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.

Newspaper's faded tones lend these projects vintage appeal. This hat is brightened by a glittery rosette, a blue band trimmed with pinking shears, and a simple name banner in a bold typeface.


GLUE TIP: When working with crepe paper, use a glue stick or transfer tape. Liquid glue can cause colors to run.

Tub Scrub

via Martha Stewart {Body+Soul}

Here’S a nontoxic but effective way to clean your tub:  Add one teaspoon of liquid soap and several drops of an antibacterial essential (such as tea tree, eucalyptus, rosemary or peppermint) to one cup of baking soda.  Add just enough water to form a paste, and use it with a sponge or brush to scour bathtub surfaces.
