Summer Ready Feet

Okay, I know - an odd title for a Bella blog post, but summer is unofficially here, the weather is definitely warmer, & flip-flops, sandals, & bare feet abound!  To get those feet ready for the fresh air of summer try our Candy Mint Foot Care Collection from Deep Steep.  This luxurious treat for the feet is loaded with all natural ingredients and laden with Peppermint, Rosemary, Eucalyptus, Tea Tree & Spearmint extracts that will keep your feet feeling invigorated & fresh all season long.  We have the Foot Polish for exfoliating, the Foot Cream for deep moisturizing, & the Moisture Stick for keeping those heels smooth as silk.  So get those sandals out, indulge in a lovely pedicure, & keep your hard-working feet pampered all season long!

Thanking our Teachers

As school winds down for our little town here in the Colorado foothills, it is a good time to remember to thank those wonderful people in our kid's lives that teach them & help them grow & learn in so many ways.  As you get ready for school to be out and begin to plan for vacation & summer camps, we hope you will be able to find a little something here at Bella that will say thank you to the teachers that make an impact in your children's lives.  We have put together a few gift ideas for you but as always we are happy to help you put a little something together that will be appreciated by the ones who receive it.

Sweet Living

We have been focusing this spring on bringing in more goods & gifts that are made locally in Colorado and as easy as that may sound, to find just the right mix of product, quality, brand, & artisan can be quite the challenge indeed.  So, when we came across a product & a brand that has literally been in our backyard for over 90 years, we were ecstatic to jump on the chance to feature their sweet goods right here at Bella.  Hammond's Candies, made in Denver, has been around for nearly ever and has mostly been known for their hard candies (think lollipops, ribbon candy, & taffy).  This year they have launched some new sweet goods & we are absolutely thrilled to introduce them to you!  Take a peak below at our current selection & don't worry, we will be expanding our selection as the summer continues.  We have LOVED sampling all of these sweet little confections & can't wait for you to try them too!  Here's to Sweet Living!!

{This candy company makes Lemonade Mix too & it's quite refreshing! 
Love the packaging too - perfect for a hostess gift or lemonade lover}

 

{The chocolate bars are heavenly - my favorite right now is the Sea Side Caramel
which is melt in your mouth fabulous & I was actually pleasantly surprised to also enjoy
the Crackle Crunch which is actually made with Raspberry Pop Rocks - kids will LOVE it!!}

{These Anniversary Tins were made to commemorate Hammond's 90th Anniversary
& they decided to keep the tins around for easy gift giving. 
These tins are filled with Hammond's Milk Chocolate Almond Toffee - YUM!}
