• MaeMarie Wraps feature wearable intentions for every purpose-driven, ambitious dreamer in your life. Each time you wrap a bracelet, you repeat an affirmation and carry it with you as you wear it. Once the wrap is on, it feels weightless; days, weeks or months may pass before you take it off. It’s a way to remember what is divine in you: your desire for well-being using your own mindfulness. Available in different colors and style. All profits from the Honoring Oxford (pictured) will be donated to the Oxford High School GoFundMe. $38 and up, maemariewraps.com
