one forum post suggests the following
"If you want to keep it simple, what about MS Paint?
Seriously, the easiest and safest solution to this is the GIMP.
(avoiding dependency hell)
Just create each item of furniture on a seperate layer (as simple as
going to "layers" and clicking "new layer", then that way, each item
is on a seperate sheet of acetate if you will, and they can all be
moved independently.
This also has the advantage that I've never had the GIMP fail to
install yet, even on Slack 9.1 it went like a dream, and you also have
an extensive availibility of information on the web."
Other hunting comes up with some of the follwoing ideas

A mouse trap, placed on top of your alarm clock, will prevent you from
rolling over and going back to sleep after you hit the snooze button.
