Fall Resolution for me. Gift Ideas for you.
It is just too hot in the summer in Florida to do any major outdoor exercising. I manage bike rides, swimming and walks, but that’s about it. Hoever, the constant rain in the summer makes it difficult to do even that. I decided to make a fall resolution to get outside more and exercise and I also decided to peruse etsy for things that may be used to help with the fall resolution and found more than I thought I would. I’m also giving all these items my Travel Turtle Holiday Gift Recommendation Seal. From now until the holidays, I will add this seal so that my non-etsy readers will be able to quickly see that the items I’m posting about might make a good gift for a friend.

First, for inspiration and decoration, the Yoga Girl Screen Print by Amanda Kindregan (I love the colors):

ImpromptuDesigns sells a lot of yoga mat bags, but this is my favorite. I love that there is a pocket attached to the bag.

I like this food and exercise diary tracker by greenchairpress. It’s small size doesn’t use up a lot of space, but it still offers ample room to keep track of your daily eating and exercise.

I LOVE this armband (Power Bandz Exercise in Style Armband Sporty Squares) for more than one reason. I love how practical it is, it hold money, ipods, keys. I also love the fabric used. Most of all, I love what the armband represents - why etsy is such a great place to shop. There are so many products on etsy that are a result of someone out there just not finding the right thing at the store. I have never seen an armband at the store that was a fun color, or had a big enough pocket for my needs. This does. Thanks designzbyjen
And finally, this is my last item focused on exercise (for now). It’s a really cute cupcake sweatband by hollystott. It would make a great gift, stocking stuffer, fall surprise-gift day gift, etc.

Now go and check out these shops, tell them you saw these items on travelturtle.net. Favorite them and purchase early. Many of these items are made to order and those that aren’t just might sell out if you wait to long.


I just have to tell you how much I love your blog. Everyday when I stop by I can’t wait to see the beautiful pieces of homemade goodness that you have to share. You have a great blog and I just love it!
