MAKING A PURCHASE
Making a purchase could not be easier. Just browse our products and click on any items that you wish to buy and put them into your ‘Shopping Bag.’ After you have finished your selection, click on 'View Basket & Checkout' and you will be asked for a few details that we need to be able to fulfil the order.
Promotional discounts are sometimes offered for a limited time. Details and expiry details will be communicated accordingly at the time the discount is offered. Discount codes can be applied at checkout.
You are deemed to place an order with us by ordering via our online checkout process. We will send you an order acknowledgement by email, detailing the products you have ordered.
Our acceptance of an order takes place when we dispatch the order to the customer.

We may refuse to accept an order:
- Where goods are not available
- Where we cannot obtain authorisation for your payment
- If there has been a pricing or product description error
- If you do not meet any eligibility criteria set out in our terms and conditions

- If we believe your order is for commercial or other non-domestic concerns.

RETURNS
Our Returns policy
You have 30 days from receipt of your order to make a return.

Cut lengths of fabric cannot be returned. We strongly recommend that you order a sample prior to placing your fabric order.
Please note that with our fabric by the metre, there may be up to a 2cm discrepancy in the print alignment, due to the printing process. This may cause issues if using our fabric to construct blinds. We would not class this as a fault, so please be aware of this prior to ordering as cut fabric is non-returnable.
Lampshades are made to order, so we cannot accept returns unless there is a fault with the item
Made to measure blinds and curtains cannot be returned if you have a change of mind or measured incorrectly. We strongly advise you to order a sample and review our buying guide before placing your order.

They will let you know what their returns policy is, and should be able to resolve any problems for you.
Gift returns
If you have received a gift and would like to exchange it or return it for gift vouchers, you will need to ask the gift-giver for their order reference number, as well as one of the following details associated with their order: delivery postcode, phone number or email address. They will be able to find this information on their order confirmation email or the dispatch note that was included in their parcel.
A gift can be returned for an exchange (*UK only), or refunded onto a gift voucher for the amount purchased. Please note that an email will be sent to the original person who made the order, when the return or exchange is completed. Cash refunds can only be made to the original credit or debit card on which the gift was purchased.
Please note that in order for our returns team to process your gift return correctly as an exchange or gift voucher, you must follow the below instructions:
- In Step 2, you must select the return reason ‘Unwanted Gift’, then write ‘I am the gift recipient’ in the comments box below (please also include the new item number, if exchanging the item)
- In Step 3, you must provide your own name, phone number, email address and delivery address
If we do not receive this information, exchanges will be delivered to the address on the original order, and refunds will be issued to the original payment method. We cannot be responsible should this happen, and you would then need to resolve this directly with the gift giver.
On the rare occasion that an item received as a gift has developed a fault, please get in touch with the order reference number and gift-givers details, as well as a clear image of the fault, so that we can look into the matter further for you and advise of next steps. Do not return these items before contacting our Customer Experience Team, as it may slow down the process and we may not require a return.

PERSONALISATION
- All personalised orders are considered final at the point of order placement.
- Please ensure that you take extra care when entering any names or messages into our website as we are unable to offer refunds or replacements for personalised items unless they are faulty.
- By the very individual nature of personalised products, they cannot be easily re-sold, and therefore we cannot accept returns if you have a change of mind.
- Personalised items can only be ordered with standard delivery.
- Orders that contain both personalised and non-personalised items will be sent in one parcel. If you require your non-personalised items earlier, you will need to raise a separate order on our website.
- Delivery estimate for personalised fabrics is 3-6 working days. Delivery estimate for personalised mugs is up to 10 working days.
- Please note before ordering a personalised product that due to the nature of the repeat pattern on some of our designs, our personalised lettering can be positioned over Sophie’s designs. We cannot accept this as a fault.
- All of our personalised items are decorated by hand, so you may see a slight variation between personalised pieces depending on the lettering and thread colour you have chosen.
- We reserve the right to sell any rejected personalised samples in our Outlet shop in Bourne.
- We reserve the right not to accept personalised orders if we believe the personalisation that has been entered is inappropriate and/or offensive.
- We may refuse to accept an order if we believe your order is for commercial or other non-domestic concerns.
- Our £10 service charge for personalisation cannot be used in conjunction with discount codes.
- Please note that if your personalised text uses all capital letters and is near the 12 character limit, our team reserve the right to reduce the font size as necessary. Your personalised text may vary slightly from online imagery, but we would not see this as a fault.
MADE TO MEASURE
- All made to measure orders are considered to be final at the point of order placement. We are unable to amend made to measure orders.
- Please ensure that you take extra care when entering your measurements and specifications (refer to our buying guide here), as we are unable to offer refunds or replacements for made to measure items unless they are faulty.
- By the bespoke nature of made to measure products, they cannot be easily re-sold, and therefore we cannot accept returns if you have a change of mind.
- Made to measure items are produced to order by our supplier, so will take up to 21 working days to be delivered. Any other items in your order will be sent separately within the delivery time frame selected.
- For recess window fittings, please note that our supplier will deduct up to 10-12mm on the width and drop entered, to ensure the best fit for your window. Blinds are also measured bracket to bracket, so please note that the fabric will be up to 35mm narrower than the tube to accommodate the control chain. This means there will be a total deduction of up to 45-47mm to achieve the fabric width for a recess fitting.
- For exact measurements, blinds are measured bracket to bracket, so please note that the fabric will be up to 35mm narrower than the tube to accommodate the control chain.
- If you request a sample prior to purchase, please note that there may be a slight colour discrepancy when you receive your finished Made to Measure order. This is a part of the production process and we would not see this as a fault.
- If you are thinking of ordering more than one curtain or blind, we strongly recommend ordering them at the same time, as there may be slight colour variations with the fabric print run at different time frames
