Pogs Will Soon Be Takin' Over Our Home..
posted 9.1.09
On a recent business trip to LA I brought my 5 yr. old daughter along on an appointment and she noticed these dolls on the other end of the showroom and has not stopped asking for them since. So this being the case I have to order these really cool dolls called "Pogs" ASAP and I'm sure that they will be taking over the house very soon. My lil' one has her own mini eco-movement goin' on and only wants eco-friendly toys, clothes and food.
Pogs are little cuddly fun loving creatures. They are 100% hand-made by Veronica Powell and designed these with her 7 year old niece one Summer holiday. ,
Pogs are great gifts that have the planet and health in mind. The fabrics are 100% organic cotton using natural dyes to produce a unique and creative finish. The stuffing is bamboo fiber. Bamboo is 100% natural and eco-friendly. It is naturally anti-bacterial, moisture wicking and very soft. Bamboo plants absorb 2/3 more carbon dioxide and release 2/3 more oxygen then any other plant on earth!!The eyes are felt, that is made from recycling old water bottles. The fabric Pogs measure approx. 12” in length, 10” width (arm span) and 5” Body width.
Veronica says that the "Pogs are designed and made with love and attention. As they are handmade please be mindful and treat them with care. Please enjoy your pogs…"
