I don’t have children. I have no immediate plans to have any. But every once in a while, I come across something so truly adorable that I (almost) wish I had a child.
Case in point: this uber cute owl. Not only is it just about the cutest thing I’ve ever seen, it’s also hand-made by a collective of knitters in rural Kenya, imported by a company that monitors their working conditions, and sold by a company that only sells sustainable items.
And look at these sting rays! What an unusual choice! I love it. This is also a fair trade item, made in Nepal. Look at the bellies!
Hilarious! Apparently these were designed to be chew toys, so if you have a pet that appreciates oddities, this would be a perfect gift.
Branch has plenty for adults, as well. Most of their furniture is typically out of my price range (a side effect of being well-made of sustainable materials), but they have a lot of stellar house wares and accessories.
One of my favorites is the (not exactly affordable) off pitcher and cup. Gorgeous, a bit quirky, and 100% sustainable. It suits me perfectly.
