Handmade

We have gorgeously colorful “Indian paint pots” now available by the pound.
Native Americans used the ochre in these naturally occurring rocks for red and yellow pigments, hence the common name of Indian paint pots.
Properly known as concretions, these odd rocks are one of my favorites…who doesn’t love a rock that can produce paint*? :D

We have 3 size options available:
1lb paint pots
3lb paint pots
5lb paint pots
(For larger amounts, please contact the shop for availability)

Most shards are roughly 3”-5” in size (and up!), and your order will contain a variety of colorful shards that look very much like the ones pictured above. The rocks, when dry, feature a clay-like, dusty surface, and when wet, the color is magnified.

*If interested in powdered raw ochre for making pigments and dyes, please contact the shop for availability. I am working to upload the video to Etsy, but if you check out our Instagram, we have posted a quick demo of the pigments in use*

Sustainably harvested and cultivated on our family-owned property in Arkansas, our live, fresh mosses, lichens and bark are all natural and are packaged with the utmost care to ensure that your purchase arrives in perfect condition.

Not at all! Moss loves the cold, even grows happily under snow…and trust me, shipping during the winter won’t bother it a bit. :)

“Mosses grow in many different environments, from cold snowy mountains to baking hot deserts. Different species have adapted to survive in extreme conditions. Studies have shown that the lowest temperature they can photosynthesise (turn energy from sunlight into food) is around -15ºC and the highest is around 40ºC. In hot environments like prairies or deserts, one that mosses tolerate heat is by becoming dormant (dried out). Some mosses have even been known to survive temperature highs of 100ºC and lows of -272ºC. That's a resilient little plant right there!”
