Fresh Prince
"My skin is hard when it comes to my music. But with my movies, I'm still a virgin in a lot of ways. I'm not used to being shot down for no reason." Will Smith
Grammy winning rapper and accomplished actor Will Smith first came to recognition as the Fresh Prince while forming a popular rapper duo with DJ Jazzy Jeff. The duo earned praise with the single Summertime (1991) and the album He's the DJ, I'm the Rapper (1988), which spawned the hit singles Parents Just Don't Understand (1989) and Girls Ain't Nothing But Trouble. The Fresh Prince also gained rave reviews from MTV with his singles Gettin' Jiggy Wit' It (1998), Just the Two of Us (1998), and Miami (1999).
As an actor, Smith rose to popularity while portraying himself in the mega hit television series The Fresh Prince of Bel Air in 1990. He later received more attention acting in such films as Six Degrees of Separation (1993), Independence Day (1996, with Jeff Goldblum), Men in Black (1997, sequel in 2002), and Wild Wild West (1999). Smith continued to earn publicity when he starred in the biopic Ali (2001), Bad Boys I & II (1995 and 2003), as well as I, Robot (2004) and Hitch (2005).
The African-American actor, standing 6' 2" inches tall, was listed as
one of People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People in The World in 1998. He married actress Jada Pinkett Smith (Niobe in the Matrix
movies) on December 31, 1997.
Charming Will
Childhood and Family:
William Christopher Smith Jr. was born on September 25, 1968 toxparents William C. Smith Sr. (refrigeration engineer) and CarolinexSmith (school-board employee). The second of four children, Will hasxtwo sisters, Ellen Smith (twin of Harry; born in 1971) and Pam Smithx(born in 1964), and one brother, Harry Smith (twin of Ellen, born in 1971).
Born and raised in the middle class community of West Philadelphia, Will attended the Overbrook High School in Winfield, Pennsylvania, in which he was nicknamed Prince by his teacher for his charm. Bright student Will also signed up with the high-status Julia Reynolds Masterman Laboratory and Demonstration School in Philadelphia and later turned down a scholarship for the Massachusetts Institute of Technology after deciding to take his music career seriously.
During the filming of A Different World (1987) in 1991, Will met actress Sheree Zampino (born on November 16, 1967) and married her on May 9, 1992. The couple has one son, Willard C. Smith III (a.k.a. Trey Smith, born in December 1992) but later divorced in 1995. "You're so much stronger when your partner is strong. I honestly believe there is no woman for me but Jada. Of all the women I've met, and there've been a few, no one can handle me the way Jada does. Once you feel someone locked in on you, it's no contest. As fine as other women can be, as tempting sexually, I'm not going anywhere. This is it. I can't imagine what anyone else could offer." Will Smith
On an audition for The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990), Will met and
fell in love with actress Jada Pinkett Smith (born on September 18, 1971). The pair exchanged wedding vows in Baltimore on New Years Eve
in 1997. They have two children, daughter Willow Camille Reign Smith (born on October 31, 2000) and son Jaden Christopher Syre Smith (born
July 8, 1998).
Men in Black
"I love being black in America, and especially being black in Hollywood." Will Smith
Having been rapping since age 12, Will Smith, under the name of The Fresh Prince, started his demo recordings with aspiring rapper Jeff Townes (a.k.a. DJ Jazzy). The duo introduced their first record, Rock the House, in 1987 with the hit single Girls Ain't Nothing but Trouble. They finally gained wide recognition in 1988 with their Grammy winning album, He's the DJ I'm the Rapper (was certified double platinum), which spawned the hit single Parents Just Don't Understand.
In 1990 Will entered the Hollywood scene. After appearing in his first TV movie, the romance-comedy The Perfect Date (1990), writer Benny Medina pointed him to the lead role of himself in the NBC's long-living series The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air (1990-1996). The show was an instant hit and helped Will catapult his name toward the spotlight. On portraying himself in The Prince of Bel-Air, Will admitted, "I was trying so hard. I would memorize the entire script, then I'd be lipping everybody's lines while they were talking. When I watch those episodes, it's disgusting. My performances were horrible."
Will subsequently graced the big screen, debuting with Marc Rocco's feature drama, Where the Day Takes You, in 1992. He followed it up with the acclaimed 1993's film, Six Degrees of Separation, in which he received praise for portraying the character of Paul. Will also appeared in the film Made in America (1993) and lent his voice in the animated series Happily Ever After: Fairy Tales for Every Child (1995).
Meanwhile, Will continued to rap and released the disc, Home Base, in 1991, which spawned the chart's hit single Summertime. The single earned Will and DJ Jazzy their first Grammy award. Two years later, in 1993, the duo launched the poor-received album Code Red. "Women have never liked me. Until I ran with my shirt open in Bad Boys, I was not anybody's first choice." Will Smith
A better role came in 1995 when Michael Bay cast Smith as Martin Lawrence's partner, Det. Mike Lowrey, in his blockbuster action-comedy Bad Boys, which he later starred again in its second installment in 2002. Soon afterward, Will was offered a string of distinguished roles in many major films, including Captain Steven 'Steve' Hiller in Roland Emmerich's sci-fi action film Independence Day (1996, starring Bill Pullman) and as Tommy Lee Jones' partner, Agent Jay, in Barry Sonnenfeld's adaptation of Lowell Cunningham's popular comic Men in Black (1997, he also sang), which he later reprised the role in its sequel in 2002. Smith also starred as Robert Clayton Dean in Tony Scott's thriller, Enemy of the State (1998), and as Captain James 'Jim' West in Barry Sonnenfeld's western-comedy Wild Wild West (1999, teamed with Kevin Kline and Salma Hayek).
Always a rap artist, The Fresh Prince released his solo debut album, Big Willie Style, in 1997, which contained the hit singles Miami, Just the Two of Us (with son Trey), and Getting Jiggy Wit It. In 1999, he launched the CD Willennium as well as Men In Black and the Wild Wild West soundtracks.
In the new millennium Will was given several title roles, including one in Robert Redford's adaptation of Steven Pressfield's novel, The Legend of Bagger Vance (2000, costarring Matt Damon and Charlize Theron). He also portrayed legendary boxer Muhammad Ali in Michael Mann's biography movie Ali (2001, also starring Jamie Foxx and Jon Voight).
During 2004, Will could be seen in Alex Proyas' adaptation of Isaac Asimov's book, I Robot, and his voice can be heard in the animated movie Shark Tale. As for 2005, Will's fans can watch him portraying the title role in Andy Tennant's romantic comedy Hitch (costarring Eva Mendes). Smith will star in the upcoming films, Tonight He Comes, and Affirmative Action (costarring Ben Affleck).
Successful Will Smith once commented, "People laugh, but if I set my mind to it, within the next 15 years, I would be president."

That is the question!
And it comes up a lot in my safety workshops with parents.
"Is it politically correct?"
"Doesn't it make you look like you're treating your child like a dog?"
"What about those snarky looks from passers by?"
My answer is simple… there are times when using a SAFETY HARNESS in a large crowd or public space can save you a lot of panic, fear, and anxiety. And sometimes, it can come in awfully handy, especially if you have a young child who just doesn't get the "stay next to mommy" concept when you're out and about.
Case in point: A few years ago my friend Juliette took her 3 year old daughter to the mall to go Christmas shopping. Translation: Boring grownup task! Little Ava has the energy most people never know unless they've downed several double espressos. The kid was fast… and a prankster. Restless and bored, she thought it would be delightful to play a little game of hide & seek, as she dashed underneath the dresses on a long rack at Macy's. It never occurred to her that this wasn't okay, because SHE could SEE her mom from where she was hiding. In the span of about 5 minutes, Juliette almost lost her mind. She looked around, called out for Ava, who didn't answer because when you're hiding the whole point is to make the other person keep looking! After a little more frantic yelling and searching by nearby shoppers, Ava popped out and shouted "Here I am!" Juliette swears her hair turned snow white that day, and after that incident, she vowed to reconsider the harness idea.
IMHO, there is nothing wrong with using one of those cute safety backpack/harnesses from time to time, especially if you have a child who is easily distracted, a wanderer, or simply super-curious about everything whenever you're out at busy places. Obviously you'll use common sense. You probably don't need it when you and child run into McDonald's, but at larger venues with crowds of people, sights and sounds, it's not a bad idea. In a busy area where there is so much going on, even parents can easily get distracted; same as kids can. That little "lion or tiger" backpack/harness can be cute and fun, especially when smart parents make wearing it feel like a playful game.
And, BTW, did you know that a lot of kids actually like them, too? Because it allows them a little more freedom to walk around and check things out. They don't have to constantly hold your hand or stand by your side bored to death because you're sifting thru a sales rack.
Maybe it's the word "leash" that fr+aks people out. Stop calling it a leash! And really, you're not treating your child like the family pet if you use one on occasion—puleeeeeze!
We use strollers, even with our toddlers sometimes. No one flips out and thinks "OMG I'm unnaturally constraining my child". We use car seats. No one flips out and thinks "I'm treating my child like prisoner, inhibiting their need to move around and freely look out all the windows."
So here's the bottom line for me:
And lastly, maintain your sense of humor – it's not like you're putting your kid in a straight jacket or naming your offspring "Fido" for heaven's sake!

emd3737posted by jessamyn at 5:20 AM on November 17, 2009
I tried for a year to find a job, ideally a research job, but the best I've done is getting a part time sales associate job at Wal Mart. All the jobs that involve research from my experience want Master's degrees and/or 3.0 GPAs, neither which I have.
I should have mention I have done an independent research paper from my senior year that I presented at a student panel at a state economists association meeting. I'm not sure if it's enough that it really helps me tremendously.
Not to hijack the thread but any suggestions how I would go about contacting a professor to more or less become my advocate?
Everyone else, thanks but I really do want to go to graduate school. I'd rather get my Master's first to see if I can handle graduate school. More appropriately, there's not much economics I can do with my degree as it stands and the best my bachelor's has gotten me is a part time job selling jewelry at Wal Mart, which isn't something I spent 4 year and $120,000 in school to do.

This is a hotel that takes pride in all it does. Cutting edge design and technology with an environmental conscience. Enthusiastic staff, first class food. May 2011
"Really Fab" - I came along with my partner who was attending a three day conference in Bournemouth. We loved the hotel. It was extremely well run with delightful staff; nothing was too much trouble. We had a luxury double room and probably had the most comfortable nights sleep whilst we were there than we had had in a long time; very comfortable bed and lovely room.
Breakfasts were delicious; food prepared and cooked to a very high standard, Breakfast room nice and airy. The Bar area was well staffed and very comfortable.
As our stay went on, we appreciated more and more the high standard that was practised at this beautiful Hotel.
Will definitely stay there again!
Would recommend this hotel for any one looking for something a bit different in Bournemouth - great location, nicely furnished and great coffees! May 2011

That has to be a joke. A decent book and an ok if different movie version somehow turned into this steaming pile of horseshit miniseries. The detcontamination was just an excuse to see Drew Carey's girlfriend's side boob all soaped up. A poor man's Jimmy Smits can't emote and little Ricky Schroeder's iconic line, "If you don't ask, I won't tell" failed to bring any life into this train wreck from which I will never get my 4 hours of life back.

by newc0253
why?<p> because it follows the same David E Kelley formula as Single Female Lawyer. A great first season, followed by the same old tired schtick over and over and over: take main character, cast of funny supporting characters with various clever tics, cut between storylines dealing with topical issues featuring pathos and whimsy, but sum it all up with a little bit of passionate and or serious writing that makes us all love the noble business of the law, yawn, retch.<p> Yes, Spader's a great actor. Yes, Denny Crane is a funny character. But, no, it's neither great nor funny to see them perform the same dog & pony trick week after week after fucking week.<p> As most other posters have already pointed out, it makes a mockery of awards to nominate mediocre shows like Boston Legal and Grey's Anatomy and sideline truly excellent television like the Wire or BSG.<p> The only thing Boston Legal deserves at this stage is a quick death.<p>

of anything of the year is going to leave out a multitude of favorites.

And cult classics like X Files and Buffy never really got their due, much like Galactica nowadays. Hey its all a glorified popularity contest anyway...

accordingtojimrulz, I do watch Boston Legal
by jim
have watched every episode since the first one. For 2 seasons it was one of my favourite shows. I was baffled how it got nominations in the Drama category as, to me, it was the funniest show on televsion. Meanwhile Desperate Housewives was somehow classified a comedy. Although I have heard that DH is a satire. I guess no one bothered to tell the actors, writers, directors, or ABC's marketing dept. But I digress.<p>Boston Legal has become tired. It has not grown from its first season. The only difference between seasons (even during seasons) is the shuffling of cast members. It makes it difficult to care about new regular characters when they may be gone in 8 episodes.<p>The best part of the show is Alan & Denny. But that too has pretty much run its course. I said before the show has not grown and it is most evident in these two characters. There are no repercussions for their actions. There is talk, but nothing comes of it. Whatever they go though they never seem to learn anything and are the same characters week after week, season after season. <p>You referred to the Supreme Court episode as an example of how good the show can be. It was that episode that made me begin to question if I would tune in again next season. Alan is told not to stray from the case as the Justices have little patience for grandstanding. What does he do? He goes off on a tangent about how impartial the Justices are. Whether they are or not is irrelevant. He jeopardizes his case, and the life of the man he is defending, so he (rather Kelly, or whoever wrote it) can get up on his soapbox and say "shame on you". There was nothing "fair" or "balanced" about it. It was a one-sided argument.<p>The show was good in its first 2 seasons. It has since become a parody of itself. The eccentricities of the characters have gone from being unique and fresh to different for the sake of being different. Quirks over quality. <p>The show, after four seasons, is no longer unique. The same can be said of the characters. Everyone seems content to simply maintain the status quo.

by MaverickRipper
But how the fuck does The Wire get ignored YET again? Season 4 is probably the best Drama TV has ever seen, and while Season 5 was probably one of the weaker seasons, it's still worlds better then some shit FX managed to churn out. Really I can't come up with a logical explanation how this show managed to get zero emmy nods for best drama other then the fact that its either to real or sheds light on problems that make the committee uncomfortable. Oh, and Curb is hilarious. I find Entourage entertaining, but it's not even on the same level of Curb or The Office in terms of making you laugh out loud.

But when you throw in James Spader and Christian Clemenson, the nomination is even more deserving.

I seriously lol at anyone who thinks Boston Legal is a better DRAMA then The Wire. But unfortunately the Wire seems to be to realistic and dramatic for the Emmy committee and thus it works against the show. Not like Ed Burns or David Simon's really give a shit anyway. But I guess it all ultimately comes down to what you consider a "drama." It seems like the emmy committee thing its the same old recycled shit with a new coat of paint.

Emmys = Meaningless
by Screwbini
So "Boston Legal", a show that at best used to be occasionally amusing, is more deserving of an Emmy nomination than "The Wire"? What possible measure of quality could lead one to that result? Answer - NONE!!! (And by the way, that goes for all of the other shows nominated for best drama - none of them rise to the level of excellence that The Wire achieved, even in its weakest season.) The Emmys suck!

Boston Legal vs. The Wire.
by Executor
The Wire was the best show on TV. Period. But I can see why it wasn't nominated. Watching a single episode (as the Academy does) or even a few episodes doesn't give you the scope and breadth of it's brilliance, which you really need to see the entire season (or really, the show from S1) in order to appreciate. It's like reading the middle couple of chapters from a book...you could see that the writing is good, but may not get what all the fuss is about. (Which is also why I think the brilliant FNL suffers in the noms also...although Kyle Chandler being overlooked is a crime.)<p>That said, I'm also a huge fan of Boston Legal. As accordingtojimrulz and others have stated, its writing is amazing, Spader, Shatner, and Clemenson are top notch, and it is one of the few shows (Wire and BSG are the only other ones that come to mind) that address any sort of social or political commentary. Sure, the characters haven't changed. Sure, there is no overarching plot or mystery to make it a serial like Lost or BSG. But watching any one episode, there is a quality of writing and acting, along with amusing and relevant exploration of socio-polital themes, that is unsurpassed by any "stand-alone" weekly show.<p>

can you find any other rational explanation of why The Wire got hosed all these years? Especially today, in its final chance at Emmy drama series glory?

Heavy sigh...
by toshiro-solo
It's nothing new, and it's been noted here many times, but - the lack of attention paid to The Wire really and truly does show the Emmys as short sighted. I know that judging artistic merit is inherently subjective, but - I just don't see how you can look at The Wire as a cohesive body of work and not recognize that it's a unique and important achievement in the medium of television. Anyone have any ideas about WHY it never gets the Emmy love even though it does get the critical respect it deserves? Does it require too much investment? Is it just not "showy" enough? I don't get it... Loved that show SO much.
July 17, 2008, 2:19 p.m. CST
A lot of good stuff, but some definite oversights...
by DanielKurland
I don't see how Two and a Half Men can be up for Best Comedy and How I Met Your Mother is not. Glad to see Breaking Bad and The Wire at least get SOME recognition, and hopefully Breaking Bad will get more next year. I wish Silverman was up for Best Actress, and Venture Bros. goes without saying. Also, South Park better win because Imaginationland is leagues above Blue Harvest.

for Twin Peaks. Characters like that come along once in a lifetime. Also glad to see the My Name is Earl love is wearing off. Also, the latest episode of Weeds deserves Emmys for like four different things.

Mini-Series noms. set up for "John Adams" to win
by MGTHEDJ
Gang, they nominated "Andromeda Strain" and "Tin-Man" as cannon fodder for John Adams. The odds a few weeks ago were good it would win, but now it's a lock.<p>I knew David E. Kelley would get his show nominated, thus shutting out The Wire. The guy has too many friends in high places in Hollywood. Hope this is his last year nominated. After he butchered "Life on Mars" he needs to sit on the sidelines for a year or 2. Maybe then BSG can sneak in.-----later-----m

by performingmonkey
Also, his face when Alex is killed. Alan Dale should have a nom for best guest for his cool scene in that episode. They should get extra marks because that scene was shot in London due to Dale doing Spamalot in the West End at the time. Emerson and the crew flew over there. GALACTICA!!! Give them some awards!!!!!!!!

Giamatti should win hands down.<p> An American Crime sucked, Keener was trying to be the chick from Monster. The real life Gertrude Baniszewski was a witch. Ellen Page's role was reduced to a footnote, and it seemed like the filmakers had a hard on for the criminals.
July 17, 2008, 3:26 p.m. CST
John Adams a winner as well.

Based on the inept competition. Since the last of BSG aint till next year, maybe it'll get it's due then.

Bryan Cranston should win for Breaking Bad
by Prof. Pop-Cult
I say this as a fan of LOST and BSG. You really have to check out Breaking Bad, if you haven't already, to know why Cranston most deserves the Best Actor award. I'm disappointed that Breaking Bad was not nominated for Best Drama.

Vote for Rickles, ya hockey puck!
by I. Ratzkywatzky
Don Rickles was nominated for an Emmy. I think my calendar must be wrong. Is it 1978? I love the Rickles, Mad Men, 30 Rock, and Cranford nominations. I also agree that The Venture Bros. is better than any comedy or animated program on the list (or any other show currently on television).
July 17, 2008, 5:42 p.m. CST
Boston Legal and Two and a Half Men
by zooch
are the two most overrated pieces of shit tv shows in television history. Let's hope LOST and Michael Emmerson win! Look for John Adams to sweep every nominated catagory. Also give an emmy to Laura Dern for Recount. Mary McDonall got robbed. Also P.Diddy got nominated!

Breaking Bad really shouldn't be in drama series
by Pennsy
as much as limited series; it was on for only 7 episodes. Cranston, I say again, got the nomination because of his work on Malcolm in the Middle and for no other reason. Too many usual suspects get a free pass as it is...

FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS and IN TREATMENT were the two best dramas
by SmokeFilledTavern
but HOMICIDE: LIFE ON THE STREET was the greatest series ever. I think HOUSE is the worst series on the drama list. I haven't seen much of DAMAGES yet, but MAD MEN is outstanding and should win out of that lot. THE WIRE should have won everything two seasons ago. BOSTON LEGAL has terrific writing and two of the best characters in contemporary television, and although it shouldn't win...it deserves most of the nods/wins its garnered. I just think that FRIDAY NIGHT LIGHTS was the most overlooked show. Kyle Chandler impresses me far more than Hugh Laurie.
July 17, 2008, 7:05 p.m. CST

by DanielKurland
It's the definition of seriousness and dramatic. No other show this year made me sadder and feel more compassion for real characters. Glad to see In Treatment got some nominations, but I would have loved to have seen Josh Charles get one.

a third of a regular season. Therefore, it should have been in the limited series category, maybe.

Glad To See The Love For Mad Men, But . . .
by JohnDrake
I'm a little surprised by which actors got nominated from Mad Men. I mean, John Hamm I get - he's the best thing on television right now. But the best supporting nod should have gone to Vincent Kartheiser, who is absolutely brilliant as Pete Campbell. Likewise, January Jones should have received a best actress nod for her role as Betty Draper - she really has the toughest role on the program, and she's handled it amazingly well. Hendricks has been great as Joan and I love her, but the best supporting actress nod should really have gone to Maggie Siff, who brought so much life to the character of Rachel Menken. As others have already noted, Galactica gets shafted once again, not receiving a best series nom (even a weak season beats most series), and the lack of a nomination for Mary McDonnell is criminal (especially when Mariska Hargitay and Kyra Sedgwick are being nominated for far less challenging work - and Holly Hunter for "Saving Grace"? Please!).

Its been a whole day and no one has noticed. Christina Hendricks and TR Knight were NOT nominated. I don't know why they're up there under Supporting Actor/Actress Drama.

Why the Wire was snubbed.
by billypilgrimisunstuck
sorry for the doublepost. For any awards show, the voting system will ALWAYS be flawed. Not because of the method that is implemented, but because the voters will ALWAYS be 50+ geezers that miss Cheers and Rosanne. That's the simple nature of it. But ok, I lied it has to do something with the voting system. The nominees are determined by a 50/50 combo between popular vote and a special screening for judges. The popular vote will obviously weigh heavily on the fan favorites (which is why Grey's Anatomy was favored to push out Lost, despite it's HORRIBLE response in the special judge panel). The special judge panel is supposed to be there to weigh the "quality" of the show, and here's the tricky part, each show gets to pick ONE episode to present. Anybody know why Lost was snubbed in the past two years? Two non self contained story lines (Man of Science, Man of Faith in season 2; Through The Looking Glass in season 3). This season, Lost chose The Constant (a largely self contained story with an emotionally resonant catharsis as the payoff), and low and behold, Lost made it back again. The Wire, despite being one of the BEST shows on TV, did not make it cause it chose the season finale, which is largely not self contained. The voting process needs to be changed so this "special panel" can view the WHOLE DAMN SEASON. Sit down for two weeks, get some snacks, and watch the whole damn show before you go off saying what is the best and what isnt.
July 19, 2008, 11:45 a.m. CST
Yet again, the Emmy are revealed as a total sham
by password.swordfish
Maybe that's too far. I'm thrilled for Mad Men, Lost was stellar this year, and 30 Rock is definitely the best comedy on TV. But no The Wire noms (apart from a single writing nod) = a complete joke. Apart from the snub for best drama, is there anyone out there as engaging or dynamic as Micheal Williams or Andre Royos? Fuck the Emmys right in their ear. Luckily for me, I don't give a shit if awards care about my shows, but it would have been nice for the writers/actors/creators to finally get their obscenely overdue recognition. Bah. Also Billy, I totally agree with you about the extrememly flawed voting process, but I still think any individual episode of the Wire stands heads above derivative shit like Boston Legal. It kind of scares me that the people voting can't see that.

The Peel-and-Stick Makeover:
Wallpapered Fridge
Aunt Peaches
Light fixtures can be changed. Colors can be painted over. Ugly floors can be covered. They're not all easy projects for renters who've found themselves in apartments cramping their style. But they're all do-able, and importantly, reversible. Just like this solution for covering ugly appliances with removable peel-and-stick wallpaper.
To be clear, Peaches of DIY and Lifestyle Blog Aunt Peaches didn't have an ugly fridge. But her decision to cover it in a bright patterned wallpaper is inspiration to all of us living with 1970's-era avocado fixtures.
It's all possible thanks to removable wallpaper. It's not a new solution, per se (the image of a wallpapered fridge directly above is from a 2007 Apartment Therapy post), but the new crop of removable wallpaper is light years ahead of its predecessors with bright colors, modern patterns, and easy-to-stick-and-re-stick adhesives. It's sold frequently in small panels or sheets, making your mini-dishwasher recovery project doable and affordable.
Peaches used Chasing Paper, but you can get the same look with paper from Hygge & West, Tempaper, Wall Candy Arts, Murals Your Way, or anywhere on Etsy. You can even make your own removable wallpaper with online site Spoonflower (below).
Once you have your paper in-hand, making over your fridge, dishwasher, or anything else is as easy as putting Lisa Frank stickers on a Trapper Keeper. Peel, stick, lift it up and re-stick if you need to line up patterns, then admire your not-avocado-colored refrigerator. The adhesive comes off the appliance easily when it's time to move out, so your security deposit is safe.

I did this in my last apartment. The fridge was covered in small burn marks and yellowing (supposedly from a smoker). I used a patterned contact paper from the Dollar Tree, and the whole project only cost me $2. I only covered the bottom (fridge) half, so the pattern wouldn't overwhelm the space. One tip I have is to make sure you remove all door handles and hardware before you start. Use a ruler or something else with a smooth edge to get the bubbles out. The pop of color in my kitchen was awesome, and it came right off when I moved out. See my project here: https://www.dropbox.com/s/fsywu0jjsf8khvx/0_1r.jpg
How durable is peel-and-stick wallpaper and contact paper, especially at the edges? I am considering covering a rental kitchen backsplash (it's black laminate - boring, dark, and shows every splatter).
I've got a big piece of fabric covering the bottom fridge door in my current rental. The warm water + starch + fabric trick works on refrigerators just as well as any other surface. I didn't even know there was a such thing as removable wallpaper when I did it, but I love the idea either way.
You can also buy stainless steel contact paper to give your appliances a stainless steel look. I think you can even buy very thin rolls of actual metal to stick on, but I didn't find it in a 2 minute google search.
Here's just one maker among many:
My fridge isn't even ugly, but this is why I'm eventually buying the TARDIS sticker for it.
@Maggie M - did you have problems getting the paper off when you left your last place? I have the same concern as @chieromancer.
I am moving into a rental with the ugliest kitchen and am excited to try these no paint options out! If I have success I will be sure to share before and after pics :)
Meh, I've never seen one of these that I thought worked. It's like the "creative" attempts to hide TVs -- the end result always seems much more obtrusive and awkward than the simple plain appliance.
Wow, am I alone in thinking this MAKES the appliance ugly, rather than improving it? Obviously NOT for the minimalist or the serene uncluttered kitchen style...
I planked my fridge, now you can barely find it.
I love the fridge!
We looked at a house with those 80s cupboards last fall. They'd taken the oak trim and painted a flat gray that pretended to be stainless steel colored. It was was nice looking. I wouldn't have known that's what they did if the realtor hadn't told me.
This is my fridge above. Thanks to AT for the feature!
Two things worth mentioning here…
*Not all removable wallpapers are created the same. Contact paper is a different animal all together. Just because something is "removable" doesn't mean it's appliance-friendly. If you really are considering this, find a low-tack and water-resistant paper. Standard removable adhesive could behave oddly when stuck on a machine that generates warmth for a long period of time. You will save a lot of time/money by picking the right paper in the first place.
* As someone who lived with an avocado fridge (and loved it! – as featured in my former AT house visit: http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/peaches-wonderfully-whimsical-bungalow-house-tour-167994 ) I think it's awesome when people see an appliance as something worthy of celebration – not just some giant machine that sits in the middle of the room. I would love to see more! Where are the painted washing machines and sharpie-fied toasters of this world?!
What about fabric and liquid starch instead of wallpaper/contact paper?
Yayy!! Such a great idea. Purchasing some removable wallpaper this weekend. Moving into a new apartment in 2 weeks and boy oh boy are my appliances ugllyyy! Thanks Aunt Peaches for the extra tips, I'll keep that in mind while shopping :)
All great ideas! I love this blog! Just wanted to offer one more- O'Signs, Inc. can take your digital image and make an adhesive vinyl for you to put on your fridge or table or whatever. So if you don't want to be limited by what is out there, we can help you make your own custom "wrap"- you can add graphics and text as well. We have a couple of examples at http://www.osignsinc.com/wall-floor-signage/
I did this in the 70"s.
It came off easily and left the surface clean. I did not have any of the problems that other people are reporting. Some additional details: My fridge was a standard white refrigerator. The contact paper I used was intended as drawer/shelf liner. I don't know if that has a different adhesive, which might make the difference. I also only had it on the fridge for 6 months before I left my apartment.
I blogged about this theme a couple of years ago after buying this odd 1970s National Steel promotional booklet about decorating your 2nd fridge.
It does have some cool ideas.
"25 decorating ideas for your second refrigerator"
(blog is ad free)
In a rental, with a tragic kitchen...I used clear Rubbermaid drawer liner to collage the cabinets with colorful 50s food ads. When applied and smoothed-out...it is pretty much invisible. It was easy to work with, move around, and it didn't leave any residue at all. I cleaned it all the time--spatters wiped right off. I also encased the appliances...all good!
This is a great way to improve the look of any fridge. Thanks for the tips :)

I am so sorry, but I haven't been here for awhile -- my computer is down -- & I forget whether or not I thanked you for the photos you took. I certainly do appreciate you getting the photos of the Hoffman headstones. Thank you so much.
