lots of shops are going on vacay & closing up till january or taking a much needed break, but guess what? not sprout studio or my etsy sprout studio shop *or* my vintage gleaner project shop!

shop away, shop for fun, shop for friends, shop all night, shop till you drop, shop on christmas day, shop all january long if you wish! i'll be around, i'll be here for you. & i'll ship some goodies whenever you wish :)

& there is still FREE shipping in both sprout shops & a coupon for my gleaner shop (new10) for 10% off.

go get some handmade goodness for all those fab people you know.

not that i'm advocating the getting of things...

...but just in case anyone needed to get me any pretty-pretty lovely items, i have a little list for santy & santy, you can find that list right here on pinterest -- so many items i don't need, and so many items that would make life funner, more beautiful, & sunshiney -- & sometimes, that's okay :)

most of the items are handmade by artists & craftspeople & we definitely need to be supporting those people!

happy meat free monday!

& every december it seems i like to give FREE SHIPPING in my shops :) so people, free shipping has been enabled in my etsy sprout studio shop for all month long!

i don't believe in black friday (come on, it's BUY NOTHING day people!), or really, cyber monday (there have been some interesting points made on the blogosphere about discounting handmade items, as in, they are already a labor of love & priced accordingly, so when discounted do they become de-valued? interesting chatter going on...) but i do believe in giving a break on the shipping - so have at it awesome sprout fans!

& ps, for those of you paying attention, it's been FREE shipping in my regular ole sprout studio shop for quite some time now.

so get yourself something lovely!
