*** Shop News: One day left in the Holiday Sale!! The sale runs through the end of Cyber Monday. ***

I had tons of packing paper that I received with my Rio Grande orders just sitting around, so I decided to cart it off somewhere and shred a bunch of it (I need my own shredder). It is working nicely as filler and cushioning for my packages these days, and I’m using as much recycled and repurposed material as possible in general for packing. I always enjoyed wrapping presents during the holidays and was often conscripted by my family members to do their gifts for them. Needless to say, I’m having a lot of fun with my more elaborate packaging set-up now.

Well, the holiday weekend sale is on! From Black Friday through Cyber Monday, everything in my Etsy shop, including this festive new necklace, will be 20% off. On top of that, orders over $50 in the US and Canada will receive free shipping. Happy shopping!

In other news, I now have a shop at 1000 Markets. Take a look at it here: AntiGenre

I hope everyone in the US had a great Thanksgiving yesterday!
