We have glitter on many of our products. If there is an option on any item to "seal the glitter" it means that a sealant will be placed over the glitter so that it does not flake off.

Our shop business hours are from Monday-Friday 8am-5pm CST. Customer service after business hours will be at the sole discretion of the owner and its employees but not guaranteed. We can get super busy around the shop so please allow 24-48 hours for your email/questions to be answered.

Yes, we do offer rush design. You can select this option from the listing itself or from our separate listing. Rush fees will vary depending on the item. Please choose the correct rush fee for your item.
Purchasing a rush design will expedite the design process for your item only but it will NOT speed up your ship time. We offer shipping upgrades if you need a faster ship time. Please note that although ship times are usually accurate these are still estimates and not guaranteed. Try to place your order in enough time to arrive by your event date.

Yes, we do offer wholesale accounts on a select variety of our items. Please contact us for more info.

We mainly ship all items first class with USPS. Lantern purchases will always ship USPS priority. Express/Overnight shipping is preferably shipped with FedEx.
We are NOT responsible for any lost or stolen packages once your item shows as "Delivered". Shipping issues should then be directed to USPS.com or local post office.

Yes, we are happy to design custom and personalized orders. Please understand that sometimes there may be an extra fee involved depending on the design. It takes time to design and research, gather the materials, allow drying time, pack it and ship it. Every order is different and design times will vary.

We accept returns within the allowed timeframe. Returns are based upon owners discretion. Please be mindful that most of our products are custom and handmade designs. Returns are for STORE CREDIT ONLY. We DO NOT accept returns on packages arriving late from postal delays and weather conditions or orders arriving after the party. Please plan ahead and allow time for delays. Thank you for your understanding.

If your package was successfully delivered and then stolen from your porch, you have a couple of options.
For USPS deliveries, you can file a mail theft complaint with the U.S. Postal Inspection Service. USPS will start your claims process. Reach out to your local police department to notify them of the theft.
Tips to prevent package theft:
-Add a security camera like Ring Video Doorbell. With Ring’s two-way talk, you can tell your courier where to hide your packages or warn pirates they are on camera.
-Have your packages held for pickup at your local post office if you know you will not be at home.
-BoxLock is a smart lock maker that has worked with carriers to secure packages. The lock itself has a barcode scanner built in.

Our jellyfish lanterns take 1-2 weeks to design. (Business days ONLY Mon-Fri) This does NOT include your ship time. If you are ordering 3 or more lanterns your order ships priority. Please allow for the maximum amount of design time and be mindful of holidays and weekends.
If you need your lanterns BEFORE the two week design time purchase the rush design fee with your order. This will speed up your design time to 2-3 business days.
We DO NOT accept returns on orders arriving late or after the party. We expect the customer to order in advance and allow time for any delays.
If you have any questions please send us a message and we will be happy to answer.
