5 out of 5 starsThey were bigger than I expected so use her lovely videos to size the jewelry! I do need an exchange but Taylor's been excellent and really helpful. So excited to wear them!

5 out of 5 starsThe earrings were a little lighter than I was expecting, but they are super cute none the less. I think they will make a wonderful present for my book loving sister.

Shop policies
The majority of my jewelry is handmade-to-order and my current creation time could be up to 5 business days. Many of my items will ship much quicker than this, but please be aware that it may take me some time to have it finished. If you need something quickly, please contact me before you order so I can ensure that I meet your deadline. Most earrings will ship in 1-2 days.
Accepted payment methods
Returns and exchanges
I gladly accept returns and exchanges
I don't accept cancellations
The following items can't be returned or exchanged
- Custom or personalized orders
- Perishable products (like food or flowers)
- Digital downloads
- Intimate items (for health/hygiene reasons)
Returns and exchange details
A few standard policies:
Most of jewelry is shipped Priority Mail with tracking and insurance. If your item is lost or damaged by the postal service, I will file an insurance claim on your behalf. Once the claim has been settled (generally this takes 25-30 days), I will issue you a refund for your order or I will replace the item for you (if I have the supplies to make another). Please note that if the item is listed as delivered by the Postal Service, I am unable to file a claim and cannot refund your order. Please ensure that packages can be stored safely and securely at your location. Priority Mail does not require a signature, but please contact me if you would like that option and I can set up a custom listing for you.
I am happy to make adjustments to your items if you order the wrong size (for example a necklace that is too short or too long), however I will ask for you to cover shipping both ways. I will return ship Priority Mail, which is generally $5.50.
I make every effort to pack my items securely, but occasionally an item may arrive damaged. If this happens, I will happily repair your item and will pay shipping charges both ways. If you wish to return the item, I will pay for return shipping and refund you when the item is received. Refunds are issued only with the return of the item.
REFUNDS:
If you are unsatisfied with your purchase for any reason, then you may return it within 5 days for a refund of the purchase price, minus a 15% restocking fee (50% for custom orders). I ship all of my items with tracking, so I will use the delivery date to determine the timeline. I recommend that you re-ship with tracking and insurance. If I do not receive your package, I will be unable to issue a refund. From 5-15 days, you have the option to exchange your item for another or receive store credit for future purchases, however I will request that you pay for shipping for the new item. Please note that I do not refund or cover shipping either way for a return or exchange, unless of course the error is mine. After 15 days I do not accept returns or exchanges.
Again, it is my goal for you to love your experience shopping with me, so please let me know if there is anything I can do to improve the experience.
Payment
Shipping
INTERNATIONAL CUSTOMERS: I have had a couple of people tell me that they had to pay import taxes on their items. Please note that I will not cover or refund you for these import charges if they are assessed on your item. Please check with your country's postal service to determine if any additional charges will be levied on your purchase. In addition, please do not ask me to falsify the value of the items I am shipping on customs forms. Customs forms will be listed with the full value only.
Additional policies and FAQs
For custom orders, I ask for a 50% non-refundable deposit at the time that the order is placed. Once I have completed your jewelry, hat or bonnet, I will post pictures for you to see and will ask for the remaining balance. Once your item is completed, you have 30 days to purchase the custom listing. After 30 days, your item will be offered up for general sale and your deposit will be forefeited.
