3) Book Themed Lightweight Scarf
Wrap a book lover (maybe that’s you!) in a literary scarf bearing the words from a classic piece of literature. The square scarves are handcrafted in Oregon with screen-printed text that’s heat-set to help prevent fading. Each scarf beautifully celebrates a book or poem in soft, durable, and lightweight cotton jersey.

5) Honeycomb Fortune Locket
Slip some words of wisdom into this intricately patterned fortune locket. The brass and gold-dipped honeycomb design frames your note beautifully—where you and others can enjoy it. Place your own fortune inside or wear the one we’ve hand-selected; the clasp makes it easy to swap out. The sentiment behind them is reminiscent of the classic, heirloom-y locket you might inherit and slip an old photo into—except these necklaces encourage you to look into the future as much as the past.
