Our prices are dependable and we’re working hard to keep them stable. We’re building Baa Stool to be a sustainable small business that can keep making beautiful things in the UK and give you the service you expect for many years to come.
So this year, we won’t be joining in with Black Friday discounts.
Why we’re doing things differently
I don’t need to tell anyone that costs are rising.
We can all see it in our everyday lives, and as a small business we’re seeing exactly the same thing.
The cost of sheepskins, timber, upholstery materials, energy, packaging and simply running a workshop has all increased.
Behind the scenes, we’re working incredibly hard to absorb as much of that as we reasonably can and keep our prices as stable and reliable as possible.
For me, it’s really important that Baa Stool is built to last - not just the things we make, but the business itself.
Fair pricing all year round
We’d much rather offer fair, dependable pricing throughout the year and have never built large promotional discounts into our prices so they can be dramatically reduced for a few days in November.
That means when you see the price of a Baa Stool, a pouffe, a rug or one of our chairs, you can shop knowing that we’re trying to keep that price as honest and consistent as we can.
We know buying a piece of furniture is often something you think about for a while. We want you to feel confident that you don’t need to wait for one particular weekend of the year before placing your order.
Protecting the things that matter
Making sensible decisions about pricing means we can continue to:
Keep our workshop here in North Wales busy.
Look after our small team and reward them fairly.
Use the quality materials we believe in.
Make our pieces properly rather than cutting corners.
And continue providing the kind of personal service that earns us so many lovely 5-star reviews.
Those things matter enormously to us.
We would rather protect the quality of what we make and the experience we give our customers than chase a few days of heavily discounted sales.
Every order is important
When you choose to buy from Baa Stool, you’re supporting more than just our workshop.
You’re supporting our team here in North Wales, the people and businesses we buy from, and the makers and suppliers who help us do what we do.
Every order genuinely matters, and we never take that for granted.
We want Baa Stool to be here making beautiful, slightly bonkers things for a very long time.
Decisions like this are part of making sure that happens.
Thank you, as always, for supporting us.
Love,
Michelle and Team Baa x
New to Baa Stool?
If this is your first order with us, you can join the flock and enjoy free UK delivery on your first purchase by subscribing below.
It’s our little way of saying hello - and you’ll also be first to hear about new Workshop Drops, Ready-Made pieces and all the latest from the flock.
Something to look forward to in January
If you do love a bargain, there will still be something to look forward to.
In January, we’ll be holding a Ready-Made Event, giving a specially selected collection of Ready-Made pieces, one-offs and previous Workshop Drop favourites a little extra encouragement to find their forever homes.
It will also help us make space in the workshop for everything we have planned for the new year.
More on that nearer the time.
In the meantime...
Christmas is in full swing at Baa Stool, the workshop is busy, and there are plenty of new pieces, Ready-Made finds and Workshop Drops still to come.
