CARING FOR YOUR
HER HIVE COLLECTIVE TOOLS

At Her Hive Collective, we believe the tools you use to nourish yourself deserve care and intention. Each wooden piece is handcrafted and unique—treat it with love, and it will serve you beautifully for years to come.

WOOD CARE
Our wooden ritual tools are handcrafted from natural wood—olive, acacia, and other sustainably sourced materials. Like all organic materials, wood needs occasional nourishment to stay beautiful.

- Hand wash only with warm water and mild soap

- Dry immediately and thoroughly with a soft cloth

- Never soak or leave sitting in water

- Never put in the dishwasher or microwave

- Oil monthly (or when the wood looks dry) with avocado oil or coconut oil

- Apply oil generously, let sit for 20 minutes, wipe off excess

- Store in a dry place with good air circulation

Over time, your wooden tools will develop their own unique patina— this is natural and beautiful. The grain may deepen, the color may shift slightly.

This is the wood aging and getting better along with you.

WHY WE LOVE WOOD

Wood is grounding. It connects us to the earth, to slow living, to rituals that have existed for centuries. When you stir your coffee with a wooden spoon or toss your salad with wooden hands, you're participating in an ancient practice of nourishing yourself with intention. Wood is also naturally antimicrobial, gentle on cookware, and when cared for properly, lasts a lifetime.
