Welcome! And a little introduction...

Welcome! If you've made it this far, then you probably know a little about us already, but we feel like an introduction is always nice! Milk, Thread, and Honey sells uniquely designed pretend-play notepads that turn everyday scribbles into grand adventures - encouraging screen-free imagination, social play, and big-kid confidence. Designed by moms for kids! (And of course, tested by my very own kids!) While Milk, Thread, and Honey isn't brand new, this website is - we've been selling on Etsy since 2014, and are so proud to finally have our own space to connect with our customers on a deeper level.

As a stay-at-home mom with a degree in art and design, I spent my days balancing motherhood with my passion for creating. In the quiet moments between school runs and bedtime stories, I carefully designed unique goods and curated vintage glass treasures for my Etsy shop. As my children grew, so did my business and passion for creating. At Milk Thread and Honey, we always take pride in providing exceptional customer service, thoughtfully packaging each order, and responding to messages with warmth and care. And as our business grows, so does our confidence, proving that artistry, entrepreneurship, and genuine connections can thrive side by side.

We are Midwest-made and kid-approved! All of our products are the highest quality and made here in the USA. As parents, we are passionate about creating products that inspire creative-thinking, problem-solving and expand our kids' developing brains. We understand the struggle to get the kids off screens, while still giving them something fun and engaging, thought-provoking, all while developing their social skills in the process.  As a child, I spent my days making pretend checks, creating imaginary restaurant menus and checks, and making lists upon lists - this is what inspired my own journey. I still believe that every scribble can spark a story and every doodle can start an adventure - Stick around for creative ideas, new notepad launches, and plenty of pretend play inspiration.

We're so glad you're here at Milk Thread and Honey, where imagination is always in season. Here's to the notes, doodles and stories yet to be written - we can't wait to share the wonder of pretend play with you!
