Have a house where all inside surfaces are coveverd in velcro, people in the house could wear suits also made of velcro, this would eliminate the need for stairs (such a waste of space) and by putting velcro on the back of pictures you can stick them directly on the wall without needing to make a hole. You could even stick yourself onto the wall to watch a movie no need for a couch, put the flat screen tv as high on the wall as you want since its also got a velcro backing. No need for shelves just put velcro on anything that needs it and stick it to the wall, climb up and grab a book.-- Gulherme, Nov 09 2002 This will be big on the first civilian space station.-- 2 fries shy of a happy meal, Nov 09 2002 - bit worried when you say *everything*-- po, Nov 09 2002 Seems like hooks and loops on everything would help keep the blankets in place at night.-- _Mowgli_, Nov 09 2002 Fishbone for run-on sentences.-- snarfyguy, Nov 09 2002 it would keep the cat from knocking things over at night.-- WhiteWiz, Mar 02 2004 Great idea! I do this to a certain extent already in my room at school. i have two velcro (hook-and-loop fastener) strips each about a foot and a half long stuck on the wall at a comfortable height next to my desk. One has rulers, pencils, pens, calculator etc. all with a velcro strip round. The other i velcro empty coke bottles to filled with water/juice etc. I love it for the amount of desk space it saves.-- Pirate Nozz, May 03 2004 I love this!
