Buying from me

Before you buy, get in contact. I’d love to chat to you about what you would like. You can contact me via the contact form on this site or email me [email protected] 

I will quote a price and how long it will take for me to make your cute creature.

I send all items by Royal Mail, second class.  Please get in contact first if you would like to upgrade the postage or are outside the UK for a postage quote.

 

Materials and safety

I use 100% wool felt which meets European Toy Standards and carries the Oeko-Tex ‘confidence in textiles’ mark, which means it contains no harmful chemicals. Wool felt is soft but durable and I carefully stitch it so my items should be robust. Some of the smaller felt parts are glued on. I use 100% polyester stuffing which conforms to BS1425, BS5852, EN71, which are fire safety regulations.

All my items have been carefully handmade and are perfect as décor but they are NOT toys or suitable for young children and have NOT been CE tested for toy safety.

 

Postage and packaging

I send everything Royal Mail, second class, which aims to deliver within 3 working days, however from time to time there may be postal delays. Please order in plenty of time especially during busy times (like Christmas). Parcels going overseas can be held up in customs once they arrive in your own country.

I use recycled and recyclable postal packaging. The poly-envelopes I use can be recycled with plastic bags.

 

Returns

I want you to be happy throughout your purchase. If you change your mind or decide to cancel an order please let me know as soon as possible. My made to order items are non-refundable, if you have any problems at all just get in contact with me to discuss it.
