Refreshed Design's website may use "cookies" to collect information, but basic information about your computer and its connection to the Internet (for example, the name of the domain from which you access the Internet, the date and time you access the website, etc.). The generic information collected by cookies is used only to assist in site management and development for statistical purposes. See cookie policy.

Your use of this website does not constitute or establish a contractual relationship with Refreshed Designs.

All rights reserved. You may not use our Protected Information without Refreshed Design's express written consent.
(5) Use of Images & Downloads
Most of the images and all of the downloadable/printable products on this site and my social media sites are my own, and I'm very happy to share these with you, but please give credit and link back. The images and downloads are not for commercial use or redistribution. While I have taken care on this site to credit others' images properly when used, if I have not done so correctly, please let me know and I’ll make it right.
(6) Payments
You represent and warrant that if you are purchasing something from us, (i) any credit information you supply is true and complete, (ii) charges incurred by you will be honored by your bank or credit card company, (iii) you will pay the charges incurred by you at the posted prices, including any applicable taxes, and (iv) if your initial payment method is dishonored, you will still pay the incurred charges, including any surcharge we may incur due to the dishonored payment.
(7) Refund and Return Policy
Since all products are immediate-access online courses and electronic downloads, we do not provide refunds.
(8) Affiliate Links
I sometimes work with affiliates and receive affiliate income from products I promote. These companies and products will always be from craftspeople, artists and brands that I genuinely admire and feel good about. They will align with the natural, simple and sustainable standards I adhere to. Using affiliate links does not cost you anything; but it does help support my efforts in providing you quality information.
