Most of my items unless otherwise stated require 2-3 weeks to be created BEFORE shipping. All domestic orders will be shipped with delivery confirmation through paypal. You should plan on your order taking the FULL turnaround time.

Obviously I can't start making items unless I know what size to make them so the turnaround time starts when I receive payment, size and any other information I need to start the order. I try my best to catch if someone forgets include size/color info but I am very busy with all the other aspects of the business so sometimes it takes me until I'm ready to start the item to notice.

If you need anything faster please send me a note BEFORE placing your order to see if I can do a rush order to make your special date.

Also remember that I do have a Ready to Ship section for last minute buying.

If you desire to upgrade your shipping to priority mail most orders will fit in a flat rate envelop let me know and I can quote you for the upgrade

●Planning●
I recommend ordering as early as possible regardless of the time of year but especially during my Halloween season. Please note that my busiest time is from September to Halloween. If you hope to order costumes during this time please see the individual listings for the time frame (they often take longer than 3 weeks because my orders increase sometimes 300% of my normal load during the rest of the year).

● Rush Order ●
At times I offer to rush orders for a fee. The majority of the rush fee covers bumping the order ahead of orders that have already place (basically getting it to the post office it faster than the 3 weeks BEFORE shipping turnaround time). A small portion goes to upgrading the shipping. I have no control after I drop it off so the rush covers me sending it on the agreed upon date with the agreed upon mode of post. In the unsual case that the post office does something weird I cannot be held responsible. THere will be no refund given for the rush since I will have already rearranged my schedule to get the order out and since the post office will not refund the cost of shipping.

●Changes●
If you change your order after it is placed (size, color, anything) expect delays. It gets VERY confusing to manage. I may have to charge for changing the order and I do charge a cancellation fee (see below) so it is best to make sure your are certain about your order when placing it. Changes (even small ones) take extra time and effort to keep the old and new and correct information straight. Please take the time to read the listing so you can properly judge what size to order BEFORE placing your order.

●Cancellations●
Please do not purchase an item if you do not intend to pay for it or might change your mind. If you wish to cancel your order after payment is received, through no fault of mine, but your failure to read the listings/announcement/policies, there will be a $5 per item cancellation fee deducted from your payment refund. Please only ask to cancel refunds within a few days of placing orders. It is very rude and frustrating to have someone ask to cancel an order after I have spent my time fulfilling their order and using up my supplies to make it with their size, color, etc. specifications in mind.

● Carrying My Products ●
After one too many bad experiences I no longer accept wholesale orders. Please do not sell my items without prior written permission.

● Bigger Sizes ●
Most of my items come in sizes 0-3 months all the way up to 3T. Some of my dresses (like the Fancy Nancy dress) come in larger sizes. If you are only seeing a few ready to ship sizes please read the above paragraph. If you like something but need a bigger size I would love to help you. With a few measurements I can make larger items via special order and I have standard measurements up to size 7 (but I prefer to work from measurements. Just convo me and let me know what you are interested in and I will do my best to accommodate you.

● Gift Certificates ●
Purchasing
If you would like to purchase a gift certificate just convo me the amount that you would like to give and whether or not you would like a paper certificate mailed or simply an e-mailed gift certificate (for you last minute shoppers). Please include an email address for me to send a paypal invoice to. After receiving the convo I will send you a request for money. After I receive payment I will either snail mail the gift certificate out immediately or email the recipient the details of your gift. I will also send you a confirmation email. This Gift Certificate will be valid only in my Etsy shop, and is only redeemable here

Redeeming
To redeem a gift certificate it is best for you to have an Etsy account. They are free, quick and very good about privacy. Then simply “purchase” the item you desire, checkout, select other payment and write your gift code and any other information in the message to seller section. If you buy more than your gift certificate is for I will send you a revised invoice to your email address to complete your order. If you do not use up your gift certificate I will mark it in my records and you are welcome to use the balance towards a purchase at any future time. If you have any more questions feel free to convo me.

● Feedback ●
I try to leave feedback when I can but it is very time consuming and I've found that many costumers buying these as gifts rather not have feedback. That being said I am happy to leave feedback if it is important to you. If you would like feedback just let me know and I'm happy to leave it after I have shipped the item and confirmed it has been delivered.
