Mom Made Gifts - A Holiday Gift Feature

Ever search for a gift and feel at a loss? The things in the big box retailers just don't fit the bill? Sometimes that person you are giving to means so much more than a quick grab from a shelf! We've teamed up with some extremely talented local artisans for a feature post about some great out of the box gift options made by local Lehigh Valley moms! 

We have some amazing local artisans who have offered up some amazing (and adorable might I say) had crafted gift ideas which will WOW anyone! 

Mason J.A.R. Apparel has been making handmade block print children's clothing since 2011. Their organic T-shirts and bodysuits are sure to melt hearts.  Our first Mason J.A.R. Apparel shirt is carefully tucked away for our youngest to soon grow into and we were thrilled this year to get some new prints done for our older Strawberry loving girlies. Ours (shown below) will be gifts this year so we don't have any model shots since they're being hidden for the next few weeks! 

Jessica Russell, the owner of Mason J.A.R. Apparel takes so much pride in her work and each item she makes is carefully handcrafted on organic cotton bodysuits or T-shirts.

I'm in love with these adorable winter hats we got from Jessica this season.  Her detachable bows and flowers are great and allow for the bows to be moved or worn without when desired.
