While their products are beautiful, the website provides a glimpse into the lifestyle.

One of the hobbies that took off during the pandemic is knitting and crochet. Cardigans and crochet items are quite popular now and we think will become more so with the coming holidays. Lion Brand® Yarn Company is a fifth-generation, family-owned business. They provide their own brand of yarn as well as kits, patterns, and finished products.
Knitted products make you think cozy and warm, and we definitely get that vibe from Lion Brand’s website. One notable thing as well is the high-resolution photos on the website. This shows the texture of the yarn and other products available. You can almost imagine what kind of cardigan or item you’ll end up making with their yarn just by looking at the photos.
Slimes grew in popularity thanks to the ASMR trend that took over the internet a few years back. Until today, there are fans who still love the stuff and it helps that slime creators have kept innovating with their endless creativity. We can see it in Snoop Slimes who create the most realistic looking “food” slimes out there. They also have an array of other slimes--crunchy, jelly, clear and metallic.
For a product as fun and creative as this one, they opted to go for a more simple layout. But what makes them stand out is the color, as well as the close-up shots of the actual slime. Since they sell an array of different textures and inclusions, this is a nice touch that their customers will appreciate.
For those who like to cook, you know how important the quality of your knife is especially when you’re preparing meat. Folded Steel offers gorgeous chef knife essentials that are sharp, sturdy, and dependable.
The website is a reflection of the product’s gorgeous finish. The high-resolution photos allow you to see the texture and quality of the products. Their product descriptions are engaging and are able to describe the items so well, showing off their knowledge and expertise.
