Postage & Packaging
Hollystone Designs use Royal Mail and Evri to deliver your goods to your door. All order's will be processed and dispatched within our stated processing time. Our processing time is usually 5 to 7 business days as all our goods are bespoke, personalised and made to order. The dispatch time for each item is the day we will post your item and not the day that you will receive your goods.
All our products are posted out in packaging that has been recycled to limit the impact on the enviroment.
We currently only dispatch to UK addresses due to new EU packaging standards regulations which are too restrictive and expensive for our small business.
Please note that in some countries, products may be subject to import duty. The payment of this duty is the responsibility of the purchaser/addressee.
Orders
When you place an order with Hollystone Designs, you will be asked for your name, address and email address. This data is only used by us in relation to your order, for processing and sending orders and to clarify or communicate any issues surrounding your order. Hollystone Designs uses Create as our website platform provider and this is where your data will be held temporarily. Create uses the highest levels of security with full SSL encryption, firewalls and password protections to keep your data secure between your browser and the server.

Materials
The appearance of colours and textures on our website may look different on your screen, tablet or mobile due to the contrast settings on your device. Please use our website as a guide regards colour matching and material textures. Hollystone Designs use various different types of woods to produce some of our products. Please be aware that as wood is a natural product, the grains and colours will vary from one piece of wood to another. Plywoods are used to produce many of our flower girl wands and although we tend to avoid using woods with knots in, there will be variations in the markings of the grains. If more than one wand is ordered, we will endeavour to match the wood for colour and grain. We mainly use Birch wood in our products which is a fast growing timber making it more eco friendly, renewable and sustainable.
