Window Gems
Brand · Accessories
We began creating Window Gems accidentally. Eileen had some prismatic static cling vinyl because, well, it was pretty. She cut out a few circles and put them on her window to stop birds from hitting it, and that was the extent of it. But then…. Kendra saw them and knew immediately that this was a PRODUCT that we needed to develop in order to make saving birds fun, easy and beautiful.
And now, several years later……. We are co-owners of a thriving company that employs several fabulous women in our little town of Mount Shasta, California. Our product line has expanded to over 70 designs, and Window Gems are carried in over 600 shops across the US and Canada.
Kendra is a biologist and the owner of Raven Tree, a wild bird and nature shop in our little town of Mount Shasta, California. She is a wealth of information about birds and their needs as well as bees, bats, and all kinds of other critters. Somehow she magically can be a mom, run her store, tend several beehives, have mad skills as a potter, AND manage our wholesale accounts. She has a passion for nature conservancy and is thrilled that this little company we started has been able to save thousands of birds every day with our Gems
Eileen has a background in architecture and design, and spends much thought on creating beautiful things that make people happy. She has always been a bit of a dreamer, or whatever you call someone who finds joy in the simplest of nature’s designs. When she isn’t creating more Window Gems she might be gardening, responding to “Mom!”, hiking, or obsessively reading way too late into the night. She is pretty sure she has the best job ever.
