Our Website is Back!

After About a Month, StoneinShoe.com is Back Online

Hope for the Future - one of our new prints available in our shop

Over the last two months we have been changing and adjusting many of the things at Stone in Shoe, including our website which we switched to a totally new platform and appearance.

The website took plenty of effort, but we know it was worth it because it is easier for visitors to use and navigate, and also easier for us to manage and update.

You can take a look now, and see for yourself: StoneinShoe.com.

Along with making some big improvements on our website, we also have developed relationships with local businesses and craftsmen in Thailand where we will get the prints made, stretched, packaged and shipped.

Visit the Shop to see our prints, including several new offerings we are very excited about.

We also want to mention on here that our website includes a blog, meaning that most posts we write will be put there. So if you want to continue reading our blog, visit the Stone in Shoe Blog.

We are excited to be moving forward and making Stone in Shoe into a business with the dual purpose of selling great art, and supporting anti-trafficking organizations. We hope you will join with our vision, and spread the word about modern slavery. Follow us on social media (no the right sidebar) to keep up with the latest news and information.

Thanks for your patience in this transition,

The Stone in Shoe team

Under Construction!

stone in shoe news and updates


Hello, everyone! It's Jess! Long time no see.

As some of you may have noticed, our site is looking... a little different these days. We just wanted to let you all know that this is temporary. We're working on tweaking a few things here at Stone in Shoe, and unfortunately our site will be down while we undergo these changes. One of the wonderful things about starting a business from scratch is that we can fix/change things as we go along. We're still small enough to make big changes relatively easily.

We took a break over the holidays (well, I took a break... Peter kept plugging away while Buddy traveled the world). Throughout that time, we did a lot of thinking and brainstorming about what was next for Stone in Shoe and in what ways we can improve it. Our goals are still the same: we want to see an end to human trafficking as soon as possible. We want to help be a part of this end by raising funding and awareness for the fight against this horrific darkness. We want you to partner with us in the process. Last, but most certainly not least, we want to glorify God along every step of the way.

At this point we still don't know exactly how long we'll be down, but we do know it will be very temporary. Vital information for you in the meantime: our social media still is, and will continue to be up and running. This includes our Twitter, Facebook, Pinterest, and Google+ accounts as well as all of our email accounts. Please please please feel free to contact us at any time with any questions, comments, or concerns.

Also, you should still totally visit www.stoneinshoe.com where you'll find a place to sign up to be among the first to know when our site is re-launched.

As always, and as I kind of mentioned above, we would love to hear from you. Please don't hesitate to contact us with any questions about human trafficking and what we're doing about it, suggestions or comments on what YOU would like to see at Stone in Shoe, or... anything in that ballpark. Or in a different ballpark. We just love hearing from you.

Hope you all are having a great start to 2014. Together, we can make this year a year of change for millions. Let's do this.
