August Moon was borne from my nostalgia for summers weaving through country-side neighborhoods and small-town shops;
The kinds that are full of heart- cozy, warm, thoughtful.  The kinds that feel like a little haven of products that are not run-of-the-mill. 

Crafted in small batches by small businesses, designed and handmade by artists, and makers. Objects and garments that embody the creative process- from brain-storm to form.

August Moon is a place where you can trust for items that imbue “quality over quantity,” for a customer who values sentiment, touch and feel. Who gets a thrill when presenting someone with that perfect gift. Who recognizes a hand-knit garment by a grandparent, or a finger-painted masterpiece from childhood as the true rare treasures in life.

Our shop contains brands, objects, garments and gifts that are juicily creative and carefully chosen. I hope to bring color, creativity, honesty, generosity, nostalgia and humor in all that we do- and at a time where we need it most.

I hope our shop reflects the joy and wonder of cool-summer-night-moments. Barefoot-in-the-grass, family-togetherness-moments. The twinkling of an impossibly vast  expanse of stars, lit up by a beautiful August Moon.
