FAQS

 COVID19 information:

We appreciate all of your support, especially during these uncertain times. We are still sending packages out within 1-2 business days, however, shipping has been much slower due to COVID-19, especially for international orders. We are following CDC guidelines, and also taking extra precaution and care with each package, and keeping our packaging space extra clean. Stay safe, and be well. Love and light, Evie

I accidentally gave you the wrong address. What should I do?

I accidentally gave you the wrong address, and my order has already shipped. What should I do? 
We usually ship very quickly, so please double check your address before placing your order. If your order has already shipped, please contact your local post office with your tracking number so that they can try to redirect your package. We are always happy to help in any way that we can, but once a package is shipped, the destination of the package is out of our control. If your package is returned to us as undelivered, we would be happy to re-mail it. However, the additional shipping charges are the customer's responsibility.
