The question of the day: Are you ready for Warm and Cozy? Bonfires, fuzzy blankets...Boots with the fur! And don't forget the Cider. Yum! You could even get super exciting and visit a pumpkin patch or gather gourds from a local farm stand (we did, and it was grand!). Whatever you do make sure the colorful outdoors is involved! The beginning of the busy season is here, too. Can you believe we have been in our new space for nearly a year? How time flies! As we have been thinking about the upcoming celebratory season we thought it would be nice to invite you to join us on occasion to shop our sweet Store. Yep, that's right! Come hang out with us!

"Be Kind Poynette" Signs & Static Clings
Our ReTwist-T Teammate Anne, of Art by Design, has Be Kind packages available! Each package includes a double sided yard sign and 2 static cling stickers in Portage/Poynette school colors. ALSO our Teammate Jessica, of Country Meadow Market Candles, is collaborating with Anne to create candles specially labeled to encourage the Be Kind Movement. AND a percentage of proceeds goes directly to the Poynette Hope Squad, a student group at the middle and high school who embrace the responsibility of helping students stay connected, openly discussing mental health and what it looks like to take care of yourself, and offering to find resources for their friends who might be having a difficult time. OUR kids will be directly impacted by your kindness. Spread the word - ORDER TODAY!

New Makers at ReTwist-T!
Erin, of SweetPea Creations, graduated from UW-Stevens Point with a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree. Her artistic emphasis, 3D design, has taken the form of beautiful beaded works using the smallest of beads. She is now excited to join the ReTwist-T Team and embark on a new entrepreneurial adventure to share her works with everyone!
Erin joins us from the Sauk Prairie Area.
At the root of Wisconsin Timberworks runs a deep passion for old growth wood and the great American barn. Visionary craftsmen, Bill and Stew, reclaim the history and heritage of this rustic resource and create custom harvest tables, mantels, doors, accent beams, counters, bar tops and more! Their goal is to pass on the history and craftsmanship of days gone by…one board and one beam at a time. Stop by soon to chat with us about what they can create for you! The Wisconsin Timberworks team join us from the Sauk Prairie Area.
