I use this green oil that they sell in Chinese pharmacies - it's mainly made with menthol, but contains a few other oils as well. Not only does it make the mosquitoes go away (just put a few drops in a few dishes and put them around the area wherever you are), but in case you do get bitten, you can dab a drop directly on your skin, and the bite will heal. I always forget to bring any kind of repellent with me when i go out, but a dab when I get home makes the bites literally disappear completely within a few hours (provided you dabbed it on within 24 hours of the bite appearing).

The green oil doesn't actually say it's a mosquito repellent - it says it's for headaches, stuffy nose, achy muscles, etc., all of which it works for as well. It's pretty much a cure-all.

I'm with dallas10086 on this one - it could look nice if it weren't on the entire door. And in jewel-toned lush velvet/satin instead of the institutional white leathery material. And if the rest of the room actually coordinated well with it... which none of the rooms here do. But it could potentially look classy.

phillyMichelle, Target has a lamp that slighty resembles the lamp in the first picture, although it's considerably less sleek (but also less than half the price): http://www.target.com/Tripod-Floor-Lamp-58/dp/B001WS91ZE/ref=pd_ecc_rvi_1

Going back a little from the link posted by catspajamas, you can see it's labeled as a drawing by Jonathan Meader (http://www.jmeader.com/drawings/index.html). He seems to have received several grants/awards and had shows around the world, so maybe the bear made its rounds that way? The drawing of the actual bear is definitely the same as in the photo - just the placement is off a little, so I don't know.
