F*ck This Arrow Post-Its

Oh how I wish I could get away with using these at work. It would be hilarious as a joke on days you're feeling goofy. And it would just be awesome on days when you really hate your job and you wanna let your boss have it. Let's admit it, we all have those days, right?

This just got me thinking about the ethics training we all had to take at work recently. It was funny how taking this course put all these ideas in our heads of inappropriate behavior and inappropriate things to say. For the two weeks after the training we were all very "badly" behaved, joking around about how unethical we were being. These post-its would have been fun to have then.

And I just noticed how the color goes from yellow to read as your F-this meter goes up. LOL nice.

Take one...


I think these "take one" ads(?) are pretty cool. I'm secretly (not anymore) very drawn to them. I found an example of one online a while back that said "Free Smiles, Take One", with smiles on the tabs. I made my own and put it up at work. It was really fun seeing people take them, then put them up in their cubes. Then a guy at work made a version that was a butt. It looked like this: (_|_). That was funny.
I think it would be fun to start posting these funny "take one" ads in random places. Thing is, it would be hard to check up on them to see if anyone's taking them. Which for me was half the fun. 

Plant Curtain

What a neat way to use these plants! I'd have never thought to do this. It reminds me of the Japanese noren curtains that are hung on doorways. I guess you would have a shelf with a planter in it above the doorway and let the plants hang down. It would be best to have it in a bright room with little traffic going through this doorway so the plants don't get battered. But it's definitely unexpected and pretty. I bet it would be a good way for the plant to do its job as an air purifier too. I wonder what other plants you could do this with. We had a goldfish plant that grew fast and long like that. Maybe you could try it with one of those.

Teepee

I loooooooove the look of this bedroom! I love the shape, the windows, the mattress on the floor, everything. I guess this isn't really a teepee because aren't those more like tents? But a tent version wouldn't have all the big windows and beautiful wood structure. I actually wonder if this isn't a room at the top of some really neat house. Like one of those houses that look like castles, with the cone shaped roofs on top of little sections of the house that jot off? Or this could be a really neat cabin somewhere. I'd definitely love to go stay in a cabin like this. It would be neat if you can lie in the bed and see stars outside.
