“Mood Pillows”
The story, as related in Little Women, is that when a “sausage” pillow such as this was placed upright on the couch, it meant that Jo (i.e., Louisa) was happy. But when the pillow was on its side, the observer had best beware, for Louisa was in one of her “moods.”
This pillow makes a unique and fun gift and is a top seller in our museum store. Size 8” wide, 17” high. Each with zipper for easy washing. For information regarding pattern selections, please call 978-369-4118 ext. 107.
Price: $14.95.

Votes for Women
Items |
 Tea Set.
In the days before the 19th Amendment, a wealthy
Newport socialite ordered a tea set emblazoned with the phrase "Votes
for Women" to make a point to the influential guests who often
dined with her. The Alcotts were ardent supporters of the women's suffrage
movement, and today we offer replicas of this tea set and other items
bearing the "Votes for Women" motto.
