2023 Update – Changes

Image

Hello all!  

Nantucket Sailors’ Valentines closed during the Pandemic due to inventory issues. Once inventory became more available, I was able to open shop again. Though, shell availability didn’t recover. 

I was not been able to sell full kits for most of my designs. Customers were fine with finding their own replacement shell(s) when needed or the missing shell(s) as it was easier to find a handful than the quantity I require.

Because of this, I’ve more recently made the decision to sell my kits without the shells. I know….

On the bright side….this way, you can either find the recommended shells, choose other shells of your choice, and or use your favorite collected shells. Your design will surely be a one of kind as many customers have previously done this when full kits were offered.

Customers have sent me photo’s of their creations with their own personal touches and they are beautiful.  Most were beginners, and so proud of what they came up with on their own. Visit my Personal Touches page.

I have appreciated all the support I’ve had over the years and your amazing feedback. I never would have been able to keep this business alive for so long if it weren’t for you.

I hope you will be able to adjust to this change based on the changing times we are all faced with. Your continued support will keep Nantucket Sailors’ Valentines alive. Click here to see what my new kits will include.

I would love your feedback along with photo’s of your one of a kind Sailors’ Valentine.
