Can you make me a custom piece?
Hey! We get this question a lot :) Whether you've got a jacket you'd like reworked, a tapestry/fabric you want put onto something, or both... Please contact us at friandfro@gmail.com and include all pertinent info, such as your desired timeframe, budget, photos/descriptions of your textiles, your vision, etc. Please note that all bespoke and "made to order" pieces require 50% payment upfront and 50% upon completion.
What is your returns policy?
Generally, we do not give a refund or replacement if you simply change your mind. We take a lot of care to describe our products accurately, but if you think there is an issue with a product please contact us at friandfro@gmail.com and we will do our darndest to make it right - depending on the situation this could mean organising a refund, exchange, discount, or other.
What is this imperfection I see???
Our pieces are handmade using second-hand clothing, vintage and antique textiles, and thrifted fabrics. They've lived a life before you - Which means you may spy a spot, "flaw", or sign of age. This is only natural and adds to the uniqueness of your piece: perfectly imperfect.
Can I borrow a piece for a photoshoot? Can we collaborate? How do I stock F&F in my store?
We love having our work seen, meeting new people, and chatting about art and crafts. Please send all PR or similar questions to friandfro@gmail.com
How do I care for my F&F item?
We add care instructions to all our items, but as a general rule: when in doubt, be gentle! Hand washing/spot washing in cold water and air drying are great if they are options available to you.
