July is happiest with wet feet and a sun-warmed heart.

Some summers are measured by calendars. The best ones are measured by afternoons that seem to last forever. Mermaid Days celebrates the carefree magic of July with playful little mermaids, seashells, blossoms, and cheerful colors that feel right at home beneath blue skies and bright sunshine.

Whether you're watering the garden, gathering flowers, hosting a backyard picnic, chasing grandchildren through the sprinkler, or simply enjoying an iced tea on the porch, Mermaid Days is a reminder that growing older never means giving up your imagination. There is still room for daydreams, laughter, and believing that somewhere beyond the waves, mermaids are watching the sunset, too.

Thoughtfully handcrafted in the Kitchen Mechanic Mercantile's signature crossbody style, Mermaid Days features wide shoulder straps for exceptional comfort and two convenient front pockets accented with cheerful green trim and whimsical flower buttons. Designed to move comfortably from garden path to kitchen sink to summer celebration, it's an apron made for joyful days and happy hearts.

Summer has always been the season that reminds us to play.

"People still sing that old song about Hard-hearted Hannah pouring water on a drowning man. Shoot, I'd probably just give him a towel, invite him to dinner with the family, and tell him not to go around scaring folks like that." — Hannah Marks

Around Bitter Root, Hannah's bark has always been much worse than her bite. Folks have long since learned that if she fusses at you, there's a good chance she's already planning to send you home with leftovers.
