Thanksgiving

Our Thanksgiving Kits will soon be available in the store! Here is a sneak peak at what you will be seeing on the shelves of the Ivy Cottage! Table Top Turkey is available for Pre Order for $35! 

                           By the way, we are so Thankful for amazing customers and friends like you!!! 
I was working in the lab late one night 
When my eyes beheld an eerie sight 
For my monster from his slab began to rise 
And suddenly to my surprise 


He did the mash 
He did the monster mash 
The monster mash 
It was a graveyard smash 
He did the mash 
It caught on in a flash 
He did the mash 
He did the monster mash 


Every single time I look at our new Frankie Design by Simply Kelly, this song pops into my head! We saw him and knew he needed to be made into a wood kit and become part of our Monster family!! Isn't he just the cutest!?! He's in stock and ready to come home with you! It's going to be a bash making him up!! $18.95

Customers Kits!

We just have to brag about how stinking cute this turned out! We love to see the hard work our customers put into their kits! This turned out so darling Lisa!!!

I love Utah



Sometimes I wonder what it must have felt like to pack up your entire family and travel far away while battling weather, illnesses, and other causes of trepidation to find a land of freedom to live our beliefs. Our ancestors made a scary journey and with out them we couldn't have the things and faith we have now. I'm so grateful that we have this wonderful State! 
So much diversity and people from all over the world who have made a home around these beautiful mountains! Utah is a place for everyone! I must say I completely agree with B.Y. when he said, "This is the right place."

THIS IS THE PLACE!


We truly love this beautiful State we live in! What's not to love? It's breathtaking and has so much wonderful history! And to celebrate this incredible land we have made some kits to show off our Utah pride! These are hand cut and are absolutely one of a kind! You will not find any kits like these anywhere else! We are so proud of this design! I have had customers tell me this is perfect for their homes all year around! That has tickled us so much! We really believe that it's important to love this great state and show pride for where you live! The fabulous thing about this kit is that you can interpret what the state means to you! What are YOUR favorite things about living here? What makes you proud to be a Utahn? These are all things that you can put into making your kit! I can't wait to see pictures of your finished kits! Get on Facebook and send us your pictures!
Check back soon to see some more Utah and pioneer kits! 

Thanks so much!
