This most excellent mod floor lamp was made by Raak in Holland in the 1960's and boy does it have some 60's styling going on. For $350 this collectors piece can be yours.

Grown-Up Furniture for Containing Toddler Clutter
No matter what I do to organize my house, the sad reality is that this is what my living room couch looks like at the moment.

Help Identify These Retro Egg-like Chairs?
Good Questions
Q: I recently won these chairs off of an eBay auction and I was wondering if the Apartment Therapy readers could identify them for me. The seller describes the label as a flame, and a "B." I know they are not Herman Miller (obviously), but any help in identifying them would be very much appreciated! I love their cute egg shape! The chairs pictured are not the exact colorway, but they are the same manufacturer and chair. Thanks in advance!

Do You Keep Menus from Dinner Parties Past?
We almost always try and take a copy of the menu when we eat out at fancy restaurants — it's a perfect memento of an evening that can be a bit hazy if there was more than one glass of wine involved. So why not do the same at dinner parties?
