Target is collaborating with Feed USA to provide 10 million meals to children and families across America. “FEED began in 2006 when acclaimed model and activist Lauren Bush designed a bag to benefit the United Nations World Food Programme’s (WFP) School Feeding program. As a WFP Honorary Student Spokesperson, Lauren visited countries around the world in Asia, Latin America, and Africa where WFP is operating and was inspired by the plight of the people she met on her travels. She took a special interest in WFP’s School Feeding program, which feeds and educates hungry children. She first created the FEED 1 bag, a reversible burlap and organic cotton bag reminiscent of the bags of food distributed by WFP, to help raise funds and awareness around these school feeding operations. It was stamped with “FEED the children of the world” and the number ‘1’ to signify that each bag feeds one child in school for one year. And in 2007, FEED Projects LLC was founded by Lauren Bush and Ellen Gustafson to produce and sell these bags.”

I Want These

I have just returned from a week at the beach. Coastal South Carolina is paradise…except for the size of the bugs. I have to have these plates from the John Derian collection for Target. I think the Palmetto Bugs are a similar size!!!
I found myself scrolling through several pages of the John Derian site. There is a great deal of ‘food for thought’ about vintage design.
Conversation Starter or Stopper?

One of the tricks of the design trade is to create conversation seating. (Sectional sofas are a good example.) The Peacock chair by Dror Benshetrit for Cappellini would either start conversation or leave your speechless. Since the price tag is $6406 for one, I think a sectional is closer to my budget.
I love the idea that Dror Benshetrit designed a line for Target.
A Name from the Past

I can’t remember when I first heard the name ‘Liberty of London‘. I know I haven’t heard it for years. Well, this walk down memory lane is certainly worth the time. I think I’m going to head over to Target for a little retro addition to my wardrobe!!!
