Returns and Refunds

At Coastal Chic Studio, we take great pride in the quality and craftsmanship of our handmade items, and your satisfaction is very important to us. Due to the unique and personalized nature of handcrafted products, we have created the following refund policy:

1. Returns and Refunds Eligibility

   • Items may be eligible for a refund or exchange if they arrive damaged, defective, or if there is a significant discrepancy from the description provided at the time of purchase.

   • To be eligible for a return or exchange, please contact us within 7 days of receiving your item with proof of purchase and photos of any damage or defect.

   • Items must be returned unused and in their original condition to qualify for a refund.

2. Non-Refundable Items

   • Customized or personalized items are non-refundable unless they arrive damaged or defective.

   • Items that have been used, altered, or damaged after delivery will not qualify for a refund.

3. Refund Process

   • Once your return is received and inspected, we will notify you of the approval or rejection of your refund.

   • Approved refunds will be processed, and a credit will automatically be applied to your original payment method within 10-14 business days.

4. Return Shipping

   • Buyers are responsible for return shipping costs unless the return is due to our error or a defective item. We recommend using a trackable shipping service, as we cannot guarantee receipt of returned items.

For any questions regarding our refund policy, please reach out to our customer service team at coastalchicstudiosinc@gmail.com. We are here to ensure a positive experience with every purchase!
