Happy October 1st 🧙‍♀️👻🎃 - I think October may be my favorite month of the year….we can still go to the beach, or head over the bridge to Salem which is basically Halloween 365 days of the year, or take a drive and see the beautiful New England foliage…you get the idea, October is pretty great 😊 . I have a handful of Halloween pillows in stock and ready to ship immediately and I just listed them on my Etsy page (link in bio). Have a great weekend and enjoy this beautiful Fall weather!

Couldn’t wait a moment longer - the house has been officially “Fall-ified” 👻🎃🍁 - our kitchen is still half torn up so I needed to make the other half look nice - so I will only look this direction for the next month 🤪. Problem solved 👏

Flashback Friday - where has 7 years gone?! 😱. Salty Cottage essentially launched through Etsy Wholesale, and although that platform no longer exists, I will be forever grateful for this opportunity that gave my business legs to walk on 🙏🏻. I have customers that I still work with that found me at that NY Now show, it lead me down the path to renting a storefront studio with @artbyalyssa that I now have grown to be my own space, and it has introduced me to countless amazing and talented people all along the way. I am so thankful for the adventure and stepping outside of my comfort zone, and i feel like when these memories pop-up on social media it’s the universe giving me a little nudge to say “it’s time to take some new risks” 😅. Cheers to the next 7 years 🥂#smallbusiness #wholesale #makingitwork #thesaltycottage #launch

Sometimes my designs work in reverse - I want to use a color so badly that I create a design that goes with it 😍. So I’m going to keep looking at these colors and wait for them to speak to me 😜 - I’ll let you know how it goes! #colorstory #ilovefabric #colorful #thesaltycottage #madeinmassachusetts #woolfelt #inspiration

First dry day in awhile, so we wasted no time getting comfy again out on the deck - yes the cushions were still a tad damp, but no regrets 😅🐶 #decktime #familytime #thesaltycottage

We try to bring the “special” to “special order” 😍. Our customer wanted a design for her recent grad to cap off her amazing college experience, and along with my amazing assistant, Kelly, we were able to make it happen 👏.

I was having so much fun using this font that I couldn’t decide on just one pillow to make…so I made 3 😃. Up on my Etsy page now, get them before they are gone - they may be the only 3 I ever make 😅🤷🏻‍♀️ #bestcoast #eastcoast #typography #newfont #aqua #coastaldecor #summer #interiordecor #softfashion #pillows

Another lake house bound pillow heading out - I really love the graphic simplicity of typography 👌. For my pillows that have text, I 1st create the design in Illustrator and play around with scale to make sure it fills up the pillow space correctly, then I cut my wool felt into sheets, laser cut the sheet, spray baste all of the letters, do a wee bit of math, and then lay everything out on my pillow front with a ruler and grid…oh yeah, and then stitch it all up and stuff it 😅. #handmade #makerlife #makersgonnamake #workwithyourhands #typography #letters #lakelife #gift #custom #maine
