Current turnaround times are as follows:
⋙ stickers 1-3 business days
⋙ rainbows 5-7 business days
Shipping time varies depending on the destination and chosen shipping method. As a general rule of thumb:
⋙ USPS First Class Letter (how I ship most sticker orders): 1-2 weeks within the United States; 3-5 weeks to Canada
⋙ USPS First Class Package: 3-5 business days
⋙ USPS Priority Mail: 2-5 business days
More to know on USPS First Class Letter mail:
↠ Etsy partners with a third party (Pitney Bowes) to provide tracking for First Class letters shipped within the United States. This tracking is less comprehensive than standard tracking for packages, and a mail piece may be marked “Delivered” when it arrives at the destination post office.
↠ Sticker orders (1 ounce or less) to Canada are mailed with a First Class International Global Forever stamp, thus are NOT tracked. You can upgrade to tracked shipping for an additional cost.

Keychain manufacturers
United States
I partner with manufacturing companies to produce keychains made with my original artwork. This enables me to focus on what I do best - design - while leaving production up to professional keychain manufacturers with the appropriate equipment.

Sticker manufacturers
United States
Partnering with professional sticker manufacturers means you can put your stickers anywhere without having to worry about them peeling off or fading. Outsourcing printing and cutting allows me to focus on what I do best - design - while ensuring the end result is a high-quality finished product.

Care instructions
↠ Stickers are waterproof and weatherproof but not indestructible
↠ Stickers are dishwasher-safe; hand-washing is recommended to maintain their longevity and durability
↠ Stickers work great on bikes, car windows, skateboards, and other outdoor items. Like most things, they will fade in the sun over time (typically over 3-5 years)
↠ If you make a mistake placing your sticker, most stickers can be repositioned one more time if they are quickly and carefully peeled off
↠ Stickers may leave light residue when peeled off, which is easily removed with rubbing alcohol or all-purpose cleanser and elbow grease. (Note: do not use rubbing alcohol on plastic or acrylic surfaces)
What are vinyl stickers used for?
Vinyl stickers are a fun way to personalize and decorate just about any smooth, dry surface.
Because they are constructed of layers of vinyl and laminate, they are more durable than standard paper stickers and therefore can be used on more items and more permanent surfaces without risk of peeling or fading.
A (non-exhaustive!) list of places where you can stick your stickers:
↠ laptops
↠ tablet and phone cases
↠ water bottles - including Hydroflask, Yeti, Stanley, and acrylic tumblers
↠ skateboards
↠ cricuts, silhouettes, printers, and sewing machines
↠ containers
↠ notebooks and journals
↠ car windows
Custom orders
⋙ I generally do not have bandwidth to take on custom orders. That said, if you have a suggestion for a sticker design, send me a message. Your idea may do well in my shop, in which case, I’ll create and list it.
⋙ Please take note of my illustration style; I cannot (physically, ethically, and legally) replicate or imitate another artist's design or style.
Sticking instructions
To maximize the longevity of your stickers, follow these instructions to apply:
1. Ensure the surface is smooth and non-porous
2. Clean the surface with soap and water
3. Thoroughly dry the surface
4. Peel the backing off your sticker
5. Triple check that your surface is fully clean and dry
6. Start by applying the center of the sticker to your surface
7. Slowly and gently push and smooth the sticker down and out from the center. This will minimize bubbles and creases.
8. Gently push any bubbles out
