COSTUME INFO:
**********************************************
This handmade costume features a dimple-dot minky one-piece bodysuit in your choice of color. There is an attached hood with a brim and 4 styrofoam balls inside to mimic the appearance of the candy . Each piece has been carefully chosen and sewn for design, quality, and strength.
**PLEASE NOTE -- Due to some practicality issues, I no longer sew this costume with the little attached foot-flaps. Feedback told me that they were unnecessary and got in the way of walking!

SHIPPING/TURN-AROUND TIME:
**********************************************
If not Halloween season (July-October), most items are shipped within 1-2 weeks. This does NOT include shipping time. If during Halloween season, I will always let you know when the expected ship date is. I normally sew 300+ costumes during Halloween season, so it's crazy! But I have NEVER let a single customer down regarding shipping dates for costumes! If you order your Halloween costume after August, rush sewing fees will start to be applied, starting at $15.00 - $25.00. Please order early for Halloween to avoid any fees!
***PLEASE NOTE: Why rush sewing fees? I have three little children that need their mommy, and I only sew during naps and night time, so my time is worth a lot! During Halloween season, I sew at night from about 8PM-2AM in the mornings. With my 3 little ones to take care of during the day, I will ask for rush sewing fees if ordering after for Halloween AFTER August. I hope all you mommies understand!
If your item weighs less than 1 pound, I use First Class Mail unless you choose Priority at check out. If it weighs more than 1 pound, I always use Priority Mail, which is an insured, tracked USPS service, and normally takes 2-4 days, or less, depending upon where you live. If you need the item rushed, please message me before you purchase to make sure that I can accommodate your request. For items that need rush shipping, I charge a rush-fee of $12.50 - $25.00, depending on how fast you need it, but your rush must be approved first. I always need to check my sewing calendar first. Thanks!
For customers outside the USA, I use USPS First Class Mail, which is not insured, and normally takes 2-3 weeks to deliver.

PERSONAL SHOP POLICIES:
**********************************************
1. I LOVE what I do.
2. I do NOT use patterns. Each costume that I make is hand-drafted and cut. So each costume will look slightly different! And, therefore, I do not have any patterns or instructions to sell.
3. I reserve the right to switch out ANY fabric or trim if it is no longer in stock or no longer made. I try MY BEST to make the costume as it is shown in the picture.
4. I cannot be held responsible for any shipping errors. Once it is scanned in by the postal system, I no longer hold any responsibility.
5. I have FOUR small children and a order traveling husband, so if my order load is full and you need a costume within a strict time period, I will charge an accommodation fee depending on the timeline and costume type.
6. If you purchase a costume, I assume you read this, and agree!
7. If ordering a custom costume (one that I have never made before), I work in the moment. I do not draft before I start cutting and sewing. I try my best to describe beforehand what I am going to try to do, but sometimes in the moment a certain cut, fabric, or trim works better than I originally thought. If you look at all of my work, you can gather what my aesthetic as a designer is. I will normally kindly turn down a custom request if there are too many parameters or strict guidelines as it will normally block my own creativity.
7. Choose kindness.
