Skip Hop Foam Floor Tiles
Generally, foam tile mats are useful but undeniably ugly. These tiles will protect your floor, your kid’s head, and your design sensibility.

Portrait Commission with Diane Rollins Feissel
I hesitate to tell the world about her lest she become too busy to fulfill my gift requests, but Diane painted our wedding portrait, and it’s one of my very favorite things. We even joined forces with some friends last year to purchase a portrait as a wedding gift for some friends.
I can’t resist the charm of marking an important life transition with artwork. Diane’s portraits are touching gifts for any occassion, but an especially lovely gesture for weddings, new parents, or grandparents who would love a family portrait. You can even commission her and allow the recipient to decide on the image they’d like her to paint.
When it’s really important that you get it right, this is the way to go.

(Price varies by subject and size of the portrait.)

“What you see is the prize for the “best friend”-contest held yearly in most Finnish speaking schools since 1954. The best friend is selected by the winner’s classmates. To receive one you need to have been: glad, vigorous, reliable, friendly, orderly, helpful, empathic et-cetera…”
