Red dice calendar includes a clear pink set. Swap it for a different red?
Just wasn't happy with the treat-box-based advent calendar so I busted out the poor neglected Cameo and made a sleek little box that fits in a small Priority Mail box for shipping. Plushie dragons approve.
(Five colors of dice calendars will land in https://silverseams.etsy.com/ tomorrow, the dragons are already there, and the cutting files to make your own calendar boxes are free on the blog at https://silverseams.com/ )

Dice Advent calendar!
This is the green one; the other five colorways (https://cf.mastohost.com/v1/AUTH_91eb37814936490c95da7b85993cc2ff/mastodonart/media_attachments/files/004/212/676/original/19aa347a3e3476fb.jpeg) will go in the Etsy shop tomorrowish.
A total of thirty-eight dice and four li'l dice bags in 24 little treat boxes. A few little embroidered (OF COURSE) surprises in there too, though I'll take a picture of all the contents for them as don't mind spoiling the surprise (like if you're buying it for someone else).
Dice arrive today. Finally decided on my packaging method: Wilton treat boxes arrive tomorrow.
I ordered some extra so I'll probably pack up the rest and put them in my Etsy shop (silverseams.etsy.com) this week.
USPS has the dice!

The first set of dice for the kid's Advent calendar has arrived and now I want to use them for all my valet-tray product shoots.
Decide to try the tracking number at Newgistics directly (it's USPS last mile) and the delivery estimate there is the 19th-21st. Not sure whether that's when they expect to deliver it to USPS (after which it goes Priority, I think) or when it's supposed to arrive here, but certainly that should be in plenty of time.
... now it's in Indiana.
Starting to be a little skeptical of the tracking here.
Okay now "Your item departed a shipping partner facility at 8:38 pm on November 14, 2019 in CAROL STREAM, IL 60188. This does not indicate receipt by the USPS or the actual mailing date."
It's gone from NY to IL; I live in NJ. 🤷
This probably means it's going to their California warehouse along with all the other orders, to be individually packaged and then mailed *back* across the country.
Still, pretty sure that means it arrives before Dec 1.
Wait, "Your item was picked up by a shipping partner at 2:36 am on November 10, 2019 in JAMAICA, NY 11434" so... it's in the United States already? I figured it would be on a boat.
Although... I'm still slightly suspecting that's just the mailing label for after it gets through customs, and doesn't necessarily *actually* mean my item is in Pitney Bowes' possession.

can't stop won't stop
(until I run out of eyes; I placed another order that includes some slit-pupil ones that work better with more colors)

Next up: another dragon notebook: https://www.etsy.com/listing/730045689/game-of-thrones-inspired-mini
Next up is probably the four Hogwarts notebooks, then I'll wander off into the dog-themed stuff. Don't wanna drop my nerdy fans right into the non-nerdy ones cold. 😁
OH at the Magic table: "He's a ten thousand year old demon! Put him back!"
