| In 2002, Green Daisy President and Founder, Kim Lavine, took her kitchen table idea, the Wuvit-–a designer spa therapy pillow you heat in the microwave–to $225,000 in sales in just 8 weeks. From the introduction at one local gift store in December of 2001, to over 200 fine department stores and over 500 specialty retailers across the country, her story keeps developing.Lavine has accomplished numerous design, sales, manufacturing and distribution feats with little more than determination, the equity in her home and personal savings. Her insistence on using top-quality designer fabrics in the hottest home decorator trends, is what sets her products apart. Kim is especially proud of the Green Daisy Faith Hope & Love line. She designed the fabric after seeing first-hand through family members the horrific demands of breast cancer. She knew she needed to raise awareness about early detection, and raise money for breast cancer research. In 2007, Kim posted another bestseller with the release of her book Mommy Millionaire: How I Turned My Kitchen Table Idea Into a Million Dollars and How You Can Too (St. Martins Press-Feb -07).
