National OT month is coming soon….

Just one more month until National Occupational Therapy month!  In celebration of Occupational Therapy Month I will be selling a special OT Awareness Owl.  Look for the Occupational Therapy Awareness Owl Necklace coming soon.  50% of my proceeds will be donated to Autism Awareness.

Occupational therapy enables people of all ages live life to its fullest by helping them promote health, prevent—or live better with—injury, illness, or disability. It is a practice deeply rooted in science and is evidence-based, meaning that the plan designed for each individual is supported by data, experience, and “best practices” that have been developed and proven over time.

Occupational therapists and occupational therapy assistants focus on “doing” whatever occupations or activities are meaningful to the individual. It is occupational therapy’s purpose to get beyond problems to the solutions that assure living life to its fullest. These solutions may be adaptations for how to do a task, changes to the surroundings, or helping individuals to alter their own behaviors.

Thank you for AOTA for that helpful information (2010).

Owl Necklaces Fan-Mail 2-15-2010

I hope that everyone had a wonderful Valentine’s Weekend.  I have not posted fan-mail in a while so I thought I would share some in the next few days.  The following customer ordered owls for her daughters to remember her son that passed away.  The owls were and are currently a family favorite…..

Dear Deb,
I got the package yesterday.  I was so touched that you included a necklace for me.  That is incredibly sweet.  I can’t wait until they get them on Valentine’s Day.  I am wearing my Owl pin today.
Best,
Donna
Dear Donna,
It was my pleasure to include an extra owl necklace.  That was my gift to you…. I appreciate my customers and like to give back when I have a chance.  I realize that I cannot give free owl necklaces to all my customers, but when I can, I do.
Take care,
Deb

Valentine’s Day Shipping FAQ’s Owl Necklaces 2010

Dear Owl Necklaces Fans,

For those of you looking for an owl gift for your Valentine’s Day sweetie…..please remember each necklace is handmade.  I do my best to make each necklace within 24-48 hours but I cannot guarantee shipping through the USPS.  If you would like your owl necklace by Saturday, Feb. 13th… I recommend using one of the following shipping upgrades.

1.  Priority mail shipping (2-3 night shipping)

2.  Express mail shipping (fastest delivery option through USPS)

3.  If you prefer a different shipping option such as Fedex please e-mail debzeitlin@gmail.com for a price quote.  I’m happy to ship using other methods for those of you who prefer other mail carriers.

Thanks and happy shopping.  Hoot, Hoot, Hoot!

Days away….

Dear Owl Necklaces Fans,

We are just days away from Valentine’s Day.  If you are still looking for a great gift…. I have many recommendations.  I’m not blogging today to tell you about all of my cool owl gifts though…. instead I’m posting some pictures of my sister.  She attended the Annie Awards in LA and I thought you might be interested in some of her pictures.  Not many of us,get to attend award ceremonies in LA so let’s all live through my neat sister for a few minutes :)
