A Little Shop Update: Shipping News & New Ways to Save

It’s no secret that Etsy has been a huge part of my journey, and I’m so grateful for how it’s helped my business grow and allowed so many long-term customers to find me. While I’m definitely not leaving the platform, I want to be transparent about some necessary changes to my shipping policy.

Because soap is a relatively low-cost item that can be surprisingly heavy to ship, I’ve hit a crossroads. Since I first joined Etsy in 2019, postage prices have climbed over 40%, which means I simply can’t offer free shipping on the platform anymore. I’ve thought a lot about "baking" the shipping cost into the price of each item, but I honestly don’t feel that’s the fairest way to do things. It would mean customers who spend less than $35 would end up subsidizing the shipping for everyone else, and I’d much rather keep my individual prices honest and reasonable.

There is a silver lining, though! As I move more of my business over to my own website, I’m able to offer a better deal for you there. You’ll find lower prices on all of my items across the board, and I’m keeping the free shipping offer for any order over $50. If you haven't had a chance to visit the site yet, I’d love for you to head over and take a look!

Thank you so much for being such an important part of this journey. Your support as I navigate these growing pains means the world to me, and I’m so grateful to have you along for the ride. I can’t wait to see you over at the new shop!
