ReadyMade

While we were in eastern washington I was perusing some of their magazines and came across this one called ReadyMade. I think I'm in love. They had such cute & unique decorating ideas. They also had cool info.... like where you can get your own fabric design printed.

upload graphic or pattern to spoonflower.com they'll print it on 100% cotton for $10/yard

get personalized mini tiles... teenytile.com graphics pictures etc. $5/tile

free floating bookshelves... 8" corner braces turned upside down ... stack the books on them.

make your veggies last longer by putting a dry sponge in the drawer with them... it'll soak up the extra moisture

a dollar bill is approx. 6"... useful information for when you need, but don't have a tape measure.

hate adjusting the temp in the shower to find the perfect temp... adjust it once, then put a dab of nail polish. from then on you'll get your perfect temp.

if you've got a cut finger that's bandaged, and you don't want to get it wet in the shower. put a balloon over it. problem solved.

need that piece of wood you're sanding to be smooth. check it with a pair of nylons. any rough spots will catch on the nylons.

use drop handle drawer handles to hold tools

need something to hold notes... pry off the bait holder of a mousetrap and screw it into the wall.
