The Blue Hours…
Those celestial periods of twilight every morning and evening where there is neither full daylight nor complete darkness and everything in the open air looks kissed by the sky….
Welcome to our serene handmade & vintage haven for all things blue….

Frequently Asked Question:
Question: Do you only like the color blue?
Answer: No. We love all the colors of the rainbow! We focus on blue here because it is a color that can go well with a vast variety of hues and styles. We also believe in its power to heal, calm, and soothe. Blue can inspire healing, serenity, and peace…and we are devoted to inspiring and promoting these things in the world.
REGARDING SALES HERE AT http://www.thebluehours.etsy.com: The majority of any profits from sales goes towards our Backyard Wildlife Habitat project. Upon purchasing our home in 2000, we worked to create a small backyard wildlife sanctuary for the dwindling wildlife in our region. Our backyard is officially certified by the National Wildlife Federation. (ID Number: 35738.) Using sustainable gardening techniques, we have been able to create a wildlife sanctuary that provides wildlife with food, water, cover, and places to raise young.
(For more information about starting your own Backyard Wildlife Habitat project, please visit: http://www.nwf.org/gardenforwildlife/create.cfm.)
We also care for the stray/feral cats near our home. All seven of our cats (and all the cats that we have ever had in our lifetime) are rescued-cats.
Thank you so much for stopping by our little blue haven nestled in cyberspace…..
Peace & Blessings!
