The Magic of October: Our First Holiday Sale is Here!
October 1st – 31st
Well, would you look at thatโOctober has arrived, and you know what that means around here? It’s time for our very first holiday sale of the season, and honestly, we’re as excited as kids on Christmas morning.
Rex spent the better part of September putting the finishing touches on some truly special pieces, and I’ve been busy dreaming up combinations that we think you’re going to absolutely love. There’s something magical about this time of yearโmaybe it’s the way the light changes, or how we all start thinking about gathering around tables with the people we care about most.
What We’ve Been Up To
This month, we’re doing something a little different. Instead of just offering individual pieces (though we still love those too!), we’ve curated some bundles and gift baskets that tell complete stories. Think of them as ready-made moments of joyโperfect for treating yourself or for that person who seems to have everything but would treasure something truly one-of-a-kind.
Here’s what’s caught our hearts this season:
Themed Journal & Pen Bundle – $35
Sometimes the simplest combinations are the most perfect. We’ve paired our Comfort Slimline Pen in Fancy Gun Metal & Desert Hybrid ($32 on its own) with a beautiful Southwestern journal ($10) that Rex hand-selected to complement the pen’s warm tones. There’s something deeply satisfying about writing with a pen that feels substantial in your hand while capturing thoughts in a journal that feels like the Southwest itself.
Can’t resist creating your own theme? Choose any pen from our collection and find a journal to matchโwe love seeing the combinations you dream up.
Bread & Butter Bundle – $60
This one makes Rex particularly proud. Our Hand Carved Walnut Bread Knife ($25) and Walnut Butter Scraper ($45) were practically made for each other. The walnut grain flows like it was meant to be, and together they transform any bread-and-butter moment into something special.
Pro tip from our kitchen: Try them with homemade lavender-lemon sweet bread and lavender-honey butter. Trust us on this one.
Have Yourself a Rustic Little Christmas Basket – $125
Rex’s laser work has been getting some serious attention lately, and this basket shows why. Twenty-nine separate palo verde cookies, each with its own depth and character, complete with eyelets and multi-colored hooks ready to grace your holiday celebrations. It’s rustic Christmas magic, pure and simple.
Getting Witchy With It Basket – $275 (complete) or $250 (just our pieces)
Dawn’s been experimenting with new resin colors, and this Lightning Struck Cherry Mortar & Pestle with Forest Green & Moss resin inlay ($245) is the kind of piece that makes people stop mid-conversation. We’ve paired it with our Green & Gold Hybrid Fancy Gold Slimline Pen ($32), a Cherry Herb Stripper ($20), Vintage Style Journal ($15), plus specialty tea blend ($10) and forest blend incense ($10) to complete the experience.
The Duotone Kitchen Basket – $350 (complete) or $320 (just our pieces)
This is the basket that makes Rex’s eyes light up. The Walnut & Maple Checkerboard End Grain Cutting Board ($125) anchors a collection that includes matching salt and pepper shakers ($80), a French rolling pin ($75), butter scraper ($45), bread knife ($25), honey dipper ($25), plus kitchen towels, hot pads ($15), recipe book ($10), and honey ($10). It’s a complete kitchen story waiting to unfold.
Celebration Basket – $490 (complete) or $420 (just our pieces)
Made with gorgeous Padauk wood (though any wood can be custom ordered), this collection was designed with weddings in mind, but it’s perfect for engagements, anniversaries, or any moment worth celebrating. Champagne glasses ($165), cake serving set ($156), desk pen and holder ($70), wine caddy ($63), matching taper holders ($50), guest book ($20), and taper candles ($5) create a celebration that’ll be remembered long after the last toast.
Rex’s recommendation: Add a bottle of Veuve Clicquot Champagne Yellow Label Brutโit’s one of the top champagnes under $100 and pairs beautifully with these pieces.
A Little Something Extra
Here’s what we love most about these bundles: they’re not just collections of beautiful things (though they certainly are that). They’re invitationsโto slow down, to savor moments, to create memories around your table, at your desk, in your kitchen. Every piece carries the story of the wood it came from, Rex’s four decades of craftsmanship, and now, hopefully, your own stories yet to be made.
As always, shipping is included in our pricing because we believe beautiful things shouldn’t come with surprise costs at the end.
Until We Meet Again
Whether you’re treating yourself to something special this October or getting an early start on gift-giving, we’re honored to be part of your story. Every order helps us keep doing what we love mostโturning reclaimed wood into treasures that’ll outlast us all.
Thanks for being part of our extended family. We love sharing this journey with you.
Rex & Dawn
