I was wasting time on the web and came across this link...

I have a mild addiction to around the house ideas & cord management and just when you thought you had seen them all
And storing sheet sets inside their pillow cases - now that's smart

Is this (http://www.thedailybuzz.com.au/2011/11/25-clever-ideas_household-tips_storage-ideas/) the same article/site as you posted, Mtnlaurel? I couldn't get the link you posted to load.

Anyhow, if so, super-nifty! How to fold a fitted sheet (perfectly) is a particularly good one! Attached pics are so helpful.

Thanks for this!

I actually did rearrange the linen closet, bagged the sheet sets in one of their pillowcases, and shelved them by size. I downloaded a cool font that looks like rubber stamp letters, used up old manila folders, ran them through the printer with lovely vintage brown ink color, and made big sheet size labels. I tied them onto the wire shelves with string; they are organized, & will stay that way! And looks really cute.

I like the look of those gutter gardens, but I would be worried about rot. Maybe I could do something like that by mounting them on a fence.

I wonder if this one works:
"So apparently, you don’t really need all those scented plug-ins, sprays, or automatic dispensers that look like space ships. This recipe couldn’t be easier. It’s just baking soda, with around 8 drops of your favourite essential oil. Give it a shake every now and then to refresh the scent." (They show it in a jar)

My house smells like dogs - not in a good way.
