you are a sneaky one, ahoova! they are such a pain, though! we get an eco-version de at agway and it is very inexepsive. works on anything crawling around, ants, roaches, flies, you name it.

we can't use scented ANYTHING. husband gets rashes and i get rashes and/or urinary tract infections. first thing the urologist told me was to cut out anything scented, especially detergent and dryer sheets. as for using something in the dryer, old tennisballs (i use 2) work really well to keep things separated and moving around. i think i saw it in readymade ages ago. it works well.

there are so many options, and beyond that, you could use any kind of mesh chair to make something like this. there are lots of really bulky yarns out there, and as vwings said, i think recycled fabric would be really fun, too! i love to use old tshirts, etc, cut them into strips and make rugs, etc.

love ya cathy!

cool!

love that orange chair and foot stool!

i looove the lamp. i love to make things into lamps, too. ah, light.

amazing!

we keep the thermostat low and heat the rooms we are in with small heaters, which is much cheaper than when we used to just use the gas heat...we would commonly get a bill of $400/month in the winter! crazy! we close doors of rooms not used and close vents, but it still doesn't make a big difference.

i actually have saved cathair in baggies from my longhaired cats. i spin yarn, and thought some day i might want to make some yarn and a little softie out of it at some point. there are people that collect doghair and make it into blankets and stuff. i guess all animal fiber is about the same thing. i bit creepy, but we use it anyway:)
