Ordering
Are stubby coolers and stubby holders the same thing?
Yes. On this website, stubby cooler and stubby holder are two names for the same personalised drink holder. Choose 6mm standard coolers or 3mm foldable coolers, then personalise the design with your names, date, artwork or logo.
How do I place an order?
For our ready-to-personalise designs, go to our Etsy shop, pick a design and add your names/date/colours in the personalisation box at checkout. For fully custom work, start a brief on our Custom Orders page.
Why Etsy and not straight from this site?
Orders are placed through our Etsy shop. This website lets you browse examples and send an enquiry; Etsy handles checkout.
What's the minimum order quantity?
There is no minimum order. You can order a single cooler. See Etsy for pricing.
Can I combine multiple designs in one order?
Yes — you can mix designs and names within a single order. Useful for weddings where bridal party, groomsmen and guests each get a different print. Flag it in the personalisation notes or the custom brief.
Custom & bespoke work
Can I send my own artwork?
Yes. Print-ready PDF, AI, SVG, PSD, PNG or high-resolution JPEG (300dpi at print size). If it needs adjusting or recreating to work on the medium, we'll tell you what's possible and what it'll cost before touching it.
I don't have a design — can you create one?
Send your names, date, theme and colours. We send a digital proof before production and allow a reasonable number of artwork revisions.
Will I see a proof before anything is printed?
Always. Every custom order gets a digital proof for written approval. Once you sign off, production starts — not before.
Can I order a physical sample?
There is no minimum order, so you can order a single cooler. See Etsy for pricing.
Turnaround & shipping
How long does a standard order take?
Production takes 7–10 business days after artwork approval. Shipping time is additional. See Etsy for the shipping options and estimates for your address.
How long do custom orders take?
Production takes 7–10 business days after artwork approval. Shipping time is additional. Wedding Favours and Laser Gifts are not currently available.
Do you ship Australia-wide?
Yes, every state and territory. Tracked Australia Post standard and express available at checkout. You get a tracking number at dispatch.
Do you ship internationally?
Australia-wide as standard. International shipping is available on request — give us the destination and we'll quote it.
My wedding is in a few weeks — is there still time?
Message us with your required arrival date, quantity and delivery postcode before ordering. Production takes 7–10 business days after artwork approval, with shipping additional; a short deadline is not a guaranteed delivery promise.
Materials & care
What are your stubby coolers made of?
Standard stubby coolers are 6mm thick; foldable coolers are 3mm thick.
Will the print fade or peel?
We do not promise that a print will never fade or wear. Contact us for care guidance for your particular cooler, or if you have a concern about its condition.
Can I wash my stubby cooler?
Contact us for the care instructions for your particular cooler before washing it. Machine-wash suitability is not confirmed here.
Are laser-cut favours and gifts available?
Not yet. Wedding Favours and Laser Gifts are coming soon; our current range is personalised stubby coolers.
Returns & refunds
Can I return a personalised order?
Personalised and custom-made items are generally non-returnable for change-of-mind, because they can't be resold. This is standard across print-on-demand — but see the next question for what we always cover.
What if something is wrong with my order?
If the issue is our fault — wrong artwork, print defect, damaged in transit, or a name we were supplied correctly but misspelled — we remake and ship the replacement at our cost. Message us within 7 days of delivery with a photo of the issue.
What if I provided the wrong name or date?
We print exactly what's in the approved proof. If a typo came through your personalisation, we can't refund — but we'll always offer a discounted reprint to put it right. Double-check proofs carefully before approving.
Payment & privacy
How do payments work?
Orders are paid through Etsy at checkout. For a custom enquiry, confirm the order details and payment arrangements with us before committing; submitting a brief does not place an order.
Is my payment information secure?
Payment is handled through Etsy checkout. Do not include card details in our enquiry form.
What do you do with my personal information?
We use your contact details only to fulfil your order and follow up. We don't sell, rent or share with third parties except what's required to ship the order. Full details in our Privacy Policy.
