Loosely translates to:
"One day I was returning home very late carrying my child and I got a very strong scare. When the witch appeared in the cactus field, she wanted to suck my child and I was desperate and didn't know what to do. I began to pray and I entrusted myself to Saint Theresa of Jesus, asking for her protection for my child and me. And thanks to her intercession, the witch went away and gave us peace, and that is why now I am very grateful to the miraculous Saint Teresa of Jesus."

Yes! I'm happy to offer free local pick up in Southern Vermont. Please message me to arrange or if you have any questions.

Do you reserve items for your customers?
Very rarely. It depends on the item and is done at my discretion. A non-refundable down payment is required if I do agree to reserve an item.
How long will it take to receive my item?
My general processing time is 1-8 business days. Please refer to estimated shipping and delivery times within each individual listing. Smaller items tend to be processed and shipped out quicker than larger items. I try to ship items out as quickly as possible, please contact me if you need an item by a certain date and I will work with you to get it there. If your order is shipping within the US then you will typically receive your item/s within 3 to 15 business days. International customers will receive their item/s within 7 to 30 business days depending on your location. These times are estimates and can take longer due to weather and events that are out of my control.
Do you offer discounts or accept offers on your items.
No, I do not. The price is already set at my best price. The only time discounts are offered is when I am running an actual sale, then the discount price will be shown within each individual listing. I do not offer additional discounts on sale items.
Do you offer ring re-sizing? or Can you tell me if a ring can be re-sized?
I'm currently not offering ring re-sizing services. I won't be able to tell you if a ring can be sized or not as i am not a jeweler. Each jeweler's skill level is different, and the sizing capability for a ring will depend on the jeweler doing the re-sizing. The best way to determine if a ring can be sized or not is to show a picture of the ring to the jeweler that you plan to have do the sizing.
Do you offer layaway?
I'm currently not offering layaway on any of my items via Etsy. Please contact me through instagram or my website if you would like to set up a layaway plan. Etsy also offers Klarna as a checkout option, which is very similar to layaway.
do you accept returns or cancellations?
I absolutely do not accept returns or do order cancellations. Please examine all provided listing photos and read the entire item description and listing details before placing an order. All of my items are vintage or antique, and typically show age/ wear. Any imperfections are always noted and shown within the item descriptions and listings photos. I take the time to write detailed listing descriptions as well as provide the maximum amount of product photos, so please take the time to carefully read and examine them before ordering.
