Sampler Select: Sleep was curated by Marie the Bee! Around the time that we begin thinking up ideas for Sampler Select, I was going through a serious bout of insomnia. So, it seemed natural to create a Sampler Select in a theme that was very real and very close to what I was all about at the time: sleep and the lack thereof.

Everything in Sampler Select: Sleep was custom-created exclusively for the Sampler! Most are meant to help combat insomnia, but a couple of the items might actually promote sleeplessness—in a cute and cuddly way, of course! Well, maybe not the vigilante bunnies…

In each Sampler Select: Sleep, you’ll find:

• A bedtime story zine about bunnies created as a collaboration between me and my brother Rex Kare, II
• An original, archival giclee print by Susie Ghahremani of Boygirlparty
• A plush Bed Bug, handmade by SappyMooseTree
• A mini dream journal handmade by If’n Books
• A “Chocolate Slumber” herbal tea by Herb + Ginger
• A travel-sized candle tin in “Twilight Mist” by Beccalights
• A “Songs to Sleep to, or Not to Sleep to” CD by Clovis Heald
• A super comfy eye-quilt by Jennicakes
• An “itty bitty blankie”, handmade by WonderlandQ
• A Color-It-Yourself card kit by Wolfie and the Sneak
• A fused glass nightlight handmade by Amy Burhoe Designs

Each Sampler Select: Sleep comes in a dark blue velvet bag, handmade by Alison Gordon. Click Here to view more images of the items in this Sampler Select!
