IMPORTANT UPDATE -- due to the national pandemic and a resulting higher-than-usual volume of packages, USPS advises that shipping times will be longer than they have been in the past.
We've just been alerted that a large number of our shipments these past few weeks have been delayed dramatically by USPS. Please know that we are actively working with USPS to remedy this situation as soon as possible. We are hopeful that those orders will begin moving in the next few days.
The last thing we want is uncertainty surrounding whether your gift will arrive on time. Please know that we are doing all we can to ensure your orders are received as soon as possible.
Thank you for your understanding!
