Creative Play Gallery—A father and daughter (only 4!) team collaborate to create uplifting and inspirational art pieces which they transfer to prints, cards, magnets, etc. The owner, Louis Buchetto, started as a retailer/gallery owner 14 years ago and four years ago launched his wholesale business. I loved the whimsical quality of the pieces.

Remember Me Jewelry, Inc./Message in a Bottle—Jewelry packaged in a bottle with inspirational passages from the Bible. With fantastic packaging and great display pieces, the line would be a perfect addition to your store if you sell faith-based merchandise.

KBD Studio—Handmade eclectic designer accessories, that range from apparel (tank tops and hoodies) to leather purses and belts. All items have Swarovski crystal embellishments.

Barefoot Books—BB offers 50 fun yoga cards filled with activities for kids and grownups, a book that teaches kids how to do yoga and a "Mr. Pretzel Yoga Bendo," a twisty character that can be sold with both products. The combination of illustrations and instructions make the poses easy to follow. This is a perfect gift for the family that has everything, or parents who want to encourage exercise and a healthy lifestyle at home.

Natural Habitat—All fabrics are hand-woven in India, and showcase beautiful colors and designs on pillows and bedding. The bedding is made from recycled pillow fabric. There's also a cute line of cat and dog pillows perfect for the animal section of your store.
