It works a treat, and can be rewarmed over and over again :)<br /><br />(I use the sock on my lap - it's the centre of my body, and thus it spreads the warmth throughout my whole body LOL)Danihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04020970904311512357noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2676127682369986291.post-62345099528741566802011-11-15T17:47:04.741-05:002011-11-15T17:47:04.741-05:00I'm originally from Europe and there were alwa...I'm originally from Europe and there were always quilts, rugs, or tapestries hanging on the wall.

One can use picture hanging nails to tack them up and if one has pretty quilts/blankets, it actually makes a lovely wall covering. Wonderful tips ... thanks for sharing!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18323775808390175925noreply@blogger.com
