[QUOTE="SBSVC, post: 166932, member: 136"][SIZE=4][I]I blame it on the cats. "Oh, Fangus broke that!"[/I][/SIZE] Marko, what a great solution to an ongoing problem! My older sister has a housekeeper who is forever giving her little cat figurines from the Dollar Store, the Christmas Tree Shop, and the like. Since the housekeeper is at her house often, my sister was displaying the figurines among her other collectibles (while complaining rather bitterly about it...) I came up with a solution for her... I put up a multi-shelf wall unit behind her bedroom door. It is very visible when the door is CLOSED (which in her house, it never is) but it's out of sight when the door is OPEN. When the housekeeper is there, she can see that all of her gifts are on display - and she doesn't have to know that absolutely no one else can see them the rest of the time. I guess it seems rather mean, tho, doesn't it?[/QUOTE]
