Frequently asked questions
The things people ask most before ordering.
How much does a custom order cost?
Pricing depends on the item and how much personalisation it needs. As a guide: small items like keyrings and coasters usually run from around R15–R40, everyday drinkware and apparel like mugs and t-shirts are typically R60–R180, and larger or more detailed pieces can go up to around R400. Exact prices are shown on each product in the shop — message Ilse on WhatsApp if you'd like a quote for something custom.
How do I place an order?
There's no account or online payment needed. Browse the shop, add what you want to your cart with your chosen options, and check out — this puts together a full, itemised order that opens straight in WhatsApp. Ilse confirms the details and arranges payment with you directly from there.
Do I pay online, or through the website?
No payment is collected or processed on this site. Once Ilse confirms your order on WhatsApp, she'll arrange payment with you directly. If you need a formal tax invoice, just ask for one when you confirm your order.
Do you deliver, or is it collection only?
Both. Orders can be delivered nationwide across South Africa via courier, or collected by arrangement if that suits you better. Delivery timelines are given at the time you order, since they depend on the item and courier.
Can I return or get a refund on a personalised item?
Because everything is made to order and personalised to you, personalised items don't qualify for the standard cooling-off return period that applies to off-the-shelf goods. That said, if something arrives damaged, faulty, or materially different from what you ordered, you're covered for a repair, replacement or refund — just get in touch as soon as you notice.
Can I use my own photo, design or a name on my order?
Yes — most products are personalised with names, photos, wording or designs you provide. You'll need to have the right to use whatever you ask us to include, since we can't knowingly print something that infringes someone else's trademark or copyright.
Will the colours match exactly what I see on screen?
Very closely, but not pixel-perfect — screens display colour differently to printed or engraved materials, so a small variation in colour, placement or finish between what you see on screen and the finished piece is normal and not a fault.
