My santoku knife. How'd I get along without it?

Yeah, I'd always heard of frottage as a different finishing technique. ;)

Behr has step-by-step instructions on how to achieve the paint finish. Like Matrid22 said though, it sounds different than what was mentioned here.

I've recently had problems with my newly adopted pound puppy thinking she's princess of the furniture. Just put tinfoil on your furniture when you leave or aren't around, and it'll keep the pets off. There's something about the sound/texture that freaks them out, and off the couch. Much easier than buying these things on a regular basis.

Another good online source is Mr. French. I had a book making class a year ago, and they were a great resource for paper.

Congrats on bucking the hyper-McMansion trend of SLC, Brooke! I thought your place looked rather cozy.

Thanks for the mini review on the Malm bed too. I've been considering it for a while now... perhaps a trip to Sandy is in order. ;)

I really like this idea, and you can find some incredible craft paper at your local art store for fairly inexpensive. I'd just suggest keeping the paper out of sunlight, as it tends to fade pretty easily.

Melaleuca may sell progressive products, but certainly isn't that way socially. I live near their headquarters, and have watched as they've slandered the LGBT community by actively campaigning for a very restrictive state amendment and making wild claims that vilified all LGBT people. They also printed full-page newspaper ads on a daily basis where they went on a pedophile witch-hunt against former Boy Scout leaders. This was during the trial of one man who was being accused of molesting members of his scout troop, pretty much ensuring he couldn't get a fair trial.

Here's one example: http://www.pridedepot.com/modules/wordpress/?p=1415

I just thought people should have a more informed view of how Melaleuca chooses to practice business.
