My current processing times vary! It depends on the items! I’ve tried to be as prepped for the holidays as I can, and have ready to nearly ready a few of the most popular things to get them out to you promptly! My processing times vary from 1-10 days for things I have nearly ready, and 2-3 weeks for more customized items that require complete making. I do of course, do my best to get things out sooner than my processing times! If there’s a specific date you need something for, feel free to reach out and ask about a certain item! Sometimes I have some of the more customizable elaborate pieces pre-made with specific settings/hoops/sizes, and can get those out immediately if they fit your needs! Many thanks to everyone for such an incredible year <3
If you happen to order multiple times and your first order hasn't shipped, please message me to combine your orders! It saves on packing materials/shipping waste, and I refund the extra shipping so its better for you and the planet! <3
International SHIPPING!
Due to the current pandemic, and the serious delays caused by the USPS system, and the lack of international flights for parcels holding up international packages, all international orders are seeing significant delays. Please be aware that international small packet, the default international option, is taking 6-8 weeks.

Meteorite gems, fragments and stardust abound! Have something in mind but you don't see it? Contact me for a custom listing! I can create anything under the sun!

5 out of 5 starsFirst off, the packaging was awesome! Between the really cool envelope to the designer mesh bag and the box that the ornament came in, it was like unwrapping my own present! The ornament is PERFECT - the downside is my kid is going to be super upset it's not the real thing!!!! LOL!! Shipping was fast and I will definitely be buying from this shop again!!! THANK YOU!!!!!!!

This is my Maker Space! Shelves of supplies, bins upon bins, and my best friend and demanding office cat,Jack.
How it happened -
The Slug and Kraken came to life in early 2014, after I discovered the art form of Polymer Clay while playing with the kids I nannied. The pliant, colorful, 3D nature of the clay was a new and stirring form I quickly became obsessed with! Focusing on my passion for underwater life, many of the creations I produce are inspired by the weird and wonderful world beneath the waves, such as my first creation ever, The Noble Sea Lemon Nudibranch. Many pieces are intended to reflect and bring awareness to the beautiful, but fragile worlds of the ocean. In 2017 I began to dabble in resin, which allowed me an oceanic transparency and lightness of materials that clay could not. As such, many of my original works have become the base of stronger, lighter, beautifully glass-like, durable resin pieces. When I moved to Florida in 2018, I discovered the Mermaiding Community and my ocean-loving soul found exuberance in finally living a life-long dream of being a mermaid. So you see, every piece of treasure from The Slug and Kraken is made by a Mermaid. Weird is Wonderful!

Returns and exchange details
Now and then, accidents do happen.
If your items arrived damaged we must act quickly to fix the issue!
I am glad to help make the return/recovery process as easy as possible, and to do this I will require a few things!
First photo's! I need photo's of the damaged items, and the packaging of the damaged items so don't throw anything away! After receiving pictures I may want to create a return label for you to send them back to me, but we may decide on another course of action.
Once I get photo's from you so I can make a postal claim, I will issue you a replacement if the item can be replaced or a refund if the item is not replacable.
Delivery
I am not responsible for any taxes, duties or charges on receiving packages for any international orders.
INTERNATIONAL BUYERS - Please be aware of any tariffs and charges you might incur on your end when you receive your item! These can sometimes be a surprise, but they are import duties placed on the package by customs and the responsibility of the purchaser to remit.
If you don't see your country as an option in shipping, please feel free to message me to see about international shipping options to your country.
Current shipping times are greatly delayed because of the pandemic, so package transit times are longer than they usually are!
UNITED STATES: Typically first class is taking 4-10 day’s, but I’ve had packages get stalled for weeks and then move again!
INTERNATIONAL:
Usually packages only take a few weeks; but because of the delay on international flights from the US to other destinations shipping is taking much longer! It’s common to see 6-8 week (or longer!) shipping delays currently.
