This wrapping order was so much fun. The gift… let’s just say it’s hot. And the gifter wanted to make it suspenseful so there are four layers to unwrap.

🌈💐🎁 Mother’s Day Collab Box by Moms for Moms!

Mother’s Day is just around the corner, but we all know that mothers deserve more than a day or even a month! They keep our worlds running.

People become moms in different ways with with different stories! Some have multiple children, some have 1, some have none due to pregnancy difficulties, others have lost theirs along the way, while others are expecting their arrival. They are grandmothers & aunts caring for family. They are big sisters & foster moms. They have given birth or adopted. But they all deserve love and self care!

Every item in the box was crafted by a mother here in Central Ohio. Our sustainable & local collaboration box includes a Bohemian Cactus Flower candle and a Lavender & Chamomile bath-soak from Luna y Tierra, a funky & unique card (that encompasses many of the names we hear from our little ones) from Noble and Grey and of course a stunning reusable and sustainable box & wrapping from Parsons Parcels!

Support three local businesses run by working moms and order yours today!

By Moms for Moms! We are three moms who know that taking care of ourselves is an important part of parenting. Support local small businesses and treat yourself or a mom in your life. If you’re shipping this straight to the recipient we’d love to write a gift note on the card for you. DEADLINE F

I know it's hard to believe but the way you feel loved might not be the way others feel loved. If you haven't heard of Love Languages you can visit this website to learn more. Without further ado, here are my suggestions. Words of Affirmation: If you're not the mushy type this one can be difficult to know what to say....

I love the romance of an excessively big bow. I’m available for custom Valentine’s Day (or birthday, wedding, Imbolc, etc) wrapping.

We could all use a reminder right now that we are loved. Luna y Tierra, Noble and Grey, and I wanted to create a box for Valentine’s Day that you could gift to your lover, best friend, sibling, parent, or maybe even yourself 😉.

It includes a beautiful card from Noble and Grey that can easily be framed after, a bohemian candle and prickly pear lotion from Luna y Tierra, all wrapped up in sustainable packaging, a hand made gift tag, and a sprig of dried flowers.

Our Valentine’s Day collab gift box has arrived! We collaborated on this gift box because we are passionate about creating magical moments. We love that this package could be sweet surprise for your romantic partner or for your best pal. Imagine their face when they receive this gorgeous package! ...

Our amazing collab box is coming in less than 10 days! I am thrilled about the energy, beauty and love dedicated to this project! This isn’t just about Valentine’s Day or relationships amongst couples. This is about bringing a little color, light and joy during the toughest times! Honor and surprise a friend, neighbor, partner, spouse, co-worker, essential worker, teachers, mail person, lover, parents, children... the list goes on ... it’s about taking the time for self care and investing in local artists with all natural, up cycled and sustainable products!

I’ve been spending these slow winter days experimenting with new wrapping techniques. 2020 taught me SO much. I’m processing all of it and refining everything from the website to the tape.

Some people really get a thrill out of that last minute shopping. It's not really for me but this year has been crazy busy and I'll admit that I've found myself scrambling on a couple things. Here are my thoughts on how to get through that final stretch without your gifts appearing like an afterthought. Leverage your local shops: My first suggestion is to reach out to your local small businesses....

Today we are delivering kits to amazing individuals in our community! Our first on the list is a teacher and mother! Her son was killed in 2013 and she was also the teacher of Casey Goodson. We can not imagine the pain this mother feels having lost her son and then a student. We want her to know she is seen and her son will never be forgotten! Casey Goodson will never be forgotten either! Black Lives Matter and now more than ever we must continue to push elected officials! This isn’t about a few bad apples, this is about an entire department and institution built on racism!

Packing up orders and kits for donating to a few really amazing women and femmes with Luna y Tierra and Noble and Grey. We still have a few left if you need a last minute gift. Local pick up available! https://www.nobleandgrey.com/shop/p/self-care-kit

We are highlighting some of the amazing women our donated kits will be going to.

Why purchase a ✨self care ✨ kit from us? Some of our free kits are for some amazing, strong and powerful women/femmes ... those who are living in sanctuary ... living in the shadows, fearing deportation and being separated from their loved ones! We want to bring a small ray of sunshine to their holidays! When you purchase a kit, a portion of the purchase goes to creating free self care kits! So proud of the work that my collab partners do with our community!
