Holiday ordering calendar is live!

Every year, customers ask me “when do you need my order by for holiday cards/Christmas?” The short answer is “the sooner the better.”

Because many of our customers want a customized ring or seal to their own design and different materials require different lengths of time for production, the long answer is a calendar, with the deadline depending on if you want it in time to seal your own holiday cards or for Christmas gifting, if it’s a stock design or customized, and what material you want.

Etsy is the fastest way to get a stock design if it’s already in stock, and your primary source for sealing wax.  You can always request a custom listing for any sold out items, wax color samples, custom products, or large orders of wax.

If a stock design is sold out on Etsy, ordering it on Shapeways is the next fastest way to get it, they will 3D print it and send it directly to you.

For custom rings and seals, it’s always best to email the design for a free evaluation and estimate to orders at lightbringerdesigns dot com.
