Chasing Fireflies: love it
Published 06.15.2007 | Permanent Link | Comments (0)
I must buy too many things online, because boy-o-boy do I receive an extraordinary amount of catalogs. Most wind up in the trash, but over the years I have discovered some good ones: like Brocade, Viva Terra and Land of Nod. My new fave is Chasing Fireflies. Even the name is great.
From, the cover, the Chasing Fireflies catalog looks very Babystyle, which is nice but been there, done that. But open it up and whoa! the merchandising is fabulous. Some really unbelievable and unique items. True, they don't come cheap, but special gifts and clothes can be found. Here are some of may faves:
Personalized Wagon
When Ry was a baby and toddler I would pull him around our apartment in a Radio Flyer. During playdates, the kids took turns. I miss those days.
Mermaid Towels
I have no idea whether they're practical, but damn, they're cute.
Music Boxes
These are by that French music box company that Melissa covered recently. But, now you can buy more easily.
Skull Rain Boots
L-o-v-e.
Number Tees
I immediately thought of Chris and her seven kids. If I had nearly that many I would buy this series just to help me keep track of them all.
Phew. I'm exhausted now.
