I love popping into Bay-Made when I am in the area! They have been my go to spot for gifts (and treats for myself!). I appreciate how Bay-Made features local artists and art/decor that feels true to the East Bay. One of my most treasured pieces of art is a poppy print I picked up from them a couple years back!

For the past 6 years, I have partnered with Sarajane and Bay-Made to create gift boxes for my firm's clients. Sarajane is great at thinking, literally, outside the box with me. Her access to local artisans and interesting goods and goodies translates to unique and welcome gifts. She's the BEST!

I ordered a spa gift box for my mom for Mother's Day, my mom just got it and loves it! This shop is great, with a super cute shop cat, and they have excellent customer service!
