The holiday season is a busy time for everyone, especially for those who run small businesses or online shops. As Christmas 2025 approaches, it’s important to plan your orders carefully to avoid any delays or disappointments. This year, our website will remain open throughout the holidays, but there will be specific periods when orders will not be processed. We want to be transparent about our schedule so you can plan ahead and enjoy a smooth shopping experience.
Important Dates When Orders Will Not Be Processed
To spend quality time with family and recharge, we have set two breaks during the holiday season when order processing will pause. Here are the key dates to keep in mind:
No order processing from Saturday, 20th December 2025 until Monday, 29th December 2025
During this period, we will focus on celebrating Christmas and enjoying time with our loved ones. Although the website will remain open, any orders placed during these dates will be processed only after 29th December.
No order processing from Tuesday, 30th December 2025 until Saturday, 3rd January 2026
This break is for a personal birthday celebration and some much-needed rest before the new year begins. Orders placed during this time will be handled starting 3rd January 2026.
How This Affects Your Orders
Understanding these breaks will help you avoid delays and ensure your gifts arrive on time. Here’s what you need to know:
Place orders early
To guarantee delivery before Christmas, please place your orders well before 20th December. This gives us enough time to process and ship your items.
Orders during breaks will be queued
If you order between 20th December and 29th December, your order will be processed starting 29th December. Similarly, orders placed from 30th December to 3rd January will be processed after 3rd January.
Shipping times may vary
Shipping carriers often experience high volumes during the holidays. We recommend allowing extra time for delivery, especially for international orders.
Tips for Smooth Holiday Shopping
To make your holiday shopping stress-free, consider these practical tips:
Check product availability early
Popular items may sell out quickly during the holiday season. Browse and select your gifts ahead of time to avoid missing out.
Review shipping options
Some shipping methods offer faster delivery but may cost more. Choose the option that best fits your timeline and budget.
Keep an eye on order confirmation
After placing your order, you will receive a confirmation email. If you don’t get it within a few hours, check your spam folder or contact customer support.
Gift wrapping and special requests
If you want gift wrapping or personalized notes, place your order early to ensure these services are completed before the breaks.
Why We Take Time Off During the Holidays
Taking time off during the holidays is essential for maintaining a healthy work-life balance. Here’s why we prioritize family time:
Recharge and refresh
Running a business year-round can be demanding. Holidays offer a chance to rest and return with renewed energy.
Celebrate important moments
Christmas and birthdays are special occasions that deserve undivided attention and joy.
Provide better service
When we come back rested, we can serve you better with faster responses and higher quality.
What to Expect When We Return
Once the breaks end, we will resume order processing promptly. Here’s what happens next:
Orders will be processed in the order received
We handle orders based on when they were placed, so no one is left waiting unfairly.
Shipping resumes as usual
We will coordinate with shipping partners to get your packages out quickly.
Customer support available
Any questions or concerns you have during the breaks will be addressed once we return.
Final Thoughts on Planning Your Holiday Orders
The holiday season is a time for joy, connection, and thoughtful giving. By planning your orders around our schedule, you can avoid delays and ensure your gifts reach their destinations on time. Remember to place your orders early, especially before 20th December, to enjoy a smooth experience.
