One of the few that seemed useful and practical is the picket fence idea for cables - that that would also keep them bunny safe! The wallpaper for the refrigerator I actually thinks looks much worse than the fridge beforehand! And why does putting striped or polkadots on the washer and dryer "hide" them? Makes them more obvious to me!

As a novice woodworker, I thought the stairs/storage ideas were stupendous.

The Kitty-Litter-Hider was cool too!
