New to the shop—the Peace Dove die cut sticker! I've sold this at in person shows over the last couple of years, but have decided to offer it online, too. I think we can all appreciate the true value of peace these days...

An important note about shipping. The flat rate of $6.00 for Canada and the USA ($10.00 international) has worked reasonably well up to now, but because of some recent delivery issues, I have revised how I mail orders out. But it's good news! I will now be adding tracking to all shipments (previously it wasn't included on local area deliveries). I am also now eligible for an occasional discount as a Canada Post business customer, which I can pass on to you. This means, if a package ends up costing less than $6.00 ($10.00 international) to ship (including tracking), I will refund the difference to you. Packages that end up costing more than the flat rate will stay the same as before—you pay the usual amount at checkout, and I will cover any extra costs. Refunds will be applied after mailing, so you won't see a change when placing your order—you will still pay the usual flat shipping rate. If you are eligible for a refund, it will be applied within 5 days of your order.

Some news odds and ends. First, the January 2025 subscriber newsletter has gone out! Let me know if you didn't receive it yet. If you're not yet a subscriber, head over to the Contact page and send me an email!
.
I've had to raise the shipping fees a little for 2025. The rate for shipping to Canada and the US is now $6.00, up from $5.00, while the international rate is now $10.00, up from $8.00. This is still a bit less than what I actually pay for shipping, but hopefully I can balance keeping things affordable for you and still cover most of my actual mailing costs. Thanks so much for understanding! Product prices will stay the same as before. :)
.
And I'm gearing up for the shop reopen on Friday, after being closed since November 15 due to the postal strike. Looking forward to seeing you there!

Hi all. Please note that the shop has closed for the holidays a little earlier this year, due to the Canada Post strike. I haven't been able to ship orders since the strike began on November 15 2024, and though the strike is now over as of December 17, I've decided to remain closed until January 3 2025. Canada Post has estimated it will take one to two months to be running normally again, and the huge backlog of mail currently waiting to be processed at Canada Post plants—plus the avalanche of holiday mail now being dropped off—means anything I ship out now will likely not reach its destination until after January 1 (if not later). I would rather hold off on shipping until things are calmer, and have less chance of sitting in a mail processing plant for ages!
.
In the meantime, I hope that you and your loved ones have a warm and happy holiday—and I'm looking forward to sharing new things with you in 2025! Thanks so much again for your support this year. I so appreciate you all—it really does mean the world to me!

STATEMENT ON THE CANADA POST STRIKE
.
Update: Canada Post workers are now back at work as of December 17 2024, after a month-long strike. They have indicated that they will require 48 hours to get things up and running again, and new mail or parcels will not be accepted until Thursday, December 19 2024. It's estimated that it will be up to two months before the flow of mail is back to normal, due to both the strike and the time of year it occurred.
.
Hi all. On Friday, November 15 2024, 12:01 ET, the Canadian Union of Postal Workers (CUPW) went on strike. I will be closely following the updates from Canada Post about this situation, and will in turn update you here as it progresses.
.
Here's what Canada Post said to expect while the strike is on:
- mail and parcels will not be processed or delivered for the duration of the national strike, and some post offices will be closed
- service cannot be guaranteed for items already in the postal network
- no new items will be accepted until the strike is over
- once service resumes, processing and delivery of mail may take some time to return to normal
.
I will continue to take your orders here, but as you can see I cannot guarantee when they will ship—rest assured I will mail orders out as soon as I can. In the meantime, thanks so much for your understanding while we wait this out!
.
If you're in Ottawa, I will be at two craft shows where you can buy directly from me:
.
Holiyay Craft Show - National Arts Centre, Sunday November 17, 11 am - 5 pm
Idle Hands Art, Craft and Vintage Sale - AllSaints Event Space, Sunday December 1, 10 am - 5 pm
