Our Story
Like all great ideas, Kathy’s started with a challenge – trying to find unique products for her paint studio and retail store in Lancaster, PA she owned with her mother for over 10 years.
Inspired by her desire for unique and creative items to fill her own shelves, Kathy took matters into her own hands, literally. She handmade the first ‘primitive candle box’ in 1997. Crafting the box by hand, taking care into each detail from the sanded edges to the type of ribbon tied on the wire handles, each was a work of passion.
Driven by her innate creativity and entrepreneurial spirit – the product that started it all was born.

Great gift for Homesick kid, Love the red heart over location & all the towns!I sent this MA state shadow box to my kid who moved out of state. Has been so homesick and loved this so much when it arrived. Said, “Mom that’s such a thoughtful gift”; this from the child who takes everything for granted and never says Thanks. Red heart in MA wasn’t placed/stuck on yet in pic, but did get it. What was so great was finding all the MA towns printed on the back panel behind the state cut out; didn’t even know about that when I ordered it! Can use Red Sharpie to circle the town too! Soooo cute, unique and such a great gift for those who’ve left their home state for another.

Absolutely fantastic!Absolutely perfect! Background has names of cities, the outline is spot on, and comes with a wooden heart that has a removable backing allowing the recipient to stick it on the state in the spot of their choosing. Couldn’t have asked for a better product to sit on my desk at work and remind me of home. Would make a great gift!

Made a memory for a lifetimeThe quality is great and you can customize it by marking your spot with the provided heart or use some other important picture or item.I made the included heart smaller and added a label+ on the back added a message thatReads “No matter where you are we are always under the same stars🌟 “

Super cute, great for a gallery wall, but mine was missing the red heartI bought this to add to a gallery wall of framed photos and keepsakes. Unfortunately, mine arrived without the little red heart. I thought perhaps it fell off during transport but it was no where to be found in the packaging. I ended up drawing one on with a red sharpie (the ink didn’t run, by the way) and was able to place it exactly where my son lives in the state. Otherwise, it is built well and looks like it will last a long time.

Fun state plaqueHubby is from Connecticut. We have all our states we’ve lived in plus our birth states as part of a wall decor. This one is small, but CT isn’t a particularly large state! Little heart to put on his birth place in CT.
