October Cottage Box: Apple Orchard (One-Time Purchase, October Box Only

Cozy autumn comforts, curated with care.

Fall is my absolute favorite season, and this box is everything I love about it — warm mugs, the smell of cinnamon and apples in the oven, and little handmade touches around the house. I put this box together the way I'd pack one for a friend, and I hope opening it feels like a deep breath of crisp October air.

Here's what's tucked inside:

• Hand-decorated 12 oz stoneware mug — I apply every apple harvest design by hand, so each one is a little bit unique (hand-wash only, please!)
• Harvest Apple Muffin Mix — my own recipe with real freeze-dried apples and a brown sugar crumble topping. Just add water, makes 6 muffins
• Loveless Cafe Apple Butter — a Tennessee treasure, perfect on a warm muffin
• DIY Apple Ornament Craft Kit — everything you need to decoupage two wooden apple ornaments, with step-by-step instructions
• A box of tea for slow mornings
• A mug mat to protect your table
• An apron for your baking days
• A sweet treat and a little decorative surprise

A few things to know: this box is limited to 12, and once they're gone, they're gone. The muffin mix contains wheat and milk. Your mug was decorated by hand — a gentle hand wash will keep it beautiful for years.

Thank you for letting me share my favorite season with you. I packed every box myself, with love.
