ORDERING:

I currently offer custom ring slings and appliquéd panels for mei tai’s and structured soft carriers.

All of my slings are made to order. You pick all of the colors; body of the sling, edging, and thread. I use 100% cotton sateen for the body, edging fabric varies and may contain polyester. Please see my color swatch page for current color choices. You choose your appliqué design. You can pick from some of the appliqués currently on my blog or tell me your ideas, find some images online for reference, and I will draw it up. Some appliqués are OOAK and I will not repeat them. If you would like print fabrics incorporated into your sling, you will need to provide it. Please have an idea of what amount you are looking to spend. I start by drawing your design and then begin sewing. You pay after you approve the drawing and your sling will be shipped out no later than 3 weeks after you pay.

Double layer slings not available. I am not making pouches at this time. If you would like a similar style pouch, you can contact Katie at Metrosupial Designs.

**Email responsiveness is extremely important as I have a limited amount of sewing time each day and need to utilize it productively. Please be sure my emails are not going into a junk or bulk box! Yahoo users especially…If you email me and don’t hear back–please check these places!! **

Please keep in mind that I only sew at night and when my kids are napping.

WAIT LIST:

***My wait list is currently closed *** I will reopen in September but don’t have an exact date at this time. I suggest you join my yahoo group, as that is where I will be announcing the openings.

PRICING:

Ring slings start at $95. Depending on detail, the price goes up. For example, using print on the rails or in an appliqué is $10 extra, a hidden pocket on the back of the tail is $10. All of the slings on my blog are priced to give a general idea of what yours may cost.

Panels are priced on what I would charge for it on a RS, minus the $95 base price.  I do have a $15 minimum charge… so for example, if you just want 3 stars, even tho they are included in the $95 base price, that would cost you $15.

SHIPPING:

Priority shipping is a flat rate of $10 which includes insurance and DC. I ship in a priority box so that it doesn’t get too squished, and the larger boxes add cost to the shipping rate, hence the $10. ;)

Appliqué panels ship for actual first class rate.

Please email me for international shipping rates.

RETURNS:

Please note that I do not take returns as my slings are 100% custom. I do not offer refunds. I’m willing to shorten a sling, free of charge, however, buyer pays shipping. I also guarantee my craftsmanship for one year from purchase. If there is a flaw on my part, buyer pays shipping to me, I pay shipping back. Machine washing voids this guarantee.

WASHING:

All fancy appliquéd slings are *hand wash only*. Please be aware of this before ordering. I do not recommend washing often. Line dry only. I do prewash all of my fabrics before sewing so shrinkage is not an issue.
