HOLIDAY SHIPPING NOTE: ALL shipping carriers--especially USPS--are experiencing overwhelming demand due to the Coronavirus pandemic.
Delivery delays and longer than typical transit times are to be expected. Expedited services are NOT guaranteed. WoodSprite is doing everything within our power to get orders shipped as quickly as possible, but once shipped, the packages are out of our hands and out of our control. Please practice patience during this unprecedented time, and in the interim, we wish you safe, healthy and happy holidays, with every wish for a better new year for all.

The holidays are fast approaching, but your holiday shopping doesn't have to be stressful.  Aside from our organic, skin-soothing gift temptations that anyone would appreciate, we can also reduce your workload by shipping directly to the lucky recipient!  To help you get your gifts on time, we've compiled a schedule of expected shipping transit times for packages shipped by UPS and the US Postal Service (USPS).  And for the personal touch, we are always happy to include a hand-written gift card with your message, for no extra charge--just type in your message during checkout and we'll do the rest!

2020 HOLIDAY HOURS/CLOSURES: So that our staff may enjoy time with their families, and for year-end inventory, we will be observing the following holiday closures:

  • Thanksgiving:  We will be closed on Wednesday, November 25, 2019 through Sunday, November 29, 2020 for the Thanksgiving holiday.  Regular business hours will resume on Monday, November 30.

  • Christmas:  We will be closing early on Tuesday, December 22nd through Sunday, December 27th for the Christmas Holiday.  Regular business hours will resume on Monday, December 28th.

  • New Year's: We will be closed on Thursday, December 31st 2020 through Sunday, January 3rd, 2020.  Regular business will resume on Thursday, January 4th, 2021.

All orders placed during these periods will be processed in order of receipt during the next business day upon our return.


Stress-Reducing Holiday Ordering Tips: 

  • It is highly recommended that you place your orders as early as possible, to allow enough time for processing and delivery.  Remember, inclement weather or other acts of nature nullify any delivery guarantees by the US Postal Service or UPS.
  • During the holiday season, the possibility of theft is highly increased--it is best to have packages delivered to your workplace if no one will be home to receive packages during the day. 
  • Always carefully unpack your order as soon as possible in order to report possible damage during shipment, so that replacement arrangements can be made.
  • Be sure to order a little extra something so that you can give yourself a bit of much needed organic herbal pampering to recover from the hustle and bustle. :) 

As always, if you have any questions about your order, or if we can assist you with choosing just the right item for all the people on your shopping list, please feel free to contact us through our web contact form, or email at [email protected]
