Christmas Cove Designs

She was living in Christmas Cove, Mai ne--a saltwater fishing community comprised of hearty, self-driven people. She sold the hats and sweaters at local fairs in the summers. She decided to try her hand at Christmas stockings, which she also offered for sale on a local level. Success m oved her to apply for a space at a large wholesale trade show, where she took many orders for an expanded line of stockings. Friends and neighbors were found who were willing to help knit and stitch stockings to fill orders, which were shipped to all parts of the country. At her second show, Gerry was discovered by several large catalogs, and Christmas Cove Designs was off and running. After Gerry's death in 1992, Jeff took over the running of the business. Looking for a simple yet attractive stocking hanger to display our stockings, we worked with Jeff's creative high school friend, Arnold "Toby" Williams, to invent and patent the Sock Hook®, a unique stocking hanger made of steam-bent Maine hardwood. It rapidly cornered the stocking hanger market with its simplicity of design and strength of purpose, and is a major part of our enterprise today. Handmade in the USA means we are committed to quality workmanship, sustainability and a healthy environment for all. Quick Links
