Happy Arab American Heritage Month! At Mint + Laurel, we're thrilled to celebrate this time by honoring the rich cultural traditions of the Arab world. Founded by three passionate Syrian-American women, our mission is to preserve and share the artistry and stories behind Middle Eastern craftsmanship.
