Almost anything. Seriously.
My pieces are made to be personal, unique, and a little chaotic in the best way possible. If you have an idea, send it my way — chances are I can make it happen.

This varies depending on the quantity ordered and how many custom orders I currently have in my queue.
Typical turnaround times are:
Under 5 items: usually ready within 1–3 days after the design is approved
Larger orders: typically 5–7 days
Bulk event/wedding favors: may take a little longer depending on quantity
For example, my largest custom order so far was 50 custom wine stoppers for a wedding, which took about 10 days to complete.
When we review your design concept together, I’ll always give you a more exact timeline before starting your order.
-
Absolutely!
For custom pieces, I will send you a design mock-up or concept for approval before I begin creating your item. This gives you a chance to:
Request changes
Adjust colors or wording
Swap design elements
Make sure everything looks exactly how you envisioned it
I want you to love your piece before I even start making it.
Please note: once a custom design has been approved and production has started, major changes may not be possible depending on the item.

Not at this time.
Artful Chaos & Tiny Acts of Defiance is currently an online and event-based shop, but we regularly participate in local artisan fairs, vendor events, and pop-up markets.
You can find upcoming events and show dates on our calendar page — we’d love to meet you in person!
-
Please ship the ashes in a small waterproof container (plastic or glass jar) sealed inside a ziplock bag for extra protection during transit.
Once your order is placed, I will send my mailing address to you via email.
Your custom bracelet will be started as soon as the ashes arrive. ❤️
