I love hearing “this is my best friend/mom/weird cousin visiting from out of town and I wanted to bring them to my favorite store”. And I love when you tell me you went to a really good new restaurant and I have to order the shrimp. Or when you have a job interview and you buy something to wear for it and then you come back to tell me you got the job. Or when we pick out a gift together for someone you love. Or sometimes, when we pick out a gift together for someone you hate. Thanks for doing all of that. It all makes my heart sing.
My 2026 resolution is to make the back room look slightly less like a set from a post-apocalyptic movie about hoarding zombies. Bets on if I can achieve it?
Lots of love to our friends, customers, and especially to and for being an all time dream team.
We are open NYE 11-3, closed 1/1, and back to normal hours 1/2 and beyond.
Cheers 🥂,
-Hallie
Wishing you a very merry Christmas, joyous Kwanzaa, (hope your Chanukah was lit last week), and a happy new year.
We’ll be back open as normal on 12/26 thanks to my amazing team + ❤️❤️
Closed Christmas Day
Back at it 12/26 11-6 😘
(This is a few years old and my resolution is to make a part 2 next year 😘)
Big shoutout to for doing the hard parts, and the ridiculously talented photogs, models, and HMUA girlies who have inspired and shaped the whole vibe of the brand.
Paying for clothing is also paying for someone’s time. Your clothes don’t consist solely of fabric, thread, buttons, zippers. They are made of time, and of talent. But you don’t often see the people making your clothes, and we have been conditioned (through fast fashion and forced labor) to not value their contribution.
We have the word “Handmade” in our name as a reminder that your clothing is made by hand. But it’s important to remember that ALL clothing is made by hand. The choice is not whether to buy handmade, it’s whether to value the hands that are doing the making.
I’m Hallie Borden, the owner of Milk Handmade. I’m a native Chicagoan but I’ve never had a Chicago-style hotdog 🌭. My favorite hobby is wine tasting🍷. I hate sports but I have a weird crush on Benny the Bull. I believe in dibs🪑. I think Christmas is a full month too early and everyone’s lives would improve if we could move it to the end of January🎄. I have a husband (Kyle) and a dog (Timón) — both are sweet, funny, and very tall. I’m a ♌️ ♍️ ♐️ and it absolutely checks out. I spend way too much money on travel and fancy soap. I’m queer🌈, I’m Jewish ✡️, and I’m a Bravoholic👠.
I opened Milk when I was 24, after realizing office life was not for me. I love small businesses and I love Andersonville. I also co-own with my sister Dana, so I split my time between both shops and have an awesome staff who picks up the slack. I feel ridiculously lucky to get to do what I love for work and I try to never take that for granted.
Say hey in the comments and tell me your favorite Real Housewives franchise / fight me about dibs⛄️
