Keep Calm and Carry On!



That's my new motto for this year. At least, a little mantra that I hope I can remember in more stressful moments. I've seen many versions of that great phrase online and while I would love to own one of those, I'm on a limited budget after the holidays. So instead I made my own thrifty and quick version this morning. The chalkboard hangs on the wall across from my work desk, so all I have to do is look up if needed.

It's been freezing lately and sales in my shop are not so hot either, but I was warmed by some of the sweetest feedback left by one of my recent buyers the other day:

Cathy is amazing. She keeps up with her clients at all times, being very professional, and always letting them know if a package may be a day or two late. I received my package in a timely manner, seven days from the original ship-date, which came to California all the way from Canada! She is also an honest seller, who offered to refund the extra shipping cost that was unnecessary, as it cost less than expected to ship, or to send a few trinkets in place of it. I chose the latter, and on top of my original two purchases, received some adorable stickers of a kitty and of the love doves, as well as a matching pin for this shirt! I've added a picture of myself in the shirt, which was just as wonderful as I would have expected. Thank you, Cathy! (read more @ feedback for bookmark)

This bookmark was just as cute as I would have hoped it to be. It was shipped fully laminated, and even had a piece of cardboard behind it so it wouldn't bend! Very clever. Every piece of the shipment was in wonderful detail, and Cathy even sent me a personalized thank-you note, which I have attached for your viewing pleasure. She is a total sweetheart, and her items are one-of-a-kind. You've nothing to lose, kitty lovers, now shop, shop, shop!

Here she is wearing her new tee from my shop.


Thanks for making me smile, Danielle! Now in her wise words:
"You've nothing to lose, kitty lovers, now shop, shop, shop!"
