Regarding the floor lamp--does anyone have a manufacturer or source for it? I saw a table lamp in that style on Divine Design, loved it, and can't find it anywhere! Lovely space, Michelle! Apartment Therapy New York | House Tour: Michelle's Starter Home#comments#comments |

The Canadian Pine and White Sage scent is my favorite-smelling soap in the world. However, I was disappointed that the bar quickly disintegrated into a strange mush. The bar wasn't sitting in water--it was just damp from use. Too bad--the company, packaging, and scents are fantastic. Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Pangea Organics Soap at Cost Plus World Market |

Does anyone have a suggestion for an antifatigue mat that doesn't cost $100? It doesn't have to look good because I want to put it under a rag rug. Gel Pro Chef's Mat |

The U.S. National Arboretum in Washington, DC, has a great rotating collection of these stones, along with other "viewing stones." I visit frequently to check them out, and they're truly spectacular. There's even a program on them slated for Oct. But, if you can't make it to DC, it appears that Dr. Tom Elias is a good source for information. The National Bonsai Foundation, at the Arboretum, is also a great resource, as bonsai and viewing stones go hand-in hand. If you're ever in DC, the Arboretum is really a hidden gem in DC.

I've successfully stopped ants with a mixture of boric acid in a sugar solution. I soak a cotton ball in it and set it out on little squares of parchment paper near their trails. It works by initially attracting a bunch, who ingest the solution. The proportion is key, though, as you want them to live long enough to take it back to their queen and kill the colony. Do an internet search and you'll find plenty of recipes. And don't freak out when it initially attracts a ton of ants--they'll all be gone in two days! How To: Get Rid of Ants |

Great question! I am looking for a portable AC unit but they seem to receive dismal reviews across the board. Does anyone have a model they recommend--I really just need it to cool a couple of hundred square feet, and I do have a window to dump the hot air.
