"I love shopping, particularly around the holiday time, so that felt really just organic and exciting to me," she shared.

In the future, Mindy hopes that the holidays will be a time for "bonding" with her children, revealing that when she was growing up her family would "drop everything" to help her own mother with the cooking as the family loved "all of Americana".

"The biggest tradition I had in my house [growing up] was that for a holiday like Thanksgiving, we dropped everything and just helped my mom as sous chefs," she said.

"She loved throwing a huge Thanksgiving and preparing for three or four days beforehand."

Mindy, mom to three-year-old Katherine and one-year-old Spencer, then revealed her hopes, adding: "If my kids go to college and they have the week off for Thanksgiving, they don't come in the day before.

"I want them there the whole week helping set up, helping clean up the house."

The collection sees six unique artisans from around the globe work with the star to create items such as the Christmas Tree Cheese Board Set, and the Minimalist Green and Gold Porcelain Bud Vase.

"I love shopping, particularly around the holiday time, so that felt really just organic and exciting to me," she added.

Other gifts include a personalized leather luggage tag and leather bookmark, white herringbone handcrafted linen, items from artisanal skincare brand 16J Organics including the Honey Ginger Anise Body Scrub and Sweet Water Decor's Warm + Cozy candle.
