DUH... Why Didn't I Think Of That?

This has nothing to do with being a quilter but I'm a quilter and this made me happy. It's Spring and I'm trying to clean and organize bit by bit. Yesterday was all my paint cans. I have so many. Each can is scribbled with things like... living room ceiling-flat.... kitchen walls-eggshell, etc. With so many cans, it gets confusing. >
A friend Phyllis Reddish shared this clever trick for keeping track of whats in what room even if you don't have any spare paint. In each room, behind a wall plate.. just write it such than when the wall plate goes back on, it's out of site. I've been on this planet a good while... I never thought of that. Very smart!
Thanks Phyllis.
