Find a Toad: February 2014

http://findatoad.blogspot.com/2014_02_01_archive.html

Monday, February 3, 2014. Say The Words, Wear The Words. God knows what these are saying, but I'm sure it's charming. As you well know, jewelry is a big favorite as a Valentine's Day gift. Tiffany and Co certainly knows that, since my email and feeds have been inundated with advertising for expensive baubles. While diamonds are nice, they're impersonal. Why not immortalize your own words with a David Bizer audio file necklace or keyring? If you want one, better order it pronto at bza.biz.

Find a Toad: August 2013

Wednesday, August 28, 2013. Kid Decor with Class. It's not just a pretty flower. It can live, forever fresh and lovely, on your wall. The real plus is that these decals start at under $50 and peel on and off easily. That means no mural painter, no DIY stencils, and no smelly fumes in a kid's room. The dahlia above is about $95, and an entire wall decal will set you back a grand, which might be too grand for your progeny. At Wallflower. Links to this post. Monday, August 12, 2013.

Find a Toad: January 2014

Friday, January 31, 2014. Lie down beside the fire, Baby. Now that I've gotten all my crabby out regarding Valentine's Day (see previous post), the Toad is ready to give some solid romantic suggestions. A word of warning: your pets will go crazy for sheepskins. Cats will sleep on it in submersed circles; dogs will roll on their backs, scratching an itch, making unsavory noises. Did I mention these are machine washable? Starting at just $59. Links to this post. Thursday, January 30, 2014. Other thoughts: ...

Find a Toad: September 2013

Monday, September 30, 2013. Paper Shuffle No More with the Japanese Multi-Notebook. Aw, the doodles you'll draw. Perhaps it's the start of school, or the fact that there's about a billion projects going on at the Toad Abode, but I've found myself drawn to paper. And not just ordinary legal pads (which are practical, and completely have a place), but something that might wrangle all the inspirational brilliance deep thought has to offer. Can the "Notes" section of your smartphone deliver that? That's why,...

While there are some giftees who will only want shiny and new for the holidays, there are others who long for the elegantly preserved (and I don't mean jam). Great vintage is hard to find, and reasonably priced great vintage is rarer still. Pay DuVenay a visit for the vintage fan on your list. You might even pick up a bauble for yourself. At DuVenay.

Thursday, October 30, 2014. Watch Out: Autumnal Pumpkin Pillows Post Sitting Hazard. Ask a guest you hate to have a seat. We are officially in Fall! I would be totally excited, except for the fact that it's still about 80 degrees here in L.A., all my boots are still in storage, and I can't wear a sweater without it becoming a sauna situation. But I shall try to add to the Fall decor dissing peanut gallery. After all, it's pretty easy pickings: just check out these pumpkin pillows from Gump's.

Find a Toad: August 2015

Wednesday, August 19, 2015. Here's to The Hemp Underfoot. This is a crappy photo, but you can see the charm and appeal, right? The Toad has lots of opinions about floors and floor coverings. Basically, she's a snob who would rather have no rugs upon her floor than a cheap rug sullying it up. The result? Bare floors abound at the Toad's! This rug is a find, and it would be perfect in a vacation home close to the beach, if you have one. Otherwise, you can just buy the rug anyway and pretend. By Obelus Proj...

Find a Toad: March 2014

Monday, March 31, 2014. Thoughts on the Demise of DailyCandy. It's all gone, gone, gone. Frankly, I hadn't thought much about DailyCandy, the daily "in the know" online subscription service, in an age. It hasn't seemed relevant in a while. That's probably why it's now gone, a victim of no longer being the first in the know, competing with endless other sites for inside information. It simply got lost in the shuffle. Links to this post.

Find a Toad: April 2014

http://findatoad.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html

Wednesday, April 23, 2014. Spring into Spring with A Wacamole Planter. That's one funny planter. I'm not sure we really had a winter here in Los Angeles, but now spring is definitely here. I've already started planting my food stuffs, like a Thai chili pepper plant, dill, and chives (I plan on making a lot of smelly food). Naturally, these are not at bargain basement prices. Wacamole planters start at around $50 a pop. But just think of the springtime giggles they'll evoke, At Wacamole. Links to this post.
