FAQ

ARE THERE VARIATIONS IN COLOR?

The actual color of lampwork glass jewelry and other jewelry may vary from what you see on your computer.  It could be a variation in the color shown by our monitors, or it could be the lack of a good photograph.  (I said I was a lampworker, not a photographer!)
If a picture appears not to represent the actual color of the item, I’ll do my best to describe that variation in the details of each product.   

ARE THERE COLOR VARIATIONS IN HANDMADE BEADS?

As with all handmade items, each lampwork bead is one of a kind and though similar, will vary from bead to bead.  Though the size and color of each bead will remain mostly uniform, there will be some variation from the items pictured.  Also, the actual color may appear different on your computer.  

WILL I RECEIVE THE EXACT ITEM PICTURED?

As each bead is unique and one of a kind, so are all of the jewelry pieces and thus the picture is a representation of the item which you will receive.  In some instances, the difference is minuscule; in other instances, I may have chosen a different toggle clasp or a different Bali-style bead than is shown in the picture.  All materials will be of the same high quality style and size shown, but may vary in some of the finer details.

First Class mail service begins at $5.00 per package with a maximum shipping charge of $8.00 for First Class mail service.  Priority Mail service is $7.90 for a small flat rate box and there is no shipping charge for Pick Up at Pizazz.  

HOW LONG WILL IT TAKE TO GET MY ORDER?

This depends on the piece or pieces you have ordered and the method of shipment you’ve chosen.  As a rule of thumb, lampwork glass pieces are created when the order is placed and would be shipped no sooner than the third business day.  Items not custom made and in stock would be shipped within two business days.

IS BUYING ON-LINE SAFE?

My site uses an SSL certificate for on-line purchasing safety.  Please notice the padlock symbol in the address line of my site; a sign of a website using an SSL certificate.

HOW DO I MEASURE MY WRIST?

Measure your wrist around the wrist bone using a flexible measuring tape, holding the tape snug but not tight.  This is your wrist measurement.  As an alternative, you could wrap a string or ribbon around your wrist and measure the resulting length with a ruler.  

WHAT BRACELET LENGTH SHOULD I ORDER?

A general recommendation for sizing an adult bracelet is to add 3/4-inch to the wrist measurement to determine the bracelet length.  If you have a bracelet similar in scale that fits well, measure that bracelet to determine your bracelet length.  If you are ordering a Noodle bracelet, add only 1/2-inch to the wrist measurement.  

IF THE BEADS ARE LARGER, WHAT BRACELET LENGTH SHOULD I ORDER?

A general recommendation is to add 1 to 1-1/2 inches to your wrist measurement to determine your bracelet length if the bracelet is made with larger, bulkier beads.  If you have a bracelet similar in scale that fits well, measure that bracelet to determine you’re bracelet length. 

WHAT BRACELET LENGTH SHOULD I ORDER FOR A CHILD?

A general recommendation for sizing a child’s bracelet is to add 1/2-inch to the wrist measurement to determine the bracelet length.  An extender chain will be added to the end of the bracelet to allow the bracelet to grow with the child.  

MY 10-YEAR OLD BRACELET NEEDS TO BE REPAIRED!

DO YOU REPAIR JEWELRY MADE BY OTHERS?
