A Little Note About Custom Orders

Hello Dear Collectors,
I wanted to take a moment to share a little behind-the-scenes peek at how custom orders work here at Happy Hippie Customs. When you place a custom order, you’re not just picking something off a shelf—you’re inviting me to create something just for you. Every piece is made by hand, start to finish, right here in my studio in Eustis. That means your item begins as raw materials, imagination, and a lot of care.
Because each project is made in the order it’s received, and some pieces take extra time to cure or require special supplies, custom orders can take a few weeks to complete. As the holidays roll around, the studio gets especially busy, so turnaround times can stretch even longer. The best way to make sure your gift or seasonal décor arrives on time is to send me your ideas sooner rather than later.

I’m truly honored to be chosen to make your pieces, and I will always do my best to meet a deadline if possible. If you have a specific date you’re aiming for—like a birthday, anniversary, or special occasion—let me know. That helps me plan and sometimes ensures your custom creation arrives right when you need it.
If you’re in a hurry, don’t worry! I have a large selection of items ready to ship, and I’m happy to combine them with your custom order—or send them separately—so you can get part of your order quickly.
Thank you for supporting handmade. Choosing a custom piece means choosing patience, individuality, and a little bit of magic—all created with care. I promise, it’s worth the wait.
Warmly,
Arlene
