1) The shop is releasing a special Black Friday collection at noon EST on 11/28. We list the items early so you can peruse (but not buy) mainly because there are eleven of us and over three hundred items per release; giving you the opportunity to build wishlists helps you get a better chance at scoring that perfect thing. Our goods are handmade, and many are one of a kind. A handy tutorial on how to build a wishlist is in the works. It's easy, and allows for instant checkouts when the items go live on 11/28. Shiv, Lia, Sara Eileen, and Nibs' collections are all complete with no further inventory being added. The other seven folks on the shop have more going up daily, so check back!
2) As of 11/1/2025, due to rising costs, all domestic USPS orders will have a flat $4 shipping charge. We DO combine orders and refund if you place multiple orders over, say, a week so you will only see that charge once. This change is so that we can pay our artists at a continued rate of 70/30 and the overhead doesn't eat into their take-home. Thank you for understanding.
3) Tariffs and other USPS nonsense means that sometimes, to ship internationally, we need to use FedEx or UPS. I am hoping this changes, but please plan accordingly, international customers.
4) We have added a Tip Jar. Tips will go toward supplying our LGBTQIA+ artists with supplies and classes to advance their skills. Thank you!
