Rainbow Chore chart
Give the gift of organization in your home with this simple and colorful chore chart. The file is fully customizable to suit your needs, and you can print it to stick in a scrapbook, bullet journal, or even hang up on the fridge.
Monstera planter
This lovely, pottery planter will make the perfect gift for any plant parents – or actual parents – in your life. Each planter is hand-thrown on the potter’s wheel and includes six glaze options to choose from (including Sexy Mermaid Blue Green and Malibu Barbara Pink) and the choice to have an attached or separate saucer.
Pen/Pencil Gift Set
Whether you want to send your mom or dad with something special to the office, or simply a keepsake to remind them of you, this pen/pencil set can make a simple yet classy gift. Each set comes with two wood-turned writing utensils in a magnetic case, customizable as two pens, pencils, or one pencil and one pen, with the additional option of an engraving.
The Luna Desk
The ideal gift for any work-from-home parent, this cleverly designed mobile desk can transform to make any surface the perfect workstation! Its unique design allows it to “wax and wane” between full moon and half moon phases, and it has two adjustable whiteboard trays for any needed notetaking or absentminded doodles.
turned Wood razor
Nothing makes a more practical gift than a razor, so why not let your dad (or mom – she shaves too!) feel like royalty while you’re at it? This refillable razor is made from polished, turned wood and shiny brass hardware, providing a sleek and elegant design.
Skull Print Rockabilly Headband and Cassette Print Rockabilly Headband
If you’re looking for a stylish gift, these adjustable retro headbands will add a flare of personality to any outfit. Each handstitched headband is made from 100% cotton fabric and is approximately 33 inches long by 2.5 inches wide.
