Gift wrapping is available for an additional fee per item.

Bird Feeders are wrapped, packed and shipped like museum pieces. Tissue is placed inside the bowl to prevent hairline cracks then wrapped using cushioning foam. Then the piece is wraped with bubble wrap. It is then placed into a box and secured so it doesn't move around in shipment - not too tight though, just right. That box is placed inside a larger box (usually 14x14x10) and padding is placed on all 6 sides.

Wind chimes - each strand is wrapped with cushioning foam and then the entire chime is wrapped in bubble wrap. It is then placed into a 12x12x6 box and secured for shipment.

The glass bird feeders are created from ceiling fixtures from early last century, at a time when houses were not conditioned and light bulbs not energy efficient. The glass is thick and durable and able to withstand extreme temperatures.

The glass pieces in our wind chimes are tumbled in sand and water for 2-3 days creating a lovely sea or beach glass alternative. They are then drilled and strung on 20 lb fishing line. The tumbling and drilling eliminates flawed glass pieces. A final inspection is completed prior to stringing insuring that all glass pieces are smooth and tight.

Bird seed ornaments or gift boxes including bird seed ornaments that are also on sale cannot be returned and will not be refunded. The only time bird seed ornaments are on sale is when they are nearing end of freezer life, which also decreases shelf life. Thank you for your understanding.
