Black Friday is here, and I’m so excited to share what we’ve been working on for you. Our Black Friday Sale runs from Monday, November 24th through Sunday, November 30th, and it’s one of the best chances all year to grab handmade goodies and stock up on supplies for your own holiday crafting.

If you’ve been eyeing something in the shop, this week is the moment. Discounts apply across the store, and yes, many items are up to half off. But today I want to highlight what so many of you come to Decor8yourlife for this time of year: handmade gifts that feel personal, useful, and beautiful.

Handmade gifts that are ready to wrap (and hard to find anywhere else)

There’s something special about gifting handmade. It’s not just the item, it’s the story behind it. For Black Friday week, our shop is full of pieces made in small batches, by hand, with lots of love and attention to detail.

Vintage and shabby chic journals

Our handmade journals are a favorite for a reason. They’re cozy, pretty, and meant to be used. These make thoughtful gifts for:

• journal lovers
• list makers
• memory keepers
• students and teachers
• anyone who wants a quiet creative escape

Each journal has that Decor8yourlife vintage, shabby chic feel, and no two are exactly alike. If you like gifting something meaningful without having to guess a person’s size or style, a journal is always a safe, heartfelt win.

Traveler’s notebooks for on-the-go creativity

If you’ve never owned a traveler’s notebook, this is the week to try one. These are passport-size handmade traveler’s notebooks designed to go everywhere with you. They’re perfect for daily planning, gratitude journaling, travel notes, sketching, or even pocket scrapbooking.

They also make a gorgeous gift because they feel like a little treasure. People love opening something that looks curated and one-of-a-kind. During the Black Friday event, traveler’s notebooks will be priced to move, so if one has been on your wish list, don’t wait too long.

Beaded pens and stylus gifts for her

Beaded pens are one of those gifts that always gets a smile. They’re cute, practical, and they feel extra special because they don’t look like anything from a big box store. We’ll have beaded pens and stylus pens on sale all week, including designs that match our paper collections and seasonal themes.

These are great as:

• stocking stuffers
• teacher gifts
• coworker gifts
• journal and planner companions
• secret Santa surprises

If you’re shopping for someone who loves stationery, planners, or pretty desk accessories, these are a no-brainer.

A few remaining Hello Kitty beaded goodies for Sanrio fans

I also want to give a quick heads-up for my Sanrio and Hello Kitty friends. We have a small number of Hello Kitty beaded pens and bracelets still available. Once they’re gone, they’re gone.

These are perfect for the Hello Kitty character lover in your life, and they’ve been popular every time we restock. If you want one, Black Friday week is your best shot to grab it at a discount.

It’s the perfect week to stock up on craft supplies for handmade holiday gifts

Let’s talk about the makers for a second. If you’re planning to create your own gifts this season, Black Friday week is the time to fill your craft cart.

A lot of people wait until December to buy supplies and then realize they’re rushing. This sale gives you a head start, and you’ll save money while you’re at it.

Bead and charm packs

We’ll have bead packs, charm packs, and mix-and-match sets that are ideal for winter crafting. These are great for:

• making your own beaded pens
• charm clusters for journals
• keychains
• bag charms
• zipper pulls
• planner clips

If your craft style leans vintage, cute, pastel, or classic shabby chic, you’ll find colors and themes that fit right into your stash.

Beadable items: pens, keychains, bookmarks, and more

During Black Friday week, you can also save on the base items you need to build gifts quickly. We carry beadable pens, beadable keychain supplies, and beadable bookmarks, so you can make sets that look boutique-quality without boutique prices.

This is especially helpful if you’re making gifts for groups like:

• a classroom
• coworkers
• church friends
• craft swap buddies
• family stocking stuffers

A handful of supplies can turn into a whole pile of sweet handmade gifts in one weekend.
