Bells Handcrafted in the USA - Family -Owned since 1994.

Bringing joy home
since 1994.

We started with a simple sleigh bell strap and now have thousands of JOYful keepsakes for your home & loved ones.

Memories - are what we make best.

In 1994, a practical joke sparked an idea…and a family business. Larry (Husband of “Wit” and Father of “Hil”) always dreamed of building something we could do together. We started with a few simple sleighbell straps - and a whole lot of heart.

Results: Today we provide hundreds of handcrafted bells on leather and hand-personalized gifts that bring a smile (and a jingle) to every home.

Why “Wit & Hil”?

Late one evening, a text thread between a mother and daughter turned into laughter because of Sally’s Wit and Micki’s Hilarity.
And Voila! – Wit & Hil was born.
