To Covet: Kuma Bear

Written on January 29, 2010. Written by Jennifer Nicole.

Occasionally, I like to post things that I just plain want – whether or not they fit my style, budget, or even my ever-changing mood.  Ergo, the semi-regular To Covet: a category that shows one thing that I’ve been coveting, be it eco-, socio- or independently-friendly.

First thing first: Gilt has a new “Gifts” section, and I didn’t even know it until this morning.  I’m guessing this addition came up for Valentine’s Day – I’m seeing lots of heart-shaped pendants and shades of red – but since I’m not one to go all out for V-Day, I passed by all that…and found this adorable bear.

He’s made by Ross Menuez, sewn entirely from organic cotton, and silk-screened using environmentally-friendly soy-based inks.  Not only that, he comes in seven different patterns.  (The above, Cedar, is my favorite.)

Note that this is not a gift that will arrive before Valentine’s Day, as its estimated delivery dates are February 18 through March 1.  It’s half-price at $25, and you can get it by joining Gilt (if you haven’t already – it’s free and not spam-y) and going to the Gifts section.  (Anyone need my shipping address?  ;) )
