New Shop on Etsy - ThreeLittleGoblins

Just had to mention a new favorite shop of mine on Etsy.com. It is http://www.threelittlegoblins.etsy.com/ and they have a special place in my heart! This is someone I know who makes hand made bears in all shapes and sizes. One of the bears listed on her site is called a memory bear. This bear can be made from any fabric you like, one for her to choose or one maybe from a favorite piece of clothing. You can have your child's favorite shirt or dress made into a bear when it no longer fits!

But I have to say what is most special about this memory bear is it was one made especially for me in memory of my darling daughter Emma (you can read about Emma on my site at http://www.snanimals.com/ - it has a link to information and also to her carepage.) Emma passed away suddenly last year from pulmonary hypertension. Recently my friend surprised me with this beautiful bear, done in purple ribbon fabric for the pulmonary hypertension association and with Emma's picture on the belly (with a bumblebee on the foot--Emma LOVED bees!) So you see just how special these bears can be.

But there's so many more. I am also showing one that she makes for teachers! It is a fantastic idea and a wonderful gift. A bear that has the class picture (or any picture) on it's belly and colorfull apples all over for the class to sign to give as a gift! How ingenious! I imagine you can do this sort of thing for all types of jobs, not just teachers, as a special gift! Please drop by their shop and take a look around!

Safe Sippy Bottles - A better alternative to plastic

It seems that every week a new study is coming out about the toxic and deadly effects of bpa and other chemicals used in the manufacturing of plastic which then leach out into our food and drink. After months of research on the subject, we wanted to offer our customers the absolute best alternatives to plastic which are healthy, bpa-free and non-leaching....while still offering the same convenience in sizing, durability and ease of cleaning.

We have come to the determination after reading countless reports and talking with various experts that STAINLESS STEEL is the best material for water bottles and sippy cups. To this end, we have added several exciting new stylish and healthy products to our line to help our customers replace their old plastic water bottles and children's sippy cups and plastic drinking bottles.

We have several lines of adult bottles available, including SIGG, Klean Kanteen and Earthlust... all offering stylish designs and colors in safe materials.

(See adult offerings here: http://www.brightandbold.com/siggbottles.html)

Today, however I want to bring your attention to our Safe Sippy Bottle line... made from safe stainless steel with colorized rubber grips and durable enough for kids, in bright and fun colors they love to call their own. We've seen the popularity of this line soar and have sold out our first shipment - with the next shipment set to arrive during July, we are again taking preorders. Safe for juices, water, milk... and featuring (moms pay attention... you'll LOVE this part)... a leakproof top - YES, leakproof... it's a win/win product that we just love to tell the world about.

Come and check them out today for more details and ordering information:

Sweet Talk Boutique's MadNibbles

Remember those long summer road trips with nothing to do but ______those cool ______ fill in the blank note _______ that you could _____ with all your ______? We remember 'em too. We loved 'em so much we could just eat 'em...now you can too. We've designed our own text to suit any fill in the blank craziness you can come up with and put it on our yummy cookies to ship out fresh to you or your pal.

Just like all our Invitastions, you get to pick the box color and ribbon color, but this time the matching card that comes with the cookie is a pre-printed post card all ready to be addressed and mailed from the recipient to you or anyone else they want to share the fun with. We also send an edible marker to fill in those blanks! Hey, we'll even try to match or compliment the marker color to the ribbon color when possible.

$20 each and available now at Sweet Talk Boutique! In addition to the new fresh look on the home page and the introduction of MadNibbles, we've got some other goodies in the works. Check back often this summer to see some cute gift ideas we're bringing to our boutique just for you!
