Rosie’s Place

I first learned about Rosie’s Place a few years ago when I purchased a couple of vintage button bookmarks from J. Jill as gifts. Rosie’s Place, based in Boston, is a sanctuary for poor and homeless women, and the Women’s Craft Cooperative at Rosie’s Place helps “women help themselves by turning new and vintage buttons into decorative accessories,” including wonderful bookmarks, barrettes, necklaces, magnets, pins and key chains. Add Rosie’s Place to your feel-good-about-purchasing-gifts-here list.
