KIRKLAND, Wash.–(BUSINESS WIRE)–#BenFranklinofRedmond–Small Town Living™ announced today that the company is launching its e-commerce site Small Town Living Market (www.smalltownlivingmarket.com) and will begin taking orders for Small Town Living Crafts Boxes™ in partnership with Ben Franklin Crafts and Frames of Redmond, Washington (www.craftsandframes.com) and Remlinger Red Gift Boxes™ with Remlinger Farms of Carnation, Washington (www.remlingerfarms.com). The announcement marks the first time the two popular Washington state businesses will market their products through gift boxes and the Small Town Living Market e-commerce site.
The boxes focus on the following themes:
- Remlinger Red Gift Boxes™ – Gift boxes filled with country-themed comfort and specialty foods for corporate gifts and loved ones – Wine optional

According to the company, the specialized holiday, gift and crafting boxes are a unique and substantial way to thank employees, business customers and partners or give to friends and family. The craft boxes are a convenient and thoughtful way to provide fun activities for schools, after-school clubs, senior centers, church groups and family gatherings. The boxes will be appreciated items to include as part of any philanthropic gifting programs.
“With its focus, storytelling mission and marketing potential, Small Town Living Market is the perfect way to introduce our products and new crafts boxes to the online world,” said Neil Ferguson, owner of Ben Franklin Crafts and Frames of Redmond, Washington, the business his family originated more than 47 years ago. “I am excited about the idea of bringing our city and company to a broader worldwide audience. I like to travel to and experience small towns. Now our organization can help bring that feeling to our customers when they purchase our craft boxes or other store items on this exclusive and unique site. Crafting can bring communities together. By partnering with Small Town Living Market, we are bringing more people together to discover the joys of crafting, while making it convenient and easy.”
According to the 2021 Statista Global Consumer Survey, over a quarter of respondents in the United States reported arts and crafts as a hobby or interest. Meanwhile, online searchers of creative activities in the U.S. rose significantly during the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic as people were compelled to find ways to entertain themselves while staying at home. Research also suggests that crafting can relieve stress.
“Remlinger Farms is thrilled to partner with Small Town Living Market in order to bring our specialty foods and products in a gifting format and extend our reach online,” said Nathan Sherfey, grandson of the founders of this quaint family and corporate party destination minutes from Seattle. The venue has grown to attract some of the world’s largest and most renowned companies based in the region. “We believe our many corporate customers and families who love what we bring in food and entertainment will want to share the experience with their own customers, partners, employees, family and friends through our gift boxes.”
Research shows that gift boxes make a marked positive difference in improving relationships with customers and employees. According to the company, no other website is exclusively offering the products, experiences and stories that bring the distinct feeling and attributes of small towns in the manner presented by Small Town Living Market.
