Recovering~ Blessed Nest Weekend round up

Wow, I'm tired. Do you ever feel that way? HA HA. If you are a mom of young children, you feel that way. If you are busy and living life you feel that way every now and again and if you have two young children and have packed and moved your life to a much smaller living space; you feel that way. That's me. All of the above is me. Blogging was at a minimum this past week but we have some exciting things coming your way in the near future! My husband and I are determined to get and live debt free. We have some amazing mentors in our life who lead debt free lives and have an abundance. They are simply wise and creative! Kara- Noel from Eli's Lids is someone I look to for wisdom in the area of financing! She will be writing a post for us regarding  credit and why you CAN live without it!

A home for our Nest

We are so excited to announce our permanent home for Blessed Nest! We have been looking and waiting for the perfect studio and home office for Heather and Blessed Nest production! Last year we came close to purchasing a old bank building right off route 66. All though this sounds glamorous, the building needed a lot of work! In the end, we are glad it didn't work out. We've always had the vision of working with stay at home moms, Grandmas and Aunties. We will be hiring a few new seamstresses who can work from home and sew! We don't see the need to spend money on a large production facility. We would rather hire women who have the freedom to work from home and be with their children.

Now that I've given you a bit of background of our journey; would you like to know where we landed? Lawrence,Kansas is the new home for Blessed Nest! Heather LOVES it. Can you believe she even sees a little bit of Brooklyn in this little city!

Heather and her puppy, Murphey go for a walk every night...Heather has been in awe of what she has seen....a baby wearing bluegrass band! That's right. Heather had the privilege of speaking with this sweet group!

Baby wearing & bluegrass at the farmer's market... KS might be heaven

Meet The Prairie Acre....

Walking home from the library, Heather passed the most spectacular community garden she had ever seen!

And another night in the park, walking distance from the Blessed Nest studio! Well worth the wait. We now have the perfect Nesting spot!

We got mail...we love hearing from you and enjoy all the love notes that we receive in our Blessed Nest mail box! Here is a recent note~

Hi Donna,

Although I haven't yet used the Nesting Pillow, I just wanted to email to let you know that I love it! My baby should arrive any day now and i'm looking forward to using it for nursing (I imagine it will also come in handy at other times as well).

The lip balm is my new favorite flavor too! Thank you so much for the nest egg as well - it was an unexpected and delightful surprise!

I love finding women-owned companies to support that make well crafted products right here in the US with eco-friendly materials. I'm very impressed with every detail (including the heart and moon cutouts on the tags for the diaper pins) I am delighted with Blessed Nest!

We are delighted with you too and all of our wonderful, sweet customers we call friends!

Love To the moon and back

The Nesting Pillow is wonderful for every size mom or baby; even for a tiny baby!

The method below for adjusting the Nesting Pillow was suggested to us by one of the NICU nurses at the Phoenix Children's Hospital, who uses the Nesting Pillow with preemies.
