Tackle your To Do list Any DO Android App

Any.DO is one of the simplest and amazing design of any to-do list app on the market. Any.DO app let users dictate or type tasks under headers like "today," "tomorrow" and "someday," categorize them as personal or professional and add additional notes, alerts and names of friends participating.


Any.DO is among the most popular to-do list apps for Android and currently has "millions" of daily users, according to the company. Any.DO is also updated with a new feature called Moment, which prompts users to manage and update their to-do list once each day. At whichever time you choose to schedule it, Any.DO will automatically ask you to "take a moment to plan your day".

Any.Do is an amazing, simple, functional to-do list app that just works. There aren’t a bunch of hoops to jump through, users can enjoy a minimal UI, and it’s just very easy to use.

Of course, Any.Do could be used as a simple grocery list, or for many other purposes. But if you’re looking for a great to-do list app, look no further. I’ve been blown away by the simplicity and usefulness of Any.Do, and it’s going to remain installed on my devices for quite some time. If you’d like to give Any.Do a try for yourself, download it.

Exclusive Interview with Dominique Browning Giveaway!

We are so fortunate to be able to speak to Dominique Browning, former editor of House & Garden Magazine!

.

Since House & Garden, Dominique has been very busy writing books and recently joined the world of blogging. Her new book, Slow Love - how I lost my job, put on my pajamas and found happiness, is a wonderful touching memoir of her journey after leaving House & Garden and her steps toward self discovery. With thoughtful, honest insights she shares her struggle toward self awareness and peace. You celebrate her small triumphs, and share her fears as she moves forward into new, uncharted territory. Traveling along with her you are able to also slow down and rediscover the wonder and beauty of the world around us. Her words resonated so strongly with me that I just couldnt put the book down. I loved it!

So imagine how thrilled I was when Dominique was able to share with us a few more of her thoughts and insights on design and enjoying the process.

WD: You have been watching home design trends for many years. What do you consider timeless and classic?

DB: Ive decided it doesnt have to do with style or period--things Baroque and things ultra modern can be classic. It has to do with integrity: things well made, and designs to themselves, fully exploring and expressing what they are. So, an elegant modern sofa by Billy Baldwin looks great now, and did fifty years ago. And works in a contemporary room, or in a room full of Fine French Furniture. WD: What is the most favorite room in your home -what details make it so special to you?

DB: Any room that has books in it, and a comfortable place to read. The details I crave: a table near a chair for that cup of tea or glass of wine. A soft, thick throw for my knees, or around my shoulders. A jewel of a pillow to brighten the air, and fabric that is not scratchy or irritating. And, finally, what I call an intimate landscape nearby--some small configuration of vase, sculpture, stone or birds nest--anything, found or precious or both, that your eye can rest on, and your imagination can wander over.

WD: What are your favorite places to find inspiration for both your home and garden?

DB: I LOVE consignment shops, and have found treasures galore in what people are casting off, particularly if they happen to be in wealthier neighborhoods!

WD: With the struggling economy and many home owners having to stay longer in their homes than they may have wanted; what advice would you give to them regarding refreshing their spaces?

DB: Staying longer in a home would never be my problem! The longer you are home, the better your house becomes. Keep adding things you love, and they dont have to be purchased. They can be found objects, from walks in the woods or on the beach. Of course, an ever-changing pile of photography books goes a long way. And so does simply reupholstering ONE armchair. Or, getting a new set of towels in a vibrant color that you never would have used before. Amazing how small things make a big difference.

WD: How have you made the transition from critiquing rooms to really enjoying them?

DB: I have always enjoyed my rooms, and Im still critiquing rooms! Just silently, muttering under my breath! WD: So often I hear from friends and clients "I just want to get this room done!" What tips can you share to help us enjoy the process as well as the outcome?

DB: First, start ripping pages out of magazines, pages with ideas that catch your eye. Dont edit yourself ahead of time. If your pulse quickens, rip. Then look at what youve got, find shared themes, and head in that direction. NEVER keep working with someone who makes you feel insecure, dumb, frightened or confused. FIRE AWAY! Dont wait for a crisis. This is when breaking up is easy to do. And enjoy it at your own pace--some people need to work slowly, one piece at a time. Others want that "magic wand" feeling--everything done at once. Stay true to yourself. And do not let yourself get talked into living with something you dont like. You wouldnt do that with a partner, would you? So why would an armchair be any easier?

WD: One of the many themes in your new book is your fear of change and the unknown. What words of advice do you have for others who share those fears, and how can they make fear become a positive catalyst?

DB: Dont run from fear--thats what I learned hardest. Stay with it, examine it, look deep into that dark heart. And start learning and changing. I have some bad habits (like always beating up on myself, internally--that horrid little voice that says nothing is good enough) and those habits kept me in a semi-fearful state. So I have had to literally talk myself through them, and train myself to change my ways of thinking.

WD: What are the most important things you have learned about yourself while writing your new book and blog?

DB: I LOVE blogging! I resisted it for years and years, back in HG days! I guess I just wasnt ready for it. So I learned something very important, both in my new online writing and in writing the book. Dont hold back. Life is short. Make the most of whatever gives you pleasure.

One of things I have missed the most from House & Garden is Dominiques Editorial Letters. I am so thrilled that her new blog, slow love life brings her conversations and touching insights back to us again.

As I mentioned, Slow Love, is a wonderful book! We are so fortunate that Dominique has given Willow Decor a copy for one of our readers. (or you can purchase it here) Just visit her new blog, slow love life, and come back here and leave a comment. Next Sunday I will choose a random comment and send off the book. I know you will enjoy both her blog and her book as much as I have.

Finally a very special thank you to Dominique Browning for sharing her time and thoughts with us! So thrilled she part of the blog family!!

Shabby Chic Closing !

I entered the Shabby Chic store in Natick , Massachusetts today - and it was practically empty. Everything in the store was 50% percent off !

Shabby Chic Website

As you can guess most items were already gone. The women working said it was not confirmed but they may have to close their doors. They were not allowed to take orders and were advising customers that if they wanted to order something they should do it online.

Shabby Chic Website

They would not confirm, but suggested that some of the other stores across the country may be closing in the future. We hope not, as Shabby Chic is such an inspiration!  

Another bad sign of the state of our economy.

I did happen to pick up some really wonderful pillows, though!

IKEA 2011 Teen and Kids Room Design Ideas

Just recently, IKEA has developed its new 2011 catalog online. We have already demonstrated their new life drawings, dining room, kitchen and bedroom ideas. Today its time to see new ideas for the design of IKEA, children and adolescents rooms, and furniture to decorate their rooms.

IKEA products and design ideas of the rooms are very flexible and able to solve all the needs of adolescents and children. Space-saving storage boxes, to hooks and shelves clean, dress style and Real Simple. With good furniture, it is possible to implement all this and save space to have friends everywhere, even in a small room. Bunk bed and a separate computer table is fantastic for families with more than one child. For those who have several young children, IKEA has everything to make their bedtime a special moment. Lighting solutions are smooth and soft beds of the things they need more than anything. Of course, when it comes to children there is nothing more important than safety, then IKEA carefully design and test their products.

Check out some of these new design ideas IKEA below. For more examples and prices of products that you definitely should check their online catalog.
