Celebrating in the Heart of Equestrian Elegance — Middleburg, Virginia

Celebrating in the Heart of Equestrian Elegance — Middleburg, Virginia

by Nicole Ferguson in Scrapbook

Dear Supporter,

In the world of curated elegance and equestrian heritage, there are few places quite like Middleburg. Recently, Town & Country Magazine described it as “the nation’s hunt and horse capital.” For us at Every Little Something, nestled here in this corner of Virginia, it’s not just our home—it’s the inspiration behind everything we do.

Why Middleburg Matters

Middleburg’s rolling green hills, centuries-old architecture, and thriving equestrian traditions draw a direct line to Old World elegance while remaining distinctly Virginian. 

  • It’s where fox-hunt riders parade down Washington Street in scarlet jackets and with hounds at their side.

  • It’s home to prestigious institutions like the National Sporting Library & Museum, honoring the art of horsemanship and field sports.

  • Though only about an hour from Washington, D.C., Middleburg feels a world away—timeless, refined, and unhurried. 

Put simply: It’s the perfect place for handcrafted elegance, for timeless keepsakes, and for the kind of design story we love to tell.

How We’re Inspired & What That Means for You

At Every Little Something, everything we design is inspired by the textures and traditions of Middleburg—stacked-stone walls, fox-hunt heritage, and the charm of horse country. That spirit comes through in our three signature collections:

Every piece brings a bit of Middleburg’s heritage into your home, your routine, or your wardrobe.

In Gratitude

As we mark this second year in Middleburg, we thank you—our customers, friends, and fellow lovers of craft—for joining the journey. Through each handmade piece, we celebrate heritage, place, and the quiet luxury of meaningful design.

And of course, you’re welcome to visit the town that shaped them. If you’d like to dive deeper into Middleburg’s story, we recommend reading the full Town & Country feature: “A Snob’s Guide to Virginia Horse Country” by Lydia Mansel. Town & Country

Here’s to another season of elevating stationery, gifting, décor—and yes, to ornaments with story.

With warm regards,
Nicole Ferguson
Owner, Every Little Something

Sweet and Kind: A Little Brand with a Big Heart

Sweet and Kind: A Little Brand with a Big Heart

At Every Little Something, we’ve always believed that the best things begin with heart — a note, a gesture, a small act of kindness. That same spirit lives on in Sweet and Kind, our in-house brand created by our owners’ eight-year-old daughter, Millie. Following in Her Mom’s Footsteps Growing up surrounded by creativity, color, and calligraphy, Millie has watched her mom, Nicole Ferguson, turn ideas into beautiful stationery and keepsakes that make people feel special. Inspired by that same joy of creating and connecting, Millie wanted to start something of her own — something that would help people remember to be sweet and kind to one another, every single day. Handmade with Heart What began as a table full of beads and bright imagination quickly grew into a thoughtful collection of one-of-a-kind handmade bracelets, each made by Millie herself. Every piece is colorful, unique, and designed to celebrate individuality — whether it’s worn by a child, parent, or friend. Recently, Sweet and Kind has expanded to include handmade bag charms, bringing even more ways to wear and share positivity wherever you go. Each item carries Millie’s simple but powerful message: that kindness never goes out of style. Giving Back to What Matters From the start, Millie wanted Sweet and Kind to do more than just make something pretty — she wanted it to make a difference. That’s why a portion of proceeds from every Sweet and Kind item will be donated to the Middleburg Humane Foundation, supporting their mission to care for and protect animals in need. It’s her way of combining creativity with compassion — proof that even the smallest hands can make a big impact. A Brand for Dreamers and Do-Gooders Sweet and Kind isn’t just a bracelet company. It’s a reminder that creativity has no age limit, and that kindness is always worth sharing. Every bracelet and bag charm is handmade with love, designed to spark smiles, encourage giving, and inspire others to follow their hearts — just like Millie did. ✨ Shop the Sweet and Kind collection and join us in celebrating creativity, compassion, and the beautiful reminder that kindness can start with something small.

Introducing Our First Exclusive Apparel Collection: The Middleburg Crewneck

Introducing Our First Exclusive Apparel Collection: The Middleburg Crewneck

Every Little Something was born from a love of the written word — the way a letter can tell a story, a monogram can carry meaning, and a design can capture a moment in time. Now, that same spirit of thoughtfulness and artistry has found a new form. We’re delighted to announce the launch of our very first exclusive apparel line, beginning with the Middleburg Crewneck — a design inspired by heritage, handcraft, and home. A Tribute to Middleburg Set against the rolling hills of Virginia’s Hunt Country, Middleburg has long been known for its timeless grace — a place where tradition meets quiet sophistication. From its cobblestone walks and historic inns to its storied equestrian roots, Middleburg embodies a lifestyle that values beauty in simplicity. The Middleburg Crewneck celebrates that legacy. Designed by our owner and stationery designer, Nicole Ferguson, it features a custom crest and “Middleburg” written in Nicole’s signature calligraphy — a delicate, personal touch that reflects the same artistry behind every piece of stationery we create. Everyday Elegance, Thoughtfully Made Soft yet refined, the Youth Middleburg Crewneck was created with comfort and style in mind. It’s perfect for school mornings, playtime in the park, or cozy weekends at home — a wearable keepsake that grows with the memories made in it. Each piece is an Every Little Something original, blending craftsmanship, comfort, and community into one timeless design. The Beginning of Something New This launch marks a special moment for our brand — expanding from paper to pieces you can wear, each designed to honor the same values that inspired our first handwritten note: care, character, and connection. Our Middleburg Crewneck isn’t just apparel; it’s a love letter to where we live and to the people who make this town so extraordinary. 🛍️ Explore the full collection here.
