FAQs
WHERE ARE YOU LOCATED?
In New York. The Fingerlakes Region, AKA Wine Country. Yes Wine Tours are a big thing here and quite the time!
HOW LONG UNTIL MY ITEM SHIPS?
We are personally spoiled by Amazon Prime & know how nice it is to get something quickly. So our goal is to always have your order shipped out between 48 & 72 hours. If we can get it out quicker, you bet we will! Once the shipper has it in their hands, depending on your method of shipping & where you're located. I'd say a week (give or take) is a good estimate in total.
However, if you for instance order late Friday night and we aren't back in the office until Monday or Monday is a holiday; then you'd be looking at the longer ship out time. Even though we like to say we take off weekends for family time. We don't like to keep others waiting, so don't be surprised if you do still hear back from us over the weekend if you ever reach out.
If for any reason a specific item will take longer to get out, we will be sure to note this clearly in the product description. We aren't one of those companies that likes to hide things in the fine print & be sneaky. We have your back!
HOW CAN I GET FREE SHIPPING?
We have searched high and low to find the best possible shipping prices for you. If we could give free shipping to everyone we would, but then we'd have to of course raise the prices of all our items and that's no fun. But we do have it set up so if you spend over $59.99 you can get FREE shipping on your item and it will automatically be triggered during checkout :)
WHERE DO YOU SHIP?
Currently we only ship to the U.S. and Canada. We are trying to explore afordable methods for our customers to be able to ship all around the world!
WHERE ARE THESE ITEMS FROM?
All items you find on our site either fall in one of the following categories:
1) The owner/founder Angela also owns a graphic design business she started in 2013 after her first child was born (a business her son before 1 years old inspired her to create, but that's a story for that business). So she and our team use that talent to make unique one of a kind pieces. You'll see her sense of humor & sarcasm in some of these items too. We make the design, find the product for it and then get a sample. If the sample is up to our standards we then produce that item to sell here :)
We do our best to find items that are also eco friendly. No not all of our items are, but if we can find a way to create something that is, we do!
2) We do a LOT of research in other small businesses and U.S. based companies. Find products we love and then bring them here. This way not only are we providing you with amazing items but helping support other local businesses and shops! So no, we are NOT one of those sites that drop ships item from China & you're not going to get an item for 30-60 days and then it looks nothing like the actual picture. Think we all have fell victim to those types of stores/sellers. UGH!
So yes here you will find products almost always made in the USA, if they are not we WILL also note it in the description. We may even consider soon adding items from the UK, stay tuned for news on that!

ARE ITEMS DISHWASHER SAFE?
Each product will have right on the product page the cleaning suggestions for that specific product. Since we not only custom make our products, but also acquire items from other U.S. businesses, cleaning suggestions will differ for each!
As far as kitchen items being dishwasher safe: some are and some are not! For instance the slate cheese boards/trays. They are dishwasher safe, however we still highly suggest to just hand wash them. They are easily cleaned by hand & our personal belief that is how you will get VERY long use out of them!
As we try to find timeless items. Not only items that won't go out of style next week, but also timeless as in - they will last you a long time :)
