Steve, I don't know if you ever found what you were looking for in "water slip decals", but I just came across a product that looks super for us PC crafters. Maybe you've heard of it, but it's new to me. It's called Lazertan and these two sites sell it online: http://www.mystampstore.com/catalog/Lazertran1.htm http://www.creatinghomedecor.com/lazertran.htm jackie (alabama) Here is a link that might be useful: Lazertan

You know, that might work, been in the same situation myself, but I do prefer to have colors for inks sometimes, so keep up with the both of them. I get refills of ink from Walgreens, much cheaper, unless there is a special on ink refills at WM, or Staples, wherever I can find it. Also, sometimes, cleaning the spots where the ink comes out of the little holder, with a Q-tip, and some alcohol, sometimes allows more ink to come out of the printer, but don't use anything but alcohol! Also, never touch that area, as even the oil from your fingers can plug those fine holes!

Yes, I knew there were expiration dates on ink (there's expiration dates on many things people wouldn't necessarily think about, peroxide & alcohol are just a couple) and there's also good and bad ways to store ink. You don't want to stockpile too much. I was looking in the store at the ink cartridges and wasn't surprised that the rotation wasn't maintained. Won't name the store. A couple people go crazy when it's mentioned. So watch when you buy too. Also, many if not most have a chip inside them to say they're out of ink before they actually are. They have to declare how much ink is in a cartridge but not how much you can actually use. On my Epson, there's a little reset switch. It gave me the message that it was out of ink. I pushed the reset and looky here, all of a sudden there's ink in there again! How it works varies from printer to printer but usually look around the electrical connection and there might be the little spot to poke a paper clip. The maddening part is that it has to cost more to put the electronics in there than it costs for the ink but they keep you buying it.

That's funny, I used an old TV armoire for craft supplies too! Later on we got a couple of very basic white tables/legs from Ikea for our "craft tables." They worked out great. We put two of them together to make a big square with a chair on each side so there was a lot of table space even when DD had a sewing machine set up on one side. I used FLOR tiles on the wall instead of a bulletin board. It only works with certain types of push pins, though, so you have to experiment a bit, but the colorful (low pile) carpet squares made for a cool graphic element on the wall. Our craft area is neglected now that DD is in high school and has such a crazy schedule. Sad!
