Ashley Mary Pom Earrings

Hands down, my favorite earrings of all time. My friend Ashley Mary is so darn creative I can hardly stand it! I got my hands on a pair of her Pom earrings a few months back and you can find me wearing them almost every day. Ashley hand-makes all of her pom earrings using only vintage thread. That means every color is limited in quantity and all the earrings will have slightly different textures. They make for a one of a kind gift for that special someone of yours or a little treat for yourself.

Vintage Kentucky Rose Designs Rugs

We got a runner for our kitchen and a rug for our living recently from Kentucky Rose Designs and we are in love! Not only with the products but also with Gretchen who is the owner of the shop. She is a vintage rug curator and I don’t  think there is one rug that she hasn’t posted on Instagram that hasn’t stopped me dead in my tracks. Receiving a vintage rug whether that’s for the bathroom, office, or kitchen this would be a one of a kind gift that would leave anyone speechless and grateful.

Faribault Wollen Mill Co

Jordan had the opportunity to go and see the Fairbault Mill in person and was blown away by the entire process and we both went home with a new stripe wool blanket and we haven’t stopped cuddling up in them since. 

It began in 1865 when a German immigrant created what became the Faribault Woolen Mill. The first mill was a wool carding factory, which turned local wool into wool batting. Then in 1892, the current mill was built. Today, the factory is in the same building as when it first began.

During WWI, the Mill supplied over 100,000 blankets to members in the military. They made another 250,000 blankets in WWII and still make blankets for all branches of the military. In 2009, the Mill had to shut down and close for the first time in history due to financial challenges. Then in 2010, there was major flooding on the Cannon River. An investor came in and revived the Mill and the factory was back up and running in 2011. It’s now one of two vertical woolen mills left in the United States – amazing!

Society Socks

Socks are the least donated, but most needed clothing item. Since homeless shelters only accept new socks, it’s much more difficult to donate them compared to other used clothing items. Society Socks will help change this.

Society Socks is all about fostering a community of people that care about each other’s well-being. A gesture as small as donating one pair of socks to charity leads the way to a better society. A pair of socks is a small stepping stone towards greater change. All we need to do is set the gears in motion. 

One of the most effective ways to drive change is through social entrepreneurship. From this, the Society Socks pair for pair model was born. With every pair of socks that is purchased, another pair will be donated to charity. Society Socks is currently working with several charities to not only donate socks, but to help become more involved in communities and create a positive change. For a list of charities we work with, please scroll to the bottom of the page!

Peace Grenades

Peace Grenades is out of my hometown of Roseau, MN and is a screen print and apparel business located in Northern Minnesota. It’s owned by a husband and wife team and the hubby is my little brother Noah’s best friend. As they state on their website, they are basically just the happy couple that lives in the woods and designs awesome gear. They found a creative way to combine their love for art with a spirit for helping others and giving back. They believe by putting their creative minds to work they can make their vision of making the world a more peaceful place a reality. 

The awesome thing about Peace Grenades is we vow to give back a portion of our profits from our line of Peace Grenades Gear to art programs, children’s organizations, and environmental funds in need. Our hope is that Peace Grenades Gear will catapult and form the foundation needed to help grow and spread peace by giving back.

You can find Jamie always rocking his Peace Grenade hat and not only being stylish he says it’s super comfortable and fits him perfectly.

Greens & Chocolate Cookbook

Taylor from Greens & Chocolate is one of our all-time favorite foodie bloggers and she has also written a couple of cook books, both of which we always have a few on hand for gifts. Last year we gave out her 30- Minute Cooking for Two cookbook and it was a hit and now this year she just released another goodie, The Easy 30- Minute Cookbook. Both of which were a hit with the family we gifted them to and in our home! I don’t think there isn’t one recipe we haven’t tried in 30-Minute Cooking for Two Cookbook and have been loving working our way through The Easy 30-Minute Cookbook. So if you’re looking for that perfect simple gift for the active family and friends in your life that love to cook but don’t have the time, this is for them!

Molly Bears

Two of my girlfriends, who sadly have lost babies, both love and adore Molly Bears. When I first saw my girlfriend Heidi post them and then my friend Kelsey, it brought me to tears and also made me think…what an awesome gift to give someone who has lost someone, especially over the holiday seasons when their hearts are hurting the most! My girlfriend mentioned too that they can make it true to size or weight so that you can cuddle in remembrance. Such a special gift for someone who has experienced a loss and there are no words for what to say or do.

cuddle + kind

Another meaningful gift my friend Heidi told me about is cuddle + kind, which also gives back. And how adorable are these dolls for any lucky child?! cuddle+kind was created because a family wanted to make beautiful hand-knit dolls that help feed children. So for every cuddle+kind doll sold, they give 10 meals to children in need. Their dolls are made with natural, high-quality cotton because it’s important to them that they’re safe, soft and cuddly. Every doll is lovingly handcrafted by incredible women artisans in Peru, providing them with a sustainable, fair trade income.
