Atomic Garden | Story
Adrienne Armstrong and Jamie Kidson started Atomic Garden were both clothing designers but actually didn’t meet at work, they met at their kid’s soccer game. They both were in search of new careers and bonded over a mutual love for sustainability and craftsmanship, and thus Atomic Garden was born.
Atomic Garden | Why they Matter
Walking into this shop, just feels right. It’s the perfect balance of a little something for every room in the house, and clear attention to beautiful and functional, well-crafted products.
From sustainable kitchen products like beeswax wraps, unpaper towels and wooden pot scrubbers to candles, classic enamel mugs, and even unicorn chalk for the kiddos, it’s the perfect place to pick up a thoughtful gift for a friend and something for your home.
I’ve picked up my favorite feminist keychain ring there as well as some gorgeous red handmade triangle-shaped tapered candles. I’ve learned my lesson about bringing the kiddo, she LOVES asking for a “special treat” when we go and luckily I’ve managed to escape with just a cute hair clip for her.
