FAQ

Welcome to the Hollow – here's what you might want to know.

 

Preorders

When will my kit ship?

Preorders placed between August 7-11 will begin shipping August 30. Orders are packed in small batches to ensure care and quality.

Can I order more than one kit?

Yes! You're welcome to mix and match kits or purchase the full Cottagecore Companion bundle.

What if I want to cancel my preorder?

You can cancel any preorder up until August 20 for a full refund. After that, kits enter production and cannot be refunded once shipped.

Will this be restocked?

Yes! Our kits are designed to be year-round offerings. Preordering guarantees you're first in line for fulfillment, but this collection will remain available after launch (while supplies last). We may occasionally update packaging or seasonal extras, but the core kits aren't going anywhere.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in each kit?


Each individual kit includes:

  • All tools and materials needed for the craft
  • A themed story insert tied to that chapter's mood
  • Eco-conscious packaging with a handmade feel

Kits are designed for beginners and seasoned crafters alike – no special experience needed, just a little time and a cozy space.

What's included in The Cottagecore Companion bundle?


The Companion includes:

  • All three seasonal kits (Embroidery, Candle, and Wax Seal)
  • All three story inserts (one per chapter)
  • A special introductory booklet titled Volume I: Heirloom Beginnings

It's the complete experience – no duplicate content, no missing lore.

Will I miss out on any story inserts if I buy the bundle?


Nope! The Companion bundle includes everything: 
Every story insert from the individual kits, plus the extra booklet that only comes with the bundle. Each piece is designed to feel collectible, so you can enjoy the full chapter without buying twice.

Are your materials Eco-friendly?


Yes! We use:

  • Recyclable kraft boxes and tissue paper
  • Glass, wood, or metal components when possible
  • Minimal plastic, and often none at all
  • Handmade touches like labels and tags


We're always looking for ways to make our packaging even gentler on the earth.

Do you ship internationally?


Not at launch – but we're working on it.
Join our email list to be the first to know when international shipping becomes available.

How long does it take to make each craft?


Most projects are designed to be finished in 1-2 cozy sessions:

  • Embroidery: ~1-3 hours depending on your pace
  • Candle-making: ~30 minutes
  • Wax sealing: ~20 minutes to play, longer if you write a letter too


We believe in crafting slowly – there's no rush in the Hollow.

When will my order ship?


Orders begin shipping within 3-5 business days of launch (August 7-11).
You'll receive tracking as soon as your kit is on its way.

Can I collect future volumes?


Yes! Each seasonal collection is considered a new volume in the Lavender Hollow story.
Volume I is Heirloom Beginnings, and future volumes will explore new moods, projects, and lore.
If you enjoy this one, you'll have the chance to collect many more.
