Warning: My sister-in-law said open shelving is a mistake and I didn't listen

We were in my new kitchen in Cincinnati last year, right after I put up those trendy open shelves. She looked at them, then at my everyday plates, and said, 'You're going to be dusting those twice a week.' I laughed it off, thinking she was just being fussy. Fast forward six months, and she was completely right. Everything gets a fine layer of grease and dust, and my nice mugs look messy. Has anyone found a good-looking way to cover open shelves, or is the only fix taking them down?

Vent: I used to think my bullet journal had to be perfect or it was useless

Three years ago, I started my first journal and got so mad when I messed up a weekly spread. Last month, I saw my friend's journal in a coffee shop, full of crossed-out bits and notes in the margins, and she said it was the only reason she finished her project. So last week, I spilled tea on my March page and just wrote 'oops' next to the stain and kept going. It feels way better to just use the thing. How do you handle mistakes in your journal without starting over?

Beard trim upcharges at my go-to shop make zero sense to me

It's less work than a haircut, so why pay more?
