Holiday Shipping Deadlines, Bulk Soap Discount and a Coupon

Holiday Shipping Deadlines

If you’re like me and still doing your holiday shopping, you’ll want to keep the shipping guidelines in mind. I currently only ship USPS. You can find the full USPS shipping deadline info here. https://www.usps.com/holiday/holiday-shipping-dates.htm

Here are the USPS shipping deadlines to arrive by December 25 for the lower 48 states:

  • USPS Ground Advantage® Service Dec. 17
  • First-Class Mail® Service Dec. 17
  • Priority Mail® Service Dec. 18
  • Priority Mail Express® Service2 Dec. 20

Alaska and Hawaii are mostly the same, but USPS Ground Advantage needs to ship a day earlier on December 16th

Anything overseas requires Priority Mail Express International® Service and needs shipped by December 16th

While I will pretty much ship until the last minute and do my best to get orders out by the next day, I can’t guarantee delivery by a certain date, so please order ASAP.

 

Stock up on my Handmade Soap

My five bars for $30 deal is back! To get that price, use this listing and tell me the five you would like in the notes at checkout. If you don’t let me know, or a variety is sold out, I’ll try to contact you first. If I don’t hear back within a day, I’ll send you an assortment of my favorites or substitute the sold out one with a different fabulous bar. 

 

Coupon

Now through December 19, if you use the coupon code CHRISTMAS25 at checkout, you’ll get 25% off your order, including clearance, sale and the bulk soap listing. 

 

 

Come See Me!

Sunday, December 21 I will be at V’z Vintage Holiday Market from 10am-6pm. It’s located at the American Legion Post 655, 2817 Carson St., Haltom City, TX 76117. If you’re local, you should totally come check it out. SubEarthan Cottage will be inside this time because it’s December in Texas and you never know what you’ll get weather-wise. 

 

This is my third month at this market. There’s always a ton of unique handmade booths, food vendors and some vintage finds. If you’re looking for some last minute gifts, come support some local small businesses!

Upcycled Boho Kaftan Tops and a Spooky Ouija Board

Upcycled Ouija Board Tarot Box Spirit Divination

I finally got all of the upcycled boho tops listed in the shop. I’ve been calling them poncho tops, but they’re really more kaftan-like. So Kaftan tops? Anyway.

I also finished another upcycle that I’ve been working on for over a year now. If you follow me on the socials, you’ve seen a little teaser of it. Either way, here it is!

 

This spooky box began its life as a vintage silverware storage box that had seen better days. (Of course I forgot to take before pictures. Grrr.) I gutted it, painted it, re-lined it with some lovely purple velvet and made a cute wooden planchette to go with it. I absolutely love it. It’s great for spooky or goth decor, or for storing tarot decks, crystals and ritual tools if that’s your thing. 

 

Here’s the inside. the purple is such a nice contrast to the black and silver on the outside. 

Everything above can be found in my shop. It’s all one of a kind, though, so if you see something you like, don’t miss out.

I added a new Snowman Circle machine embroidery design to my shop. I love how it turned out!

Here’s a clip of it being stitched out:

I’ve been busy working on some new projects lately, but I hope to have a longer tutorial post soon. 🙂

Hot Chocolate Soap and Halloween Bunting

Just wanted to give you a quick update. The Hot Chocolate Soap I mentioned in my last post is now available in my shop. It’s a limited edition, seasonal soap, so get it while you can. 🙂

Also, if you want this Halloween Sugar Skull Bunting, it will only be available until the end of the weekend. If it doesn’t sell, I’m claiming it for my own décor.
