Holiday shopping is going to look a little different this year:

2023 almost broke me (and my business), and for most of this year, I really thought I wasn’t going to be able to have anything special to offer for the 2024 holiday season.

I’ve had to scale my business way back in order to make sure that it could help provide for my family (rather than continue to hemorrhage money), pull out of retail partners, and didn’t even apply to any holiday markets.

But 2024 has been a year of pleasant surprises.

And I’ve figured out how we can still do a holiday season this year:

We’re doing it all Pre-Order style.

Instead of restocking holiday products now and having limited inventory and styles available for holiday shopping in November, we’re doing ALL of it on a pre-order basis.

This means:

  • unlimited inventory (because I can order as much as YOU order)

  • more options (because if you don’t order it, I won’t order the supplies)

  • AND both of us having the peace of mind that our holiday ordering is done and done EARLY.

The timeline: Pre-orders will be open through the end of October, with orders shipping in mid/late November (Approximately 15-20) in plenty of time for holiday gifting.

Ok I know you have questions. That’s ok, I have answers:

Why???? Because this model lets me pre-fund the necessary supplies for a holiday collection, AND fundraise for the dwindling general supplies (packaging and bulk paper goods mostly, but there are a LOT of random little expenses that do with running a small business), and also, it’s fun.

Which products are pre-sale? Everything on THIS page is a holiday pre-order with the aforementioned timeline.

What about everything else? Orders that contain pre-order items AND regular inventory will ship TOGETHER. if you would prefer to get your ready-to-ship items right away, please place two separate orders.

And as always, thank you from the bottom of my heart for choosing to shop small this holiday season.
