Casey Shea’s “Can’t Get Enough” is spinning on our player today… because there’s so many things this time of year that we just can’t get enough of. Crisp winter air, pine tree smell, holiday lights strung all over the city, peppermint mocha’s, being with family, and the list goes on. What can’t you get enough of during the holidays?
And just a few more SALE days! Take 15% off the entire Family Records store while you still can! Enter the discount code holiday2012 during your check out to get the discount.
The holidays are still going strong here at Family Records! We’ve just received two gifts from abroad - a Christmas package of deliciousness from Birte of Team Wakey!Wakey!, and a lovely card from Julie, a French fan living in Australia! Thanks for the love you guys - we’re so grateful to have friends all over the world.
They’re here! The b-e-a-utiful letterpress cards that we told you about last week are now officially available for purchase at the Family Records Store. We have both thank you and holiday cards available, and you can get sets that include one or both. These classy cards are in extremely limited supply, so be sure to pick up a pack while you still can!
These lovely, handmade letterpress cards are:
- 5 1/2” by 4 1/4”
- Letterpress Cards by the fine folks at All Along Press (if you don’t know what letterpress is click here for more info)
- Only 10 sets of the mixed cards/10 sets of holiday cards/20 sets of thank you cards were made so these are rare!
- They come with a nice french paper envelope for each card!
Want a chance to win some of these bad boys? We’ve extended the deadline for this contest until Monday, December 12th at 6pm. Check it out!
We just received a super cute (and thoughtful) Christmas card from a fan, Laura (@kokalola). Thank you!
Here at Family Records, we love and deeply respect L.L. Bean. They are a huge inspiration for the way we conduct business. The bottom line? Put the customer first, always. This week, our Fall 1939 catalog arrived from eBay. Pretty cool, huh?
Have you found any holiday gifts (for yourself) that you couldn’t help but buy?
