There is a wide variety of quirky, intriguing, and super cool products. She also has FootPool behind her store. What is FootPool? It's like pool, but if pool was played like soccer. What an amazing concept!!! I love, love, love her pups. They were the cherry on top. I can't wait to come back to treat myself!
