Exciting News for the New Year!

General Goods is getting a sister!

A sister shop will be celebrating its grand opening TOMORROW- new year, new beginnings!  Here's a sneak peak of some of the things you'll be able to find there...

Hand Designed Dangle Earrings

Wearable Art- you decide if you want a brooch or a pendant!

Kiln Fired Wire Wrapped Pendants- a Father-Daughter Collaboration

Free-Form Wire Wrapped Sea Glass

Festoon & Flourish will be your source for unique gifts and wearables.  Featuring handcrafted earrings, wire-wrapped jewelry, and customizable "Wearable art"- I design it, and you get to choose how you want to wear it.

Some items will be moving from General Goods to Festoon & Flourish- Rose Stud Earrings, for example, will now be located in F&F, as well as wreaths and candles.  GG will still be your one-stop show for all things gamer/geek/fandom related- and F&F is for the non-gamer in your life!  

Look back tomorrow for the Grand Opening post- and a coupon code!  Because what's a Grand Opening without a sale!

Last Minute Gift Ideas!

There's still time to do some online Christmas shopping!  Here's some last minute additions to the shop- All of the items below are ready to ship! 

Mini Wreath Ornaments!

Super cute and all different, these mini ornaments are

perfect for your tree or as a gift for someone else!

Handpainted Wooden Santa Ornaments

It's Santa!  I know him!  With his rosy cheeks and

little red nose, these ornaments are super cute- and

New Holiday Jewelry Section!

Hello again, it's been a while!  There have been so many things in the works for General Goods and I'm very excited to share one of them with you today!

Introducing a new section on the sidebar in the shop- Holiday Jewelry!  Keep an eye out, as more additions to this section and the rest of the shop will be coming in the next few weeks!

Hooray for Halloween!  And hooray for Fall!  Check back for updates, there's a lot more coming soon!

Etsy Announces Gift Cards Coming Soon!

Etsy just recently announced that they will be rolling out Gift Cards this fall, just in time for the Holiday season!  Gift cards will only be available to use in shops that currently have Direct Checkout available (that is an alternative to using pay pal, available at the owner's choice).  

Good news!  General Goods has direct checkout available, so when the gift cards roll out- you'll be able to use them here!  So if you know someone who plays Team Fortress but you're not sure their favorite class- you can hook them up with a gift card and they can choose their own TF2 Class Emblem Pin!  Same goes for Horde/Alliance, Harry Potter House, etc!  

Look for Gift Cards coming soon!  

And don't forget to follow General Goods on twitter @GoGeneralGoods for announcements and coupons.

Gryffindor is sold!  However, if you like the idea of these wreaths and need to have one, just send me a message on etsy and I can start to work on something special just for you!
