We get it—life is busy, calendars get full, and sometimes you suddenly realise a loved one’s special day is tomorrow.
That’s exactly why we offer a next working day delivery service if you order before 12 noon and select Next Day Delivery. We’ll literally stop what we’re doing, handmake your card that very same day, and send it out via Royal Mail Special Next Day Delivery Service to arrive in time.
But here’s the truth that no one likes to say: things can go wrong.
And when they do—it hurts us just as much as it hurts you.
🌧️ When Things Go Wrong (And It’s Not Our Fault)
We lovingly print, duplex, scent, handmake, personalise, check, wrap, and dispatch every card with precision and care. Once it leaves our studio, it’s in the hands of Royal Mail. And while they do a brilliant job most of the time, they’re still human. Or sometimes, machine. Or sometimes... a broken-down van.
Here are just a few things that have caused delivery delays in the past:
-
A Royal Mail van broke down on the way to the sorting depot.
-
Staff absences at the sorting office caused a backlog.
-
A sorting machine missed scanning a batch and delayed tracking updates.
-
A local depot had a temporary suspension due to severe weather.
We wish we could magic these problems away—but once your card has left us and is en route, it’s completely out of our hands.
🧡 But Here’s What Is in Our Control…
-
We always dispatch your order on time.
-
We check every card to make sure it’s perfect before it leaves us.
-
We refund postage if your next-day order is delayed—even though Royal Mail doesn’t refund us.
-
And most importantly, we care deeply about your experience.
We're a small, heart-led team. We handmake every order with love and urgency—but if you leave it right to the wire, there’s no breathing room for the unexpected.
💡 Our Loving Suggestion?
Order 3–5 days early wherever possible. You’ll save yourself stress, avoid disappointment, and your loved one will still receive something truly special.
Even better GET OUR FREE Special Occasions Planner here so you NEVER MISS AN IMPORTANT OCCASION AGAIN. Don't leave things to the wire. Order with lot's of time. Use this planner to print out and mark all of you important dates. Then order a full week before. Ta daaaa simple!
We’ll still be here for your last-minute moments. We’ll still pull all the stops.
But we also ask for a little kindness and understanding if something goes wrong after your card has left our hands.
From Our Family to Yours
Thank you for supporting a small, independent card company that genuinely gives a damn.
We’re not robots or big corporations—we’re real people who believe in spreading love, connection, and a little magic through paper and perfume.
And we’ll always treat your order with the same urgency and care as if it were our own.
