Oh how we would love one! Alas, are an online store only. We are based in Sydney, Australia and all orders are shipped from here.
At this time we are only shipping to Australia and New Zealand due to exorbitant shipping costs but hopefully this will change in the future. However if you do live internationally and would like to order one of our beautiful and unique handmade journals we would gladly discuss this you. Please email us with any requests.
We have timed our delivery times all over Australia and barring any unforeseen disasters we can safely say that your order will arrive within 3-7 business days. Please note the 'business days' part (so if you order on a Saturday for example the countdown will start from the following Monday). Here at Blue Bower we believe in a healthy work-life balance for everyone. Even though it doesn't feel like work (most of the time) because we love what we do, we try to not work over the weekends.
You can request any order to be sent via registered post if you wish. Please email us when you place your order so we can do this for you. All orders over $50 are automatically tracked and we will provide you with a tracking number.
Right now we offer a $10 flat rate shipping cost to anywhere in Australia or New Zealand. Please note that this is subject to change at anytime and we encourage you to check back to our shipping policy before you purchase.
We hope you love everything you receive from us but in the event something arrives damaged or unusable we will certainly exchange it or provide a refund for you. Please email us with a photo of the damaged item and the packaging it came in. Unfortunately we cannot exchange or refund for a change of mind so please choose your journal supplies with that in mind. We have gone to lengthy measures to ensure that our photographs are as close to true colours as possible. Variations in screen settings can distort colours so slight variations can be expected.
