Buy Handmade: Wrapsberry


By now, you may have figured out my e-vil plot to feature items that I myself would like to receive. Heh, heh. Think of it as my Christmas wish-list.

Luxury, thy name is Wrapsberry. Flo, founder of Wrapsberry and a fellow EtsyMom, makes these amazing "blankets." One side is constructed from a super-plush minky, the center is dense fleece, and the opposite side features an equally luxurious ultra suede, or satin, etc. They all have this ingenious pocket. When snuggling, you tuck your feet in it. When not in use, the throw folds into the pocket, and creates a fluffy pillow. How cool is that?

From her blog: "What is Wrapsberry? It's unusual and memorable, like Kodak or Xerox, and has versatility as a noun for branding purposes. It describes the product- wraps. But most significantly, its twist on "raspberry" draws parallels to the decadence and simplicity found in that small perfect package, the richness and substance you taste in a fruit at its peak."

I couldn't have said it better myself. Thank you, Flo. Remember to buy handmade this Christmas.

P.S. Thanks to Dottyral for the Etsy Mini idea from her Storque article.

I love your blog! Those wrapsberries are adorable, what a great idea - thanks for the write up on them. Can't wait to have another little one so I can try out your diaper dust!
