Frequently asked questions

All FAQs ->

What is the return policy?

Our goal is for every customer to be totally satisfied with their purchase. If this isn’t the case, let us know and we’ll do our best to work with you to make it right.

See our full return policy HERE.

How long does it take to finish one?

Most projects take 6–15 hours to complete. It depends on your pace, skill level, and how much time you want to spend perfecting the details. It’s meant to be relaxing, not rushed—take your time and enjoy the process.

Is this beginner-friendly? Would it make a good gift?

Absolutely. No prior experience is needed. Our kits are designed for first timers and craft lovers alike. Each has a difficulty level that simply reflects how much time and focus you might want to invest, not whether you can do it. They also make wonderful gifts — unique, thoughtful, and something you experience, not just receive.

Are these suitable for kids?

We recommend them for ages 14+, as some parts are tiny and delicate. If younger children are involved, adult supervision is a must—but it’s a great activity to do together!

Do I need anything else to complete it?

Most kits include everything you need. For those with lighting, you’ll need 2 AAA batteries. We also recommend having white glue or alcohol-based adhesive for a secure build.

My lights aren’t turning on—what should I check?

1. Make sure the batteries are fresh and inserted correctly, and that the switch is turned on.

2. Check that the wires are connected properly—red to positive and black to negative

3. Look out for any loose or damaged connections.

If you’ve double-checked everything and the lights still won’t turn on, feel free to reach out and we’ll be happy to help or send a replacement if needed.
