While these cups are fun, after paying $5.00 for 50, it doesn't make much sense to me to pay that much for one that I have to wash. :O)

So Steampunk!

Oh, yes, I have one that I still miss 10 years after moving, and it’s only a mile away. For some amazing reason I was able to buy a home and did. In So Cal buying is out of reach for many and I had no delusions that I would be able to buy a condo. The condo is fine. The price was good and the value was up there too. It’s bigger, I have a garage, but it isn’t like the little one bedroom I rented for 8 years. Oh, well.

I always wondered how those cords got this way. Love it.

Thank you! Thank you! Thank you for not painting the cabinet and appreciating its history instead. It looks beautiful.

Good morning Elena, You have asked a very big question. At first I was going to suggest one of the curtain rods that swivel back and forth, but that won’t work with what you want to do. The other option would be to install a small track on the ceiling and curve it around to enclose the vestibule. With this, I think, you could pick any fabric you like. IKEA has something similar, but it has limits in how it can be configured.

Years ago I lived in a 1910 shotgun house with very drafty window. So I know how it feels to have your heat escape.

Good luck to you.

I know I am going to incur the wrath of the AT community for this. My suggestion is to put removable wallpaper or removable shelf paper over the wall tile. Yes, it won’t look professional, but it will give you an opportunity to see how other colors look in the bathroom. The paper should be easier to take off when you gut.

Good post. Really, who would want a airplane wing desk.

inneedofmakeover,

I bought the Lint Lizard at Bed Bath and Beyond. It is a lot easier to use than some of the others I have tried in the past and much less expensive.

ecandle96 and SkippingDaisies you make good points. My current shower head is mediocre at best and I do spend more time rinsing that scrubbing. What gives with shower heads? The toilets keep lowering the amount of water used and are getting more powerful at the same time. I just bought two that only use 1.28 gallons per flush, amazing.

Rural and rueful, you said a mouthful and hit the nail on the head.

I do what I can, when I can, where I can, to save paper, gas, food, electricity, and yes, water and try not to judge others for what I perceive they do or don’t do. The 10 seconds once a week that I see my neighbor putting a box in the wrong dumpster doesn’t mean they are not recycling. I learned my lesson by being righteous and going back later to take the box out of the trash to put in the recycling dumpster. The recycling dumpster was over filled. I sheepishly put the box back into the trash dumpster.

Live by example and people will notice,
