TERMS - THE WHITE ORCHID

ORDER TIMELINE

Our company handcrafts most orders within 3 days.

Birthday calendar orders are an exception to the rule. These are usually shipped 1-2 weeks after the order is finalized. Shipping details and timelines are estimated for each order.

Often, orders process faster than that but we can’t guarantee a faster processing time.

MADE-TO-ORDER versus PRE-MADE

Check a listing carefully to understand if a product is pre-made and ready to ship or if the product is ordered before it’s handmade.
Both are handmade but the pre-made is shipment ready while the made-to-order products take 1-2 WEEKS to be created for you.

HANDMADE DISCLAIMER

The product(s) you receive might vary slightly from the product picture due to the nature of your product(s) being 100% handmade to order.
