Whew… I’m back!  You know life can just take you in all kinds of directions and sometimes… sometimes the things you enjoy end up stuck on the backburner.

But, dear readers, it’s springtime… fresh, bright and inspiring… breathing new life into my yoga practice and into this here ol’ blog, MommyOm.

And so, in the spirit of fresh and new… have you considered your yoga space?  Perhaps it needs a little pick-me-up and, through the wonders of Etsy, I have a unique idea to spruce up your walls with a little yoga folk art.

The Willies offer the cutest, most folksie and interesting yoga themed prints to dress up your walls and offer a little hand-made inspiration.  Aptly named Ms. Yoga, these prints “are the whimsical, handmade creation of Sam Willoughby. Each Willie has its own character and no two are the same.”

“The Willies like being around nature therefore, many accompanying objects of art have been created: flowers, trees, birds, rabbits and such. Many of the smaller pieces could sit on a table top and perhaps brighten up a small space in your home or office.”

Ms. Yoga would love to be a part of your inspirational space just as I am happy to be back as part of your yoga surfing!

If I had this… this handy, mcdandy Skort from gaiaconceptions over at Etsy, well, I too would prance around in my Wellingtons.

Gaiaconceptions offers a whole line of remarkably cute and functional items, all utilizing organic fabrics such as hemp and cotton.

As I peruse her shop, I’m really left conflicted as to which of her lovely items I plan to put on the old Christmas list!

But more likely, with the soft fabric and comfy, snug fitting boy short beneath, I’ll enjoy it for my summer practice out on my NEW DECK!

In this skort I will be sporty, in its function… stylish, in its short, skort-y sexiness and the colours, hand-dyed, a wonderful selection of  bold and bright..  and comfortable, in it’s fabric, soft organic cotton and hemp.

Just all ’round cute and functional- from yoga practice to a bike ride to lunch out with the gals.

I will so be sending the link to this, the Pokara Shirt of organic hemp and cotton, to hubby… I can see this for beginning practice, skating at the lake… or just sitting with a big bowl of popcorn with a movie in front of the fireplace.

I love, love, love the versatility of the cowl neck, especially living here in the frozen North as we do.  It’s lined with FLEECE, people!

I’m also a total sucker for extra-long sleeves with thumb holes!!

The hand-dyed fabrics, as with the skort above, come in a beautiful selection of bold and vibrant colours, making this a fall-winter must have for just about anyone!  A fantastic gift for that lover of the comfy-cozy… ahem.

Before I end this post… keeping myself from posting gaiaconceptions entire line… I had to include this unique and lovely skirt. I love this:

The Ruffle Butt Long Skirt. In a blend of organic cotton and hemp, it’s perfect for casual wear or to dress up for a night out.  The wonderful hand-dyed fabric colours are available as with the other items from gaiaconceptions.

The unique ruffle in the back is a wonderful “nod to the bustle Gaia Conceptions style“.  With a stretchy waist band it looks to be a comfortable and flattering choice for any woman’s body.

I’ll keep this in mind for next spring, as its “a fun skirt for all seasons.”

The Ruffle Butt Long Skirt is paired with the Drawstring Tank.

I will no doubt be featuring more of  gaiaconceptions amazing clothing here at MommyOm.

Peruse her shop and without a doubt you’ll be sure to find something…  it’s all just so beautiful!

From the annals of Etsy yet again… these images by tlcpix are meant to evoke feelings of peace and serenity.  There are a number to choose from… from landscapes to flowers to old barns and the like, black & white and colour… and tlcpix keeps her selection growing.

If you’re looking for beautiful, tranquil images for your home, office or yoga/meditation space these are for you.  Check out more at the Etsy shop of tlcpix.

There…. I said it!

It’s a mouthful, but baby is sure to love this cute little blankie… perfect for any little yogi-to-be!

Made in the USA, this lightweight, fun yoga monkey kiwi cotton print/organic french terry baby blanket is made with a single layer of 100% cotton printed dot and the softest, natural certified-organic french terry cotton. The perfect size for swaddling, cuddling, traveling and burping.

Generously sized, they measure approximately 28 x 33 inches and comes with a natural, eco friendly, 100% recyclable kraft gift box with tissue papers which make the gift look great.

The perfect gift for baby shower or first birthday!

Another item on my wish list from the wondrous annals of Etsy.  Candyglass offers a lovely selection… and a buy 3 get one FREE deal to boot!  Three great gifts and you get to keep the bonus for yourself… or myself, whatever the case may be….

These tiles, several zen/yoga/meditation themed, are made of clear glass and are a 7/8” by 7/8” square.  This pendant has a decorative graphic image adhered to the back of tile and sealed with a liquid glass.  The necklace is a silver plated chain with a lobster clasp, very beautiful and delicate; it is not a ball chain.  Conveniently they come with a gift box, a 2X2” clear plastic box with a bon bon wrapper inside to hold your pendant, it is then filled with an iridescent filler and tied with a reusable marabou bow.

Just… well, pretty.

From the wonderful world of Etsy and TheSpinningLotus…

The Tree of Life is an important symbol in nearly every culture. With its branches reaching into the sky, and roots deep in the earth, it dwells in three worlds- a link between heaven, the earth, and the underworld, uniting above and below.

It is both a feminine symbol, bearing sustenance, and a masculine one.

18 inch Sterlng silver chain displays a Sterling Silver Tree Pendant (just more than 3/4′s inch wide). Perfect for bringing a peace and focus to your everyday wardrobe.

OMG!  I so looooovvvvve these… and particularly the waistband with the silkscreen print. Without a doubt, aptly named…  Beyond Yoga Pants!

Leave it to the talent over at Etsy to bring us the so very unusual and wonderfully cool!

These pants fit to flatter, hugging you in all the right spots.
Beyond yoga pants are designed to be functional, comfy and sexy for dance, yoga, shaking your booty at a reggae show or what ever your forte. They also double as a hot ass pair of pants for a night out on the town.

The waistband/skirt features a silkscreen print of cascading flowers in black on cream,cotton/Lycra fabric-  printed by HerbanDevi, herself!)
The legs of the pants are a beautiful olive green.

The exposed serged seams throughout the pants are done in black thread.

Unique, pretty, athletic and just plain cool!

Yum.  Yum. Yum.

Head to class in unique style with this lovely tote from the treasure chest that is Etsy.

From XcessRize Designs, these happy totes are large enough to hold your favourite mat and a towel and wide, deep interior pockets to take care of your other essentials, like your wallet, keys and cellphone.

Conveniently, the exterior offers deep pockets for your water bottle and the wide strap is adjustable so the bag can be carried tote style or slung over your back as desired.

No more squeezing into a saggy, baggy tube!
