It's time to kick off some things I have planned for this Mother's Day! I decided, very last minute I might add, that I wanted to do a few giveaways to celebrate motherhood and the women that give of themselves every day to make their children's lives the best they can be.
This first one is a DOOZY! I "met" Jasmine of Naturally Knotty via twitter. This new social media genius has people networking in about a second! I asked her about doing a review after seeing her site and she was not just friendly and approachable but, very down to earth and real. She has a warmth to her that comes through even the most sterile and unfeeling environment out there, our computers.
If you haven't seen the shop or what they are about, you're missing out. I adore Asian inspired fabrics and designs. I love it when they are modernized and made into something useful. Naturally Knotty's bags are delicious. It's the only word that comes to mind. I love the color choices and combinations, I love the glistening silk and sateen, I love the springy colors of her bamboo wraps and I love the different styles of bags.
Oh and did you know she even has something for babies? She sells a gorgeous cashmere baby set through Costco that has recently been dropped to $124.99 and that covers shipping and handling.
Best of all, this is yet another mama who has used her talents to make a way in the entrepreneurial world and make a difference to her family, as well as others. She is committed to environmentally friendly manufacturing processes, she keeps overhead low to pass savings on to consumers, she is giving back to those less fortunate, and uses factory overstock and recycled materials.
What did I get to review? Oh, just a little, black, CASHMERE(hello!) wrap that is going to go to one lucky mom as a great Mother's day thank you, for all you do! Made with 300 g worsted cashmere, this wrap is wonderfully soft and light weight and provides warmth for a chill too. This would make a great evening, Spring, or Autumn wrap when you want to look classy, stylish and wear something sleeveless. It comes in a very neutral black or charcoal grey to go with everything. This wrap is six feet long! Long enough to wear for almost any size woman and any way you'd like.
