The following dates are my recommended guidelines for getting your order in time for Christmas. Order as early as possible to ensure on time delivery. I do not guarantee delivery dates or offer refunds for orders that do not arrive on time, but if you order by the following dates your order should arrive by December 25th. All orders placed by Dec. 19 will ship out before the studio closes for the year.

This weekend one of my fave shops MUJI Canada is hosting me, Stephanie Cheng, Christopher Rouleau, and Diana Watters at MUJI Atrium (right across from the Eaton centre!) for a pop up community market! MUJI acrylic frames work SO well to display papercuttings so I’m really excited to showcase my work and make it super easy to get a variety of different sized pieces framed on site. We’re even offering FREE customization with MUJI’s Trotec lasercutter! I’ll have all my regular products, and a variety of smaller sized anatomy papercuttings that I haven’t offered before. Plus I’ve designed 2 special customizable pieces that can be engraved on any of Muji’s wooden products. And you can even get your acrylic frame engraved with a custom message (hint: perfect graduation gift for new medical professionals!)

Hope to see you there!

Fundraiser from Aug 4th-9th 2020 - get 25% off any items in our GTFO collection! A portion of the proceeds from these sales will go towards Twelve - a Toronto organization that provides menstrual products to people in need. 

Use coupon code "TWELVE" at checkout. Cannot be combined with other offers and discounts.

Twelve is a Toronto based organization that provides menstrual products to shelters, organizations, and the individuals who need them. Twelve is proud to donate in support of the menstrual health of BIPOC, LGBTQ+, those from marginalized groups, and anyone who is experiencing a barrier to safe menstrual products. 

Because of COVID-19 Twelve has been unable to accept the volume of donations they need to continue fulfilling the needs of their partners. Want to show some extra support? Make a donation here!

Hi friends! 

Just an update on things here - I know things are tough right now for a lot of people during the COVID-19 crisis. I just want to say first of all, please pay attention to the recommendations of public health officials and socially distance as much as possible. 

As you may know, the One of a Kind Toronto Show has been postponed at this point. I'm sad that we won't be able to reconnect with all our wonderful loyal clients at OOAK.

Want to support small businesses during this time? A few ways in the list above - make an online purchase or grab a gift card. If you have to buy necessities, choose your favourite local grocer or order online from a small business. And you can always support us and others by sharing, liking and commenting on our work on social media - it's free! 

Obviously it's tricky to predict what will happen with shipping and deliveries as things are changing so quickly. Please keep in mind that shipping and delivery times may be longer than usual and we cannot guarantee any delivery dates at this time. We thank you for being patient with us, your local post workers and everyone working to get deliveries out!

Hope everyone can socially isolate as much as possible - please be safe and take care of yourselves and your communities. Thanks to everyone who has shopped in the past few days and supported our small business :)

xoxo,

Ali
