Happy Registered Dietitian Nutritionist Day!

Yes, for those of you like me who didn't know this existed it is a big deal in the Dietitian world.  Every year I get caught off guard not having enough fruits and vegetables in stock for the mad rush on healthy badge reels.   This year, I am happy to say I was much more prepared.  Along with a few large bulk orders, I prepped enough stock to have some for everyone else too.  The most popular reel by far is the avocado followed closely by the broccoli and surprisingly in third is the egg plant.    Strawberries are a year round favorite.

How do you Clean Felt?

I don't have a whole lot of experience with cleaning felt as when they are here they are all clean and brand new. Joyce one of my customers emailed me to let me know she has washed her badge reel over 20 times and it is still going strong. 

New Items are Listed

This just keeps happening to me.  I promise myself I wont do it but then ..... there I go I did it again.  I got behind on posting new items!  The pile just grows and grows and I just can't find the time to take photos and list and before you know it I have a pile of 54 new designs waiting to be listed.  Yesterday, I was determined to get them all done and I did it!  Whew.  Hope you love some of the new additions.  These are just a few samples.

My LOVE of Glitter Vinyl

Glitter Vinyl badge reels have all the sparkle and none of the mess.  The glitter in encased in the vinyl and does not shed.  Just enjoy the sparkle.  I wish there were as many colors available in vinyl as there are in felt although options continue to grow.  I hope it remains popular and new colors keep arriving.  It is tough to show the true sparkle and brightness of the vinyl in photos.

Alaskan Animals

This was such a fun order to put together.  A customer up in Alaska is hosting a NICU event and has divided the attendees into groups with each group being assigned an animal from Alaska.  I had to do some googling to what animals are indigenous to Alaska and then sent the customer a selection to choose from.  It would be fund to see them all walking around wearing their badges and wish them the best of luck on a successful event.
