Ever heard of it?! You need it more than you think you do! Start with spools of 1.5 inch ādouble-facedā satin (Iāve linked my favorite Amazon brand) in the specific colors of: black, crimson, turquoise, goldenrod/marigold, and sort of a icy, slate-gray, periwinkle blue. A deep, wine-red burgundy in .5 inch velvet and an Easter-y, baby pink (or blue or yellow or lilac!) in .25 inch satin will also come in surprisingly handy. Use for beautifying hairstyles, presents, and bouquets of all kinds. Giving someone a single flower is made a thousand times fancier just by tying a bow on it.

Go type āmobilesā into the search bar on Etsy. The results dazzle. And this kind of art takes up zero floor or wall space in an apartment! Matte, metallic, felted, wood, stained glass, sea glass, origami, Calder riffsā¦ Mobiles have it all and Etsy has all the mobilesāgood ones start as low as $35. Technically their correct term is ākinetic sculptures,ā but I call my own collection my houseās āhanging gardens.ā

āļøThe best sleep-soundtrack is not thunderstorms or white noise or waves. Itās Simlish. Itās Buy Mode. Itās all the familiar sound-effects.

If the heel isnāt walkable then just call it what it is: A tiny art installation for your closet. Unwalkable shoes sit on shelves like small leather sculptures! The very purpose of shoes is to increase your mobility and comfortānot to limit your stamina and plans for the night! Stop wasting money and start engaging with reality instead. You will never wear them. Save the money.
