It's Back!!!!


The gorgeous Succulent Wreath from Viva Terra. If I weren't on a "no spending" (well, sort of) diet, I would get it for myself. Viva Terra in general is fab if you love eco-friendly shopping and have some disposable income. My friend Tia bought this wreath last year and said it was beautiful. I LOVE IT when I get to shop/spend vicariously through others!

Rising Sun

Check out these awesome Japanese inspired items from Jaminga. I love that most of the baby and toddler clothes are made from organic cotton and bamboo (although you'll pay for it) and the wide variety of items you won't find elsewhere. The book pictured above, "Count the Birdies," features the art of Seattle artist Matthew Porter based on Japanese woodcuts.
Cotton and bamboo teeshirts for boys or girls.
Really cute kimono dress for babies and toddlers up to size 4T. Also available in long sleeves, other colors and as a onesie.
Awwww. Precious little baby kimono.

Oompa, Loompa . . . Bye-bye To Your Dough

Have you ever wanted to just go nuts in a toy store like Tom Hanks in "Big?" Oh. Well maybe it's just me then. Anyway, that is how I feel about Oompa Toys. They have really cool stuff you can't find a lot of other places, and the way the site is set up is really cool, too. You can shop by country of origin, organic vs. non-organic, by age group, etc. Shipping is a flat $4.95 or free if your order is over $65 (trust me, it will be). All this doesn't come cheap, but it's still fun to look and get ideas. For example, I really love "Daisy's Market" shown above, but for $90, I think I'll see if I can get DH to build one for me instead!
Love this Jet Trike from Italtrike. And it's about half as much as yesterday's Kettler.
Sweet little organic striped Goose.
Very cool drum with drumsticks.

Sand and water "mill" for the budding engineers.

It's Easy Being Green

I just received these heavenly cleaning products from our friend Sarah714 at Happy Hippy Baby, which are manufactured by Simple. Pure. Clean. I ordered the six piece kit, which includes bathroom, all-purpose, hardwood floor and glass cleaners, dusting spray and lavender linen spray. These are “all natural cleaning products, containing the power of plant and vegetable based ingredients with pure essential oils added for their cleaning properties and aromatherapy health benefits for you and your family.” The cleaners are phosphate and bleach free, contain no dyes, are biodegradable and contain no synthetic fragrances. But the best part is that they really work! And the linen spray resulted in the most blissful sound sleep I have ever seen from my baby! They are $43.50 for six huge bottles, and shipping is free.
