home sweet [new] home!
greetings, dearies!
the year 2020 has certainly brought with it a fair share of new circumstances. who knew at the start of the year that the face mask was going to be the required fashion accessory, right?
selling our home of 12 years and moving out of state was added to our new prospects list and i'm happy to share that we have settled into a lovely home in beautiful, tranquil fountain hills, arizona.
we had plenty of memory making adventures along the way to our new state and home, but the rewards have been worth it. the dearie daughters revel in having their own bedrooms, finally, and have happily settled in to their new schools and school routines. i have to add, we all delight in the fascinating daily wildlife, literally outside our front door. from quail parades to coyotes, bobcats and jack rabbits, to gorgeous great horned owls, we never know what to expect to see when we look out our windows or sit on our patio, but it's always exciting.
like this t-rex and raptor!
now that things have settled down a bit from our move, i've finally had the time to make a few updates to my website though there will be additional updates in the coming months.
currently, i've chosen to limit orders exclusively within the united states. if you are in canada or the united kingdom and interested in purchasing, please reach out to me directly. as we now reside in the state of arizona, sales and use taxes become a new matter for me to navigate. my website has been updated to charge for state tax if you order and ship within arizona, but will also charge for county and use tax if you are within fountain hills, arizona. if you reside in a state outside of arizona that has a sales tax, you will still be responsible for reporting and paying those taxes, yourself. additionally, i have plans to update the look of my website in the coming months, too. just a little nip and tuck here and there to freshen things up and embrace our new home state. i'll keep you posted in future missives.
finally, fall is upon us, which means it's time to bundle up, add layers or if you are in florida or arizona, add a sweater to your shorts and tank top! my dresses layer beautifully with sweaters, cardigans, turtlenecks, jeans and leggings. looking for inspiration? you will find it here, on my versatile page.
wishing you all the best as we collectively move into the final months of this crazy year, and looking forward to many positives in 2021!
until my next missive...
xoxo
