changes to shipping & return procedures in response to Covid 19
As a small business we are now based in a rural part of NY state that has made it easier to manage our exposure. We ship inventory ourselves and many of the packing procedures we already have in place continue to keep our product and our customers safe.

- keep our inventory/packing separate from our main work area and all items are packaged in individual poly bags ensuring that the product inside is protected.
- All of our inventory was produced and packaged prior to the coronavirus outbreak. We are not planning new production or restocks of sold out basics will continue to sell out. We will reassess restocking & production in 2021.
- We regularly disinfect high touch surfaces and require hand washing prior to packing.
- we are trying to reduce our trips to drop off orders with shipping carriers so this might mean that some orders ship faster than others.
- we travel to post/shipping carriers and wear a mask prior to entering those facilities.
- we will continue to require return authorization and will be modifying our return/exchange process to protect ourselves from the potential of virus on returns. *Please contact us if you are unsure about sizing to reduce risk that you will be unable to return product at this time.
- we already process returns with gloves and refuse items that have been tried on/worn and will add additional layers of protection ie. mask and processing in a room separate from inventory. These items will be held in quarantine and not included in our inventory. We already do this for undergarments but will extend this policy to include all loungewear/sleepwear as well. We will review how to handle these as more information becomes available about the virus' life on surfaces. This might mean that more items will sell out on our site and that we are losing potential revenue.
-please note that Covid 19 has caused disruptions in shipping to many countries from the United States. Shipping and customs clearance times may be delayed. In addition the US Postal Service has temporarily suspended shipping to certain countries due to Covid 19. In some cases free USPS shipping may not be available. A current list of countries with USPS shipping disruptions can be found at www.usps.com. . If your order is impacted by Covid 19 shipping disruptions we will reach out prior to shipment to discuss possible options to ship your order including any additional shipping costs.

We are grateful to be on online business and our hearts are with all the brick and mortar shops and small businesses that have had to close during this outbreak. We are so thankful for your continued support and orders during this time and hope to continue to serve you as long as it is safe to do so.
