It took me months to figure out how to solve this unsightly problem. My "better half" thought I was nutty at first, but now he's pretty happy with the results (even though the wallpaper on the back is flowers, albeit masculine flowers). @Connie I think children's hand prints on canvas is a stunning idea.
