'Tis The Season For Self Care

'Tis the season for self care, at least for me. I’m trying to fit in moments of pause and reflection amidst the busy. Yes my nails that I painted three weeks ago might be chipped, yes there are piles of projects everywhere, yes it is way busier than usual but I’m also creating space to get to those things when I can and the grace of knowing this is only a season and I can only do what I can do. I am also grateful for the chaos and fullness, it means business is doing well and these projects I’ve put into the world are coalescing. Here are some little luxuries that feel like a self-care treat and also make great gifts (not just for yourself):
CLASSES
 
While I've wrapped up teaching classes for 2025 there are a handful of ones already posted for January & February on the website. Classes make great experience gifts and are just a gun way to get out of the house and have something on the calendar to look forward to (especially in the cold winter months). Whether it’s mahjong lessons, learning embroidery, creating a vision board or making a candle and getting a tarot card reading, you can sign up any of them online or in-person while shopping in the store.
 
SHOPPING HOURS & DEADLINES

Just a reminder that through the month of December, we are adding an hour before and after our usual hours each day so we'll be open from 10am-6pm every Wed-Sun for extra shopping time in-person. There are new items and restocks arriving in the shop daily.
 
If you are shopping online, the USPS says that December 15th is the last day they will guarantee shipments to arrive in time for Christmas. Gift cards are always an option as well as our subscription boxes: we have an embroidery of the month subscription and a puzzle of the month subscription which are fun gifts to receive and look forward to.
 
Thank you so much for all your orders and support, I really, really appreciate it!
