She has been very good about staying out of my fabrics and completed plush, but if you have allergies or intend to give one of my plush to someone with allergies, please keep this in mind before making a purchase!

--------------
Commissions are closed!

My other life as a science fiction and fantasy author is taking up a lot of time on top of working a full-time day job. As such, my sewing time is restricted to weekends only, and I'm afraid I don't have the time to dedicate to commissions right now. You can keep up with me through my personal website, www.knsalustro.com.

I will still make items that have piqued my personal interest, so there should always be something available in the shop. Please take a look if you are interested in making a purchase!

Thank you!!

Privacy

Information I Collect

To fulfill your order, you must provide me with certain information (which you authorized Etsy to provide to me), such as your name, email address, postal address, payment information, and the details of the product that you’re ordering. You may also choose to provide me with additional personal information (for a custom order, for example), if you contact me directly.

Why I Need Your Information and How I Use It

I rely on a number of legal bases to collect, use, and share your information, including:

* as needed to provide my services, such as when I use your information to fulfill your order, to settle disputes, or to provide customer support
* when you have provided your affirmative consent, which you may revoke at any time, such as by signing up for my mailing list
* if necessary to comply with a legal obligation or court order or in connection with a legal claim, such as retaining information about your purchases if required by tax law; and
* as necessary for the purpose of my legitimate interests, if those legitimate interests are not overridden by your rights or interests, such as 1) providing and improving my services. I use your information to provide the services you requested and in my legitimate interest to improve my services; and 2) Compliance with the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use. I use your information as necessary to comply with my obligations under the Etsy Seller Policy and Terms of Use.

Information Sharing and Disclosure

Information about my customers is important to my business. I share your personal information for very limited reasons and in limited circumstances, as follows:

* Etsy. I share information with Etsy as necessary to provide you my services and comply with my obligations under both the Etsy Seller Policy and Etsy Terms of Use.
* Service providers. I engage certain trusted third parties to perform functions and provide services to my shop, such as delivery companies. I will share your personal information with these third parties, but only to the extent necessary to perform these services.
* Business transfers. If I sell or merge my business, I may disclose your information as part of that transaction, only to the extent permitted by law.
* Compliance with laws. I may collect, use, retain, and share your information if I have a good faith belief that it is reasonably necessary to: (a) respond to legal process or to government requests; (b) enforce my agreements, terms and policies; (c) prevent, investigate, and address fraud and other illegal activity, security, or technical issues; or (d) protect the rights, property, and safety of my customers, or others.

Data Retention

I retain your personal information only for as long as necessary to provide you with my services and as described in my Privacy Policy. However, I may also be required to retain this information to comply with my legal and regulatory obligations, to resolve disputes, and to enforce my agreements. I generally keep your data for the following time period: 5 years.

Your Rights

If you reside in certain territories, including the EU, you have a number of rights in relation to your personal information. While some of these rights apply generally, certain rights apply only in certain limited cases. I describe these rights below:

* Access. You may have the right to access and receive a copy of the personal information I hold about you by contacting me using the contact information below.
* Change, restrict, delete. You may also have rights to change, restrict my use of, or delete your personal information. Absent exceptional circumstances (like where I am required to store data for legal reasons) I will generally delete your personal information upon request.
* Object. You can object to (i) my processing of some of your information based on my legitimate interests and (ii) receiving marketing messages from me after providing your express consent to receive them. In such cases, I will delete your personal information unless I have compelling and legitimate grounds to continue using that information or if it is needed for legal reasons.
* Complain. If you reside in the EU and wish to raise a concern about my use of your information (and without prejudice to any other rights you may have), you have the right to do so with your local data protection authority.

Frequently asked questions

Sizing details

Standard dragons are typically 12" long from nose to tail, and stand at about 6"-7" tall. Hatchlings sit at about 6" tall.

Larger or smaller items will typically have their dimensions included on their listing, but if you have any questions about size, feel free to get in touch!

Custom and personalized orders

Embroidery is always a nice option for personalized dragons, and can be purchased alongside Custom Dragon Builders via it's own listing.

If you are looking for a full custom critter, however, that is something that I am able to do! Send me a message with details about what you are looking for, including dimensions. Keep in mind, however, that full custom creations demand their own special pattern, and are therefore a lot more work. They will be more expensive than the other items in my shop!!

Care instructions

If your plush gets dirty, spot clean with cool water. DO NOT submerge in water!! For more care instructions, please refer to this helpful blog post here: http://mom.me/lifestyle/home-diy/5968-how-clean-stuffed-animals/

Are the plushies safe for children?

My plushies are NOT designed with rough play in mind, and are meant more for display and light cuddling only. I machine-sew as much as I can, but there are pieces that must be hand-sewn, and these pieces especially will not stand up to tugging or other rough treatment.

Additionally, if you purchase a plush that includes safety eyes with the intention of giving that plush to a young child, be certain to keep a close watch on how that child interacts with their plush. Cuddling and light play should be fine, but if you notice your child biting or pulling on the eyes, take the plush away IMMEDIATELY. The eyes are secured by a washer backing, but if the fabric around them is torn or bitten through, the eyes can be a choking hazard.

Refunds on orders

If you receive your item and are not happy with it, please return it in the same condition to the return address on the package, and contact with me with the reason for your return. This must be done within 14 days of receiving your item. I will issue a full refund less shipping once the item has been returned to me. Failure to follow these instructions will result in forfeiture of any refund.

Custom orders are NOT refundable.

Allergy concerns?

All of my work comes from a smoke-free, cat-friendly home. All plushies include polyester fiberfill stuffing. They are made from either fleece or minky fabric as noted in their Materials listings, both of which are synthetic polyester fabrics. The cat is very good about staying out of fabrics and finished plush, and items will be inspected for cat hair prior to shipping, but please keep in mind that a cat does live in my home if the intended recipient of your purchase has a severe allergy.

International Shipping & Fees

I ship worldwide, though I am based in the United States. I ship First Class mail to international customers. Shipping time will vary depending on your location.

If you have a particularly large order and / or wish to purchase faster postage or shipping insurance, please get in touch so that we can discuss options and prices. We can also discuss express postage costs if you need an item by a certain date.

International import fees, duties, customs processing fees, VAT or any other fee associated with non-USA orders are not included in the shipping fee and are the responsibility of the recipient.

Gift wrapping and packaging

Gift wrap is NOT available on any orders, due to the odd shapes and sizes of what I make. I can include a printed message, if you would like to include something in the box, but I cannot wrap your purchase for you.
