Lint is Contagious

Since lint is highly contagious, remove it before you put a garment in the closet. No clothing brush? Wrap a strip of masking or cellophane tape around your hand, adhesive side out, and move it across the garment. Or use a damp sponge. You'll find that lint is much easier to remove with a damp clothes brush than with a dry one. To remove lint from velvet, a clean sponge powder puff works well; on wool use a dry cellulose sponge.

RE: Kitchy Kitchen Wallpaper

I was at someone's house recently, that had done something like this, but she'd not shellaced or varnished over it. She'd painted the walls and backsplash plain white & had glued pictures of loose apples & some were bushels of apples, around on the walls every so often. It was interesting. She might not have been finished with her project, yet, I don't know. The apple pictures felt like they were maybe cut from wallpaper borders & had almost a 3-D effect.

RE: Kitchy Kitchen Wallpaper

This is a very cute idea for a kitchen. I have seen other rooms in a house wallpapered with pages from books. A very frugal way to recycle and decorate!
