A Beautiful Legacy: From Wedding Gown to Bridal Robe 🤍✨

There is something incredibly magical about giving new life to a piece of family history. Recently, Mom (Dee) took on a very special order that truly speaks to the heart of what she can do. She took a stunning, traditional wedding gown and transformed it into a stylish, custom bridal robe for the bride to wear while prepping for her big moment.

Looking at the details, you can see how Dee beautifully carried the soul of the original dress into the new design. She preserved the gorgeous, intricate lace trim from the gown's cathedral train and perfectly repurposed it to edge the hemline and wide, flowing sleeves of the satin robe, making it an extremely unique gift that bridges two generations.

Creating amazing transformations like this is exactly what makes my mom so special. Her engineering brain combined with her creative heart allows her to look at something, see both its beauty and its utility, and figure out exactly how to make it happen.

The wedding gift was a huge success, and we are so honored we got to play a small part in such a beautiful family milestone.

Question for you: Do you have a favorite family heirloom that has been passed down or reimagined through the generations? We'd love to hear your stories in the comments! 👇

Remembering & Welcoming the Season ✨💙

This Memorial Day weekend, we are stepping away from the workshop to honor the brave individuals who made the ultimate sacrifice for our freedom. Their service and dedication provide the foundation that allows us to pursue our passions and gather safely as a community every single day. We hold them and their families close in our hearts.

As the long weekend also ushers in the bright, warm opening to summer, we hope your days are filled with the cozy comfort of family, good food, and slow moments together. Whether you are firing up the grill, relaxing in the yard, or taking a weekend drive, please stay safe and warm out there! Sending so much love from our family workshop to your home.

Final Weeks in Kinston: Moving fully to Greenville! 📍🦋

Big changes are coming for our little family business! After a wonderful journey and a beautiful partnership that started right here, we are officially having a "last call" at our Copper Mill Mercantile location in Kinston. Next week, we will be packing up and moving all of our remaining inventory to our central booth at the Copper Mill in Greenville.

We want to send a heartfelt thank you to the amazing Kinston community—you have been so great to us, and we have truly loved being part of your neighborhood! While it is bittersweet to say goodbye to this space, this move allows us to consolidate all your "useful and beautiful" favorites into one central location. We are so excited to grow, be more intentional with our workshop creations, and offer even more unique, homemade items to bring joy into your home and life.

Come see us in Kinston this week to check out the booth one last time, and then join us for a fresh look in Greenville at the end of the month! ✨🏠

A Proud Milestone for Our Family Business! 📖✨

I am stepping out from behind the scenes to share an incredibly proud personal milestone: autographed paperback copies of my book, Leap of Faith, are officially available at our Shoppes at Copper Mill location in Greenville!

We love filling our booth with "useful and beautiful" staples for your home, and it feels incredibly special to add a novel to the shelves alongside our family's handmade woodwork and cozy sewn creations.

Originally published in 2019, Leap of Faith tells the story of a girl named Aria who leaves the bright lights of Sin City to come home to the eastern coast of South Carolina. It’s a journey about facing your past, finding your grounding, and navigating life with the help of some new and old friends.

Whether you are looking for a practical kitchen helper, a piece of garden art, or a great story to get lost in, we have you covered. Local neighbors can pick up an autographed paperback copy next time you are browsing the booth in Greenville, and for our wonderful friends cheering us on from afar, it is also available online on Amazon as a paperback or e-book, so you can read along from anywhere!

💬 Question for You:
When you find a book you love, do you prefer a physical paperback copy 📖, or do you love the convenience of an e-reader 📱? Let us know in the comments! 👇
