12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS: DAY 5

Good morning and happy Wednesday everyone! 

I don't want to jinx anything but I think the elves actually have everything under control around here. Dare I say that they are even caught up through today? Is that possible? That is unheard of during this crazy, nutso sale!

Our Notion of the day: KAREN KAY BUCKLEY SCISSORS

Aquascissors

I don't know if you remember the lime green scissors from last year's sale that so many of us fell in love with… well, this is the slightly larger and equally awesome pair of 6" scissors. These scissors are TO DIE FOR. My new favorite.

Things to know: Micro-serrated blade, comfortable soft aqua handles, protective plastic cover, cuts through several layers at a time with no problem, super sharp… and well, just awesome!
Official Information: Designed by Karen Kay Buckley. The handles are larger, cushioned for comfort and can be used right or left handed. Micro-serrated blades for better cutting in tight spots and with slippery fabrics. 6" the perfect mid-size scissor.

Our Gifty Item of the day: VINTAGE BIRD POSTCARDS TIN

What else can I say? I love everything Cavallini does. I really do.

12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS INFO… 
PLEASE READ ALL THE DETAILS 
AS SOME INFO HAS CHANGED FROM LAST YEAR
 
* The Fig Tree 12 Days of Christmas sale starts on Black Friday, the day after Thanksgiving, and lasts for 12 days [usually with a Sunday off here or there].  
 
* Each day a different kit, stocking stuffer and/or home dec goodie will be advertised- on some days several of each! WE HAVE SO MANY YUMMY GOODIES THIS YEAR! Each day a special DAILY DEAL will be made as well.  
 
* Each special offer will only become available on that one day. Each goodie will only be available while stock lasts. Most of the items offered will sell out on that day, some will last a few days. Please believe us that some items will sell out crazy fast [in minutes] and some will last all day based on popularity and stock. Although we try and anticipate the demand, we are often surprised by your enthusiasm and are limited by how much stock we can carry of any given item.
 
* We never know which ones will sell out the fastest! If we are able to get more in stock of any popular product, we will try but we can't guarantee that anything that sells out will come back in stock. If they can, it will not be a part of the sale but something that we offer after Christmas for a separate January delivery. 
 
* For those of you who want to continue to purchase items throughout the 12 days of the sale but want us to hold your purchases for one shipment, YOU NEED TO BUY-A-BOX. SEE MORE INFO BELOW. The box is an actual product available on our homepage.  You only need to purchase it once either before the sale starts or on the first day that you purchase a 12DAYS item- but you need to purchase it as an actual product once. Then for all the remaining purchases you make, you will simply choose the "I BOUGHT  A BOX" option in the shipping directions during the checkout process. PLEASE READ BELOW FOR NEW INFO on the BUY-A-BOX option.
 
*** PLEASE READ CAREFULLY
AS OUR SHIPPING OPTIONS HAVE CHANGED THIS YEAR ***

Just like in past years of the 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS we offer you the choice to hold all of your daily goodies to be shipped together at the end of the sale so you can save money on the shipping costs and keep adding goodies throughout the 12 days! Its an awesome option and a lot of fun! This year we are continuing our special shipping system, called "BUY-A-BOX" and have added the "BUY-A-ENVELOPE" option.

This is how it will now work:
Given the crazy, popularity of this sale for us, each year we have to make some adjustments based on the past year's sale. This year, just as last year, in order to "play along" with the 12 days of the sale, you need to first BUY-A-BOX or BUY-AN-ENVELOPE.

If you think that you will mostly buy small items and are primarily interested in the daily deals and the stocking stuffers, then you should BUY-AN-ENVELOPE. If your goodies "spill" out of the envelope, we will upgrade you to a medium box… AT NO EXTRA CHARGE. Once your medium box fills, we will send it to you along with an email that your box has shipped. Depending on what day of the sale it is and if you plan on continuing for the remaining days, you will then be able to decide if you wish to buy another envelope or box in order to continue with the sale or not.

If you think that you will be trying to get kits, fabrics and some of the "bigger ticket" items and you are a die hard 12 DAYS OF CHRISTMAS fan, then you should BUY-A-BOX. If your goodies "spill" out of the medium box, we will upgrade you to a large box… AT NO EXTRA CHARGE. Once your large box fills, we will send it to you along with an email that your box has shipped. Depending on what day of the sale it is and if you plan on continuing for the remaining days, you will then be able to decide if you wish to buy another box in order to continue with the sale or not.

If your envelope or box does not fill throughout the sale, it will remain until the last day and it will ship on that day.

The biggest change from last year – for those of you who have participated before- is that once your allotted box has filled, we will need to ship it and you can decide if you wish to purchase another box. This is still a fabulous shipping deal! Not only because we will be upgrading you one shipping category at our cost, but because you can keep shopping knowing that we will continue to put items in your box until we absolutely cannot add anything else! The reason we are changing the shipping from the past is because of the sheer volume of customers that outgrew their box multiple times. The result was a bit more chaos than the elves knew what to do with around her toward the end of the sale!

    The deal for yesterday just arrived in my inbox. I tried to find the link to the kitchen towels & couldn’t find it. Are they sold out? If not how much?

    Yesterday’s items sold out yesterday. Today’s deal sold out today. That is the way this sale works. If you are receiving the blog subscription only, like we have mentioned before, you are receiving the emails a day late since that is how the blog aggregator program seems to work, beyond our control. If you want to receive the information the moment we go live, you must be subscribed to our Fig Tree newsletter.

    Thanks so much and so sorry you missed out!
