Our most recent custom project, which may be our favorite to date, has just launched. Each vessel is hand-thrown in the wheel in our studio for Luminology, an exciting new handmade candle company based in the midwest. You can purchase the candles, which feature a gorgeous wood wick that crackles when lit,  from their website in ten lovely scents. We’re doubly excited to be working on a joint venture for the holidays. More on that in the months to come. Congrats, Angela, on a beautiful new product.  We’re so pleased to be a part of it.

(and on it’s way in October — fantastic paper goods from Seoul-based company O-Check Design Graphics, Japanese glassware and more).

…but hope to one day afford a winged beast.

Our new fall/winter collection is now available for purchase. Click over to the shop section for new modern additions to our tabletop, outdoor living and home decor collections, along with our first holiday items.

We’d like to welcome one of our favorite stores to our retailers list, Flora Grubb. We’ve been tempted to move to the bay area on more than one occasion just so they can be our local garden shop. If you live nearby and have not stopped in, we encourage you to do so, as it’s a real treat. And not just because you will be able to find Pigeon Toe products there beginning this week!

There are many shops coming on board in the next month –stay tuned for more stores in Australia and New York, and our firsts in Alabama and Massachusetts.

We’re pleased to be adding these charming wall decals by artist Shanna Murray to the shop. They are available for preorder here, and will be arriving in our store for in-person inspection in about a week.

In honor of our upcoming patriotic holiday, we’re discounting EVERYTHING in our shop 20% off for one day only – this Sunday, July 4. Discount is valid in our store (we’ll be open our regular hours – 11-6) or in our e-shop. Discount does not apply to sale merchandise or custom orders. Thank you for supporting a 100% made-in-the-USA small business. We wish you  a relaxing and safe holiday with friends.
