6. Shipping Policy

Similarly, shipping times may be dependent on the product/type of product you order. See below for more information.
Can I Combine Orders?
Yes, orders can be combined so long as neither order has already shipping. However, I will not assume separate orders to the same person/address should be combined in case that is done so intentionally. If you leave a note on a subsequent order, I may not see it in time to combine separate orders. Please be sure to contact me at sarah@sarahwoodartandphotography.com to request a combination.
Shipping Packaging
- Unframed Prints
- Art and photography prints sized at 8" x 10" (20.32 cm x 25.4 cm) or smaller will be shipped in their regular packaging (cellophane bag and cardboard backing) inside a cardboart flatmailer with an added piece of cardboard on top of the print for support. A "Do Not Bend" sticker will be included for added protection as your print(s) goes through the mail.
- Art and photography prints larger than 8" x 10" (20.32 cm x 25.4 cm) will be rolled with tissue paper and packaged in a thick cardboard tube. These prints will need to be flattened upon taking them out of the tube.
- If you order a larger number of prints and/or a mix of sizes/framed/unframed prints, the packaging may differ to best protect your prints.
- Framed Prints:
- Art and photography framed prints are not currently available to be shipped, although I hope to offer them in the future. I do, however, sell framed prints at local in-person events. I'm sorry for any inconvenience this may cause.
- Bookmarks:
- Art and photography tassel bookmarks will be packaged in cellophane and shipping in a cardboard flat mailer. A "Do Not Bend" Sticker will be included for added protection as your bookmark(s) goes through the mail.
- The number of bookmarks and/or other items included in your package may influence the packaging used to protect your bookmark(s).
- Stickers:
- The number/type of sticker(s) ordered will decide the packaging.
- Most stickers will be sent in a cardboard flat mailer, unless shipping with other types of products. A "Do Not Bend" sticker will be included for added protection as your sticker(s) goes through the mail. For additional protection, your sticker(s) will be wrapped in cellophane and/or tissue paper.
- Earrings:
- Epoxy resin stud and dangle earrings will be shipped in their standard packaging (cellophane/organza bags depending on the earring design).
- Each packaged pair will be shipped inside a bubble mailer or box depending on the number of earrings/type of other products purchased.
Shipping Time
- In-stock Items: All packages for in-stock items can be expected to ship within 1-2 weeks' time (7-14 days). Most will ship within a week's time. The goal is always to get your purchase(s) in your hands as soon as possible.
- Please note that the shipping date is the timeframe for an item to be dropped off at the post office. The time it takes for packages to be processed at the post office is dependent on the post office's schedule.
- Commissions: If you are commissioning a product, your shipping time will depend on the time necessary to make your commissioned piece. An estimated timeline for your commissioned piece will be discussed with you prior to purchase, and updates will be provided throughout the process to discuss any changes to the timeline, or other pertinent details.
