Media
(VHS, DVDs, Records, CDs, Video Games, Books)
While these physical formats offer nostalgic and entertainment value, there are important factors to consider for your safety and enjoyment:
-
Age & Compatibility: Older content may contain themes or representations that are no longer appropriate by today’s standards. Please review ratings and content warnings where available.
-
Region Restrictions: Some media (especially DVDs and video games) include region locks that limit playback depending on your geographic location.
-
Obsolete Technology: Formats like VHS tapes, cassettes, and older game cartridges may degrade or be incompatible with modern devices. Handle with care and store in cool, dry environments to preserve longevity.
-
Digital Preservation: Consider digitizing older media to ensure long-term accessibility and reduce risk of loss.
-
Content Accuracy: Second-hand media may be incomplete or altered. Verify authenticity and condition before use.
-
Parental Controls: Many visual media items (especially DVDs or games) may include content unsuitable for younger viewers. Implement appropriate restrictions where needed.
-
Online Interaction: Some physical media, especially games, may include online features. Supervise children's online activity and remain cautious of interactions with unknown users.
-
No Content Updates: Physical media does not allow for patches or updates. Video games in particular may contain bugs or outdated features.
Resin Products
(Plates, Utensils, Containers, Serveware etc.)
While resin products are admired for their aesthetic and handmade appeal, they are not always intended for food use. Resin items, especially handmade ones, can contain chemical additives that, if not fully cured or sealed, may leach into food and pose health risks.
Please keep the following precautions in mind:
-
Check Product Specifications: Only use resin products that are explicitly labeled as food-safe or FDA-approved. Avoid using items with no safety labeling for direct food contact.
-
Proper Curing is Essential: If a resin item was not fully cured during production, it may remain chemically active. Products should be fully cured and sealed before coming in contact with food.
-
Avoid Heat Exposure: Resin can break down at high temperatures. Do not use resin items in microwaves, ovens, or with hot food or drinks, unless clearly marked as safe for such use.
-
Inspect Regularly: If you see any cracks, chipping, or surface degradation, discontinue use immediately.
-
Hand Wash Only: Resin items should be gently hand washed. Dishwashers can weaken the resin and cause breakdown over time.
When in doubt, enjoy resin-made products for decorative purposes only.
Candles & Fragrance Products
Candles, wax melts, and fragrance oils bring warmth and ambiance—but should always be used responsibly:
-
Never leave a lit candle unattended.
-
Keep away from pets, children, and flammable surfaces.
-
Place on heat-resistant surfaces and trim wicks before each use.
-
Do not burn a candle all the way to the bottom—discontinue at ½ inch of remaining wax.
-
Avoid direct skin contact with fragrance oils, and wash hands after use.
-
Burn in ventilated spaces to avoid buildup of scent or soot.
Jewelry & Accessories
Our wearable pieces are meant to add style and sparkle, but should be handled with care:
-
Not suitable for children under three years old due to small parts.
-
May contain materials like nickel or plated metals that could irritate sensitive skin.
-
Avoid wearing while swimming, bathing, or exercising.
-
Store away from moisture and direct sunlight.
-
Apply lotions, sprays, or perfumes before putting on accessories to avoid tarnishing.
Antiques & Vintage Items
When purchasing vintage and antique items, there are several important considerations for collectors and casual buyers alike.
Key Considerations:
-
Authenticity: Reproductions and counterfeits can be passed off as genuine. Research or consult an expert before investing in high-value items.
-
Condition: Expect natural wear, patina, or signs of age. See product listings for condition details.
-
Provenance: Knowing an item’s history adds to its value and authenticity. Ask about documentation like receipts, appraisals, or certificates.
-
Restoration: Any known restoration work will be disclosed.
-
Materials & Safety: Some antiques may include lead-based glazes, mercury, asbestos, or other hazardous substances.
-
Food Use Warning: Many older items were made before current safety standards and may not be food-safe (e.g., lead glaze, unsafe metals).
-
Legal Restrictions: Be aware of laws regulating the sale of ivory, protected animal materials, or cultural artifacts.
-
Proper Storage: Store antique items in a stable, climate-controlled environment to prevent further deterioration.
If unsure about an item’s purpose or material safety, it is best to use it for display only.
Handmade Product Disclaimer
Many of our items are handmade, and as such, each one is truly unique. Please expect:
-
Slight variations in color, size, shape, or finish
-
Natural imperfections in material (e.g., brush marks, knots, surface texture)
-
One-of-a-kind design features
These traits are not flaws—they are a mark of quality craftsmanship and individuality.
Upcycled & Reclaimed Materials
Sustainability is important to us. Some of our products are made from reclaimed or upcycled materials. These special items may show:
-
Marks of previous use or wear
-
Slight inconsistency in material or texture
-
Natural imperfections from past life cycles
Please note: unless clearly stated, these items are not intended for food use.
Accessibility Considerations
Some products—particularly games, puzzles, books, and media—may not be suitable for all users due to:
-
Fine print or low-contrast design
-
Manual dexterity or visual skill requirements
-
Lack of alternative formats or instructions
If you or someone in your household has a specific accessibility concern, feel free to contact us. We’re happy to help guide your selections.
