The holidays are coming fast (yay!), which means it’s time to start checking those names off your gift list. I’ve put together a quick FAQ with everything you need to know about ordering, shipping, and gift wrapping this season from Team Colors by Carrie.
Whether you’re treating yourself or shopping for the perfect handmade team jewelry gift, this guide will help make your holiday shopping smooth and stress-free!
🎁 Packaging & Gift Wrapping
Do you offer gift wrapping?
Yes! I offer optional gift wrapping for the holidays. Each piece comes beautifully packaged, but you can upgrade to festive wrap if you’d like it ready to gift, perfect for stocking stuffers or team spirit gifts.
Can I include a personalized gift message?
Of course! Add your message at checkout, and I’ll handwrite it on a cute tag or note card. Great for sending personalized sports fan gifts straight to your recipient.
What does your gift wrapping look like?
I keep it simple, seasonal, and sweet with colored paper, a touch of ribbon, and a sprinkle of holiday cheer.
Will multiple items be packaged together?
Each item is packaged individually unless you ask otherwise (perfect for gifting to different people!). If you’d like them boxed together, just leave me a note.
Do you include prices or invoices in the package?
You have the option to mark the order as a gift, which tells me not to include an invoice, and your gift stays a surprise.
🚚 Shipping & Delivery
What are your holiday order deadlines?
To make sure your gifts arrive by Christmas:
- Order by December 10th for standard shipping
- Order by December 15th using Express shipping
How long until my order ships?
Most items are ready to ship in 1-3 business days (not including weekends). If you have concerns about when your order will ship, please contact me.
Which shipping carrier do you use?
All orders ship through USPS, and you’ll get a tracking number once your package is on its way.
Can I upgrade to faster shipping?
Yes! Priority and Priority Express options are available at checkout, for quicker arrivals.
What if my package is delayed or lost?
If tracking hasn’t updated for several days, send me a message! I’ll help you sort it out with USPS and find the best solution.
Do you ship internationally?
No, not at this time.
💌 Custom & Personalized Jewelry
How long does it take to make custom and personalized jewelry?
Custom orders are ready to ship in about 1–3 business days. During the holidays, that time may be extended, so I recommend ordering early because my custom queue fills up fast!
Can I rush a custom order?
Sometimes, yes! Message me first to see what’s possible and I’ll do my best to make it happen.
Can I request a color combo or charm that’s not listed?
Definitely! Custom colors and charms are my specialty, and I love helping customers design personalized team jewelry to match their favorite school or pro team.
🎄 Holiday Extras & Policies
Do you offer holiday discounts or promotions?
I do! Keep an eye on my Etsy shop or follow me on social media for special sales and coupon codes on handcrafted holiday jewelry gifts throughout the season.
Can I order in bulk for team gifts or stocking stuffers?
Yes! I love creating team gifts and custom sports jewelry sets. Message me for a quote or bulk discount for great gifts for teammates, coaches, or fan clubs!
What if I need to change my shipping address?
If your order hasn’t shipped yet, message me ASAP and I’ll fix it. Once it’s shipped, I can’t make changes.
What’s your return policy for holiday gifts?
Because everything is handcrafted and often customized, I don’t accept returns on custom pieces. But message me if there’s a problem! I want you (and your gift recipient) to be thrilled!
How can I make sure my order arrives on time?
Simple: order early! USPS gets super busy in December, so placing your order ahead of schedule (and choosing Express Mail) is the best way to guarantee it arrives before the big day.
