Notice: 30th November 2021 

We are working away in studio as normal and dispatching orders daily. As order volumes increase in the run up to Christmas, we have put together some information that we hope is helpful.

 

Dispatch Times

  • The average turnaround on orders is 3-5 working days, but in the run up to Christmas due to additional volumes, this extends to 5-7 working days. We print and pack each print and card in studio and if a personalisation is added, this is added to the print so please allow extra time for personalisations.
  • If you are placing an order that you wish to receive by a specific date, please get in touch prior to ordering (email info@threelittlebirds.ie) to ensure that we can fill it in that timeframe. We do our best to get everything out as soon as possible and always try to meet specified date requests.
  • When an order is shipped, you will receive a shipping notification via email (or text if you chose that method). We ship all packages through An Post (standard post. Please get in touch prior to ordering if you require registered post). Deliveries are usually received (within Ireland) within 3-5 working days. There can sometimes be delays in the run up to Christmas. We have more information on our shipping page here.

 

Send Direct Option

  • We continue to offer our send direct option! If you would like us to post directly to friends/ family, enter their address as the shipping address (one shipping address per order).
  • We would advise to include text for us to include to let them know who it's from if they aren't already expecting a package from you! There is a Notes box at checkout that can be used for this! There is of course no charge to include this note.
