Holiday Order‑By Guide (Arrive in time for Christmas)

Stores don’t print your one‑of‑a‑kind pet… but I do. If you’re gifting custom this year, here are the last days to order your artwork so your goodies land by Thursday, Dec 20th if not before to be sure your loved ones get their most cherished treasure this holiday.

Important: The clock starts after art approval. I draw your pet by hand first, you approve the sketch, then we print and ship. Approving fast keeps you on track.


How my art timelines work

Choose the path that matches your idea:

  • Classic & Simple BYO — uses icons I’ve already drawn (+quick tweaks): 1–2 weeks for artwork
  • Moderate Custom BYO — 1–3 brand‑new illustrated elements : ~2-3 weeks for artwork
  • Fully Custom — everything is drawn from scratch for your theme: ~2-4 weeks for artwork

Last Day to Order Your Artwork (by item category)

Pick your item category, then find your path (Fully Custom / Moderate / Classic). These are the final dates to start the art so we can approve → produce → ship on time by Dec 20.

Tip: If you’re mixing items, plan to the longest production window in your set.

Didn’t order in time? I’ve got you.
A POP Gift Card lets them make the fun choices while you take care of the cost. They’ll pick the art path, approve their sketch, and print it on whatever they love—blankets, PJs, mugs, bandanas (their art stays on file, so no repeat art fees). You’re not guessing sizes or colors; you’re gifting the exact custom piece they’ll cherish daily.

FAQs

When does the clock start?
After art approval. I’ll send a sketch; once you approve, production begins.

Can you rush it?
Often, yes—rush capacity is limited and fees may apply. DM me with your date.

What if I miss a deadline?
Grab a digital gift card or an IOU card featuring the sketch—still super personal.

Do I pay the art fee again later?
Nope. Once your pet’s art exists, it stays on file so you can reorder new products anytime without a repeat art fee.
