I just love my Allorahandmade necklace. I remember it came on a day when I was feeling like I didn't have anything to match my outfit. It came in the mail just in time for me to wear it out to one of my doctor's appointments. Totally brightened my day.
If you'd like a gift to brighten a cloudy day, try the "Party Sunny" Necklace, pictured to left. It will be given to one lucky Grosgrain reader.
Completely handmade and unique, each piece will have your friends asking "where did you get that!?!"
After much encouragement from friends and family, Jessica finally decided to offer her creations on etsy in hopes that someone else will find inspiration and beauty in what she has fashioned with her own two hands.
When she's not busy mommy-ing, wife-ing, or Allora-ing, Jessica enjoys running and eating. Too bad they cancel eachother out:) She gets giddy hanging out with good girlfriends, eating authentic mexican food, and watching so you think you can dance (i admit it!). She hopes you find something you love, and something that helps you feel like your best self.
Says Jessica, "One of my favorite things is to be able to gift something one of a kind and unique - that was not made in China, but was made by me. This has always been my best creative process- making something beautiful for someone I love. I am constantly amazed and humbled that someone would want to buy something that I made! Wow! Cool!"
For all her up-to-date inspirations and creations, check out her lovely blog.
