Before & After: A Different Ikea RAST Makeover

We have one hung on the back of our little coat closet that holds things like small umbrellas, the GPS, transit maps, sunglasses, hats, scarves, sunscreen, etc. It is very handy.

Most cats hate the feel of tin foil on their feet so just put a piece where you don't want the cat. The first time our cat jumped up on our "good" couch (he is allowed on the other couch) and felt the tin foil he almost did a backflip to get off of it. It is a cheap and easy solution and the legs of our couch are hidden so we just stuffed the tin foil under the couch when we were not using it. It has been a few years and he still does not get on that one couch.

Lindsclou - I was actually at the class. You can use eggshells and coffee grounds in the method discussed in the article. One of the pamphlets they handed out included directions for fruit fly traps using apple cider vinegar and detergent. They also suggested that freezing your fruit scraps would keep the fruit flies down and you can add the scraps to the bin frozen. The worms do the work so you do not have to turn the mixture. Hope this helps you out.

My husband makes lovely letter openers with wooden handles so I use one every day when I open the mail.

I was looking at these on their website recently and they were all sold out. These would be perfect to carry in my purse so I could go shopping on my way home from work.

I would make a grilled cheese with ham and thin slices of apple.

I have some old wood tables that I inherited. People are hesitant to put their glasses on them so I have coasters out all of the time. It seems to make people more comfortable about putting their glasses down.
For the winter I put out wooden ones I got at the Frank Lloyd Wright house in Buffalo and for the summer I use ones that look like postcards.

My little cordless vac just died so this would be good timing!

"Fairytale of New York" by The Pogues and Run D.M.C's "Christmas in Hollis" are my favorites. My husband loves any and all versions of "The Little Drummer Boy." I would love it in Red.
