CFM is one of our fave local woman-owned-and-operated businesses. They are a storefront offering handmade watercolors and a line of letterpress watercolor papergoods all made in-house, alongside a curated selection of creative supplies. In 2019, we started to talk about collaborating on a special Holiday product, to come up with something that represents all that we care about: sustainability, creativity, process, and COLOR.

We were sitting on a fair amount of patterned fabric backstock that we didn't want to go to waste, and wondered if we could come up with something to make from it. I think it was actually all of us who had the idea of a brush roll, and we immediately got so excited about this possibility! For Holiday 2019, CFM developed a custom watercolor palette to match each of our brush rolls and we included this palette along with everything one needs to get started with water coloring, in the brush roll. How special, right?!

The brush rolls were a rip-roaring success so we've brought them back! This time sans supplies so you can fill them with whatever tools you've got.

We can't wait to see how you pack your rolls and the work you make with them.

The holidays in my family weren't like the ones you see in the movies. We didn't rush toward our presents in a frenzy of flying arms and frantic fingers, shreds of paper and tape flying across the room. No, in my family we'd surgically unwrap our presents, delicately peeling the tape and carefully re-folding the paper for next year's holidays in an effort to reduce waste. It was a chore, but it was tradition.

In keeping with that same waste reduction ethos, we're pleased to introduce these reusable Gravel & Gold Gift Bags‚ no peeling tape or folding paper required. When the festivities are over and the gifts have been exchanged, these bags can be put away until next year or reused to hold shoes, jewelry, toiletries, cat toys, etc.

Made from leftover fabrics from our apparel productions, these festive gift sacks come in 3 sizes and feature a ribbon drawstring.
