20% of profits from the specific Pride Collection will be donated until all items are sold out (so not only in June).

]]>Due to order creation time before shipment, as well as USPS slowdowns in transit, my suggested cut off date for orders to be delivered on December 24 is December 1! This is USA domestic only; international orders place now will likely not arrive before December 24.
Thank you for your patience!

My standalone website (this one) does not integrate VAT into the shipping costs and you may be subject to VAT taxes when your order arrives to your country.
If you would like to pre-pay the VAT and have it integrated into your purchase (a one-step checkout process) instead, my Etsy shop will do that for you.
I highly recommend that all UK and EU customers place their purchases via my Etsy shop.
If you have any questions, feel free to reach out!
]]>The October turnaround time is currently 1-2 business weeks before your order ships. If you have any questions, feel free to reach out.

Thank you for your patience during this time!
]]>My number one (and easiest) tip is to invest in some scrapbook paper pads. I like the 12 inch by 12 inch size that you can often find on sale at paper craft stores.
Why scrapbook paper pads, and not loose sheets? Pads come as a bound book or coordinated colors and patterns. It makes creating a theme on your Instagram feed super easy, since all the backgrounds are pre-coordinated for you! They are also easily mixed and matched, so you can do a 50/50 split with two pieces of the paper for an extra fun background.
If you keep your pages bound in your pad and do not tear them out, it turns your paper pad into a mini white reflector for your photos too. It makes it easy to bounce light back onto the items you are photographing.
The scrapbook paper is such a fun way to add cool backgrounds to your photos! There is a huge variety of paper available if you start looking.
I also love using scrapbook paper for my pin boards to give them a colorful background. Here is one of my Marvel pin boards. Isn't that rainbow swirl so fun?
I hope you found this easy tip helpful! Follow me on Instagram for more small business tips. I'm always happy to share.
]]>As of May 1 2021, my turnaround time is still 5-6 business days. I will make another announcement when TAT changes. It is a busy month of May for me, so the TAT will stay at 5-6 days for a little while.
I made this handy infographic to help visualize the creation process and offer a quick hello to BombDotComGeekery.

Some important shop updates regarding shipping:
Due to new VAT laws, and the surrounding current confusion, I am temporarily halting shipping to the UK until further notice. I will make another post later on if/when I resume shipping. Thank you for your understanding and patience!
For domestic and international shipments, there are still delays happening due to the global pandemic. Shipping is a little better than it was around the holidays, but there may still be delays on your packages. Thank you in advance for your extra patience.
]]>As stated in previous posts on my website, by recommended order-by date for USA was December 9th. Any orders after that may not arrive in time for December 24 delivery.

The global COVID-19 situation is still causing delays in shipping transit times. Worldwide, postal services are delayed and working with extended transit times. International shipping (from USA to international) is also still delayed, and in some cases its due to some packages traveling by boat rather than by plane due to the limited number of flights traveling internationally.
Domestic mail is delayed by approximately 1-2 business days, including Priority Mail services.
International mail is delayed by about 1-2 business weeks; for example if previous transit time was 2-3 business weeks, it has been extended to 3-5 business weeks.
I thank you in advance for your patience. Let me know if you have any questions I may be able to help you with; you can reach me by the contact form on this website.

International deliveries are also delayed. When placing your order to an international location, please double check your country's current status on accepting international mail. Some countries may be closing their mail services to international packages and delaying deliveries sometimes for additional weeks as they quarantine mail.
