    Make A Wish and Carry It with You

    Have you ever made a wish? I believe everyone did when you were still a little kid. But where did our wishes go as we are growing up? We haven’t made a wish for a long time, and sadly we almost forgot all the wishes we ever made! But I still can remember the beautiful moments when I made a wish at small ages – secretly writing down on my notebook, or under my study desk. There is a brand I want to introduce to you all that you can carry the wishes with you, so that you will never lost it and forget it. It is Wishbeads.

    How Wishbeads work?

    • Write it.

    Visualize your greatest wish coming true. See it clearly in your mind’s eye. Write down your wish using the kit that is provided along with your jewelry.

    • Wear it.

    Roll up the paper. Tuck it inside your beautiful gemstone jewelry. Wear your wish every day as a powerful visual reminder of the intention you’ve set.

    • Witness.

    Each day, whenever you see your jewelry, you’ll be reminded to take action, to live purposefully toward realizing your wish. Witness the power of you!

    Fire Recycled Glass Bracelet

    This collection features African recycled glass beads handmade by members of the Krobo Tribe in Ghana, Africa. Using centuries-old techniques, they form each bead by compressing the glass into a dry grain, heating the grain, and pouring into porcelain molds, before adding the stem of the cassava leaf to form the hole. The final heating burns the stem away and fuses the glass together. Vibrant colors and irregular shapes of each bead create one-of-a-kind pieces.

    Write down your deepest wish, tuck it inside your Wishbeads bracelet, and wear it as a daily reminder to take action.

    • Features solid brass cylinder and screw cap
    • Includes 5 wishpapers
    • Hand strung beads and clasp
    • Bracelet lengths vary between 18.5cm-19cm

    CHILDREN WILL NEVER LOSE THEIR STUFFED ANIMALS AGAIN

    Every parent knows the fear and panic that accompanies a child’s loss of a beloved stuffed animal. Somewhere while traveling between Seattle and Port-land—we never figured out where—my daughter Piper’s favorite plush toy, Mid-night, just disappeared. The loss was devastating to the founder, Vogel’s six-year-old, who never went to bed without her favorite cat. Right then and there it occurred to Vogel: our phones are mobile, computers are mobile, why can’t plush toys be mobile too?

    Enter GOPALS($14.95), the first stuffed animal that goes everywhere your child does. Designed by Vogel with an ingenious fastener that attaches securely onto any backpack, the eight plush toys in the GOPALS collection are sure to be a hit with kids everywhere. All of them—Piper theCat,Dash the Dog, Hadley the Panda,Spencer theLamb, Colie the Monkey, Mia the Rabbit, Lukie the Bear, and Jack the Fox—are cute, cuddly, portable, and most importantly attachable to your child’s travel gear. Standing7inches tall and made of durable polyester fiber,GOPALS are designed to stand up to the elements whatever the weather, even as they tag along on a child’s backpack—to school, sleepovers, on vacations and more. And parents will rest easier knowing that their children’s favorite friend will never leave their side.

    Parents will also appreciate GOPALS’ commitment to improving the lives of children everywhere. “In deciding to create this company,” says Vogel, “we wanted it to be one that spread joy by doing good–the first by creating a small stuffed friend that never leaves a child’s side, the second by supporting children charities.”The GOPALS Brand has signed a partnership with Alex’s Lemonade Stand Foundation,which is aimed at propelling the world towards a future without childhood cancer. A portion of every GOPALS animal sold will go toward funding and promoting children’s charities.

    Vogel explains, “This work is personal to my family. Several years ago, I lost a husband–and my daughter Piper a father–to cancer. We know how hard he fought, and we want to continue his fight by supporting the cure for childhood cancer. Please join us in the effort to ride the world of childhood cancers and save other families from the devastating loss of a loved one.”
