Timeless, curated, playful - the art of gathering, reimagined.
At Bamboo & Boxwoods, our mission is to celebrate the art of gathering.
We believe mahjong and game nights are more than play—they’re traditions of connection, style, and joy. With a discerning eye for design and a love of thrifting, we source and share things we find and love; lovely tiles and mats, unique vintage pieces, classic and elegant clothing. We also offer friendly and approachable American Mahjong teaching for those eager to learn the game and join in the fun that has been bringing us together with friends old and new.
Our goal is to inspire women, support women-owned businesses, excite decorators, and create more opportunities to get together and share a laugh and express your individual style.
A note from Christy -
I’ve always had an eye for design and a passion for thrifting. I can’t resist the charm of a well-made chair, the patina of a vintage table, or the character of a piece that tells a story. In early 2024 I took my first Mahjong lesson and developed a new passion for the game.
Mahjong is laughter, tradition, learning, and friendship woven into one. It’s a reminder that play belongs in our lives at every stage! I began discovering and collecting tiles, game mats and racks. Then I went beyond the tabletop, as I hunted for treasures at estate sales and thrift stores and second hand sales, I found myself drawn to furniture that would elevate the way a game room or Mahjong corner felt. I am drawn to vintage, quality, craftsmanship, comfort, and style. I love classic but also love the quirky, and if it’s old and well made….I swoon.
Meredith and I have been friends for decades and always look to do more together. We had the trip of a lifetime in 2024 and found inspiration at every turn in the road. We longed to create something together and when we discovered Mahjong it brought us together more, introduced us to amazing women and stylish gameplay.
Bamboo and Boxwoods was born and we are putting down roots as a place to share all the beautiful and fun things we love. If you want to learn, contact us, we teach American Mahjong (following NMJL rules) to newcomers who are curious to learn and play. If you want to shop our favorite finds — we are adding new items daily! Thank you for being here and for supporting our brand and our friendship!
