HOLIDAY INFORMATIONIf your purchase is a gift, I'm always happy to include a personal note with it. (Because of the bulkiness of my pieces, unfortunately, they can not be gift wrapped). If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.***I do not guarantee arrival on any date, Please see my shipping information above.*** Please note my refund policy above.CARE and GENERAL INFORMATIONART ASSEMBLAGE PIECES are fragile and may have sharp or bendable parts-take care when handling. Please handle the piece by the wood panel/box and not by anything attached to the sides. If traveling or mailing them, pack them securely so they don't move around. Some pieces are heavy. Each has a ring hanger(s) on the back and should be hung using a stud in the wall. To preserve bright colors and the staying power of adhesives, avoid hanging in direct sunlight. Adhesives used may have a lingering odor when first made~it will eventually dissipate. My pieces are indoor use only. I do not recommend hanging these pieces in kitchens or bathrooms (Grease, moisture).NOT A TOY-Many of my pieces are brightly colored and appear to be made for children and can be fun to display or hang in a child's room. Many of my items contain small, sharp parts (choking hazard) and rusty metal and should not be hung or displayed above or around cribs/beds and kept out of reach from small children. Please use your discretion if you purchase a piece to be hung or displayed in a child's room.CLEANINGART ASSEMBLAGE PIECES-Dust~I find that using a soft brush like a makeup brush works well to get the dust off the piece(s). I find when using dusters and cloths that the fibers can get caught on certain materials and leave fibers behind. You can also use a hair dryer on a low, cool setting.CUSTOM ORDERS - 2017- I'm taking a break from my art assemblage pieces and I'm not accepting custom orders at this time.Please contact me if you’re interested in a custom piece. I will accept requests that I feel are in my range as an artist.To stay true to myself as an artist, I will not duplicate or replicate any previously made piece. The original idea of a piece is very exciting for me and I like the idea that all of my art pieces are original and not “cookie cutter” art.When considering a custom piece, please keep in mind that I have to find the materials to make a piece. My materials really inspire my work, so sometimes the “hunt” for materials can take weeks or months. (The time spent looking for materials is "in addition to" the completion times explained in the following paragraph).Custom orders take extra time and cannot be rushed. If you would like a custom piece for a special date/holiday, please plan ahead. I have a minimum 8 week completion time for orders placed January through August. Orders placed during the months of September through December have a minimum 12 week completion time. I require that a "Custom Order Contract" is completed by the buyer and myself. This is to protect both parties. There is a non-refundable deposit (50%) due at the beginning of the process and additional costs may apply for any reworking of a piece. Shipping costs are not included in the price of the piece.Please note, due to a heavy workload there are certain times of year when I’m unable to take custom orders, I will do my best to accommodate your requests.Thank you.Please contact me if you're interested in a custom piece, www.redheadhardwick [!at] gmail.com or more info is available on my website, http://jen-hardwick.com Thank you.
