What works is a chemical dessicant-- like Damp Rid. I used to hang two in my closets that were on the north side of the house to keep them smelling good. They collect water from the air and have to be replaced every few weeks in the summer and every couple of months in the winter.<br /><br />Before you do that, I'd wash all of the fabric with borax in the load, and then wipe the walls down with borax (it kills mold/mildew.) Then put your newly dried fabrics and damp rid into your newly dried closet and it won't get musty again.lwhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08731797783816953087noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-84203433549216793672012-10-22T12:23:24.029-05:002012-10-22T12:23:24.029-05:00You are doing right by not giving your advice to y...You are doing right by not giving your advice to your friend. She may already be having second thoughts, hence why she wants your validation. Best friends are sorta like children. You never ever want to give your children (especially adult ones) advice on what to do and make them choose. If they follow your advice they will forever be looking back, believing that if they had done what they wanted to do, things would have been great---you stopped them from taking advantage of a "once in a lifetime opportunity"---never mind all the pitfalls your saw and they didn't. If they go against your advice and fall into those pitfalls, then they will be just waiting for the "I told you so", and will distance themselves sometimes without knowing it cause they don't want to admit they were "hardheaded" and didn't listen. It is best to just say (to friends and children alike, unless you know for sure those pitfalls are going to endanger them) "I support you in whatever you decide and will always love you. This is YOUR decision, not mine". Ask me how I know all this!

It's too dry. And yay for time for quilting! Can't wait to see Sydney's quilt.<br /><br />Balancing it all is so hard. Glad you had a nice "you" day.<br /><br />xo -EElizabethhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07980461113595763030noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5259952795997957550.post-33650007846877759052012-10-22T08:50:37.984-05:002012-10-22T08:50:37.984-05:00I hear ya!

It's genealogy info and I just hate to let it go...some of it was too hard to find! But haven't a clue how I'd even begin to retrieve it! Hope you have a productive, easy week!
