I have been really busy with my little shop, especially with my recent big score of all the amazing steals and deals. It is part of a very large lot of merchandise I bought from an amazing manufacturer. There is more to come but the bulk of it I have sold. Getting in my final batch sometime next week and will spend a good day or two unloading, pricing and taking pictures, it will be the last of it until the holidays. I know what December brings...and it gets really really crazy!
I inevitably get a lot of questions around this time so thought I would address them as I did last year in one big wrap up post on my online shop as well as share some pertinent information with regard to orders and deadlines. In addition this year I will close my shop on Dec.15th until after Christmas. I hope anyone who needed to get something for Christmas will have gotten it by then but I know realistically that's the official mark of "pure chaos" and I will be having houseguests, and no doubt be very busy with them, gift wrapping, gift buying....all that goes along! So for about 10 days the shop will be "on a much needed little vacation"!
So I wanted to address a few things just in case you have your eye on something in my online shop (either for yourself or for someone else). So just a few things to note-
MY ONLINE SHOP WILL CLOSE ON DEC.15TH UNTIL AFTER CHRISTMAS
(I can still be reached but will not take orders after Dec. 15th)

My custom gorgeous napkin rings....I cannot think of a more beautiful way to accent any table and what a gift these would make. This find is one of my all time favorites! Though there's been a price increase I am keeping the prices as is until after the holidays.
Several of my customers give one or two as gifts and are helping their special someone build a collection..I love that idea and tradition! I happen to have quite a few rings in stock right now (in anticipation of the holidays). Some are below, if you have something in mind email me to see if I have it. Custom orders can still be done but time is ticking. These sell on some sites for up to $200 each but I sell them for $56.00! These are all handcrafted and made in the USA! Last day for a custom order to guarantee Christmas delivery is Nov. 22nd.

The beautiful assorted Santa's there are about 6-8 different versions!
One of my personal favorites....the gorgeous stag deer!
Beautiful detailing....
Monogrammed items. Definitely an awesome gift to anyone who loves her home. You tell me one person who would not be totally thrilled to get a gorgeous set of monogrammed cocktail napkins with a bottle of wine, or elegant dinner napkin bearing their initial or beautiful guest towels with a box of soaps. They are just beautiful and super affordable. People often email me when they get their order to say how gorgeous they are and how they cannot believe the prices! Last day for a monogrammed linen order is Nov. 30th. to see them on online shop.
More amazing monogrammed goodies. The monogrammed cutting boards, glasses, and soaps are another hot seller around the holidays. They are affordable, gorgeous and custom. Here are a few gifts about to go out the door to show you how pretty and unique these monogrammed orders are. Best part is they ship out within 2-3 days. I will be taking orders for any of these items up until Dec. 10th. to see these monogrammed items on my online shop.
Love the idea of a sterling silver monogrammed necklace....who wouldn't love that!
How about a set of four monogrammed low or high balls?

Silver anything. I am a huge huge fan of my silver line. It is a beautiful gift to give, and I like to m fill a planter with either a beautiful floral plant, get creative and maybe add a wine or champagne bottle or fill a small one with pretty guest towels....there are many possibilities. to see my silver online.
A few questions I get a lot-
If something is not in stock, what happens? You will get an email within 1-2 days of ordering asking if you want to wait (with an estimated wait time) or you will have the option for a full refund.
Do you ship internationally? Yes but not all things. Porcelains and candles are fragile and super heavy to ship which means its risky and very expensive. So I do not ship porcelains or other breakables internationally. International shipping is always billed separately. If you want an estimate before you purchase just email me.
Will I be getting new products for Christmas? I will be offering up the remainder of the steals and deals the first week after Thanksgiving and that will be the end of that (last batch). After that I will be concentrating on fulfilling shop orders in a short window. I am (due in any day) getting in these exceptional finds from Vagabond House, if you don't know of them they make the most exquisite pewter items, incredible and heirloom quality, everything comes in a beautiful box ready for gift giving ....email me if you want anything below, I know these will go fast! I am offering them at a specially discounted price on this post before they get to my shop.
Getting in a limited number (2-3 of each) of these magnificent tole items! Great gift for yourself:)
These wonderful oversized decorative canisters would add such elegance to any setting they are used in, gorgeous black and rich red....

They will be added sometime next week under European Kitchen. I am so excited about getting these! to see all the European Kitchen goodies online.

And finally I get asked for advice during the holidays on a great hostess gift, so here are a few top picks and ones that I give over and over....
A great hostess gift, any of the monogrammed linens (many under $20-40), anything monogrammed, like a box of monogrammed soaps or a monogrammed ice bucket and I LOVE the gorgeous crystal urn candles with the most heavenly gardenia scent (triple scented which means even a small candle fills an entire room with the most delicious scent) that are refillable!! The smalls are $45.00 and are so exquisite. One of my favorite things! to see these candles on my online shop.
The second style....love how old world it feels
This is the "big daddy" 50 oz of pure gardenia heaven. It is so beautiful lit! I have one next to my tub:)
Also giving one of these guest towel or cocktail holders is a practical and very elegant gift. I like to purchase a package of pretty napkins and put them in and then wrap up with cellophane....so pretty! All of these are found on my silver shop online, to see them.
And if you are thinking of a little something for yourself, or a special something for a mom or sister....the alpaca remains one of my most favorite items. Seeing is believing...and these are as luxurious as it gets! Just got in the reversible capes that were sold out, only 1 or 2 of each color so if you were one of the people wanting one.....don't miss out!
I am offering them at a special promotional price of $340.00 (they retail for $500). This is something you will have forever and want to use everywhere....trust me, I do! to see the line. If you want to order contact me as the promotional price is not online.
As of right now, all colors in stock (for a limited time)
red/navy
charcoal/beige
vicuna/light beige
charcoal /red
black/red
A few other faves from this line are the single colored wrap, the luxurious fingerless gloves and the ultimate bathrobe (cozy doesn't begin to describe)
Last are the boxwoods which have been really popular lately.......thinking that they are perfect for the holidays. The quality of these boxwoods is the best I have seen. I love boxwood and these are magnificent. The nursery only makes a certain number and there are a few styles already sold out. The 4" and 6" boxwood balls and 16" wreaths are finished for the season. A few other styles are getting close to selling out. So if there is something your eye on don't wait too long or feel free to email me about its availability! to see boxwood online.
Is this the cutest thing you have ever seen? Mini 4" boxwood topiaireis! Perfect for a place setting for the holidayss...love this little guy:)
