Our Story: How a Family Dream Turned into Hillside Home Store
Meet the People Behind the Stillwater Well Ceramic Gravity Water Filter
Our story begins in a kitchen, just like yours.
We’re the Mullins family. A husband and wife team raising three little ones in the hills of Oklahoma, doing our best to live simply, honestly, and intentionally. That same mindset shapes the way we parent, the way we nourish our bodies, and the way we run our business.
Long before Hillside Home Store was born, we met in college studying health and nutrition. That foundation shaped our lives in a big way. Over the years, we’ve become passionate about the things that keep us grounded and well: organic food, natural materials, clean water, and low-toxin living. Not because it’s trendy, but because it’s how we thrive.
The Problem We Couldn’t Ignore
When it came to our home, one thing stuck out: we couldn’t find a water filter that aligned with our values and felt like a piece we’d actually be proud to display.
Most filters on the market were made of plastic, stainless steel, or mass-produced components. They worked, sure, but they didn’t feel right. They didn’t bring beauty to the space or spark joy. They weren’t made with care or intention.
So, we made our own.
A Water Filter That Feels Like Home
We created The Stillwater Well, a handmade ceramic gravity filter that’s made from natural materials and beautiful enough to live on your countertop.
We design it for families like ours who care what is in their water, and what is holding it. Crafted with a 3.5 gallon capacity and a lead-free glaze to bring you clean water day after day.
Each filter is crafted from American clay, fired with care, and built to last. No two are exactly alike, and that’s what we love most. They’re perfectly imperfect, just like real life.
What We Believe
At Hillside Home Store, we believe the things in your home should do more than just work. They should support your wellness, reflect your values, add beauty to your space, and last long enough to be passed down.
We build every product with that in mind: natural, beautiful, and heirloom quality.
What’s Next
The Stillwater Well is just the beginning. One day, we hope to offer an entire line of handmade, non-toxic home goods—from ceramic kitchenware to heirloom-worthy pieces that elevate the everyday.
This isn’t just about clean water. It’s about creating a home that reflects your values. It’s about design, health, and legacy—all woven into one.
We’re not a factory. We’re a family. And we’re honored to share what we’ve made with yours.
Cassidy & Tucker,
Hillside Home Store
