Mother necklaces that pay homage to mother earth too
When my son handed me a gorgeous handmade bird necklace for my 29th birthday this year (heh), I had no idea what cool people were behind it. But now that I've gotten to know more about Asheville's Elijah and Rhonda Wyman of Figs & Ginger, I can't shut up about this nature-loving company.
