Like mother, like daughter. The dynamic duo of Kathy Edwards (mother) and Kelsey Edwards (daughter) have a mission to support local artisans, independent makers and companies doing good. Owning a small business requires a lot of work and the past two years have been filled with so much stress and uncertainty. "So, in 2023 we hope to make more time for rest, relaxation and gratitude. More trust and less thinking we can control things," says Kelsey who was reporting in from the new store in Kirkwood, in town Atlanta. "More yoga, longer walks, and more time spent in nature to gain peace and perspective, along with more time spent with the people (and pets!) that bring us joy." Here are six beauty products to make any daughter and mother stride confidently into the new year.
