Find answers to common queries about our products, services, and policies.

We’re here to ensure your floral experience is smooth and delightful.

Do you ship nationwide?

Yes! We carefully package and ship our handcrafted creations throughout the United States. Each piece is packed with extra care to help ensure it arrives safely.

Do you offer local pickup or delivery?

Yes! We offer local delivery and pickup in the Chattanooga, Tennessee area. Contact us before ordering to arrange local delivery options.

Can you create a custom piece using my teapot, teacup, or other treasured item?

Absolutely! We'd love to turn your cherished teapot, teacup, bowl, bottle, or other special item into a one-of-a-kind garden treasure. Contact us to discuss your custom project.

Are your pieces really one of a kind?

Yes! Because we use vintage and repurposed items, no two creations are exactly alike. When it's gone, it's gone!

What are your products made from?

Most of our creations are handcrafted using repurposed and upcycled vintage teapots, teacups, glassware, crystal, silverware, bottles, and other unique treasures that have been given a beautiful new life.

Are your bird feeders safe for birds?

Yes! Our bird feeders are designed with birds in mind. Simply clean them regularly and refill them with fresh seed to keep your feathered visitors healthy.

Where can I see your products in person?

We regularly participate in craft fairs, festivals, and live events throughout Tennessee and Georgia. Follow us on social media or check our Events page to see where we'll be next.

Do you accept custom orders for gifts?

Yes! We create personalized gifts for birthdays, weddings, anniversaries, memorials, housewarmings, Mother's Day, and many other special occasions.

How long does it take to complete a custom order?

Most custom orders are completed within 2–4 weeks, depending on materials and design complexity.

Do you restock sold-out items?

Usually not. Since each piece is handcrafted from unique vintage finds, exact duplicates are rarely possible. We can, however, create something with a similar style.

Are your items handmade?

Yes! Every piece is individually handcrafted by me in my Tennessee workshop using carefully selected vintage and repurposed materials.

Can I request a specific color or theme?

Of course! Whether you're looking for coastal, farmhouse, floral, cottagecore, rustic, patriotic, or seasonal décor, I'd be happy to create something just for you.

What makes Tea Garden Whimsies different?

Every creation is handcrafted from vintage treasures that have been lovingly repurposed into functional garden art. You're not buying something mass-produced—you're giving a beautiful piece of history a new story.

Do you offer gift wrapping or gift messages?

Yes! If you're sending a gift, let us know and we'll happily include a personalized gift message.

How do I care for my handcrafted garden décor?

To keep your piece looking its best, display it in a protected outdoor area, clean it gently with a soft cloth when needed, and bring it indoors during extreme weather.

What if my item arrives damaged?

We package every order with great care. If your item is damaged during shipping, contact us within 48 hours with photos of the item and packaging so we can make it right.

Why choose repurposed garden décor?

Repurposed and upcycled garden décor gives vintage treasures a second life while reducing waste. Every Tea Garden Whimsies creation is handcrafted from unique pieces, making your garden more sustainable, beautiful, and truly one of a kind.
