Hi! Sally Elshorafa here—the Home and Garden Editor on the BuzzFeed Shopping team.
I'm originally from San Francisco but I now reside in a tiny beach town right outside of Los Angeles, which is awesome because I'm currently going through a beach goth stage (aesthetically). Normally I have pretty cool and varied hobbies and interests, but now that I'm nearing the eighth month of my first pregnancy, all I have is baby brain. It's so all-consuming, and I'm constantly trying to make sure I have everything we need without overbuying. Thankfully there's a huge community of indie sellers who create for folks in my position, so shopping and planning has been really fun so far. Image: Sally Elshorafa WHAT I'M LOVING NOW
Image: Etsy Our baby's nursery doesn't have a theme per se, but we are all about that beach life and love living so close to the ocean. My mom found this mobile, and knowing that I love felt art, she got it as a present for us. Image: Etsy My growing belly is making it difficult for me to shave my legs, so I decided to start exfoliating them with this sugar scrub from Uniquely Bath Co., which is a Black woman-owned small business out of Atlanta. It does such a good job of getting rid of dead skin that I don't have to shave my legs nearly as often as I used to. Image: Block Shop Block Shop is this super cool textile and design studio out of Los Angeles, and I am dying for a reason to buy one of their robes. As I get closer to birth, clothes are becoming ill-fitting and uncomfortable. If I had this robe I would just wear it with a pair of sweats literally every day of the week. Image: NY Times Store Taking a deep breath and staring up at clouds is such a vibe, so when I found this reprint of a special section from the NY Times that teaches children about clouds, I knew I had to have it. The plan is to get it framed and eventually hang it in the nursery. It's the best $5 I've ever spent.
