Ok soooo I wanted to share a little behind the scenes with y’all!! Not only do we turn your memories into keepsakes, ummm, I grow my own herbs! Like, peppermint, LOTS of it! Why? Because I LOVE it in my teas and I just happened to run out of it last night. So what a better time to go harvest it for the first time of the season than this morning, in my PJs, and before brushing my hair, or putting on any kind of make-up! Herb harvesting is like a whole “natural vibe” y’all and well, I needed to get it done before I got distracted and busy with everyone’s orders. Which I LOVE to do too! Sooooo whatcha think? Do I need to add dried herbs to our store?

We love a good “thinking outside of the box” request! And Allie certainly had us doing that with her recent order. She loved our raised flower boxes…. Buuuut she wanted a cow. 🐄 .. and let’s personalize it! This was a team effort for Mr. Mahin and me. This one measures 36” wide by 26” tall ..
so yes!! Can we make a cow flower planter box??!? YES, yes we can!

To order yours, just send me a PM or comment here and I’ll floor-up with ya .

Perfect keepsake for porches, patios and even smaller spaces like balconies!
