"At middle schools across the country, metal lockers that were long considered decorated if they had photos of friends or the teen heartthrob of the moment — Shaun Cassidy years ago, Justin Bieber today — have suddenly become the latest frontier in nesting."And you thought Somalians had it rough? What's a little anarchy and mass-starvation when compared with the trials of an upper-middle-class tween with a "zazzless" locker?
Want to design your own locker? Just head on over to Lockerlookz.com. (You know they're cool, 'cause they spell "looks" with a 'z.') I did!
I'm going with "Aqua Zebra on White" wallpaper, with the cutest black-zebra framed mirror mounted on the door--Oh, crap! All the mirrors are temporarily unavailable!!! Oh, well, I guess I can fill the space with some nice purple flowers. And, let's see. . . .In addition to some bins and a white dry erase board (with green and blue circles and dots), I'm going to go with a purple rug and black chandelier! With shipping and handling, this comes to just under $130!
And, have no fear: If you have the mental faculties of the typical middle-schooler, the website offers handy videos to walk you through the intricacies of placing pre-cut pieces of magnetized wallpaper onto metallic surfaces.
Now. . . if I only had a locker!
