I've been toying with mounting mine on black paper and sticking them in a frame and hanging them on the wall in my home office. Is that cheesy though?

Oh, THOSE stools. I thought....oh, never mind.

I don't like it. Those three mismatched pieces just hulking there on top of one another make the room look smaller than a uniform wall of books would.

I had a bagless vacuum and grew disenchanted very quickly.

Sure, it looks sharp right out of the box, but after the first use you're looking at last week's crud in the clear plastic cup.

And it didn't work well. Granted it wasn't a Dyson.

I went back to bags and I ain't looking back!

I grew up with a TV in the kitchen. It does seem cozy to me.

Of course it wouldn't seem right unless "The Mike Douglas Show" is on.

Books. They show that life is actually lived in that room.

Also, though this may not be for everyone, a cat or two add a comfortable vibe like nothing else.

A ceramic hippo with holes in its back (that I think is actually intended to be a toothbrush holder.)

And a little crystal elephant that I have there for some long-forgotten feng shui reason.

If it were me, I'd be hesitant to put shelves up there, or anything substantial for that matter, because I know I would eventually fumble and drop something onto the stove.

One large art print might look overwhelming. Maybe a combination of a few things - a couple of hooks for something light like a colander or mixing spoons, maybe a small shelf, along with a couple of smaller prints?

I left my cat alone for a three-day weekend and when I got home found that she had somehow (and I'll never figure out how) gotten her collar around her front leg so she was wearing it like a Miss America sash. It had to be uncomfortable, and I don't know if it happened on day one or day three.

Now I'm lucky enough to have a friend that stays with the cats. One of the cats had a urinary blockage once, and if it had happened over a period where nobody was looking in on him, he could have died.

Yes cats are easy, and most of the time they'd be fine alone - but it's best if someone at least checks on them every day or two. You can't expect the unexpected, but it happens.
