Featured Artisan: The Neighborgoods

Hi, I'm Jodi, the creator, maker, designer, and illustrator behind The Neighborgoods. In addition to running this home goods business I also run a graphic design business, Hello Neighbor Designs, focusing on branding and packaging for clients in the food industry. I love that I am able to combine my two passions of food and design in all of my work! On a quest to create unique holiday gifts for friends and family two years ago, I illustrated a few special recipes thinking it would be fun to print them onto dish towels - the perfect gift in my mind. One thing led to another and I ended up creating more designs and a ton of screen printed dish towel gifts...for EVERYONE! I am so excited to have been selected to participate in the Martha Stewart American Made program. It is an honor to be recognized by such an an amazing brand that celebrates handmade, local, passion, quality craftsmanship and everything I love about running this business and sharing my goods with all of you.

My products are inspired by my love of food: whether it's the natural beauty I find walking through the farmers market, or the enjoyment I get when baking up sweet treats. My designs begin as pencil sketches and once the idea is formed, I develop the overall layout on the computer. It is exciting when everything comes together and the graphic is finalized, but that is only the beginning; it is then time to start printing! Each towel is printed by hand, with eco-friendly, water-based inks to maintain a handmade quality that makes them so special. Once the printing is finished I fold each towel and package them up to get ready to ship out to all of you. I ensure that a lot of love goes into each individual towel, and in turn into your home.
