Springtime Sale & Lower Minimum for Free Shipping + $35 Gift Code Giveaway & Blog Reader Offer

Hello, STAMPfriends! I hope you are keeping well, healthy, safe, and staying mostly at home in light of what's going on in the world right now with the spread of the coronavirus. STAMPlorations is a small home business and as such, we house all our products in our small office. Even before the pandemic, we've practiced safe and sanitary means, including when packaging our products so be assured that when you order from us, the products you receive are clean. (I have 2 very active toddlers who like to get dirty so it's pretty standard around our home to have wipes and hand sanitizer bottles in various areas, as well as practice regular hand washing.)

Anyway, we have a lot going on in the store as well as here on the blog so I hope you'll take a gander at both places when you have a moment.
