Shipping

Quick processing times, friendly service, and free fabric samples with orders. At Bloomerie, we're doing our part to make online fabric shopping fun. Read on for details on our shipping policies and rates.

Order processing times

In-stock orders ship within 1-2 business days, excluding weekends and holidays. During major sales, please allow 3-7 days for order processing. We're a small but mighty shop so it will take extra time to ship orders during periods of high volume. We appreciate your patience and understanding.

See our shipping holidays here for a list of additional dates we don't ship.

Shipping rates

We use USPS to ship 90% of our packages. If you require shipping via UPS or FedEx (due to address limitations or personal preference), you must contact us before placing an order.

Our shipping rates are based on a combination of package weight and destination. Even though shipping rates continue to increase (USPS had 3 rate increases in 2022 and 3 more in 2023), we find using this combination allows us to keep shipping rates in line with actual costs.

Please note that for free shipping on orders $125+, order total must be met on each single order. We will not combine shipping on multiple orders to either meet the $125 minimum or refund shipping on subsequent orders.

At our discretion, high value ($$$) orders will require signature confirmation at the time of delivery. If you would like to add signature confirmation to your order, please contact us before ordering so we can add the cost to your shipping. The charge is $3.50. 

For those living in apartments, we have seen increased incidences of lost/misdelivered/stolen packages. We would encourage all apartment dwellers to request signature confirmation to make sure your package gets in your hands as we are not responsible for those packages. (Your mail carrier is.)

International Shipping Policies

International shipping rates do not include customs fees, duties, or taxes. You, the buyer, are responsible for all customs fees accessed on your order. Please familiarize yourself with your country's regulations prior to ordering so you understand your obligations once your package arrives. 

International orders that are received back by us and marked as undeliverable or refused for any reason will not be refunded shipping charges and will be assessed a 20% restocking fee.

Important notice to International buyers using shipping consolidators/reshippers

We've seen an increase in international buyers shipping orders through third party shipping consolidators and/or reshippers. Many of these companies have questionable practices and we strongly advise you to vet the company you are paying to repackage and reship your orders. 

To that end, once your package has been marked as accepted by USPS or other shipping provider, Bloomerie Fabrics is no longer responsible for your package. We will not offer refunds of any kind if any issue arises concerning your order. No exceptions. By purchasing from us, you agree to this and all other Bloomerie policies.
