Two more days and we enter 2026. 2025 has been one hell of a year and I would like to say it won't be forgotten but I personally am looking forward to forgetting it quickly!
I would like to thank everyone who purchased this year for your support and continued business. You have been a huge blessing to my small business, and I am extremely grateful for you!
Jewelry is a bit of an issue as gold and silver prices continue to increase in cost like it never has before which is cause me to increase prices to continue to make it. I put through price changes only when necessary and will continue to do so until prices start to come back down and I will be quick to lower prices when they start to fall!
I have not had to increase prices on anything else yet. Organic Bath and Body, Runes, Tarot Cards and Books all remain the same prices they were at the beginning of the year, and I hope that I won't need to, but I will keep you posted in 2026 if there are any changes.
Shipping charges have been a challenge this year, however, now that the holidays are over, they should return to their previously high prices without the holiday surcharge! I don't expect them to increase too quick as long as gas prices remain low! USPS is running slow; UPS is doing ok but delays in 2-day air and the inability to get an overnight package by 10am is showing that laying off 48,000 workers took a toll on their efficiency!
I am REALLY looking forward to a new year even though I believe it is going to be volatile year in just about every way!!
