The Little Flower Collective 7QT

Linking up with Kelly at This Ain't the Lyceum for a special edition of 7 Quick Takes sponsored by The Little Flower Collective.

The Little Flower Collective is the brainchild of my friend Samantha. She created this wonderful little online boutique that "celebrates the unique beauty of every woman. 'If every flower wanted to be a rose, spring would lose its loveliness'."

All of the items are made by women, for women, and are ethically sourced.
A percentage of the profits is also donated to help women. For example, right now 10% of all shop profits go towards teaching girls how to code + write.

I picked the Ada Lovelace Infinity Scarf to try out.


It's so comfy and soft!

I really like the lace inset that mixes up the look of the scarf.



I'm thinking this could make a good veil back up for mass too. I'm always on the lookout for something in a neutral color for weddings, first communions, and other events where dark colors are not ideal but wearing white would be weird. (More on what I think about that here.

Never heard of Ada Lovelace?


Ada Lovelace was a brilliant English mathematician and is considered to have written the first computer program between 1842 and 1843. She referred to this hypothetical computer as an "analytical engine" and even went so far as to ask questions about how people and society would relate to this technology for collaboration. 

Truly a woman ahead of her time.

My package also came with this great Benedictine Blessing Bracelet!

Sam didn't know this when she sent it to me, but I'm allergic to most metals. I can only wear most metal jewelry for a short amount of time before my skin starts to burn and itch (with the exception of my engagement ring and wedding ring - go figure.)
Well I wore this all day without a single mark. The cord lifts the metal above my skin, so there is no metal touching me. It's amazing!

No cross burned into my skin like I'm a vampire! (True story.)

My package came with these great little name tags. The idea is you define who and what you are.
