Eco-Friendly Made to Order
We don't keep any stock and craft everything to order. This effectively eliminates any excess waste and is the most effective way to avoid overproduction (none) and keep our environmental footprint small. We print with eco-friendly water-based inks.
Made to order processing times: 5-7 business days

Tracking
Once your item has shipped you will receive an email with a tracking number for your purchase. Please note that we only provide the tracking when it updates which is usually a few days after it has shipped.
Shipping from the USA to international: the tracking often shows only progress while in the USA and when it arrives. Local countries often do not provide any tracking updates.
Address changes
We cannot be responsible for wrong addresses that are provided to us. Please make sure to check your address and update it before completing the order. Address changes post-purchase are not possible. We often buy the transport to the destination once the item goes into production. In addition, most payment systems require that we ship to the provided ship-to address. In addition, once a tracking code has been created it is attached to the address provided even if it has not been scanned as processed.
The best is to collect the item from the location that was provided.
We ship worldwide and shipping time is different by country.
Where do you ship to?
We ship globally and have many customers in Canada, Europe, and Australia. We have shipped to about 20 countries so far.
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
We are an eco-friendly brand and believe in minimizing waste. For this reason, we make all our items on demand. Depends on the item and where we produce the item. Please read the description of the item.

USA ORDERS
Processing (including crafting):
- From 1-8 business days in non-peak moments and could be up to 10 business days during the year-end holiday.
