I want to introduce you to the amazing creator behind Allora Handmade, the sponsor of today’s Give Back.

 

Meet Jessica.

allorahandmade.com | about me_1312342671478

I believe that creativity is good for the soul. I love my family with all that I am. I have 2 boys (Owen -3 and Henry-1 1/2) who keep me on my toes and make me smile (when they aren’t making me crazy.) I have moved 23 times in the last 10 years. Our latest move was to help my husband finish school. I crave mexican food daily. The beach makes me giddy. (Must be the San Diego girl in me). I have learned more about myself in the last 2 years than in the 29 before them. I wish I was a dancer. I cherish real friendships. I consider motherhood an honor. I love my business and what it’s become, but my real job as a wife and mother challenges me more than anything else I’ve ever done.

  13. I can’t decide between the modern pearl rosette statement necklace for me or the baby rosies headband for my niece.

  14. I love everything in the shop but my fave (I think) is the gray modern pearl rosette statement necklace. it would go lovely with my new dress 🙂

  20. Thank you so much for sharing this site – her pieces are so pretty. I especially liked the Modern Pearl Rosette statement necklace in Rich Red. It is so pretty and I’m going to keep my eyes on her site and see what other beautiful things she comes up with. Thank you Rachel.

  27. I’m a sucker for headbands, so I thinkmy fav would be the three musketeers headband. I couldn’t possible go wrong with a name like that!

  34. I LOVED the modern pearl rosette statement necklace {coral}
    I wish my husband would read this and buy it for me! 🙂 I hope I win it at least 🙂

  36. How unfair to make us choose. 😉

    I love all of her items. They are like the perfect balance of vintagesque and modern beauty.

    I love the modern rosette necklace in pacific. and in turquoise. and in peach. Okay I like a lot of them! Definitely one of the necklaces. I’m a little undecided on which color I like best.

  41. Holy moly. I can’t believe I have never been to that site before. The stuff – all of it – is so stunning!

    I really love the headbands…are they adult-sized, or just for babies…because I totally want them for me!

  50. I would choose the double trouble rosette on black satin u shape headband (I’d love the green or the light yellow)

  51. I adore everything Jessica makes. I have earrings and a necklace that I get compliments on all the time. I would LOVE to get a headband too.
