We launched Pencil Of The Month back in June as a way to introduce you to exciting and interesting writing utensils that may be new to your pencil cups. It's been great fun selecting each month's special pencil and packaging, and we love to see your excellent photos of subscriptions month after month. 

Despite the joy we know this brings to you and us, we've made a difficult decision about POTM: beginning December 21, 2015, we will no longer accept new subscriptions for Pencil Of The Month. It's simply become too much for us to handle, and we want to allocate our time and pencil resources to offering new and exciting things to our store. We are so sorry for any disappointment this may cause! 

Here are some additional details:

1) If you are a current subscriber (those who have a subscription that currently continues into 2016) and would like to add months on to your existing subscription before POTM ends, we are allowing you to add an additional 6 months to the end of your current subscription. If you'd like to do so, simply purchase the 6 month subscription option and please note when you check out that you are purchasing a subscription add-on. If you do not note that you are purchasing an add-on, we will treat it as a new subscription (which means you'd receive two subscription packages for any overlapping months). Additionally, all one-year subscription purchases will be treated as new subscribers. If you have any questions about this, please email us. 

2) New subscriptions purchased on or before December 21, 2015 will receive their first box in January (please note that due to the New Year's holiday, shipping may be a couple days later than normal). 

We're sad to be ending this but thrilled that we'll have more time to focus on other fun pencil things. Don't worry--we'll be designating a Pencil of the Month still, just in a different format!

Love,
Your Pencil Ladies
