Under the Nile


We are very proud to be carrying one of our favorite organic lines from Under the Nile. They are one of those companies that you find yourself feeling so proud of on so many levels. Here's a few reasons we love them:
  • Organically cultivated and grown
  • Hand picked in Egypt
  • Produced in an environmentally friendly manner
  • Dyed with natural, heavy metal free colors
  • Fair Traded
  • Machine wash and tumble dry!
Additionally, Under the Nile is involved in a project called The '13 Villages Project'. "It takes place in 13 rural villages in Sharkeya, Egypt. Through vocational training and infrastructural development, the project is improving the health, skills and overall well being of the village inhabitants. We provide excellent health care as well as education on dental and over all physical health. We begin by educating the villagers on how to make our fruit and vegetable toys. Each village receives an advance for their work and the materials needed to produce that toy. Upon completion, we pick up the finished goods and pay them fair wages for their work."

So our new favorite thing that JUST came in, is this Octopus. It's made with left over scraps and thus rightly named the Organic Scraptopus Toy! It's really vibrant and is made with soft rib knit fabric. The legs are perfect for teething too, especially since you can wash and dry it in the machine.

Make Your Own Valentine's Cards


What ever happened to hand made cards? I know, I know... life gets busy and it's hard to follow through on things like that.

But I have a couple ideas that can help you meet in the middle! We have a great make-your-own cards kit. Made in the USA and only $10.50, this kit comes with 10 blank 4" x 6" cards, over 250 pop out shapes, 10 envelopes, and a glue stick. Read more about it here.

Another fun idea could be to attend our Shrinky Dink event tomorrow and create some heart shape designs to add to your cards.

I always sort of hope for one of those fancy hand made Valentine's each year... the kind with the doily and lace. But I've come to grips with the fact that I might only see those if I make them myself!

Happy Valentine's Day everyone!

Remember Shrinky Dinks?


I think one of the best things about Shrinky Dinks would be that anybody can do it. My friends bring their kids, but they end up making earrings and other great things for themselves that are one of a kind and beautifully artistic too!

Back by popular demand, we just decided last minute to have another Shrinky Dinks play date this Friday from 12p -3p!

Check out our photos from last time. And watch the video for a better idea of just what fun it can be.
If you can, come on in our Fallbrook store and learn all the in's and out's of creating Shrinky Dinks! If you can't make it, check out this really cool video on how to make your own designs by recycling plastic. I thought it was a really cute little video, so thanks to the makers for putting it on youtube!


If you give it a try, let us know how it works! And if you make a video, we'd love to share it on our blog. Have fun, and hope to see you soon!

Doodlebug Designs are FUN

We love that every month we get to design lasting memories with people of all ages. Using non toxic clay, our customers can come to our Fallbrook store and make ceramic stamps of their hands and feet, write their names, make ornaments, and more.

Here are some pictures to help you visualize the good times :)

Our next event is this Friday, January 8th from 11a-2pm. We hope to see you there!
