Ok - I did not get the code email and my story kit has not shipped - neither has my DD which is a large order I made within the first minutes of order period. I’m trying to be patient, but it’s starting to wear thin….

I ordered on Oct 5 during the sale AE had, and it still shows as active with no shipping notice. I expect this will be one that just shows up one day.

I’m trying to be patient, but it’s starting to wear thin…. Same! I'm a little concerned about the story kit one, since I ordered one of everything that one could order. So, whatever is delayed, should be delayed for me...yet no email. We'll see. It could all ship today. I will let you all know.

I’m looking forward to the Pieces of Home release tomorrow.
ETA: it does annoy me when there is no preview prior to release tho.

I canceled my Story Kit membership. None of the themes are grabbing me until at least May 2022. The shipping issues aren't going to get resolved anytime soon with the holiday season mailing demand ramping up. I also don't appreciate them not being upfront about the shipping delays prior to taking my money.

With the way things have been lately, I’d put my money on the FB page being correct. Ali seems out of the loop frequently. 🥴

Just came here as well to say it's up--not much up there yet, maybe more will be added: Pieces of HomeI am thinking that I would like for most of my SB purchases to be digital next year to avoid shipping problems. I also have too many physical products. Does anyone here subscribe to the digital Story Class? I like that it is just a month-to-month commitment. I have the Story Kit sub right now, but I would like to pick and choose in the future.

I'll be getting the booklet and stamp, and using the original cover I bought for Pieces of Me. Not thrilled with her handwriting but I'm excited to document our house right now. We have big changes coming in the next year to our home.

Is this the same felt cover that was offered for the Pieces of Me release? Anyone know how many of the TN it will hold?

I got the stamp, 2 books & 2 patches. We bought a new house and we really loved our old house so I have lots of memories from both places to document. I like this project a lot. I wonder if she will expand further. I’ve just been putting the pieces of me in my OLW album for the last two years so far. I don’t care for the felt cover. Too flimsy.

The felt cover is the same as the prior project and the new TN will fit inside of the old cover. She showed them nested together in one cover.

I got an email that my DD order shipped. I'm passing on the Pieces of Home, but might get the pieces of home stamp digital if offered. It wasn't what I was picturing. My Hearth & Home preorder from ACOT will be better for my Pieces Story. (Probably on a container ship somewhere.)

I was just watching the Pieces of Home video on Ali's blog because I think I'm interested in doing this (and also going back and doing Pieces of Me), when I noticed this message underneath the video:
Since we realize that shipping has been challenging this year we put together a simple PDF for you to use in case this notebook doesn't get to you before the documenting week.
She even mentions it in the video and shows the pdf you can print out and use if your supplies don't show up in time since shipping is unpredictable.

I like AE’s stamp set but I found the prompts a little odd. Clean? What would I document? A toilet brush lol. I hate cleaning :/

So I REALLY do not like the new packaging the Story Kits and SBTM kits come in now. The cardboard envelopes are awful! I store my kits in the plastic envelopes so I can see what's in them. How am I supposed to store them in cardboard?
