I am going to be taking a break for a couple of weeks from 20 June so orders received by
Monday, 10 June will be made up and sent out before I leave
.
I will be back sewing on 12 July so any orders received while I'm away will be worked on from then.
I will be off the grid for most of my time away so will answer any messages/emails/questions upon my return.
Thank you for your understanding.

What happens if my order does not arrive?

If your order does not arrive within a reasonable period of time based on the information above please contact me. 

For the majority of countries, packages are sent via tracked air post or courier (if selected) so in the event of your package failing to arrive within a reasonable time frame, I will be able to investigate it for you.

If you are concerned that your package may not arrive at its destination I recommend you choose the Courier option at checkout.

What is your return policy?

If there is a problem with something you bought from me please let me know by completing our Contact Form or emailing me directly at hurlestone@yahoo.com outlining the problem and I will investigate it for you.

I do not have to provide a refund, repair, or replacement if:

  • You have changed your mind about a purchase.

  • You cause the problem either by accident or on purpose.

  • You do not follow the advice about the product's use or care.

  • You go to someone else for repairs before coming to me.

If the goods are faulty I will meet my obligations under the Consumer Guarantees Act (1993) of New Zealand to provide a remedy.

Whether this is a refund, repair, or replacement depends on how bad the problem is and whether a fault can be repaired, or if a replacement is available.

Faulty item returns must be sent back to me within 7 days of receipt for New Zealand orders and within 10 days of receipt for International orders.

Return faulty items in a manner of delivery that can be traced to Hurlestone, 54 Kensington Avenue, Rangiora, 7400, New Zealand, and send me an email at hurlestone@yahoo.com advising me of the following:

  • Your name.

  • Your address.

  • Your preferred contact telephone/mobile number.

  • Your email.

  • Your desired remedy (refund, repair, or replacement).

  • Your description of the fault.

Purchase handling, postage, packaging, and delivery costs are non-refundable and return shipping and shipping costs are the customer's responsibility. Return delivery of a faulty item remains the responsibility of the customer until it reaches Hurlestone.

How is my purchase packaged?

Your purchase is wrapped and securely packaged. I use New Zealand made packaging where I can and try to be as considerate to the environment as possible.

Currently I use cardboard boxes that are robust and designed for posting, pop starch as protective fill, and tissue paper to wrap your items:

  • The cardboard boxes are New Zealand made and are recyclable. 

  • The pop starch protective fill is New Zealand made and environmentally friendly. It is made from sustainable renewable materials and is 100% compostable and biodegradable. It can be dissolved in water or thrown out on the grass to biodegrade over a short period of time. It is not harmful to animals, bird life, and is non-toxic in the marine environment. It can be reused and recycled through the same waste stream as paper and cardboard.

  • The tissue paper is reusable and recyclable.

  • The packing tape, stickers, and ribbon are not currently recyclable in New Zealand.

Can I buy a gift card?

Hurlestone does not offer gift cards.

Are the colours of the items on the website correct?

As a small business I take all my own photographs using natural light and will sometimes alter the brightness to try to give a more realistic view of the product/fabric colours. While I try to ensure the colours of the items are correct, I cannot guarantee colour correctness in relation to the screen type, browser, or software you are using.

Can you clip pens to the pen pouches?

Yes - If you like use your pen clips when storing your pens you can do this with any of my pen pouches.

Can I buy the pens and inks shown in the photos?

The pens and inks are from my own collection and are used to showcase the products only. They are not for sale or included with the products when you purchase them.
