Bread and butter pickles are a traditional staple of the pickling world, bringing a harmonious balance of sweetness and tanginess to the plate. That's why we brought back the classic taste of bread and butter pickles to our Pickling Pouch! With their crisp texture and irresistible flavor, pickles made using the Granny's Bread & Butter Pickling Pouch add a burst of excitement to any dish. Whether you're enjoying them on a juicy burger, pairing them with a charcuterie board, or savoring them straight from the pouch, the distinct taste will surely leave you craving more.

Once you have used the pouch up to two times you can use the brine as a marinade for chicken, fish, beef or pork. You can also strain the brine and use the leftover spices to mix with sour cream or ranch dressing for a unique veggie or chip dip!

2 ounce resealable pouch

Handcrafted in Fraser, Michigan

Beverly Patterson started making pickles for her husband several years ago. Lou, (her husband), was given a low-sodium diet by his doctor. Well, Lou loved his pickles and Beverly couldn't see him suffer without the one thing he enjoyed the most; pickles. After several years of making pickles and giving them to friends and family everyone encouraged Beverly to share her passion with the rest of the world. Great Lakes Pickling Company was born from this passion. As Beverly and Lou were heading down the pickle aisle of their local grocery store Lou stopped at the very long display of pickles. When Beverly asked why, Lou replied, "You have to look here and see what is missing and make that." With those words, Beverly has let her imagination run wild, giving us the several unique varieties that we offer.

Playful rhymes and whimsical art celebrate the many faces of the vulva in this mesmerising coloring book. Some of the rhymes uplift this oft-misunderstood body part: My Vag is a martini / sometimes dry, sometimes dirty / but always delightful & a little bit flirty. And others keep it wonderfully real: Slobbering on a bush / my vag is a giraffe / majestic in person / but goofy in photograph. These pages provide a wonderful antidote to body shame. Color your heart out as you marvel at the versatility, prowess, and personality of the vagina. For your coloring pleasure, pages are one-sided and perforated.

Embroider Me Wicked was built through the pandemic. I fell into embroidery and quickly became very passionate about it, and I noticed a need in the market for easy to use Embroidery designs. I started creating and using my own, and then decided that I can actually sell full packs of Stick & Stitch designs as well as Embroidery kits. So at the beginning of this year, that is exactly what I started doing and I love every second of it!

Make your own folded pen with this kit. Folded pens are simple writing tools that are easy to make, and surprisingly expressive and lively. Each one is different, and you can experiment with shape, flexibility and ink capacity as you learn how the nibs work. You can use a folded pen for calligraphy, drawing, or mark-making. 

The kit contains full instructions, along with a pencil, two small pieces of brass sheet, extrafine grit sandpaper, and walnut ink crystals. 

You need to provide duct tape (or heatshrink tubing) and a pair of sharp scissors.

You’ll cut the brass into a shape, attach it to the dowel, and cut/shape it into a nib. Then you’ll have your own homemade pen. Dip it in ink and start making some marks. There’s an extra piece of brass, as backup, or to make a second pen. 

Please note that the photo shows more objects than are included in the kit. The kit does not contain any finished pens. And the exact appearance of the kit may vary from the photos here, as we occasionally update the materials.

The creation of Marvling Bros is a story that began in 2010 with two mums at the school gates of a sleepy surburban primary school in Essex… In 2010 the head mistress of the school held a competition for the pupils. The task seemed straightforward and simple enough: How much can you fit in a matchbox? Hayley’s seven-year-old son was not enthused by idea, but Hayley entered for him and came up with all sorts of objects that not only fitted in the matchbox but fulfilled a concept too. For example, a grain of rice and a coriander seed which she labelled ‘curry takeaway’, and a picture of the Mona Lisa and Van Gogh’s Sunflowers became a miniature art gallery. She did not win the competition, and most people thought it was mad, but one other person at the school totally got it - Emma. Two years later, Emma, inspired by the matchboxes, (and having just offloaded her youngest child at school) thought the concept could be the basis for a business and for nine months she and Hayley beavered away researching products, developing ideas and learning how to run an e-commerce company. They launched in July 2013 with a website and 12 different product designs. In the first week they sold exactly ten matchboxes, half of those to people they knew. Not the big hit they were hoping for. However, by their first Christmas, they were flying out of the door. In the last eight years the business has gone from strength to strength, while keeping the company ethos - to provide inspiration!

Use this woven ribbon for gift wrapping, sewing, craft and decor projects. Naturally frayed edge linen looks great on table settings and floral arrangements.

Clap Clap is a LA based stationery brand created by illustrator Mimi Kim. Mimi originally studied graphic design in Korea and worked at an advertising firm when she started a personal project: a cooking-themed calendar to give to her family and friends. The success of the calendar inspired Mimi to pursue her illustration work full time and in 2013, Clap Clap was born in the pursuit to send out good vibes and cheers to friends and loved ones like a rousing applause delivered to their mailbox.

The product line has since expanded to include whimsical greeting cards, notebooks, planners, wrapping paper and the creation of scented cards.

Inspired by natural and floral scents, Mimi worked closely with specialists at perfumeries in South Korea to turn this concept into a reality. In April 2015, Clap Clap released its first Botanical Scented Collection, which continues to grow with the purpose of providing an enhanced sensorial experience of sharing stories and sentiments through letter writing.

It is our hope to create products that remind us of nature’s beauty the way we treasured it when we were young, collecting pretty things to hold on to. We hope you enjoy and treasure our cards in the same way.

With a nod to the 'vaporwave' aesthetic, the chill vibe of our new 'Perfectly Imperfect' label encapsulates the sentiment perfectly (if not perfectly imperfectly ☺️).

Paperback Book

Transform your wardrobe with this step-by-step guide to sewing pockets into your favorite clothes. With simple instructions and line drawings, this book teaches six basic pockets, with suggested alterations to customize each pocket to your wardrobe needs, while learning the history of what pockets looked like and why they remain a political tool today. All the projects are designed for beginner sewists, and most can be made by hand, with no specialty tools or machine required.

For every pair of pants with the pockets sewn shut, for every skirt with nowhere to put your hands, for every jacket missing a place to put your cash, there is one dress with pockets big enough to hold your entire world. Finding that one feels like finding a lucky clover among the grass. But clothes with pockets should not be so rare. There are reasons why (spoiler alert: it’s about patriarchy and capitalism!), and this book will teach you some of the history of fashion and politics, but more importantly, this book will teach you how to fix the problem yourself. With the skills in this book, you can make your old clothes useful again. This book is for sewists who don’t always have the time and energy to make a whole garment, and it’s also for those beginners who have never used a needle and thread. This book is for people who aren’t satisfied with clothes as they are and want to make a change. Most of all, this book is for everyone, because everyone deserves pockets.

Paper marbling is an ancient method of aqueous surface design which can produce very interesting patterns. Oil-based colors are floated in a shallow marbling tray and designs are created with a wooden sticks and hand tools, using a kind of painting technique. Each sheet is then carefully lowered into this tray and the pattern transfers on to the paper. The sheets are hung up to dry naturally. Each and every sheet is individually hand-marbled by skilled artisans, making them truly unique. They are not screen printed or digitally mass-produced.

This intricate design features a groovy mix of bright aqua blue, hot pink, and mellow yellow.

This piece of modernist artwork come from an old Hungarian Matchbook advertisement that read "Cooperative shoe salons, The country is all about it."
