Fish art eye pillow give away !!

Celebrating the end of my fun fishy' week, I have a give away for all you fabulous readers to enter..

Using the watercolor fish from Wednesday's post, I printed it  onto cotton fabric and made an eye pillow filled with organic flax seeds and heavenly Texas hill country lavender.

Perfect for an afternoon snooze, helping you to relax on a long flight, relief from a headache or eye tension, use during meditation or after yoga..or throw it around just for a little aromatherapy lavender magic'.
If you shake it up a little, the flax seeds press against the lavender buds to release more delicious aroma.

To enter ..
just leave a comment below.. stating what type of sea life/creature/animal you would like to see me draw next...
that's it.. ( just remember to leave a way for me to reach you if you are the winner and don't have a blog :)

The winner will be drawn from a hat ( yes.. a real one)  On Monday the 8th August .
yay for winning stuff !!  What is more fun than resting with a nice cool fish on your face?

Good luck.. Cheers , H xx

PS . pop your fishy' friend in the freezer for a bit..ahhhh...nice...
