Ha! I kind of like the look of all those threads on my design wall. Sort of like art.
I remember years ago reading that someone had vacuumed hers and since then, it hadn't "held things up" as well. I have always not vacuumed because of that.
I use the lint roller thing, whenever I decide "enough is enough." Though, now that I think about it, the thing about not vacuuming sounds just silly. How in the world could that make the design wall not hold things up?? Maybe I should not believe everything I have read...
