Eid is less than two weeks away, and this year Ramadan has been busier than ever for most mamas. I’m just coming to realize that I need to order gifts this week for me to get them in time, wrap them and have it ready to be dropped off to friends and family. To make your life easier, I’m compiling a list of small businesses who cater to the Muslim Market and have excellent customer service, which is important to me, personally!
1. Khitatii This family owned and operated business provides beautifully handcrafted Islamic wall art. All art pieces are made of short Surahs and Ayahs that are of Islamic significance. I have a piece for my home and absolutely love it.
2. Up a Notch Gifts If you are looking for personalized candy wrappers, Kiran has a great variety of designs and colors to choose from. She now offers Ramadan and Eid gift boxes which make a beautiful gift for friends and family who have a sweet tooth and like that personalized touch! She’ll even include a handwritten note for you!
3. Jasmine+Marigold Looking for matching Eid pjs? Jasmine + Marigold has you covered! They have newborn-adult sizes for that perfect Chaand Raat picture. They also have a variety of other products that celebrate the richness of Eastern culture.
4. Zudo You May have seen their 4 Kul Necklace everywhere on Instagram, and rightly so because not only is this necklace beautiful and high quality but it also serves as a reminder of the powerful benefits the surahs generate, including safety, ability to overcome your fears and endure any poisons of the heart.
5. Eid Party.Co For anybody who loves going over the top with decor, this is the place to shop! They have everything from cake toppers, to balloons, banners and serving trays. I love to blow up their Eid balloons and tie it to the gift boxes for that extra touch!
6. Jewelry : The Nacre I’m currently obsessing over their Kundan Khussas which are so in trend right now. They also have a large variety of Ethnic Jewelry which will compliment any desi outfit!
Rouge by Rooj Amir also has some unique pieces of jewelry! These hand painted Mina Hoop earrings are so fun!
Another favorite is Jewels by Sunaina! Their contemporary jewelry makes a perfect gift for an accessory lover in your life!
7. Kiki Khan Photography I’m a huge fan of documenting life’s milestones as well as every day moments. If you are looking for a gift for someone who has it all, look no further than a session with Kiki! She is amazing with putting people at easy and is so creative and fun with props!
I hope this helps. I hope you are all enjoying the promised blessings of this month. Happy Ramadan!
