lot8 started with a bread bag and kept going!
It's Simple to Use
Cut your slices from the centre of the loaf. Put the two halves together and pop them into the bread bag. Pull the drawstring. Your bread will stay fresh for up to 5 days.

Keep Textiles from the Landfill
Bunting GarlandEven natural compostable fabric like linen and cotton doesn't belong in the landfill where they don't get enough oxygen to decompose. Instead, I use remnants to create smaller products such as the Bunting Garland (see the link below). The really tiny scraps are used as filling for natural cat toys or are donated to other makers. In addition, I love working with second chance fabric (a.k.a. deadstock...think fabric samples from interior designers and perfectly good fabric left over from an upholstery job of office chairs). Why waste a good thing?

Let customers speak for us
from 39 reviewsThis is a great, well made (no loose threads or unravelling) tool that is helping to up my bread making game. Having never used a couche before, I had a lot of questions that were answered kindly and promptly by Kim who is absolutely lovely. This may be more expensive than some others available in the market but the great customer service and the fact that I’m supporting a local vendor/locally made product is absolutely worth it.
These bags are so stylish and versatile - the 3-pack contains bags of different sizes in order to accommodate loaves of different shapes/sizes whether they be a boule, loaf/batard or a baguette. These are also better than plastic bags/airtight bins for keeping the crust crispy while helping to slow down the staling of the crumb because of the more open weave or nature of the fabric.
I picked up the June's Dotty Not Your Grandma's Tea Cozy yesterday, and I used it this morning. It is THE BOMB (yes, I am aging myself with this reference)! I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE my tea cozy! It is stylish, environmental (all natural!) and - importantly - functional. With the tea cozy, my teapot stayed warm, as did the contents. If you are on the fence about the purchase, don`t hesitate! Kudos and thanks to Kim!
These are truly THE greatest cloths, EVER! I replaced all of my washcloths and only use these for washing my face, day and night. They wash beautifully, hold their shape, never discolour and feel fabulous on my skin! Not to mention, they look gorgeous on my ensuite vanity in the canvas organizing tote. I recommend these cloths to everyone!
I love to support women-owned Canadian companies. Thank you for my boule bag that I store my homemade bread in. I will purchase the loaf one next.
good quality linen, keeps my sourdough fresh, if my family doesnt eat it all in a day haha... would definitely reccomend the largest bag size, I got two and even if the loaf is smaller you can always wrap it around. Better to have a bag thats too big than one too small!
I love this, as this product disguises the tissue box quite well. Great quality!
I've started baking sourdough bread and sourdough bagels in anticipation for our bed & breakfast season at the Cottage on Caledonia. Of course, the guests who arrive on baking day will enjoy fresh baked bread or bagels, but the reality is I need the right storage practices to ensure I can provide that crunchy crust and chewy sourdough flavour for a couple of days - my new bread bag does exactly that! I will probably need to get at least one more bag before our season starts in May.
Love this bag. On my list for gifts.
This holiday season, members of my team received a Lot8 bread bag as part of their gift. People have interrupted their vacation to tell me how much they love their bread bag! Thanks, Kim, for what you do!
For Christmas, I gifted myself these beautiful linen napkins. I look forward to using them daily in 2024 as I continue to reduce my personal use of single-use "stuff." They are lovely and a perfect size. Thanks, Kim!
These face cloths are so well made and make the ritual of washing your face feel so luxurious. I love that that they are a generous size and feel nice and soft on my skin. They also wash beautifully and don’t seem to show stains due to the texture/colour.
I bought these for my own cat and to give as gifts. My 20 year old cat who doesn’t usually respond to catnip toys loved his and has been playing with it a lot! I’m guessing that the catnip is fresher/more potent than the usual catnip filled toys that you would buy at the store. I also love how adorable they are with the cute little cat face.
I absolutely love my bread bags that are hand made in Stratford
They are a generous size for the large loaves of bread that i purchase
I also really enjoy supporting small businesses
I bought this pretty bunting garland for my daughter. She is a kindergarten teacher and loves it. It sets off the art work of her talented students on the board and adds colour to her classroom.
