Designer Shanah Lewis of Little Houses Clothing is having a 25% off sale on these super stylish handmade sweaters: The Boreal, The Bratislava, and The Rosemont. Once she sells out, she won’t be making any more in these styles, so if you’ve had your eye on any of these, now is your last chance! Check out Shanah’s website or Etsy shop to order your own.
If you’ve got a Buffalo Exchange in your town, be sure to stop by this Saturday, April 25 for their Dollar Day Sale. Many items will be on sale for only $1 each, and all proceeds from these items will go to the Save Whales-Not Whaling campaign of The Humane Society of the United States and Humane Society International. Whaling still takes place all over the world, both legally and illegally. We watched the Kingdom of the Blue Whale documentary a few weeks ago on the National Geographic Channel, and amazingly enough even these creatures, the largest in the world, are still ending up in fish markets in Japan illegally, sometimes by accidentally being killed during legal fishing operations.
