Hello everyone,
Just a few quick final notes for the year, especially relevant if you plan to place an order before January.
The holiday shipping deadline (and end of the 35% off promo) for the US is this year is going to be end of day Monday Dec 8th, beyond that lies the REALM OF UNCERTAINTY!
The post office (which I love dearly) is in rough shape in recent years, and they're extremely overburdened during the holidays, which means it's very hard to predict how long packages will take to ship, but I'm fairly sure that orders placed before the cutoff on the 8th will reach you before Christmas.
I will continue making, packing, shipping orders through the whole holiday season, just at a little slower pace than usual. There's a good chance that some orders, especially for ready-made stuff like trays, coasters, keychains, will still arrive in time even after the cutoff, but honestly who knows, that's why it's the realm of uncertainty.
USPS Priority (all belts, larger items, orders with multiple things) typically takes 2-3 days
USPS Ground (for small stuff like keychains and patches) typically takes 5-6 days.
Safe to add another 2 days to each during the holidays.
If you have a specific request, or a question about delivery times, just reach out. I'll accommodate if I can. I can do express shipping if you really need it, though it's pretty expensive, so try not to need it.
A special note to customers outside the US (Yanks keep scrolling):
I know the whole customs/tariff thing is very very stupid, it hurts pretty much everyone, and I see the drop in sales to the UK/Europe and Asia. If you're considering placing an order, I will do my best to fill out declaration forms in a way that will minimize fees. I also recently reduced the shipping price for the Wayward Sister Keychain, since it fits in my smaller mailer ($18 instead of $42). It's all a mess, I'm sorry, I hope it gets better soon. Contact me if there's a way to make things easier on your end.

Finally, I know I talked a big game about wallets during the holidays, as I often do, and I didn't end up having time for them, as I often don't. Sorry for the false alarm. I really do want to get some more on the site, and Jan/Feb is typically slow, so I'll try to make it happen then.
Finally finally, a major huge thank you to everyone who has ordered the new Wayward Sister Keychain so far, it really feels good to ship these out. The belt-half upgrade for current Wayward owners is due in early January. A little later than I initially told some of you, but they're on the way.
That's all. Here are some recent projects, see you in 2026.
