Use these at the beach, on the table or on a bed ... or even to wrap around yourself and someone else. These colorful Ethiopian cotton blankets get their pizzazz from broad stripes of dots. Washer, dryer, or line dry, in a flash. Also available without the Dots detail (order Natural). |

New products, ( Beyond Burlap runners, Dots Tablecloths, Rattan Napkins and more) media kits, price lists, re-organizing our booth ... these seem to be the hot topics on my mind lately. But, at the same time, I'm trying hard to make time to enjoy my garden (it's lovely this year except for the rabbits and the leek fungus), take a swim in the lake, walk before the birds stop singing in the morning, and watch the sun set each night. I'm also trying to be "laid back" (I am a product of the 60s ad 70s.) by not counting how many days 'til August 13 and the beginning of the NYIGF. Rather, this year I've created a contest between the NYIGF and my lovely purple runner bean. I'm betting my runner bean will be at top of my pergola (see picture of runner bean and pergola above) before I leave for NY on August 10. Certainly more fun than counting the days on the calendar.
In case you want to know who wins, come to Creative Women's booth at the Show ... 6308. You'll get to see our new products and find out the race results.

Another unexpected alliance, Garden and Gun (the Soul of the the South magazine) and Creative Women. I met Haskell Harris, an associate editor, at the February New York Gift Show. She was interested in featuring a Creative Women Dots Beach Blanket in their summer edition. I was being my Vermont, somewhat reclusive self, and wondering if this was a good match. See for yourself; we both share a number of similar interests and values ... beautiful things for the home, healthy life styles and good food, well designed products, and Emmylou Harris (she's featured in the June/July edtion).

Oh, I forgot to mention that the first day out, we got a phone call from a Texan, who wanted to get one of the Dots for his wife ... it was their 44th wedding anniversary. He told me, "haven't been to Vermont yet, but I hear it's beautiful." Then he commented, "I think that creating jobs in Ethiopia's a pretty darn good thing, too."
Thanks Haskell and Garden and Gun. Come see us again at the NYIGF.
