Caroline’s Cakes
Rooted in southern traditions and the joy of gathering around the table, Caroline’s Cakes is a true South Carolina treat. After serving her first, and now famous, seven layer caramel cake at her son’s christening in 1982, Caroline Ragsdale Reutter quickly became a household name not only in South Carolina, but across the country for her confectionary delights. This family business, now run by Caroline’s son Richard, is beloved by many (including us!!) not only for its delectable cakes and treats, but also for the traditions it has continued since Caroline began her baking journey almost 30 years ago. All of the cakes are shipped chilled straight to your door and can be frozen for up to 6 months until they are ready to be served! We can’t wait for our Besties to enjoy a batch of cake bites for themselves, and if you are in need of a sweet treat for an upcoming birthday or celebration, look no further than Caroline’s Cakes!
Erno Lazlo
“I owe 50% of my beauty to my mother, and the other 50% to Erno Laszlo” - Audrey Hepburn. When it comes to skincare, the world renowned brand, Erno Laszlo, is one of the best! Skin guru to the stars, Dr. Laszlo emphasized the importance of finding his patients’ inner glow, and his groundbreaking legacy has stood the test of time continues to live on through the clean beauty brand today. From Audrey Hepburn, to Marilyn Monroe, to Jackie O, Laszlo built a reputation with his star studded clientele that is admired and remembered to this day. We have absolutely fallen in love with all of the products in this best sellers kit, and we can’t wait for each of you to do the same! Check out some of our other favorite products below, and say hello to your new favorite skincare line!
Bangle & Babe
Creative Club member Ashley Seahorn started Bangle & Babe in 2017 and created the original Bangle Bracelet Key Ring as a solution to a problem so many of us have… having our hands full and keeping up with our keys! The thoughtful design of this silicone key ring is the perfect mix of style and functionality, and once you add it to your keys, you’ll wonder how you ever lived without it! We love how Ashley thought of even the smallest of details when working with her team in Corpus Christi, TX to design her product. From the array of bright and cheerful colors to choose from, to different metal options, to various bracelet styles, there is a bangle option for every person in your life! Check out all of our favorite pieces below, and snap a few as treats for the fellow busy bodies in your life!
Kerrie Hess Illustration
Australian born illustrator and lover of all things fashion and beauty, Kerrie Hess, is known for her whimsical watercolor paintings and designs. Hess’s work has been featured in the pages of Vogue, the cover of Harper’s Bazaar, and more, making her one of the most celebrated fashion artists in the industry! Kerrie has also illustrated commissioned pieces for some of the top brands in fashion, jewelry, and beauty, including Louis Vuitton, Cartier, Tiffany & Co, and Lancome. We are SO excited to feature Kerrie’s new book, Joy in the Little Things, in our upcoming Happy Mail box, in which the artist shares inspiration and art for readers to enjoy and find their own happiness and sources of creativity!

Rifle Paper Co
Rifle Paper Co has mastered the art of bold, colorful, and whimsical floral designs and has stolen the hearts of pattern lovers everywhere, including ours! Husband and wife team, Nathan and Anna Bond, founded their company almost 12 years ago with the goal of “bringing beauty to the everyday”. From playful printed puzzles, to irresistible floral patterned stationery, to accessories that would put a smile on any gal’s face, Rifle Paper is one of our very favorite shops for happy treats that bring us joy, and we know we will be sipping our morning coffee out of this beautiful, floral mug and accessorizing our summer outfits with this colorful knotted headband all season long!

Pamela Munson
With Spring finally here and Summer right around the corner, rattan accessories are our favorite go-to’s during these beautiful, warm weather months! And when it comes to finding that perfect straw bag, look no further than to Pamela Munson, who has mastered the art of timeless basketweave pieces! Inspired by the time spent in tropical places as a child on her family boat, Pamela beautifully captures these memories in each of her thoughtfully designed handbags and accessories. We absolutely adored chatting with Pamela during our last Creative Club event, and now we are ecstatic to share her wonderful collection with each of you!
