As craftspeople, we're inherently nostalgic, as making things by hand is about slowing down and appreciated the beauty in traditional, natural materials. We're also big gardeners, and are sentimental about reconnecting with nature and appreciating the small pleasures in life. This holiday shop our selection of ornaments and gifts that embrace the simple life and the beauty of the natural world.
September is a big month for new babies - in fact it's the most common birthday month! We've been busy all month engraving baby cups and spoons, so we didn't really need to look it up, but it's an established fact. Our pewter baby gifts are handmade right here in Rhode Island, designed for those one-of-a-kind babies and kids ( and grand kids). With our unique personalized designs you can give a gift that's perfect just for them, creating a keepsake that they'll always treasure.
Also, be sure to shop our selection of handmade wood blocks for a gift that's colorful, smart, and made in the USA.
As many of you know, Jim & Sandra were a couple of jewelers who started Beehive Handmade to fulfill the need for thoughtful and beautiful everyday household objects. But, during the quiet, near-to-home days of the recent pandemic, Sandra looked to her Rhode Island home for new, creative inspiration.
As she found inspiration in the stories of the past and the lovely coastline, cities, and towns nearby she began to dream up a jewelry collection. One that would capture the natural beauty and seafaring traditions she held so dear about the New England Coast.
Sailors Valentine is a collection of recycled brass jewelry inspired by the history and landscape of coastal New England. From the rugged texture of an old anchor chain to the discovery of a tiny shell, each piece of jewelry is lovingly inspired by elements of the sea and the history of our coastal home.
