When sending clothing to me, it is the customer’s responsibility to ensure the parcel is securely wrapped, the address clearly written and return address details are on the reverse side. I would recommend sending all clothing using a realiable tracked and signed for delivery service.
All clothing should be in a clean and undamaged condition, if the clothing is too damaged or stained it will be sent back at the customers cost. If you are unsure about the suitability or material of clothing please contact me before sending the items. Clothing does NOT need to be ironed this is done by myself upon interfacing fabric.
By sending your clothing to Custom Cushions you are giving full consent for the clothing to be cut up and transformed into the keepsake of your choice.

CARE
The keepsake bears and animals are not intended or designed to be washed or tumble dried. I would highly recommend against this and Custom Cushions cannot take responsibility for the outcome of the keepsake in this circumstance. We recommend wiping with a damp cloth.
Cushions may be washed, it is recommended hand washing where possible, or can be washed on a 30 degree heat maximum. DO NOT tumble dry. Cushion insert should be removed upon washing and can withstand a cool iron if necessary. If instructions are not followed, this may result in a ruined keepsake. Custom Cushions will not accept liability in this case.
Custom Cushions do not take any responsibility for any damages which occur after your keepsake has been shipped.
Please keep in mind all keepsakes are made from pre loved clothing, clothing that has been worn washed and tumble dried. Therefore the clothing is not as strong as they once were. I highly recommend taking extra care and love when handling the keepsakes, they are not designed to withstand child play and are used for display purposes only.
SAFTEY
Because Custom Cushion keepsakes are crafted from the sentimental items of clothing you provide, it is not possible to test them to CE standards and are not CE approved. As our items are NOT CE certified they are NOT suitable for children under 14 years of age.
When making a purchase please keep in mind the keepsakes are created for showcase purposes only and not suitable for child play.
It is important to be aware that cushions should NOT be used in the cot for any baby under the age of one.
