Slow Is Lasting - Slow Fashion Movement by The Valente

We are so very please to have been included in The Valente's Slow Fashion Movement!

Taken Directly from their website, they describe Slow Fashion ..."Our economy is running on a fast fashion treadmill. Goods are being produced at a rapid rate, sold for as much as a cup of coffee, and disposed of quickly and carelessly. Here at The Valente we know we can do better, not only for ourselves, but for the consumer, the industry's workers, and the environment. Slow Fashion products are created in an ethically sound way and with quality materials. The artisans behind this movement put time and thought into the construction and design of their products, letting us assure you that your purchases won't be unutilized with the tags still attached. Slow Fashion items are investments that impact not only your wardrobe, but the world around you."

The Velente provides a transparent buying experience, letting you know exactly what you are buying, what it is made of, who made it- and also where it was made. 
The Valente boasts all American Made products, supporting small designers right here in the U.S.

We have been working with The Valente for months in order to bring you our products, as well as products made by other amazing artists. 

Please, please, please go support our partners over at www.thevalente.com !!

Formally Introducing: Country Cotton

Our NEW fragrance, Country Cotton, has been around for a few weeks. It's about time I formally introduced it to you all!
We are extremely excited about this fragrance, mostly because it is our favorite by far! We initially were not going to include this fragrance in our final product line, until a customer threatened me, saying that I NEEDED to. That was all the push I need. So, here it is.

"This is our cleanest, most refreshing fragrance; A scent that evokes thoughts of open windows, clotheslines, and green pastures. Cotton is known for being soft, flexible, and comfortable. We did our best to accentuate these features in our Country Cotton line of products. Our signature Country Cotton fragrance is versatile- adds the perfect touch for a relaxing shower, and our Luxe Soy Candle perfectly fills your home with the comforts of cotton." 











Enjoy!

Joining the Fair Goods Family

We are so pleased to have joined Fair Goods, over at www.fairgoods.com. The staff is wonderful, and extremely helpful! We couldn't have asked for a more welcoming community.

What Fair Goods is all about:
"Our favorite, most-loved items are often the ones with a story behind them. But really, every product has a story. Someone had an idea and it evolved into a finished, lovely thing. That's what Fairgoods is about: putting the maker at the forefront. And documenting the process of how things are made, from an idea in a sketchbook to the finished product. It’s about letting you into the process, into the work itself — and celebrating it.
We sell a curated selection of accessories, housewares, apparel, and decor, as well as digital goods like type. Some of our products are things we’ve created with makers, some are things we’ve made ourselves, and some of them are existing products we love."
You can visit our Maker Profile here! And while you are there, check out some of the other awesome items they have available!
