Easter Shopping Guide

For us Easter is the official start of Spring. Break out the color clothes and get festive with your hostess gifts. We've put together a little shopping guide for the weekend. Hop on in for more ideas!

Instead of one of those plastic baskets, opt for a locally made pouch to fill that she can re-use as a make-up bag. And how perfect is this bunny one?

Add our DIY Nail Polish Kit to your Easter gift. What could be more fun than a lazy afternoon of creating your own custom nail polish colors with your kiddos!

For brunch we're dreaming of wearing this dress with our favorite wedges. 

Throw on our easy to wear Navy Cross Hatch Kimono so you can play games and search for eggs in comfort with the little ones. 

Add our favorite gloss and you are set for an effortless weekend!

Don't forget a hostess gift! We love this grown up gift "basket" full of everything for the foodie in your life (including Easter chocolate)!

Image Transfer to Wood Workshop: Holiday Edition

Join us for our special Holiday Image Transfer to Wood Workshop on Thursday December 8th, 2016 at 7p. 

Our instructor, Chelsea has made a business of transferring her photos on to wood with her company Cuppa Fog for the past 4 1/2 years. We carry her beautiful San Francisco themed pieces in the shop. For this workshop she will  share her secret tips and tricks!

In this class you will use your own photos to make 6 mini wood transfers (2.5 x 3 inches) that are perfect to give as gifts for the holidays or turn into ornaments for your tree.  You can use the same image multiple times (perfect for gift giving to Mom, Grandma, friends, etc) or up to 6 different ones to keep all for yourself...the choice is yours!*

Chelsea each teach you: Wood preparation, image transfer application, removal of paper, distressed-finish techniques, sealant method, and how to apply hardware on the back of your new art. You will complete 3 pieces in class and have 3 to finish at home.

This two hour class also includes wine and snacks and a discount on merchandise in the store that night. No experience needed- all levels welcome!

Purchase your space now!

Silversheep x gather Jewelry Collaboration

We've always been fans of Sylvia of Silver Sheep's minimalist, thoughtfully crafted pieces so we knew she was just the person to partner with to create a special limited collection. Together we have designed a ring, ear climber, and necklace inspired by our gather logo. Here is a sneak peak from process. Sylvia handmade each one of these guys, they will be plated in gold vermeil and turned into wearable art. We can't wait for you to see the final product! Small Business Saturday (11/26/17) we will also be hosting a special pop up to celebrate the release of our jewelry collaboration. Jeweler, Sylvia will be coming in from Seattle to join and and she will also be bringing more pieces from her collection for you to peruse for gift giving. This is a wonderful opportunity to meet one of our favorite artists, learn about her process, and shop her jewelry.  Pop up hours are from 12-3p.
