Be kind to your earrings. While polymer clay is durable and slightly flexible after cured, the earrings should not be bent or twisted or they may snap.
Polymer clay is unlike ceramic in that it will not shatter if dropped. Its slight flexibility allows it to bend before breaking.
Avoid exposing your earrings to perfumes, hairsprays or dry shampoos. Do not wear them in water.
Pieces made with raw brass charms may need to be polished after regular wear. You can do this with a natural polish made by mixing baking soda and lemon juice applied with a cotton swab.
Store your Crafted Makerie pieces in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent fading.
Avoid carrying your earrings in your purse, gym bag, suitcase, etc. unprotected. This may cause your earrings to be smashed and bend the earrings posts, jump rings, or brass findings. I suggest storing them in a hard jewelry case before placing them in a bag where they could be tossed around.
Cleaning Instructions:
If you happen to get something on your earrings, you can wipe them with a soft, damp cloth. If you encounter a stubborn mark or stain, you can clean your piece by rubbing the spot lightly with a cotton swab dipped in rubbing alcohol.
Due to the nature of my small business and for health and safety precautions, all sales are final and I cannot accept returns or exchanges. However, if you are unsatisfied with your purchase, please email me at hello@thecraftedmakerie within 7 days of receiving your order.
I do offer a 1 year warranty on all earrings. If something happens to your earrings due to a design flaw within 1 year of purchase, I will gladly replace your earrings or provide a refund. Proof of purchase is required. I reserve the right to determine whether or not damage to an earring is considered the result of a design flaw.
I will not replace pieces that are damaged from mishandling. This includes intentionally bending or twisting the pieces, not storing items properly, and improperly cleaning them. You can find instructions on how to care for your pieces in the "How do I care for my earrings?" section of this page.
Not at all! Polymer clay and acrylic are both lightweight allowing you to look great while giving your ears a rest. You'll likely forget you're even wearing them because they're so light and comfortable to wear!
