Annie’s Blue Ribbon General Store A Modern General Store where Fun and Function reign supreme
Guest Toothbrushes, $14
We were pretty psyched to find ourselves on the pages of June’s issue of Country Living. They picked our beautiful Guest toothbrushes as the perfect detail for your guest bath. We love them, too: they’re made from sustainable bamboo and bring beauty to an otherwise mundane object. Check out the latest issue of Country Living for even more great design tips and recipes!
We are thrilled that New York Magazine featured this cute Jam Jar Kit in this week’s mag as a Mother’s Day DIY present. Just pick some berries (or get them from the farmers market), can them (we’ve got lots of canning items too, including jars!), decorate and voila! Kit comes with stickers and paper jar covers with scalloped edges, plus a booklet with techniques and recipes, making it easy and fun to transform plain glass jars into pretty gifts. Or give this cute set to your mom and ask for a jar when she’s done bottling her favorite concoction! Jam Jar Kit- $14.95.
New York Magazine asked us what some of our FAVORITE new finds are for Spring and we immediately said, EARTH BLOCKS!!! These cool, lego-like blocks are made from all natural, organic materials- such as Tree Bark (as in the example above). Made from a composite of sawdust, bark, coffee bean skin, and green tea, these are a cool, green, and great-smelling alternative to plastic blocks. 50 blocks to a set. These will arrive April 6th, pre-order now… Earth Blocks Tree Bark, Earth Blocks Sawdust, Earth Blocks Coffee Bean, Earth Blocks Green Tea- $32 each.
Medicine Box, $42.50
Sometimes I stay up way too late stuck in an endless cycle of back-to-back episodes of House Hunters. Now I can get sucked into the HGTV Zone on the go with the all-new HGTV Magazine! And guess who’s in their inaugural issue! US!!! Our beautiful Medicine Box is featured in the “Bang For Your Buck” section highlighting affordable decorative accessories. Check out this great new magazine for fun decorating tips, real estate fantasies, and more. This month even includes an interview with Genevieve Gorder (our favorite) and her adorable daughter (dressed to the nines in her Snow White costume!).
