Customer Care & FAQ
Got Questions? We've got answers with a flair
Welcome to the most entertaining FAQ page you'll read today. We promise to keep it real, keep it fun, and actually answer your questions.
🚚 Shipping & Delivery
How fast will my handcrafted goodies arrive?
Faster than you can say "I need those socks!" Most orders ship within 1-3 business days from our North Carolina studio. Once they're on their way, USPS typically delivers in 3-5 business days. Need it yesterday? We offer expedited shipping at checkout for the impatient (we get it).
Do you ship internationally?
Yes! We're spreading the handcrafted love worldwide. International orders take 1-3 weeks to arrive—think of it as the anticipation that makes the unboxing even sweeter. Good things come to those who wait (and to those who order amazing socks and barefoot sandals from North Carolina).
Can I track my order?
Absolutely! You'll get a tracking number faster than you can refresh your inbox. Stalk your package to your heart's content.
💎 Product Care
How do I care for my handcrafted treasures?
Treat them like the luxury items they are! Our slouch socks love a gentle machine wash in cold water and air drying. For barefoot sandals with rhinestones and lace, spot clean gently and store flat. They're handmade with love in North Carolina, so show them some love back.
💝 Returns & Exchanges
What's your return policy?
We want you to absolutely adore your purchase! If something's not quite right, contact us within 14 days of delivery. Unworn, unwashed items in original packaging can be returned or exchanged. Custom and personalized items are final sale (because, well, they're made just for you).
What if my item arrives damaged?
Oh no! That's not the unboxing experience we want for you. Contact us immediately with photos, and we'll make it right faster than you can say "customer service rocks."
🎁 Ordering & Customization
Can I request custom colors or designs?
You bet! We love a good creative challenge. Reach out through our contact form with your vision, and let's see what magic we can create together.
Do you offer gift wrapping?
Our packaging is already pretty swoon-worthy (we're talking boutique-level presentation), but if you need something extra special for a gift, let us know in your order notes!
📧 Still Have Questions?
We're real humans in a real studio in North Carolina, and we actually read our emails! Reach out anytime, and we'll get back to you faster than you can finish your morning coffee.
