In memory section
All messages need to be via Etsy so that we have a continuing record of our correspondence. If you can see the messages, I can see them. Always respond to me by using the text box immediately below the previous message.
For your convenience, there are three options for expediting that will guarantee quicker delivery of most orders. Some orders cannot be expedited due to the availability of specialty papers. PLEASE NOTE: there are higher expedite fees for invitations because we generally incur expedite fees from our suppliers.
Note: I do not make money on the expedite fees. The fee pays for my assistant(s) to come in on unscheduled workdays.

Paper Choices for Fans (and description):
I have the following choices:
90lb standard white matte - the most popular due to the price. They are functional as fans but are not luxuriously stiff like the upgrades. People tend to hold them like they would any other type of "program" to fan themselves. Slightly cupping then. I very very rarely get any complaints on this stock, probably because the price is fantastic.
100lb shimmery cardstock - stiffer than the 90lb. These are stiffer than the above, and I have NEVER gotten any complaints on the stock - it is stiff, upscale, and very pretty.
100lb matte cardstock - stiffer than the 90lb. Moderately stiff (not quite as stiff as the shimmery but very close).

2 out of 5 starsThe description states, “project instruction and parts list” is included. Parts list, yes. Instructions of any sort, no. There is no mention of fabric or how to make the fabric part of the booth. In the supplier PDF there is a link to a sold out supplier of oil cloth but no mention of how much fabric is needed per booth. The photos show an awning style cover but the PDF of parts makes NO mention of a covering. If you don’t want a double booth with three connecting booths you’ll have to figure out your own parts list. A single booth parts list is provided. Overall, this is not worth $30. If all the calculations were done for you, which I expected, yes. But the limited information provided can be found online for no cost. There are free videos online I’d recommend over this listing.

I am sorry that you were frustrated with counting the number of fittings you need and didn't want to reach out for help or clarification, which I offer every customer. This is cut & pasted from my listing: "Games and striped material are not included in these plans. The plans are only for construction of the PVC frames and required fittings. If you have more questions after purchasing, please message me through Etsy and I will be happy to answer them!" I include links/tips about the material as a convenience for customers, but the listing is specifically for the PVC frames. Any additional information is a courtesy. There are instructions on what to order and the diagrams show exactly how the booths are assembled, each part is labeled. There is also a parts list with links.

1 out of 5 starsPaper not thick enough to be an actual fan.
Sondra responded on Mar 7, 2023
I am super transparent in the posted cardstock descriptions to avoid surprises. She ordered the budget-priced fans on standard cardstock and wanted the fans redone on the upgraded cardstock once she received them. Unfortunately, I cannot upgrade an order free of charge. The standard cardstock description in the listing states: 90lb standard white matte - the most popular due to the price. They are functional as fans but are not luxuriously stiff like the upgrades. People tend to hold them like they would any other program to fan themselves, slightly cupping them.
