    A Gift Guide for New Moms

    With the arrival of Kelsey’s (our Digital Marketing Director) beautiful baby girl, we wanted to celebrate all the new moms out there! We’ve curated some items perfect for gifting to the new moms in your life as they enter a new and exciting chapter.


    Help them show off their “mom pride” with one of our mom themed shirts, sweatshirts, and jewelry. The Mama Half-Moon necklace from hello Adorn, is the perfect way to honor motherhood everyday. The Rainbow Midwest Mama tee and the Revolutionary Love tee (which are both on sale at the moment!) are perfect to add some flair to any mother’s wardrobe. The Midwest Mama Sweatshirt is perfect for the upcoming cooler temperatures.

     

     

    New moms always have tons to carry, for their little one and themselves, so why not treat them to a new tote bag or backpack? These bold printed totes from Maika are the perfect size to haul around any items they may need throughout the day. These brand new mini backpacks are a perfect, hands free option for new moms with their hands full.

    Help them relax and refresh with one of our many apothecary items. The soap cube or bath fizzies set is an excellent way to help them elevate their “me” time through a nice and relaxing bath. For any aches and pains, the Feel Good Muscle Balm is sure to help. And to aid with any restless nights, the Dreamy Sleep Balm is there to help.

    The Baby Passport Journal is a great way for new moms to track all of their littles ones' new experiences, and even includes places to put photos.

  • These Are A Few Of Clove's Favorite Things

    These Are A Few Of Clove's Favorite Things

    Our Digital Marketing Intern, Clove, would describe her personal style as colorful, semi-maximalist. This describes her wardrobe but also her college apartment located in the heart of Madison, WI.


    She describes as colorful, semi-maximalist as one who:

    • Knows you can never have too many accessories
    • Knick-knacks are a central part of home decor
    • Avoids dark colors when it comes to decorating and when picking out an outfit – the brighter the color, the better.

    One issue that Clove always seems to have is that she can always find something at the shop that catches her eye. Whether that be a new accessory or a new piece of decor, Grasshopper Goods can be a dangerously, good place for her. Below, she has listed some of her favorite items from the shop:


    Brookie Snapback in Olive

    “Although I don’t fish, nor have I ever fished, something about the Brookie Snapback really drew me in. This hat is the perfect mixture of comfort meets style. It may be a more “masculine” hat, but I love a good style challenge. I was so drawn to this hat, but often questioned where I would wear it. I finally decided to take a chance on it, and I’m here to tell you this is one of my all time favorite hats.”


    Mini Daisy Flower Clips

    “The return of Y2K style can be seen with these colorful clips. I have both sets, and wear them religiously. Perfect for when you wear your hair up or down, these clips provide a youthful aspect to any outfit.”

    Summer Hours Sample Set

    “The perfect set for everyday and on-the-go. I recently bought these to bring on a trip, and they were perfect for traveling. These sweet, summer scents offer variety for when you’re traveling, making you not limited to one certain scent.”

     

    Meow Pennant

    “It may sound a little weird to admit that one of my best friends is an eight pound orange cat, but she’s seriously one of the best things in my life. I’ve always been a “cat lady” and what better way to show it off than by hanging up this Meow Pennant loudly and proudly. I usually associate pennants with sports, but why not show some love for our favorite, fluffy friends?”
