Coin purse fits neatly inside the wristlet and is big enough for cards and cash. This is a very versatile set.

Feature Friday: Three Fish Shop

FEATURE FRIDAY!!!!

Three Fish Shop

Just as adorable as the cutest toddlers and infants I have every seen as models, are the gorgeous handcrafted Beanies, Berets and Hats that Marina makes and sells in her shop "three fish shop" on Etsy (http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=7128854)

Made with the finest natural and organic yarn, her creations range from blightly colored to softly sweet, offerings for newborns, boys and girls and even some adult beanies. Oh, and she does wholesale orders as well! Marina's been on Etsy only since March this year and has already made quite the name for herself, along with a rapidly increasing number of sales over the past two months. (Hint... get there while they are hot!!!!)

So, if you have your own toddlers running around this is definitely the shop for you! And even if you don't have children, look here for the perfect gifts for the children or expecting mothers in your life! Heck, the children in the photos are so adorable you may be tempted to have kids!

Here are some of my favorites:

Merino Wool Earflap Hat -

Amethyst and Charcoal Chunky Earflap Beanie with Flower

Treat your baby to a hat made of the finest, softest merino wool this season! This chunky baby hat is crocheted in our original design from luxurious 100% merino wool - no cheap synthetic fillers here! This hat is designed to last a long time: our merino wool is super soft and warm, durable, and can be hand-washed safely. The crocheted earflap beanie design allows the hat to grow with the child, and the plaited accents and double flower are just plain cute!

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=27905621

Pippi Beret in Cotton Candy Pink

Give a unique, adorable gift with this little beret scaled down just for children! The Pippi Beret features 100% natural cotton yarn, crocheted into a raised design on the crown, and features a tighter "weave" than our Popcorn Drawstring Beret. A knit ribbed opening gives the beret more stretch and a unique look. The cotton yarn extends use of this beret from spring through winter.

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28136589

Earflap Hat - Pastel Rainbow and Browns Multicolor Handyed Cotton Yarn (Photo Prop)

New this season is our multicolor earflap hat for babies and children - what a unique photo prop! We start with a "blank canvas" of yarn and hand-dye it into an array of colors. We then knit the yarn into a chunky knit earflap hat and add long, multicolor plaits to the earflaps for a unique look. Your hat will look similar to the picture, but no two hats are alike! This is a limited edition, so get it while you can! (This baby hat is designed for use as a photo prop only. )

http://www.etsy.com/view_listing.php?listing_id=28233046

Organic Baby Hat - Chunky Beanie in Posy Pink, Pecan and Almond

The Organic Chunky Beanie baby hat is one of our customer favorites. It is crocheted from soft, fluffy 100% organic cotton in a tri-color design. This is the perfect, simple gift for a baby shower, christening, or birthday because it complements any outfit and is "girly" without being over the top! (Similar version available for the little boys too!)

Blissology is available on Etsy, the Blissology website and at 6 different retail locations in Colorado. (See http://thescienceofbliss.com/shop/ for details about all of the shopping options!)

Check out a few of my favorites below, chosen for the stress-relief qualities:

Stress-Be-Gone Bath Salts - 12 oz. bag

The best remedy to a long, hard day is a nice soak in a hot bath. Our bath salts make a bath even more soothing. Our Stress-Be-Gone blends essential oils of Orange, Rosemary, Peppermint, Spearmint, Eucalyptus, and Lavender. Each oil is known for its relaxation and rejuvenation benefits. http://thescienceofbliss.com/shop/index.php?main_page=product_info&cPath=3&products_id=25

Room Diffuser Kit - Currently the July Special Item on Sale for $14.00!!!

Our room diffusers deliver a soft fragrance that fills the room but is not overpowering. Guests always comment about how our house "smells so good" thanks to our diffusers. The secret is special reeds that allow a fragrance oil to move up and disperse gently throughout the air.

SO, there will be only one featured seller this week, and will be posted tomorrow. I fell in love with her products after doing just a general Etsy browse and she's agreed to be featured... Stay tuned.

Please remember to leave some comments below about Andrew's Photography!!!!
