This furniture is unbelievable. The photos and video on the importer's site ("Resource Furniture") don't do it justice, but the video below does give you a sense of it. When you consider that you can essentially create an extra room by using space efficient furniture, even if it's expensive (I'm assuming it costs a lot - it's well made and comes with a great warranty), it's worth the cost if you're strapped for space. I definitely want to keep this in mind if we stay in our small home much longer.

No More Leaky Liquid Laundry Detergent
PROBLEM:
Ever notice that after you've poured your liquid laundry detergent and recapped the bottle, sometimes the detergent leaks out from what's leftover in the cap? It's scary - this stuff, undiluted by the wash water, can literally peel paint off of shelves if it sits around.
SOLUTION:
This is brilliant-but-obvious. No idea why it never occurred to me before I saw someone else do it. Simply take the last piece of clothing you're tossing in the washer and use it to wipe the inside of the cap clean and dry. Simple.
