FAQ

Everything you need to know about our handcrafted styling pieces that add luxurious, sparkling touches to life's special celebrations.

Our Products & Craftsmanship

Are your products handcrafted?

Our collection features unique handcrafted and hand-finished decorative pieces, thoughtfully designed to add a beautiful touch of sparkle to your celebrations. Individual product descriptions provide further details about each item's materials, design and craftsmanship.

Are all your products handmade in Australia?

Our products are designed and created in Australia and may incorporate a combination of locally and internationally sourced materials and components.

Will my product look exactly like the photograph?

As many of our products are handcrafted or hand-finished, slight variations in colour, shape, embellishment placement and finishing details may occur. These subtle differences are part of what makes each piece unique. We take great care to represent our products as accurately as possible. Please also be aware that colours may appear slightly different depending on your screen settings and lighting.

Are your products reusable?

Many of our decorative products are designed to be enjoyed for more than one celebration. With gentle handling, appropriate care and careful storage, items such as gift toppers, napkin rings, table runners, wreaths, garlands and ornaments can be treasured and reused.

Are your products suitable for outdoor celebrations?

Our decorative products are generally best suited to indoor use unless otherwise specified. Exposure to rain, moisture, wind or prolonged direct sunlight may affect delicate materials, finishes and embellishments.

Product Care & Storage

How do I clean my decorative products?

Most of our embellished decorative products are best cleaned gently using a soft, dry microfibre cloth or a soft-bristled brush. Avoid harsh chemicals, abrasive cleaners and excessive moisture, particularly on rhinestones, glitter, sequins, metallic finishes and delicate fabrics. Please refer to the individual product care instructions for specific guidance.

How should I store my decorations between celebrations?

We recommend storing your decorations in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight. Delicate products should be wrapped individually in soft tissue paper or protective padding and placed in sturdy storage boxes to help prevent scratches, crushing, tangling or damage.

Are your products suitable for children?

Many of our products are decorative items rather than toys. Some designs may contain small embellishments, fragile components or detachable decorations that could present a choking hazard. Please keep delicate decorative items away from young children and always supervise children around candles and breakable ornaments.

Ordering & Delivery

How long will my order take to be prepared?

Order preparation times may vary depending on the products selected and whether any items require additional hand-finishing. Estimated processing times and delivery information should be provided during checkout or in our Shipping Policy.

We take care to package our decorative products appropriately, with particular attention to delicate embellishments, glass and crystal-style ornaments.

Gift Toppers & Gift Bags

Can your gift toppers be reused?

Absolutely! Many of our decorative gift toppers can be carefully removed and reused on another gift or incorporated into your celebration décor. We recommend storing them in a protective box to preserve their shape and delicate embellishments.

How do I attach a gift topper to my gift box?

Depending on the design, gift toppers may be secured using ribbon, suitable removable adhesive or another appropriate fastening method.

Do your gift toppers come with a gift box?

No, only gift toppers are sold in our store. Any gift boxes or additional accessories shown in styling photographs are for display purposes only.

Can your decorative gift bags be reused?

Yes, many of our decorative gift bags can be reused when handled gently and stored carefully. We recommend avoiding excessive weight and protecting delicate embellishments from snagging or damage.

Candles & Candle Holders

Are your decorative candles suitable for burning?

Some decorative candles are designed to be burned, while others may be better suited to display. Please check the individual product description and safety information before lighting.

How long do your candles burn?

Burn times vary depending on the candle's size, shape, wax composition and wick. Where available, an approximate burn time will be included in the individual product details.

Can I use real candles in your decorative candle holders?

Only use real candles in holders that are specifically identified as suitable for open flames. Some embellished designs may be more appropriate for flameless LED candles. Always follow the manufacturer's instructions and never leave a burning candle unattended.

Are candles included with your candle holders?

Candles are not included unless specifically stated in the product description. Please check the product details to confirm what is included with your purchase.

Table Styling & Decorations

Can your napkin rings be used with different napkin sizes?

Our napkin rings are designed to complement a variety of table settings. As sizes and designs vary, we recommend checking the product dimensions to ensure they suit your preferred napkins and styling arrangement.

How do I choose the right table runner?

Consider the length and width of your table, the number of place settings and the overall look you would like to create. For a traditional setting, a runner may extend slightly beyond each end of the table. For a more contemporary look, you may prefer a shorter runner positioned centrally. Please refer to the product dimensions before purchasing.

What can I use your scatter decorations for?

Our scatter decorations are a beautiful way to add sparkle and dimension to dining tables, cake tables, gift displays and celebration centrepieces. They can also be arranged alongside candles, mirrored trays, table runners and other decorative accessories to create a coordinated setting.

Can I mix and match products from different collections?

Of course! Our collections are designed to inspire creativity and personal styling. Mixing complementary colours, metallic finishes, textures and sparkling embellishments can create a beautiful and individual celebration setting.

Wreaths, Garlands & Hanging Ornaments

Can your wreaths and garlands be used all year round?

Many of our wreaths and garlands can be styled for different seasons and celebrations. While some feature festive or seasonal designs, others are versatile enough to complement your home décor throughout the year.

How should I hang my wreath or garland?

We recommend using a suitable hook, hanger or fastening method appropriate for the product's weight and the surface where it will be displayed. Ensure the decoration is securely supported and avoid placing delicate designs in areas exposed to strong wind, moisture or excessive heat.

Are your hanging ornaments suitable for Christmas trees?

Many of our hanging ornaments are ideal for Christmas trees, decorative branches, wreaths and festive displays. For heavier or more delicate ornaments, particularly those featuring glass or crystal-style embellishments, we recommend using a strong, secure branch or hanging display stand.

Are your crystal ornaments fragile?

Crystal and glass decorative ornaments should be handled with care. We recommend displaying them on stable surfaces or secure hanging supports, away from areas where they may be knocked or dropped.
