It’s Monday, which isn’t my favorite of days, especially when the weather is -23, HOWEVER it is bright and sunshiny outside and I am excited to share this giveaway with you all!
August Baby Co makes these gorgeous felt elephants in a variety of colors, and when I first saw it, I had to have one for Phoenix. It’s handmade by a local artist, Alyssha Scanlin, and it’s soft and so sweet. I love to incorporate natural organic items like these into my home decor and I especially love it when I can support local female entrepreneurs. Alyssha is so sweet, she has offered you the chance to win one in the color of your choice!

I asked Alyssha to share a little about herself and her business, read on.
I started making felt products about 2 years ago as my daughter started playing with toys – I began making her toys out of felt. That led to making decorations and all kinds of felt stuff. It became what I would gift all of my friends kids and soon all my girlfriends began requesting different felt products. I then realized this was something really special and loved among many moms.
What’s your vision/goal for your company?
My vision is to be able to provide adorable high quality handmade items to Moms who are unable to make things themselves. My goal is to be able to eventually produce my own fabrics and custom prints to incorporate into my designs. I envision my products to have big city style while made with hometown love
What other products do you make/sell?
I also make beautiful handmade baby blankets and nursery bedding. I incorporate a lot of very mature patterns and color pallets for the stylish mom. I love the option to have something extremely stylish and unique and to not take your baby out with a blanket that every other mom has. Being a mom is all about being an individual so I love my baby blankets to reflect that.
