Shipping and Dispatch

1. I've placed my order, when will you dispatch it?
- Birch Studios is a one man band, it's just me, Grace! And so while I can't offer next day shipping, I do dispatch as quickly as I can, and the current dispatch timeline is 2-5 working days after order.

2. How quickly will my order get to me?
- If you're in the UK there are 2 options for shipping, 1st Class and 2nd Class, both are shipping options offered by Royal Mail, 1st Class aims to get your order to you in 1-2 working days after dispatch, while 2nd Class is 2-5 days after dispatch, so choose the option which is right for you. International shipping is Standard International shipping and aims to reach customers in 7-21 days after dispatch depending on how far you are from the UK. More details below
