Last Day for Guaranteed Arrival Before Christmas!

Good morning all... I don't usually post on the weekends but I thought I would pop in really quick and let you know that today (12/15) is the last day I can guarantee a product brought from my Etsy shop will arrive before Christmas!

So anything bought after today, I unfortunately can't guarantee that it would arrive before Christmas (unless you wish to pay for expedited shipping - please contact me if that is the case!). Sorry about that! If you purchase something today, I can have it packaged and ready to go for Monday. :)

To sweeten the deal even more, my free shipping deal is still going on! Use coupon code LITTLEOAKCHRISTMAS12 for free shipping on anything in the store! This coupon code is good until 12/25 - so even though you may not receive your item in time for Christmas if you buy it after today, you can still enjoy free shipping as my gift to you! :) (Sorry my lovely international readers! I cannot ship internationally at this time.)

So if you're thinking TL;DR (Too long; didn't read): my Etsy shop! and coupon code LITTLEOAKCHRISTMAS12. Buy today to guarantee arrival before Christmas. That's all you gotta know. ;) See you next week!

Also...
My heart is heavy today and I am so sad for those children and adults who lost their lives yesterday in such a horrifying fashion. Please send your thoughts and prayers to those families today as they begin on this incredibly difficult journey.

A few new things in my Etsy shop!

Hi all! Hope you had a fantastic weekend. In light of the recent promotion going on in my Etsy shop, I thought I would try to get a few new items in there! I recently acquired some vintage/antique lace of all shapes and sizes and thought it would make beautiful headbands and head pieces.

Etsy Store listing for Soft Lace Headband

 This one is a soft cottony lace, and it's probably one of my favorites because it's the first one I made... ha! It also sits on my head very well and doesn't slip around, which is a huge plus in my book. Seems like any head band I ever try to wear scoots around and there is nothing more annoying than that! This one is held with elastic so is a continuous band around the head.

Etsy listing for Gorgeous Poly Lace Headband

This one is a gorgeous polyester lace with so many details to it, slightly wider than the one above but made into a continuous circle with a bit of elastic in the back. I also think this is one of my favorite photos of myself! ha! ;)

Etsy Listing for lace applique headband

I think these are all "my favorites" but this one is stands out above the rest for me... such a fun way to use appliques and how beautiful would this be in a bride's hair? It's stark white on a grey grosgrain ribbon, with plenty extra to cascade or make a larger bow. Plus, it's guaranteed to fit any head - the elastic ones are pretty much made to fit an adult ladies head, but how cute would this ribbon one be on your baby or flower girl?

Etsy Listing for Ivory Lace Headband

This one is a soft ivory lace with a white satin ribbon laced through it. The lace goes all the way around the head, and ties in the back with the ribbon. The ribbon is so soft but thick, very high quality feeling.

These are actually pretty fun to make so I'll most likely be adding more soon. They're all $9.99 and all come in a small tulle drawstring bag so you can give them as a nice gift! :)

Don't forget! Use coupon code LITTLEOAKCHRISTMAS12 until 12/25 to receive free shipping! Enter it in during checkout to receive free shipping (it doesn't apply automatically!) Thanks for looking!
