Shop Policies
Notes from the Potting Shed.
The Potting Shed is a small artist’s shop. Many pieces are original, handmade, produced in limited quantities, or prepared only after an order is placed. These policies are intended to make expectations clear while allowing the work to remain careful and personal.
Product Descriptions
We make every reasonable effort to describe dimensions, materials, colors, condition, edition information, and important variations accurately.
Screens display color differently, and handmade work may include natural variations. Please read the full description and review all available images before ordering. Contact us before purchase if a detail is important to your decision.
Original Artwork
Original artwork is one of a kind unless clearly described otherwise. Minor evidence of the artist’s process - deckled edges, pencil marks, paper texture, brush variation, collage depth, or hand finishing - may be part of the work rather than damage.
Ownership of the physical original does not transfer copyright or reproduction rights.
Prints and Editions
Product listings will identify the print method, paper or material, dimensions, whether the piece is signed or numbered, and whether it belongs to an open or limited edition.
Frames, mats, props, or display objects are not included unless the listing expressly says they are.
Handmade and Natural Materials
Handmade sculptures, jewelry, mixed-media pieces, pressed botanicals, and objects incorporating natural materials may vary slightly. Natural materials can continue to age, soften, fade, or change over time. Care instructions will be included when appropriate.
Digital Products
Unless a listing states otherwise, digital products are for the purchaser’s personal use only and may not be redistributed, resold, shared, modified for resale, or used commercially.
Prices, Availability, and Errors
Prices are shown in United States currency and may change before an order is placed. Items may be withdrawn or updated without notice.
If a listing contains a meaningful pricing, description, inventory, or technical error, Olive & Edith may contact the purchaser to offer correction, substitution where appropriate, or cancellation and refund. No substitution will be made without consent.
Orders and Payment
An order is complete only after payment is successfully processed and confirmation is issued. Payment processing will be handled through the providers enabled on the Wix website. Olive & Edith does not receive complete payment-card numbers from the checkout interface.
Cancellations
Cancellation requests should be sent promptly. A cancellation is not possible after an order has entered production, been personalized, is digital, or has already shipped.
Promotions and Gift Cards
Terms, expiration rules, exclusions, and any legal requirements should be stated with the relevant offer.
Questions Before Ordering
If you are uncertain about an item, please write before purchasing. A careful answer before an order is better than disappointment afterward.

Lost or Stolen Packages
Because our items are handmade, unique, and produced in small batches, we utilize strict shipping guidelines to ensure your art arrives safely.
-
Transit Issues: If your tracking has stopped updating, please notify us. We will file a carrier search on your behalf after 5 business days of zero tracking movement.
-
Stolen Packages: Once a package is scanned as Delivered by the carrier, risk of loss passes to the buyer. We are not responsible for porch theft. If you suspect your item was stolen after delivery, please contact your local carrier office and file a local police report.
-
Address Accuracy: Buyers are entirely responsible for providing an accurate shipping address at checkout. We cannot issue refunds or complimentary replacements for items sent to an incorrectly entered address.
-
Optional Shipping Protection: For absolute peace of mind, we strongly recommend selecting our insured shipping option at checkout to cover any unanticipated transit issues.
Packaging
Packages may include thoughtful wrapping, a handwritten note, a bookmark or small paper keepsake, and protective materials chosen with care. Recycled, reusable, seed-embedded, mulchable, or garden-friendly materials will be adopted as they become practical, safe, and appropriate for the item.
