Sloop Stuff

Post by mbw1024 »

Our last 2 trips we have made a point to visit Sloop Jones studio. We really enjoy going there. Somehow we didn't make it on our first trip.

Our last visit we took our niece and she purchased a Sloop T shirt for her doggie. It was her first trip away from the dog since getting him last Sept. so I think she was a little doggie sick for him. Here's Percy with his new t shirt for his 1 year birthday (and his cool Caribbean collar from STJ Spice)

And I added to my pillow collection on this trip.

For me taking home a piece of Sloop's art is a real island treasure. Be sure to visit on your next trip. It's well worth the ride!

Wow. What a great Sloop endorsement. But my opinion is a little tainted- my wife just started working for Sloop and Barb a few months ago(say "hi" to Angie). VERY nice people, too.

oh when we were there we heard that Angie was in New Jersey, which is where we came from! Are you guys from here?

I know Sloop is "out of the way" but I just like going there. Figured I'd spread the word.

Yup. We went back in May to do alittle work and see friends and family.
Just met a local girl who is going to Morristown for school. Lots of NJ connections here.

Okay, those dog shirts are the cutest thing ever.
(Plus, I want a dog now.)

We started carrying Sloop Jones clothes for women recently in St. John Spice Too. Now I'm thinking we should get the dog tee shirts also. I didn't even know Sloop made those.

Thank you, Mary Beth.

I really like the linen shirt I got in 2008. We will be returning in Feb. for sure.

It's on my "new" list for November.

I've been eyeing the pillows on his website.
