Hi, Hi!  Pod, as Pod, re-opens on Thursday, March 6th. But first, we're hosting a little Pop-Up opener on Saturday, March 1st from 11a-5p. 

Who? What? 

Manimal x Pod: We launch a small collaboration of poufs and camp stools featuring the amazing leather-patchwork style that Manimal ( Kristen Lombardi ) is known for. We'll be taking orders as these pieces will be entirely made-to-order. Samples will be on view at this event. Word has it that Kristen will also bring along some leather small-goods for sale that day. Yup, you'll be able to take those home with you! 

If you're new, Manimal is a small and careful line of leather goods, produced from start to finish in New England. Kristen is a tailor, teacher, and designer who has been exploring hand craft, color, and function for 20 years. This collaboration between friends, aims to bring aesthetic joy into your home. 

Knosen Antiques: You'll remember Knosen from our February pop-up here a few years ago. Knosen is an online antique shop based in the Boston area, with a focus on English and European pine furniture. The shop is a celebration of timeless pieces with beautiful histories and long lives ahead of them.

Amanda, of Knosen Antiques, will be featuring art, mirrors, stools, and other small pieces along with more contemporary home goods by Stoff Studios. The hand-screen printed lamp shades and cushions are super fun. You must see these in-person. 

DEGEN: DEGEN is the creation of Lindsay Degen, a Rhode Island based fiber artist, designer, and serious crafter. DEGEN incorporates a mix of theoretical rigor and artistic expression, redefining the landscape of knitting in fashion. In 2022, DEGEN started an online knitting community called KNIT.club to inspire, teach, and create community with like-minded makers.

At the pop-up, DEGEN will be featuring a selection of its hot-off-the-presses Spring RTW collection along with a bit of sample and sale goods. 

Of course we will pepper a few Pod-like things throughout the shop that day. We'll have a lot of London Borough of Jam on hand along with fresh-baked popovers that Michelle Mulford of Uncommon Feasts is so graciously providing--while they last. 

Whether you come by on March 1st or 6th, we're excited to see you. X, JB

Shopping. Fundraising. Join us December 7th & 8th! 

Many of you know the drill, but if you're new to Pod, WELCOME! This is something you don't want to miss. Our annual holiday event is especially important because we donate a portion of our weekend sales to Rosie's Place, a local organization whose mission is close to our hearts.

Rosie's Place was founded in 1974 as the first women's shelter in the United States. Located in Boston, their mission is to provide a safe and nurturing environment that helps poor and homeless women maintain their dignity, seek opportunity, and find security in their lives.
Today, in it's 50th year, Rosie's Place is a multi-service community center that offers women emergency shelter and meals, and so much more: a food pantry, ESOL classes, legal assistance, wellness care, one-on-one support, housing and job search services, and community outreach. Here women will find support, opportunity and the tools they need to make a new start. 
Rosie's Place relies SOLELY on the generous support of individuals, foundations, and corporations and DOES NOT accept any city, state, or federal funding. 

So what's going on besides making a dent in your gift lists?
You can count on fragrant paperwhites, potted up and just waiting to be gifted. Erin Heath of Forêt will be crafting her amazing wreaths to add warmth to your home. Offered in 16" and 22" sizes, you'll need to pre-order those. Whimsy Floral Studio will be providing us with lovely wraps with mixed seasonal greens--perfect for your weekend eventing. If anything, it's sure going to smell wonderful.

Do not forget the RAFFLE!! Anyone who makes a purchase at Pod during this weekend event is eligible.  We're so very grateful for the generous donations from: Cutty's, Bon, Covet & Lou, Hi-Rise Bread Co., Bagelsaurus, Field & Vine, June Bug, Stitch and Tickle, Sofra, Family Dinner, Gather Here, Cambridge Naturals, Breadboard Bakery,  We Thieves, Pod, Katherine Small Gallery, London Borough of Jam, and Joanne Rossman, It's likely this list will grow. 

At checkout, you'll be asked if you'd like to enter the raffle. It does NOT cost extra! We'll need your name, phone number and email--this is simply to be able to contact you if you win. We are not adding you to ANY lists or sharing your info. We promise.

It's a fun time. We help you out, you help us out, we all help Rosie's Place out. There's a lotta love around this event and we hope you will find a moment to participate. XO
