We're in the market for a bigger bed, so our full that's identical to #2 will be headed to the basement soon.

Strange how similar my daughter's room is to this. Same color birds, same type of bird silhouettes, white tree. The main difference is her room is predominantly light turquoise with accents of gray. http://wonderfuljoyahead.blogspot.com/2011/08/les-room-tour.html

They have that same one at World Market for $40 and a smaller version for $30.

I bought a similar one from there close to Mother's Day when they had a promo. You can see part of it in

I've seen this repinned on Pinterest over and over again, but will it actually work? I mean, I can see how it'd stay up, but will those plastic lips weaken? How realistic or easy will it be to remove heavy boxes? Sure this would be easy for empty or near empty boxes.
Anyone think it actually would work out?

Penzeys spices- my parents gave me a giftbox of assorted spices from them. I thought the selection was strange, so I took some back to the store, only to find out that they could tell by the packaging that some of the spices were a few years old (and no longer good). My parents put some of the spices they've had on hand in the box instead of buying new spices. Penzeys still exchanged them for fresh spices even though it was completely my parents' fault.

@LittleMissy, glad you had good experiences with PB, because that has not been my experience at all.

Yes, this is a gorgeous room-- but wow! Quite the budget!! For example, those birdhouses above the bed are $150-$200 each.

One of my dear friends takes vintage surfboards, paints beautiful and unique commissioned designs on them, and then partners with World Vision to give 10% of her profits for clean water. It's such a great idea to use the boards that would otherwise go unused-- and it's such a different medium.
