Hello, I'm Brittany. A boy mama x 2, wife and entrepreneur. I started B.Stamped® in late 2013 as a hobby, driven by passion and my journey into motherhood. I made pieces for family and friends and before I knew it my hobby had turned into a full time business. Before that I was a registered nurse but had always known I needed to stay home with my children. I'm so grateful that B.Stamped® has allowed me to be a stay at home mom (most of the time) while giving me a creative outlet to fulfill my dreams. I love creating these special pieces for others, whether it be a piece of mommy jewelry, a set of bride and groom wedding forks, or an inspirational wrap bracelet. Each piece I make symbolizes a special event in another persons life from a birth, a marriage, a deployment or a tragedy. It is through these pieces that I am able to connect with my customers and I am honored to help create jewelry with such meaning!

It brings so much joy to see your little ones wearing our product.
Hi! I’m Jenn and a mom to 4 girls, Emma ( 8 ), Lily ( 6 ), Sadie ( 3 ) and Cora ( 9 months ).

Handmade gifts are the best way to say "I love you," and this is how we spread joy at our little bow shop.

Founded by an architect mama, Mouse Loves Pig® is all about helping kids unleash the most powerful boredom buster in the world: their own imaginations! No batteries, screen-time, elaborate parent-fueled set-up, or big post-play clean up required. You want your kids to learn how to play independently, open ended toys are the answer. Most kids learn best through play and open ended play helps them externally process the things they are learning and experiencing every day. But unlike most open ended toys, Mouse Loves Pig toys are self-contained to keep the mess at bay, have pockets to encourage effortless clean up, and are designed to foster that independence that we all as parents crave. These are the kind of toys that your child will return to again and again and again for years on end. Take one home today and watch the magic of imagination in action.

Hello fellow small shop owners and faithful supporters! My name is Elizabeth and I am the creator behind Faimel Micro Fashion. I am a stay-at-home mom by day, elementary teacher by trade, and bow maker by night. Faimel was born just a few months into my maternity leave. Once I left the classroom I quickly felt the need for a creative outlet. That is exactly what my shop has been able to provide for me. There is something beautiful about creating something with your hands and then seeing it somewhere else making memories with you and your little ones. Now that I have been part of this small shop community for two years I can't believe the kinship and support from everyone in this community. I hope to continue making high quality hair accessories for the little wild flower in your life.

Savor helps families save what matters most. Founded by two busy moms, Savor offers an easier, more stylish way to save keepsakes. “We all have a plastic tub of shame at the top of the closet,” says Founder and CEO Jennifer McAllister-Nevins. “We realized we weren’t the only ones struggling to find a system to save these precious memories, so we created one.” Savor’s multiple award-winning products transform keepsake organization from a source of guilt to a source of joy. All products are wrapped with custom-dyed book cloth covering acid-free paper so important items are both protected and worthy of display. The design includes adjustable drawers, vertical files, and hand-illustrated labels that suggest what to save and where to find it. Savor quickly expanded beyond baby and kids’ keepsake boxes to make a coordinated and elegant organization line for important items throughout the home.
I started making distressed denim in February of 2014 after receiving pants and long overalls for my son from family members. We live in South Florida and it is hot 51 out of 52 weeks of the year, so I began to cut off all of the legs and make him shorts. I started experimenting more and more every day and ended up opening my own shop that same month. I strive to add the right amount of distressing and bleaching in all the right areas to every item in my shop. I want my pieces to be one of your favorite wardrobe staples!

Father's Factory is a family owned brand that offers magical moments to families around the world with our toy creations. After Jimmy and Tammy’s two daughters were born, Jimmy often built toys with cardboard for them to spark their creativity and imagination. Seeing the many magical moments that his work bought to his family, Jimmy was inspired to spread the joy with parents and kids around the world. He started to design toys that would bring families together and create memories that would last lifetimes. He designed and prototyped the first line of product at his own "factory" (his garage), hence the name “Father’s Factory” was born.
At Holly & Honey, we believe that imagination is one of a child’s greatest asset for success in life.

Wooden dolls offer a simplicity that allows for children to imagine a world where anything is possible. There is no wrong way to play. Holly & Honey offers a variety of doll in our collection, but we also love to create and would be thrilled to paint you the custom dolls of your dreams! Have a favorite show?

I started making these T-shirts as a fun hobby to pass the time while trapped in the house during a national pandemic, a small creative outlet to help pass the days and time from feeling like Groundhog Day. It started with some tie-dye and a slogan that meant so much to me, a couple quick text messages to friends with a simple picture and next thing you know I had a full blown T-shirt studio in my house. It is all thanks to you, that I’m even making T-shirts here today. It has been so fun creating and coming up with new designs to add to your closet. You guys keep me creative and I am forever thankful for that!
