2) from art mind on etsy, father's day art
3) Ferrari 360 office chair from race chairs etsy 
4) beer soap - several brands available
5) pirates vs. ninjas chest set from goose grease on etsy
6) RMS Titanic - remote control ship
But I am sure none of these will be as good as those chips and soda!
Love ya - happy father's day!
Pottery Barn has gone very basic and very Americana….and WS has a lovely coral motif but still not what I am looking for.
So I started to surf and found a few other options that are nice – but have I become this picky that I still haven’t found the set I am looking for?
Macy’s
Crate & Barrel
Jonathan Adler
Smith and Hawken – really nice and they’re a heavy, durable melamine!!! Close but they look similar to the china I want to replace…..
Chat again soon from…..desperately seeking nice summer dinnerware
It's that time once again, where pancakes and coffee arranged with love and care arrive at your bedside on a tray with your favorite magazine. 
This is a wonderful idea I found on etsy.com. Why not surprise mom with one of these families made from paper mache and mounted on wooden bases. Hair color and style, skin tone, clothing style and colors are all up to your families’ specifics. 
Words, sayings or names can be written on the base. Middle Burg Folk Studio makes these truly one-of-a-kind gifts from photos of each subject. It can feature your entire family or just the kids – whichever you choose they are special!
I have always loved the silhouette, and for Mother’s Day there is no other gift like it! Fill a vacant wall with frames of the family or just the kids – whatever you decide it will be eye-catching!
Looking for something extra personal for mom, handmade (pardon the pun) gifts are always a hit. This one is really special and easy to do. Take a canvas for each child (and yourself too!), paint it if you want or leave it plain. Then apply paint to your hand – stamp the canvas and…..this is something she is sure to love!
As writing this I began to envision Angelina’s stacking collection of rings. I really like this idea, carrying on your finger a stack of rings that reminds you of each of your children. It ring encompasses the birthstone of that child’s birth. I think the idea is unique and really takes a mom back to where her journey began!
These are so beautiful. You can find them on esty.com from the seller Fanciful Form. 
They are made from a kind of air dry clay similar to cold porcelain. And the floral shapes are so soft, while still being eye-catching. This seller also has jewelry which is just as spectacular.
Vivienne Tam HP Digital Clutch. This gorgeous peony print from the designers spring collection covers a convenient and compact digital clutch – the perfect gift for the fashionista mom
I have to admit I have a thing for flip flops (I wish I could wear them 24/7), but these have to be a must have for me! Juicy Couture plush flip flop slippers with charm and all!
Delizioso - this line celebrates the Italian cuisine by featuring its four most often-used herbs: basil, sage, rosemary, and parsley.
Dinner Party - layer one these plates along with another of Rosanna’s other collections for the ultimate table top look.
La Mer – my favorite line, with images taken from authentic British turn-of-the-century botanical renderings of sea life. Each plate features a 24-karat platinum design accent. 
La Patisserie - These footed bowls, inspired by Victorian compotes, make versatile statement pieces, whether used separately or stacked to form an elegant tower. Fill them with pastries, flowers or fruit for a gorgeous centerpiece. 
Le Gateau - the modern interpretations of the iconic cut glass cake plates of 1920's America. These pieces have enough integrity to stand on their own, or work wonderfully together to make a striking statement when laden with cakes or hors d'oeuvres. 
Mediterranean Holiday - this colorful set features four popular Mediterranean coastal vacation spots: Majorca, Cannes, Santorini and Amalfi. Rendered in brilliant blue and green summer tones, they pair perfectly with the matching glass tumblers. 
Mixed Salad - printed with the recipes of four of the most delicious summer salads, these large bowls are perfect for a main-meal salad or as one component of a fabulous dinner party. 
Wish You Were Here - Each individually boxed mug depicts a scene from one of the most famous European beaches of the 1950's and a bathing beauty in period dress. 
As you sip your morning tea, escape to the glamorous beaches of France, Italy, Greece and Spain. 
This Easter, take hard-boiled eggs to new heights by embellishing them with lacy patterns. Once the eggs are dyed and dry, pile them in a large bowl to use them as a centerpiece. 
I got this inspiration from MS as well, but her directions were a bit much for me. I would use standard hard boiled eggs and add glittered stickers to them - there are so many great stickers options out there this would be an easy project for anyone to do!
Narrow ribbons and rickrack make instant egg decorations (just adhere with glue). For even easier decorating, look for self-adhesive fabric tape in pretty colors and fun patterns -- a great find from scrap booking supply stores.
These are really different and lovely to look at. It takes a while to dye them but I think they are worth it!
These have to be my favorite of all decorating styles – I love them in soft pastel colors.
