HOLIDAY DEADLINES

EFFECTIVE 11/4/2023

READY TO SHIP ITEMS:

          Thursday, December 14th

          These are items that are in stock and do not require customization.  They will be clearly marked as ready to ship in the shop!  

 

MADE TO ORDER*:

         Sunday, December 10th

         If an item is not clearly marked as ready to ship and/or requires personalization, it falls into this category!  *Please note that custom orders and wholesale orders are a separate thing and those deadlines will be given when you request a quote.

 

LAST MAIL RUN OF 2023 IS FRIDAY, DECEMBER 15th. 

This allows for a buffer between my production times and the postal service deadlines.  Please note that these dates CAN change if there is a surge in orders or the postal service changes their deadlines.  I keep a very close eye on the shipping websites and will update if necessary.  I encourage you to order as early as possible just in case!  

 

Production runs a little bit differently during the holidays.  I run ornament orders in batches to make the most efficient use of materials and equipment, so some orders may take the full 3-5 days and some may ship within hours. MAKE SURE YOUR ORDER DETAILS ARE CORRECT IN CASE YOU SHIP QUICKLY!  Ready to ship items take 1-3 days to ship so that they can be combined with other post office runs.   I have 7 years of holiday rushes under my belt, and I have never missed a deadline on my end!  The holiday season is extended to accommodate as many orders as possible, but there are no exceptions for orders placed after the deadlines unless you have spoken to me directly and I have told you I can fit the order in.  If you do not order before the 10th and 14th respectively, your order WILL NOT SHIP until after our holiday break.  We close down for approximately 1 month following our last shipping run of the year!
