We do offer pick-up from our studio, located in Maple, ON. Select the Pick-up option at check-out and we will arrange a time for you to swing by and grab your order.

How much is shipping and how long will it take?

We use carriers such as Canada Post, Purolator, and Fedex to ship throughout Canada, for a flat-rate shipping cost of $10 or free after $150. Your package will be shipped with a tracking number and should arrive in 2-10 business days. 

My tracking isn't updating but my gift has shipped. What's going on?

Not to worry! If you have received a shipment confirmation email from us, your package is on the way. Sometimes shipping carriers experience system delays and if this is the case, give the system 24 hours to update. Still feel uneasy? Send us an email and we'll provide you with the information on our end!

Our processing times are usually 1-2 days. We strive our best to get your gift out the door as soon as possible! If there are any delays for any reason, we will always be in touch.

Do you ship internationally?

Not currently. However, we have a network of amazing Gift Box Companies across the world so if you need any suggestions, we're happy to guide you in the right direction!

Why don't you offer shipping to the US?

We're working on it! We want to be able to offer the best shipping rates and times before we commit to shipping to the US. There are quiet a bit of FDA restrictions when shipping parcels over the border so bear with us while we figure this next step out.

My order is delayed. What can I do?

Once your gift box is shipped, any delays due to weather, shipping carrier issue, etc. are out of our control. Please be patient, especially during COVID-19, as shipping delays are a worldwide issue. If you still feel uneasy and have questions, contact us and we'll help look into the delay for you.

Do you offer free shipping?

As you may be aware, shipping costs are expensive in Canada and with the rise in material costs, it's hard to truly offer free shipping. As a small business, we don't want to reduce the quality of our products or customer service and we strive to offer the best of the best. However, we do understand the value free shipping presents our clients and are happy to offer free shipping on all orders above $150.


REFUNDS + RETURNS

What is your refund policy?

We aim to ensure your gift arrives looking great and exactly how it was intended. If you are unsatisfied with your purchase, contact us within 7 days of delivery and we will do our best to resolve the issue. Due to the handmade nature of each gift, all sales are final.

Something arrived broken. Can I get my money back?

Oh no! We're sorry to hear something was damaged in transit. Everything that leaves our studio is in perfect condition and sometime shipping carriers are not the most careful (even with the 'FRAGILE' sticker on the box) so your understanding is appreciated. We will gladly offer a solution, ie. shipping out a substitute product.

Do you have any discount codes or sales?

Being a small business and striving to offer high-quality, desirable products, it's difficult to run sales on a consistent basis. We do have an annual Black Friday Sale, which our clients appreciate and helps them get a head start on their Holiday shopping.

If you join our email list, you'll get notified of any exclusive offers and be the first to know of any sale.
