Born out of the love of the rustic outdoors, inspired sisters Elizabeth Stafford White and Jacquelyn Stafford Buckner created the whimsical brand Twine & Twig in 2013. We first stumbled up them at Bardot Boutique, where owner Dana bought the line and then quickly sold of of it. Luckily all stocked up now, Dana loves that the pieces are created with a neutral color palette in mind which mixes well with her most casual to her most colorful items. Twine & Twig offers quality craftsmanship and incredible attention to detail. Each piece is one of a kind, handcrafted and designed by the two sisters.
