Buffy ,'Same Time, Same Place'
Off-topic discussion. Wanna talk about corsets, duct tape, or physics? This is the place. Detailed discussion of any current-season TV must be whitefonted.
Okay, the pegboard and hooks is cool. I think the key to saving most of my necklaces is to hang them on hooks.
I decided this morning that I have more necklaces I like than earrings. And I only have the one neck, and the 7 holes pierced in my ears. I'm not sure when that transition happened.
Rainier cherries! I remembered them today! I still want chocolate, but these'll do.
Thanks, Kat.
I have a rectangle of deep burgandy velvet pinned to the wall that I hang my earrings on. I found a wrought iron coathook thingy (multiple hooks) with lots of curlicues on the main panel, and I hang my necklaces all over that. It's kind of full now, though.
My question regarding pegboard, is what do you do with hoop earrings? And little ones? My earrings are just in a box.
Oh my, grep is fast. It can search 10,000 posts (5,446,223 bytes) pretty much instantaneously.
Here is the results from just a single thread (Natter 36):
cat 1487
dog 195
kitten 108
penguin 28
puppy 18
duck 16
(note that this includes taglines)
I bet it'd just take a few seconds to search half a million posts....
No camel count?
Hey -- how do people store their jewelry?
I have a piece of black velvet laid across my lingerie armoire, with everything laid out on top of it. It requires re-organizing (read: tidying) every two months or so, but it's all right there. My daily rings have their own special spot up in front, with my most-worn earrings right next to them. I don't wear necklaces all that often (never to work), so I don't have to worry about laying them out each time. The least-worn stuff gets rotated into a red silk box.
tommy, I think Pandas win because they had a thread title.
Also because they're so cute!
I have a wooden stacking jewelry box, with one layer being little cubbyholes (for earrings), the next layer split in two, with one side pins and one necklaces, and the bottom layer has bracelets. I think I got it at Hold Everything.
Camel = 9.
I think I'll gradually download Natter threads until I get them all.
This is actually very easy, if you have Unix, Linux or a Mac with OS X. If you had a directory of, say, all the Natter threads, you'd just go into a terminal window, change to that directory and type
grep -ci "camel" *
which will return just the count of a case-insensitive search for all occurances of "camel".
Camel = 9.
Hm. Must improve.
