SALE SALE SALE!!!

Our widest sale of the year has just begun. While most are out crashing and clamoring, pushing their way through crowds and standing for hours in the longest lines ever to get a few bucks off whatever Made in China POS they absolutely have to have today. I'm sure you are doing the sensible thing and staying home. I say sensible to make myself sound like I'm not cowering in a corner with my door locked and windows shut because the shoppers on this day terrify me. But alas I am myself a retailer and this notes true purpose is to let all my sensible, cowering in corners, loves know that big box stores aren't the only places for big sales. Every single item in ALL of our etsy shops is 20% off from now through Cyber Monday. And shopping with us means no standing in lines, no crazy drivers and no fear of possibly getting punched in the face or trampled to death. We also make everything hand made ourselves, can personalize just about anything and are here for you when you need us. So don't miss out on our huge, 4 day Shop Small to Change Big sale!

Leaving A Memory- Andrea Wallard

For two of my lovely ladies who have lost beloved friends recently. My heart and love are with you miss Alica and miss Autum.

It's that time again~*

It's about that time again, though I personally think it's way too early, to start talking about Christmas. Now I'm a strictly no-Christmas-until-the-day-after-Thanksgiving girl. And yes I'm talking about the terrifying stain on our culture known as Black Friday, though I must state for the record that I DO NOT shop on Black Friday, not once, not ever. People die on Black Friday over the chance to get 20 bucks off of some piece of crap merchandise that is 98% likely to have been made in China and is going to fall apart on you sooner rather than later. Doesn't that seem like something we, as a culture, should reevaluate? Anyway day after Thanksgiving we stay home and decorate for Christmas. I don't want to hear or see or think about anything Christmas before then. However, I'm a retailer, try as I may to do things my own way sometimes if you don't jump on the boat you get left treading water in the wake. So as much as it pains me I am going to start all of our Christmas advertising and all of our talking about why you should make serious effort to buy small this Holiday and what kind of deals you can get with us and other small companies that we connect with. :)

So don't hate us for trying to keep our heads in the game when those big guys are all too willing to crush us all and line their very deep pockets. We could all be a bit more aware of where our money goes and what it means.
