whitewitchcrafts OFFLINE Posts: 121	I agree Karen. You know it is funny to watch TC investigating the tape and then the shock on his face when it sticks to his paw. Guess that is pay back for all the fur he leaves. Bobbi

KakeM OFFLINE Posts: 380	I don't know what I'd do without my roller pet hair remover thingy...it lives very close to the ironing board. Just love that sticky tape!

Thank you received: 50

I work in a school and wear a lot of black. My colleagues and students are always picking threads off my tops, and some have worked out that you can guess what I'm working on by the colour of the threads.

And then there are the 'migrating threads': Son came to see me for an hour, went back home, and the friend he shares a house with asked: 'How is your Mum, Andy?' When my son wanted to know how on earth he knew where he had been, his friend just pointed to some threads on his top.

slfiore OFFLINE Posts: 1	I use a lint roller to clean threads and shreds off my ironing board surface and cutting mats. Helps keep the 'lint-picking' down to a minimum when I'm finishing a quilt.
