Why Pineapple Hill?

The pineapple has been a symbol of hospitality since the days of the early American colonies. According to legend, the symbol began with the sea captains of New England who would spear a pineapple on a fence post outside their home to let the community know of their safe return home and to invite friends to visit and share their hospitality.

Likewise, we hope Pineapple Hill Designs boutique will make you feel “Welcome”! We know how important it is to find something special for that certain someone or just the right accessory to complete a room. We believe everyday is a day to celebrate, and we have just the thing to help you create something special out of the ordinary.

Back to School

We've gotcha covered!
From Martha Stewart Kids:
Basic Cover How-ToBegin with a piece of paper big enough to wrap around the closed book, adding at least two inches on all sides.

1. Place the book in the center of the paper and fold the paper against the top and bottom edges of the book to make creases. Remove the book and fold the paper down neatly along these creased lines, keeping folds smooth and even.2. Place the closed book on the folded paper, 2 inches away from the right side; wrap the long side of the paper around the front cover of the book and crease along the edge of the front cover. (It's important to do this with the book closed, or the cover will be too tight.)3. Remove, fold crisply, then open the book and slide the front cover into the created sleeve. Close the book and crease the other end of the paper against its back cover. Fold down, then open the back cover and slide it into the created sleeve.
