Our bodies, ourselves are about 65% water. When we're floating in our mamas' bellies (in amniotic fluid, about 98% water), our mamas feel extra nice floating in a warm bath tub, relaxing their muscles and enjoying. Blessings on the floating babes, the floating mamas, and blessings on the water that floats us! Lisa Foti-Straus drew the sketch for this card one evening, sketching a pregnant sister-friend in the tub. A good one to give to mama's in wait. Emily Johnson printed them with a rainbow hued split fountain on an OG letterpress at EMprint Press, at YU, in Portland, Oregon. The recycled stock is heavyweight and a little bit toothy, with 25% cotton mixed in. The envelopes are 100% PCW recycled kraft paper.

"Hana 'i'o ka haole!"The foreigner does it in earnest! Neither strictly born on a Hawaiian island nor genetically Hawaiian, our nonetheless Hawaiian Lili designed "Go Stay Stay Go," honoring the moon, the mountains upon, and the sea that surrounds those paradises. A persimmon hue was selected for the backside and a fine gold powder was mixed in so that if you look carefully, these beauties shine.

There's nothing wrong with being a little bit sensitive. For those of us who are a little more delicate, Fat & the Moon has provided us with this sensitive pit cream.

If baking soda and essential oils are the pits for your pits, let this stuff soothe you. As with it's slightly less sensitive sister, the classic deodorant cream, this stuff will stop you from stinkin' so go out there and get sweaty. No problems!

Dig in a bit, warm some in your fingers, and apply to your pits.

Totally clear, really more like a balm. Good to go.

From teas to tinctures to aromatherapy, the calming effects of lemon balm and lavender have been revered for generations. California Poppy adds an energetic vibe to this mist, dulling sharp reactions and cooling out tempers and fears.

Mist around a wound up kid to promote peace and calm. We adults like it also. Great to incorporate into a night time routine by spritzing lightly on the pillow. Don't forget to accompany with a nice deep breath. Good for the fur babies in your life too!
