5 out of 5 starsPaper stars are gorgeous, they are exactly what I was hoping for. The seller really went out of her way to make sure of that. Fabulous customer service, thank you! I loved them so much I ordered more.

1 out of 5 starsNot only is this item not as described. I purchased this twice as you can see from my last review, she claimed to have shipped my custom order but never did. took a month and a half to receive an item that says 6-9 days. This seller has been berating me via message calling me the c word and consistently harassing me because i wrote "thank you i received the order". not sure what interpersonal issues she is having at the moment and im sure she will write something to the contrary but I will gladly include screenshots of the conversation if she responds in contrary bc she and I both know she clearly lied about shipping out my item and about the specifics. i dont get it what happened to honesty and humanity. There is no exaggeration when I say worst customer service experience of my life, I did her a favor purchasing a second time

1 out of 5 starsI was told by Ana to reread the listing that was custom made for me about processing time. 6-9 days. placed the order/confirmed artwork on the 7th. Still have yet to receive order, Ana was hurt at work which is understandable. Though at the point she let me know she was pushing my order back the order should have been completed. Fast forward asking about shipping as tracking shows a label was only created not appearing as though it had been scanned and left at the facility; as someone who has worked in shipping and logistics I'm quite familiar with tracking norms. says she's canceling shipping over the package she had no control over? interesting. terrible experience for someone who was understanding over her order being late and paying for expedited shipping. terrible attitude.

This feedback is an outlier amongst my many 5 star reviews. Absolutely everything I make is made with the utmost care and attention to quality and is made to order. I feel at peace with her review since I can walk away knowing I did my very best regardless of her challenging nature. She is quite tenaciously entitled. I feel wiser for having had this experience. For that I am grateful.

I call myself a conduit rather than a creator. These things come to me in flashes; sudden, bright and very real. Like how the Ancients believed the genius to be a separate entity. I hold that very dear and close to me.

I couldn't do it without my other brain! We've been together since 2004 and married in 2016. He helps me clarify my visions, find what I cannot see, declutter what I have cluttered and gives me the oh so necessary critiques for each of my listings.

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders
Once I know what I am making for you, I will set up a personalized listing for you for either the full purchase price with expected date of shipment or, if you prefer, I can set up a listing for half the full price and then the other half will be paid when it is ready to ship.
These orders cannot be returned or canceled once I start the work.
If you want to be sure the design is what you are envisioning prior to the item being completed, I can set up a listing with an agreed upon amount which will pay for my supplies and my time to produce a sort of mock up:
If you require several of one item, I will make one for your approval
If you are requesting a custom wrapping paper design, I will make a partial piece for your approval
Custom Star Lanterns & Star String Lights
These stars can be made in a multitude of sizes, colors and, if you are looking for a string of lights, lengths of strings.
They can be made to almost any desired specification!
To see some examples of the truly limitless possibilities for customization, please click on the following link to see my DIY Paper Star Lantern Wedding Project album on Facebook

Rush Orders
If you need an item in a hurry, please send a message including:
- Item desired
- Street Address
- Date Needed By
Within the day, I will figure shipping costs and create a custom listing with aforementioned shipping price and a slight up charge for the rush, usually 20% of the item's price.
Wholesale availability
Most of my items are available for wholesale. Please send me a message to inquire.
LANTERN LIGHTING options
Depending on what you are buying these for, there are several options for lighting my star lanterns. Accordingly, price/budget is also a determining factor.
For large events, I highly recommend a variety of stringed options. All but one of my strings are battery operated for easy hanging. This is key when either hiring someone what they'll charge or to do it yourself.
Single lanterns for an event, I do have what are called LED throwies. These remain brightly lit for up to 2 weeks, sometimes longer allowing far in advance set up. These are the cheapest and most reliable option.
Also, I can offer a chandelier piece of stars in scattered sizes and heights so you only have one item to hang though it will still appear full and bountiful.
EXPECT VARIATIONS
The materials I use for my listing photos are not always readily available. EXPECT slight variances in each Made To Order item. If I cannot find the exact same materials, I will recommend via photos similar materials and await your approval if you wish.
Remote Controlled LED's for Star Lanterns
I offer 3 kinds of Remote Controlled LED Lights:
Option 1 - 10 LED Cool White, all lights face downward
Option 2 - 12 LED Cool White with 360° lighting
Option 3 - 10 LED Color Changing, color can be set, can fade between shades or set on white
All of these lights run on ×3 AAA batteries (which I will include); Remotes operate on ×1 CR2032 battery (also included)
Please add a Note at checkout or Message after checkout as to which LED you would like. If you do not specify, I will send lanterns with Option 1.
