First off, thank for stopping by our website. May the creative vibes spread your way!

Just in case you are thinking of buying something from our shop here are all the details you probably would like to know. if you have any questions or need any additional info feel free to reach out via email info@thepaintsesh.com


COVID-19

Will there be delays due to COVID-19?

Unfortunately yes. Currently, the print on demand service I use to fulfill your orders is operating at lower capacity to ensure the safety of their employees.

Since most of our products are made to order, it could take up to 3 to 5 weeks for them to be prepared before they are shipped out. Apparel and custom cut and sew pieces take the longest, but luckily things like posters and face covers are shipped out in less than a week. Paint Kits, Pins & some stickers are shipped from our home base, so those go out right away!

After fulfillment, you will receive an email when a shipping label is created for your order and is ready to be shipped out.

Thank you for your continued support during these crazy times. Stay safe my painting peeps!

If you have any questions or concerns, please reach out to info@thepaintsesh.com
