Owner

Merchandiseology is the art and science of creating beautiful things — by hand, by heart, and by design. Every product in my shop is crafted with intention and care, whether it’s a cozy crochet piece, a handmade wreath, or a printable designed to inspire creativity.

I believe in slow creation, thoughtful details, and the joy that comes from making something truly one-of-a-kind. Merchandiseology is where craftsmanship meets creativity — a space that celebrates handmade work, creative growth, and the little details that make life feel more beautiful.

Each item is made or designed by me, Andrea, in Sandusky, Ohio. Thank you for supporting small-batch creativity and handmade artistry.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

Do you offer discounts for local customers?

Yes! If you live nearby and would like to pick up your product (physical product, like a wreath or a crocheted item), I can offer a discount equal to the cost of shipping. Please contact me through Etsy Messages before purchasing, and I’ll create a custom listing with the adjusted price for you.

Sizing details

All sizing information is included directly in each product listing. You’ll find exact measurements for height, width, and depth, length, etc. in the description section of every lsiting. If you need additional details, feel free to message me before purchasing.

Care instructions

Care instructions for each crocheted item are included within its individual listing.

For wreaths, gently spot clean only (avoid soaking or spraying). When not in use, store upright in a plastic bag or wreath container to help preserve the shape and prevent dust buildup. Keep away from direct moisture and extreme heat for best results.

Gift wrapping and packaging

I don’t typically offer gift wrapping, as each wreath and handmade item is securely packaged for safe shipping. However, if you’d like gift wrapping or special packaging, I can accommodate this for an additional charge—just message me before purchasing so I can create a custom listing that includes the added cost.

All orders are shipped in plain, unmarked boxes with no external branding or wording that reveals the contents—perfect for keeping gifts a surprise.

Custom and personalized orders

I don’t currently offer personalization on existing items. However, if you’re looking for a particular wreath or handmade piece to be created, please contact me through Etsy Messages to discuss what you have in mind. I’m happy to see if it’s something I can make for you.

How do you handle shipping and packaging?

Shipping is included in the price of each product, so there are no additional shipping costs at checkout. Every wreath and handmade item is carefully packaged to ensure it arrives safely, and all boxes are plain with no external markings that reveal what’s inside—perfect for gift-giving.

If you’re local and would like to pick up your item instead of having it shipped, please contact me through Etsy Messages before purchasing, and I’ll create a custom listing with the adjusted price.

If you’d like gift wrapping or special packaging, I can accommodate that for an additional charge—just reach out before purchasing so I can update the listing for you.
