We’re so sad to get word this week that two of our favorite web shops are shutting their doors. On the upside: Deep discounts for you.

Brittain’s Betty Joy, one of our favorite stops for fun little handmade gifties is selling all of their accessories, childrens toys and jewelry at crazy low prices – check out the tea towels for £4.50.

Then my neighbors at Greenjeans Brookyn (ack, this one kills me!) are shutting their doors at least until the God of Bear Markets passes over and moves on. All of their spectacularly curated artisan and sustainable items are 40% off with prices going down to 75% as the days go on. The Arborio bag we recently reviewed is now $185, Frank Ridley’s handsome handmade doll cradle is $45 and all the artisan jewelry is reduced too–grab those awesome Lisa Crowder sterling cufflinks for $46 (shown) and save them for Fathers Day.

The Greenjeans blog remains. That’s entirely free. –Liz

Check out the incredible sales at Betty Joy
through April 5, and Greenjeans Brookyn through April 12.
