For the Knitter's, the closest Missoni-esque blanket pattern I've found is the Zig and Zag Sock Yarn Baby Pram Blanket by Debbie Orr. It's a free pattern on Ravelry.com (also free). How To Make a Missoni for Target-Inspired Crochet Blanket Vickie Howell |

You can also use the cushions and pillows from your couch, or rugs. We used a number of rugs to protected our framed art/photos and they worked great. We used a lot of our large tupperware and pots and pans as boxes for breakables. Important documents and things that could not be lost went into extra suitcases. That way we knew anything in a suitcase was either staying with us, or contained something we might need. 5 Things in Your Home to Use as Packing Material |

I have a whole bunch of cups from Target. They are mostly clear and appear to have water in their sides with little toys floating around. They are durable (taken many throw downs!), easily to clean, and hold enough liquid for a tot/preschooler to drink comfortably. And I liked that they were somewhat attractive and fun.

I think it would be amazing to have a soaking bath at night and be able to see the night horizon. The stars are probably obscured by all the city lights so that won't be visible - but the feeling of the great expanse of sky above would be amazing. Rooftop Bathroom: Would You? Could You?! |

Where's the Cake? And Where's the Cake Now? by T. T. Khing. It's funny that they books says "translated from the Dutch" when they both don't any words in them. Great pictures, many different visual story lines. We enjoy making up new stories each time we "read" them. Visually Busy Books ala Richard Scarry? Good Questions |

This is by far my favorite knit blanket. One day I will make one of my own. I hope that I can create a similarly striking palette. A Handmade Home: Crochet Bed Coverings |

I really think it would help to have some context here - a pic of your current home would be great! The first thing that came to mind was a dusky blue and would nicely complement the aged wood. You could punch up the impact of the blue with some bright pillows or blanket, or make the chair blend more if left alone. Upholstery Choices for Grandmother's Rocker Makeover? Good Questions |

My initial reaction to pain the ceiling white and get a white table and white chairs - something very sleek and clean - metal legs that are slim preferably. I would also go with a white sideboard or bookcase if you need them, and then add some color in the way of a multi-color table runner that has both white and red. Dishes/vases/pitchers could be a mix of white and red with some aqua or yellow thrown in for a n accent. I would stay away from dark colors - dark espresso browns or black. I like the idea of a grey - but that would likely keep the room very "dark and deep" instead of lightening up with room in both feel and "look." How To Brighten Up Deep Red Dining Room?

Less *can* be more - but I have to say that I always looked forward to something new each time I logged on. But I will trust that this new diet will continue to provide ample reading/interesting material for me. Looking forward to it - bring it on!

I tend to keep containers of products that I use on a regular basis. Right now I have 5 round white plastic tubs from a thick cream that I use. I just peel off the labels - thankfully they didn't use a very adherent adhesive! - and matching storage jars. Apartment Therapy Chicago | Sources for Matching Containers On the Cheap |

My first impression considering that you want color was something in turquoise/green-blue. I think it would complement all your counters/cabinets. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | What Color Should I Paint My Kitchen/Dining Room? Good Questions |

I like the European philosophy - don't have too much, but what you do have is very high quality. I feel that it really helps cut down on clutter and there is something very satisfying about using that wonderful object that you really treasure. That being said, I find that I tend to spend money on those things that I will use everyday - a nice table, chair, jeans - and then try to repurpose or borrow those things that I use more infrequently.

A sleigh bed would work, or something with an upholstered headboard/footboard might fit with the soft, drapey look of the room. Apartment Therapy Los Angeles | Good Questions: Recreating a Sci-Fi Boudoir? Los Angeles |

Can anyone comment on the how easy it is to balance on one of these bikes? I wonder if it would feel wobbly or be hard to maneuver. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Madsen Precious Cargo Bikes |

Now this is what I've been looking for! However I'm moving to a bike un-friendly town - LA. I think I could get away with this on the Santa Monica beach, but I don't think this would be a safe option in the rest of the city. Drat!! Perfect for Austin, though!

I just ordered this memory game from a store called Kidostore based in Australia. I only got notice that they charged my credit card for the purchase, but email confirmation for the order. I also sent an email to them and haven't heard back. Anyone ever order from them or hear about them? I'm worried that they may have just charged my credit card, and I won't get the beautiful memory game. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | Memory Game by Vilac |

I just made some! Used the Wilton paste coloring and getting some rich colors. I'm thinking of making this for some gifts this year. Plus - we can use it to replace Cranium clay for our friends. Apartment Therapy ohdeedoh | How To: Homemade Playdough |

I saw album frames at Target the other day, too! I don't remember exactly what the colors/materals were, but being Target, I'm sure it's stylish. Apartment Therapy San Francisco | Close-Up!: Natalie and Nicholas' Framed Photos |

Frozen pineapple rings - they're cold and hard so they soothe the gums. And they contain and enzyme that helps soften the gums, too. Top Ten: Teethers |
