Baby Gift Bundles Restocked — and Even Sweeter Than Before

We’re happy to share that our Baby Gift Bundles are back in stock—and we’ve added some beautiful new colors to the mix!

Each bundle is carefully curated with love, intention, and a deep respect for Palestinian tradition and craftsmanship. Among the highlights are the felted wool baby booties, one of our most cherished keepsakes. These tiny treasures are handmade with locally sourced wool from the annual sheep shearing season. The wool is cleaned, carded, hand-dyed, and then felted with care by the incredible community at Ma’an lil Hayyat in Bethlehem—a project that brings dignity, purpose, and joy to its makers.

We’ve also included our Nursing Necklaces, which are not only practical but also become precious mementos for your child to treasure one day. These necklaces are designed with safe, sensory play in mind.

But there’s one piece in our baby collection that holds an especially personal story: the Little Olea teething accessories. When Handmade Palestine’s founder, Morgan Totah, became a first-time mom, her sister-in-law gifted her a “handmade” teething ring. It seemed sweet—until the wood splintered and stained her baby’s mouth. That moment sparked a journey.

Morgan began researching natural materials and fell in love with olive wood—a symbol of resilience and peace in Palestine, and a naturally antibacterial wood that’s safe for teething. She searched Bethlehem’s olive wood workshops for someone to craft high-quality beads, partnered with women in Deir Ghassaneh to crochet vibrant, textured beads, and worked with the amazing Marisabel Darras in Ramallah to assemble every piece by hand.

The result is Little Olea—a line of teething rings and nursing necklaces that are 100% natural, safe, and rooted in Palestinian craftsmanship.

Whether you’re welcoming a new baby or searching for the perfect gift for a new mama, our Baby Gift Bundles are thoughtful, meaningful, and made to last.

Please note: Our fulfillment manager is on a well-deserved annual leave. Orders from our global store at handmadepalestine.com will begin shipping July 1. Thank you for your patience and continued support.

With love and solidarity,

The Handmade Palestine Team
