Hello Friends,

With a little mindfulness and a few hours to spare towards a handmade gift, I have just the basket my momma client is going to need post birth! I added a few things for my momma client to have before she gave birth and after. It’s not super complicated to create a basket filled with thoughtful goodies. I love including some items I personally made and other items I source from brands I love and trust. If you are looking to create a healing basket for a friend before their birth, this tutorial is for you! 🌷🌱💗🥹🧺
