So when working with my customers, I listen and dig for feedback. What are some of your favorite gift ideas for men?

Great gift for teachers, kids and animal lovers. Wild Animal Pins are Now on Sale through March 20th to celebrate all animals and the environments in which they live.

What is National Wildlife Week?
Taken from the National Wildlife Federation Website:
Since 1938, National Wildlife Week has been essential to wildlife conservation, bringing awareness about the issue to people of all ages. Observing National Wildlife Week is a time to honor wildlife, bring communities together through service, ignite the minds of children and adults, and instill an absolute love of nature.
Why Celebrate National Wildlife Week?
An easy way to participate in this week-long event is by making time for outdoor play and interaction with the natural world. Research shows that a daily Green Hour® improves one’s physical, mental and emotional well-being. This is especially important for children who typically spend hours in front of electronic media. Additionally, families and communities connected to nature raise healthier kids and inspire a life-long appreciation of wildlife and the environment.
How Do I Get Started?
The National Wildlife Week website offers resources for kids, teens, parents, and educators to make spending time outdoors easier than ever. Download free activities and games, Wildlife Watch lists of local plants and animals, environmental service project ideas, and fact sheets about the benefits of playing outside.
National Wildlife Federation welcomes you to join us during this annual celebration.
For questions about National Wildlife Week, email nationalwildlifeweek@nwf.org.

Help spread awareness with National Awareness Days. February is American Heart Month and Paloma Pottery is offering free heart gifts with purchases. Online at www.palomapottery.com also find glass fused ceramic heart shaped products on sale for the month of February.
Heart Attack Warning Signs**
Some heart attacks are sudden and intense — the “movie heart attack,” where no one doubts what’s happening. But most heart attacks start slowly, with mild pain or discomfort. Often people affected aren’t sure what’s wrong and wait too long before getting help. Here are signs that can mean a heart attack is happening:
- Chest discomfort. Most heart attacks involve discomfort in the center of the chest that lasts more than a few minutes, or that goes away and comes back. It can feel like uncomfortable pressure, squeezing, fullness or pain.
- Discomfort in other areas of the upper body. Symptoms can include pain or discomfort in one or both arms, the back, neck, jaw or stomach.
- Shortness of breath with or without chest discomfort.
- Other signs may include breaking out in a cold sweat, nausea or lightheadedness
As with men, women’s most common heart attack symptom is chest pain or discomfort. But women are somewhat more likely than men to experience some of the other common symptoms, particularly shortness of breath, nausea/vomiting, and back or jaw pain.
Learn the signs, but remember this: Even if you’re not sure it’s a heart attack, have it checked out (tell a doctor about your symptoms). Minutes matter! Fast action can save lives — maybe your own. Don’t wait more than five minutes to call 9-1-1.

Artisan style handmade pottery is adorned with fused recycled glass to create a classy recycled product and functional art in colors and items that fit a variety of tastes and décor.
