Hello!
I hope you’re doing well as Autumn kicks in. The grand stretch in the evening is truly gone, and the leaves are falling. After such a mild September and October, I’m finally ready for that crisp cold to kick in now, and to put away the summer clothes and get out the winter woolies.
I want to fill you in on Christmas plans, but first I had two lovely pieces of news recently.
Firstly I was accepted as a member of the Council of Irish Fashion Designers. You can check them out at www.irishfashiondesigners.com, and my profile should hit the site soon.
Secondly I was delighted to hear that I’ve been shortlisted for a Future Makers award! Myself and the other shortlisted candidates will be featured in the coming weeks on www.futuremakers.ie if you’d like to have a look.
Christmas Update
So, now to Christmas (I know it’s only October, but my pieces take time to make so it’s important to let you know now)
The really important thing to know is that if you want to be absolutely guaranteed a piece in time for Christmas it needs to be ordered by Sunday October 31st.
Throughout the year, everything is made to order so the lead time is 4-6 weeks. But especially for Christmas, I have been busy making a very small amount of stock.
What that means is that on November 1st, I will update the website with any stock that I have, so that the normal lead times won’t apply. So anything that’s available on the website after November first will be with you by Christmas.
But there will be a very limited amount of stock, so if there’s something you know you want in time for Christmas, then now is the time to order it so that I can make it especially for you in time for Christmas.
Gift Vouchers
If you’re too late to order the piece you wanted, or if you know that special somebody loves my work but just aren’t sure which piece to pick, fear not, gift Gift vouchers will of course be available right up until Christmas. And they never expire, so you can even gift over several occasions so that the recipient can save them up over time for that special piece.
When you order a gift voucher, an electronic voucher will be sent out to you, and if you order before my last posting dates, I will also send you out a gift card (which is that bit nicer than a printout for your Christmas surprise!)
Last posting dates:
Ireland : December 17th
Rest of World: December 4th
Finally, if you have any queries about a piece, or about the run up to Christmas, just drop me an email at info@sinevasquezjewellery.ie and I’ll be happy to help.
In the meantime, have a cosy, spooky Halloween!
Oíche Shamhna Shona Daoibh!
