Just like that, it's November and we are officially in the 2025 Holiday Season.
Meanwhile, I'm already two markets checked off from October and at least three more to go from now until December- 'tis the season for your favorite small business jeweler and all other creatives out there. So while I'm juggling all the hats behind the scenes, here's a look at some things to come for the month of November and a little planning into December.
What you'll learn in this post:
- Collection Releases + Website Restocks
- Official Holiday Order + Shipping Deadlines
- Tucson Markets + Local Pickup
- Food Drive for the Robles Ranch Food Shelf

Collection Releases + Website Restocks
I've been working hard to get new jewelry on the website as often as possible to help with gift planning and shipping deadlines. In November you can expect the Scorpio Collection release and a restock after the Desert Air Market on the 15th, but there may be more as we work our way through the Holiday season and markets. *Look for at least one restock in early December after the Tempe Festival.

Official Holiday Order + Shipping Deadlines
My Holiday order deadlines are posted and planned with consideration of my schedule and the official USPS recommended shipping dates. Find all the details HERE or by clicking the banner at the top of the page.
Tucson Markets + Local Pickup
As I often do, I'm offering local pickup on orders for the first half of November, corresponding to when I'll be set up at markets in Tucson this season. You can place an order up until the day before and pickup at the market the next day.
Pickup dates + times:
- Nov 8th & 9th at the Artisan Marketplace at Harlow Gardens, enter code: HARLOW at checkout to waive the shipping fee and pickup during market hours: Sat 9am to 5pm; Sun 9am to 3pm.
- Nov 15th at the Desert Air Market (aka DAM) at Tucson Hop Shop, enter code: DAM at checkout to waive the shipping fee and pickup during market hours: 11am to 5pm
***Be sure to enter the CODE for which market you'll be picking your order up at- you'll also find the codes in the Holiday Order + Shipping guide.
Food Drive for the Robles Ranch Food Bank
For the month of November I'll be hosting a food drive for my local community in the Three Points area of Tucson, and issuing a discount coupon for a CHD jewelry purchase as a token of my appreciation.
You can learn more about the Robles Ranch Community Food Bank and how you can donate to families in need while scoring a discount from me by visiting: The CHD Food Drive blog post, HERE.
Let's come together to help feed people in our communities near and far.
