Order by Christmas: Shipping Guide for 2026
Every keepsake in this guide is made to order — not mass-produced — and hand-checked by our USA team before it ships. Here is what our shipping policy means for your Christmas deadline:
- Made-to-order production: Every piece is made to order and ships within 2 business days. Choosing Expedited Processing at checkout shortens that to 24–48 hours.
- US delivery window: Once shipped, US orders take 3–5 business days in transit — about 5–7 business days from order to delivery.
- Free US shipping: Shipping is free on all US orders, and every order ships from our USA facility via UPS, FedEx, or USPS.
- International: We ship to 140+ countries; transit times vary by destination, so order earlier.
Our guidance: To be safe for Christmas morning, place your US order at least 7–10 days before December 25 — earlier if you are ordering internationally. We don't publish a single hard cutoff date because carrier volumes vary during the holidays, but the 5–7 business day order-to-delivery window is the number to plan around.
