Modern Mama is a handmade brand. Everything is made out of my home in Richmond, Texas. We like to oversee all parts of our operation so we can be sure that we are being as conscious as possible, down to the last scrap of material. 

Modern Mama is a brand founded in passion. Growing up, I was always surrounded by fabric. My grandmother raised me and taught me all the tricks of the trade when it came to sewing. As a child, I was in awe of how scraps of fabric could be come art. I loved even more how custom my wardrobe could be if I made it! 

In high school I took apparel construction and pattern making and the rest is history! I opened my first business, making hair bows, and my passion has only grown.

I'm at the point in my life where all of my friends are having babies and no longer wearing hair bows and thus, Modern Mama was born! One friend asking for custom cloth diapers has now turned into a whole new passion.

After realizing how much more waste I produced as a mama between baby wipes, paper towels and everything else I was overwhelmed! I started making reusable options for all the disposable things I was using and wanted to share them with you. Modern Mama has evolved along with me throughout the years and I am so happy to be able to make being eco friendly easy for all the other mamas out there.

After being a mom for a couple years I realized us mamas have a lot to stress about, the future of our country as one of them. I want to help build a better tomorrow and that's why I started making the tee shirts. With the donation model, these shirts are supporting local and important charities each and every month.
