable walls. My grandfather used needle-nosed pliers and made me hooks out of pieces of wire coathangers to hang all my pictures; we used thin wire to suspend the pictures from the hooks. They're sturdy and I've re-used them for several things.
