About The Business
1. The business
Laura's Crafted Collectibles is a British business that creates:
- Crochet/Amigurumi patterns to download as a PDF file. Note that they are not physical products.
- Handmade crochet/amigurumi plushies that are made to order and send off internationally. The countries that have been included are: U.K., North America, Australia and New Zealand.
- Graphic drawings that are to be used on bonus keychains. For example, you can only claim them as extra pieces, if you purchase a physical product.
2. About the founder
I have something called Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD), and that means my brain works a little differently. I've been diagnosed with it at age 3, and I've been getting a lot of support since then. It may be a problem in life, but it's definitely made me love crafting and make plushies with yarn and fabrics.
In 2018, I studied Fashion & Textiles at Colchester Institute, before graduating in October 2021. I have a hobby of creating collectibles/plush cushions, whether they're crocheted, sewn or digitally printed.
3. The value of my products
I sell well-made products, each one having top quality and some showing large amounts of detail.
As for the crochet patterns, I test upcoming ones with other crocheters via Instagram and a website named Ribblr. I make sure that they are easy to follow and try not to make any errors. If you're experiencing problems, please let me know, and I'll do my best to correct them.
4. Target audience
The target audience is for people aged over 12 years old, since the plushies that I make are not considered as toys. They're basically for display only.
As for the crochet patterns, they are for people who are more experienced with crocheting and want to challenge themselves. For example, some projects are straightforward, whilst others can be more difficult.
5. Store Policies
I offer refunds for handmade plushies and other physical products, but only when either they haven't been dispatched yet, or have been returned to me. However, I do not accept refunds or cancellations for digital downloads. If you're experiencing a problem with your order, please contact me via my contacts page.
