Frequently Asked Questions

๐Ÿ‘‰ Nature of the Products

โ–ช Are your journals totally handmade?

Yes, they are. I love to make every single detail of each book with my hands.

โ–ช Do you accept custom orders?

It depends. Please contact me with your idea and I will tell you if I can do it. Your project needs to inspire me. I 'm taking pride that since now, I have not a single disappointed customer, and I intend to keep this as a fact! I can make the book that will fulfil your needs, but as I am the creator, the finishing touches will be mine. I am an artist, so you can leave the creative part to me! 

โ–ช Are your journals photo safe?

Yes, they are! I always use the finest materials, researched and bought from all over the world. I have a care for detail, and I make everything by hand. My books are made to withstand time and preserve your work for you and for the generations to come.

๐Ÿ‘‰ Shipping Questions:

โ–ช Are your journals ready to ship?

Sometimes they are, sometimes they are not. If a journal is not ready to ship, it is marked as โ€œmade to orderโ€. You need to check its processing time to know how much time I need to make it for you.

โ–ช Do you ship everywhere?

Yes, I do. I ship everywhere in the world.

โ–ช When can I expect my order?

I will pack your journal very carefully and post it by registered mail. It is more expensive than the simple "airmail" service, but it will let us both breathe freely and not worry about the fate of your journal. I will email you the tracking number, so that you can track your journal during its journey to you.

๐Ÿšš Standard Shipping is fulfilled by National Post. Greek postal service needs 3-10 business days (for registered/express delivery), to deliver to your country's inward Office of Exchange (local post). From then on, it depends on your local post. I have estimated the delivery time to the best of my knowledge, but there might be delays that I cannot predict.

European orders are shipped via DHL. USA and most Canadian orders are shipped via FedEx. If your address is considered "remote" by the carrier, I will revert it to National Post. Please note that courier service is not available for P.O. Boxes

You must inform me that you want to cancel your purchase. It is not enough just to send the goods back. I will send you the European withdrawal form which you will fill, sign and send along with the product. The product should be unused, packed well to avoid damage and sent back to me within 14 days. I will refund you (the value of the item only - no shipping costs), as soon as I can be able to inspect the item (usually 2-3 days, after I receive it).
