About This Magnet
It's small enough to sit on your fridge without taking over the whole thing. But pick it up and look at it closely, the detail in the carving is real. Mary, Joseph, and the baby carved from actual Bethlehem olive wood, each one a little different because no two pieces of grain are the same. That's not a selling point we made up, it's just how wood works.
If you're looking for an olive wood magnet family piece you can actually order online, this is the one I'd point you to. It's $3.50 and it's made by hand. That combination doesn't happen by accident.
From Our Family to Yours

Perfect As a Gift
A customer wrote to me last December. She'd ordered a handful of these as stocking stuffers for her sisters, all spread out across different states. Said it was the easiest gift decision she made that year. I hear that kind of thing more than you'd expect for something that costs $3.50.

The Story Behind It
The families who carve these christian magnets have been working in Bethlehem for generations. Same city. Same craft. The olive wood they use comes from trees that get pruned every year, so nothing's being cut down for this. It's wood that would otherwise go to waste, shaped instead into something people keep on their fridges for years.
Most religious refrigerator magnets you find online are factory-made somewhere with no connection to the subject. These are carved in the actual city where the Holy Family story happened. That's not a marketing line, it's just the fact of it, and it's why we work directly with these families instead of going through importers.

Care Instructions
Olive wood is low maintenance. If it starts looking a little dry, rub a small drop of olive oil into it with a cloth and that's all it needs. Don't soak it in water and keep it out of direct sunlight for long stretches.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does it come in any kind of gift packaging?
Yeah, we wrap it up so it's not just rattling around in a box. Nothing fancy but it's presentable, you could give it as-is.
How big is this thing exactly?
Small. Fridge magnet small. I'd say roughly 2 by 3 inches, give or take, because the pieces vary a little depending on the wood grain and how the carver worked it that day.
Is this actually handmade or just labeled that way?
So this is the part I could honestly talk about too long. The families making these... I've been to Bethlehem, I've sat in the workshops, I've watched the carving happen. It's not a factory. It's guys with tools and olive wood offcuts and a lot of patience. Every single piece comes out slightly different, not as a pitch, just because that's what happens when a person carves wood instead of a machine stamping it out. Anyway. Yes. Handmade. Really.
How fast does shipping usually run?
Pretty standard, ships in a couple days usually. Free shipping if you're in the US and over $100.
Is the wood treated or finished with anything?
It's sealed so it won't dry out, olive wood needs that. Real handmade Bethlehem olive wood without a finish just cracks over time, so yes, there's a light coat on it.
