• If you are renter that wants to spice things up without breaching your rental agreement, Wendy over at The Shabby Nest has a great idea for Gift Wrapping Your Walls.

  • "Babies don't bounce. They don't bounce! Shame. It'd be much more fun if they bounce."
    
  • "I think you should sit down. Surely your ankles can't take the weight."
    
  • "Tick tock tick tock... Everybody's waiting. It's time for me to shine."
    
  • "So many little people. Pet them on the head. pet pet pet pet pet...."
