:: up up updates ::

some shop-related updates for you today.

first, i don't think i ever told you that i've got four styles of address labels now available in the shop and more coming as the days progress. so far they're proving to be quite a popular item in the shop.

second, some stock-related updates: there are just FIVE deluxe stationery gift sets available and approximately 30 of the limited edition illustrated desk calendars left in stock.

and finally, i am at 998 sales! ever since i started the shop i've thought of 1000 sales as this big huge milestone and i can hardly believe that i'm about to hit it. ONE THOUSAND?! seriously? i can't decide how to celebrate.

thoughts?
