PRICING
Shipping is paid by the buyer. I ship to get the doll to you in the best possible condition, and I have shipped everywhere from California to England with success. Shipping for one doll will be figured for a three to four pound package to your destination from Pennsylvania. The most cost effective methods are USPS Parcel Post or UPS Ground--the decision is that of the buyer; it is also the decision of the buyer to go 1st Class/Priority, but the shipping cost has become cost prohibitive as a regular option for most of my buyers.I ACCEPT PAYPAL!
If the doll is intended as a gift for someone, give me a few details about what makes that person special--when I create custom dolls for people, I often ask them for details about the person they are buying for that make them endeared to the person, and I try to stay attuned to the qualities and interpret them into the faerie. For instance, one faerie that I made was for display in the bedroom of a girl who instantly brought to mind summer, pink, and those little butterfly barrettes that children wear. As I made the faerie (a light, glowing pink--almost white it was so light--with a butterfly in her hair), I decided I needed to make a dandelion wand for her to hold...when presented with the doll, the girl's mother told me that her daughter has always given her dandelions, specifically, when they go on walks together.
Prices start at $50 for a basic faerie with a tattered organza dress (examples are Sherry and Airin). Faeries with a more structured dress design (like Wren or Opal) *start* at $60--material used and intricacy of the clothing may increase this price. Mermaids start at $100. Elphaba & Galinda sets are $200 (or $100 each). Feel free to ask about additions like head wreathes, wands, fairy dust bottles, crowns, hats, etc. (for an additional charge). Non-faerie creations (and I have done some, but stay within my style) also *start* at $60. Skrumgly dolls need to have pricing done on a case on a case by case basis, but don't be shy about running an idea by me for a price quote! To cover the initial costs of materials for your doll (or dolls), I require a down payment equal to a third of your doll's (or dolls') total price. Final payment is due upon completion, before the doll(s) ships. Payment can be made via PayPal, money order, or check; please allow time for checks and money orders to clear before shipment is made.
Please also let me know if you would like your doll to have open or closed eyes (like Cyrene).
