WELCOME!

I’m Alexa, and my goal is to be the world’s greatest grandma. To me, there is no greater expression of love than to make something for your loved one. Handmade items, homemade meals, and family traditions help bring us closer to the ones who matter most. Join me on my journey of spreading love – 10% of my proceeds go towards organizations that help children in foster care.
