Update on Christmas Orders

It is with a BIG smile on my face that I can let you know that I have completed and shipped ALL regular and personalized jewelry orders placed through noon on Sunday, December 20th. The cutoff date for guaranteed Christmas delivery was December 5th. However, I've been working every single day since returning from my trip in November to be able to get out everyone's orders so that they can have them in time for Christmas. If you haven't received your order yet, it is on the way. Please note that delivery outside of the United States is not guaranteed, as we can't predict what date you'll be receiving your package.

There are a few special order Gold items that I'm still waiting to receive in from my suppliers. These will ship to you as soon as they arrive.

Custom Engraved Handprint and Footprint Jewelry and Photo Jewelry have been completed through the December 5th order date, even though the cutoff date was November 30th. Right after Christmas I will be working on the next batch of custom orders placed from Dec 6 to Dec 10.

I will be taking the next 4 days "off" to get my own Christmas shopping completed, and spending time with my family during this special holiday. However, we will still be shipping items from the Holiday Gift Ideas collection:

December 14th-Worldwide Candle Lighting for Deceased Children

The Compassionate Friends Worldwide Candle Lighting®, held annually the second Sunday in December, this year December 14, unites family and friends around the globe as they light candles for one hour to honor and remember children who have died at any age from any cause. As candles are lit at 7 p.m. local time, creating a virtual wave of light, hundreds of thousands of persons commemorate and honor the memories of children in a way that transcends all ethnic, cultural, religious, and political boundaries.

Now believed to be the largest mass candle lighting on the globe, the Worldwide Candle Lighting, a gift from TCF to the bereavement community, creates a virtual 24-hour wave of light as it moves from time zone to time zone. Hundreds of formal candle lighting events are held and thousands of informal candle lightings are conducted in homes as families gather in quiet remembrance of children who have died, but will never be forgotten.
