My order hasn't arrived yet. Is it lost?
On rare occasions, USPS will lose mail (even with a tracking number!). While we will try our best to track the location of the package, sometimes the package is simply lost. Upon this situation, we will send a new package.
What is "reduced waste packaging"?
At checkout, you have the option to opt into "reduced waste packaging", which allows us to only use the essential product packaging needed to protect your items. (Eg, no pin paper backings, no canvas bag for custom stamps). For a detailed list of what's excluded for each product, click here.

6. starting a business
What advice do you have for someone starting a small / side creative business?
My biggest piece of advice: just start! You can dream and plan all you want, but it's all in the execution and following through your ideas. Stick through it when you feel discouraged and you'll be surprised at what comes from it :)

I'm so excited to now offer Creative Coaching Calls. Spots open on a quarterly basis.
Where do you get your products printed / made?
Finding partners is definitely a process and with all our products, we always test multiple vendors we find to see the best fit for what we're specifically looking for. I'd recommend reaching out to local vendors to find out more about their factory, process, and prices!
Why don't you do Pickles full time?
I have loved every job I've had; I've learned so many skills in each role (many of which I've applied to Pickles!) and I've met some amazing coworkers and mentors. I admire those who take their creative businesses full-time, but that's not something that has appealed to me more than the corporate 9-5 (at least so far!) in my life.
