Make sure you know what you are going to get. The description above is not what the seller claims it says. I saw a different photo also.

Refunded the customer because I understood how the listing could be confusing. I also told customer to keep the item. Interesting that after getting item and refund, customer immediately deactivated their account. Things that make you go hmmm.
About
Live an embellished life...
I'm an obsessive maker who used to cut up my mom's sweaters to make doll clothes (I learned to pick the lock when she started locking the door!)
I have a room full of supplies and am happiest when creating. The possibilities fascinate me, and the opportunity to make something unique keeps me going.
Living in NYC gives me access to a wonderful array of neighborhoods with all kinds of goodies. I can be found wandering the streets of Manhattan's fabric district and any little store in all boroughs. I strive for different and keep-worthy, in a time of mass-produced and throw-away.
Nothing beats making things with my hands. Well, maybe being by the beach...and tiramisu, key lime pie, Walking Dead... and wine. Especially cheap wine, I don't discriminate. One day I intend to move near the beach, watch, eat and drink said luxuries and make things all day long. All things are possible with the internet (well, except pouring me some wine, and that's what hubby AND a cabana boy is for)
Yours in embellishingness (yes, it is too a word!)

Shipping
UPGRADE/QUICKER SHIPPING
Please contact me prior to buying if upgraded/quicker shipping options are needed; these incur extra/additional charges that must be pre-paid. If you want it bad enough, I'll try my best to get it to you.
**Please understand that even with express services by the post office, mail still can take 3-4 weeks in international countries due to heightened security measures at customs; courier shipping is available (FEDEX, UPS) but bear in mind that those incur brokerage fees in addition to custom fees.
*NOTE*: Custom charges are the responsibility of international buyers. Please make sure that your country does not restrict import on materials in my items before ordering. I will check on my end also, but I may not know. I don't want you to order something that won't reach you and that might be confiscated and/or destroyed.
PACKAGING
I admit, I'm a fool for frippery. That said, I try to keep it simple: your item is wrapped in tissue paper and/or placed in a fabric bag, put in a reusable plastic baggie to protect in case the mailer gets wet, and then popped in a secure mailer.
Additional policies and FAQs
All items are sent gift-ready, in tissue paper and/or a handmade fabric bag.
PRIVACY
Privacy for your purchases is always available. If desired, a generic picture can be listed with the price (s)of the item (s) you are interested in. This service is free of charge, just let me know before-hand. Your information is never shared, sold or otherwise divulged in any way except as may be required by Etsy, Paypal, and/or law.
I am proud to offer a quality product along with impeccable customer service. I am available always for any kind of questions and/or concerns. Please don't hesitate to contact me, and thanks for visiting!
