Here you can find some informations on the figurines, shipping, commissions and more. 
How do I care for the figurines?

Don't put them outdoors, and avoid permanent contact with sunlight. Also don't expose your figurine to extreme heat (110°C or higher) IMORTANT: Even after baking it can happen in some cases that there are some remnants of platiciser. The figurine can react with some plastic types (PS, PVC). It is recommended to avoid contact with such materials. Starting from August 2023 all figurines will be varnished on the underside to avoid a reaction with specific plastic types.

Use a soft and dry brush to clean the figurine. Delicate elements are flexible, but I still recommend not to bend, or hold the figurine on delicate elements. Please don't drop in and don't squeeze it.

What material do you use and how do you make your figurines?

I use a polymer clay (Fimo professional & effect) which hardens in the oven. After baking it is elastic to hard, but still not indestructible. I also use tin foil, wire, pastel chalk, mica pigments or glitter for some creations. I always use gloss varnish for shiny elements and matte varnish on painted areas. Realistic replicas are always painted with high quality Acrylics and sealed with a varnish. All my figurines are handsculpted by me. I use different tools to sculpt my figurines.
It takes me 30 minutes to many hours to sculpt my figurines.

How much do guinea pig or pegapiggy figurines cost?

Each figurine is priced individually. It all depends on how long I've worked on a creation, on the size, and complexity. There is a rough price overview for custom-made piggies in the menu.
You can see the price of all sold creations in my shop. WeeWheekys cost 12€ or 13€.

Something broke off, what now?

Please contact me first. I don't take responsibility for damages caused by wrong handling. Broken elements can be glued back on, but please talk with me first so I can help you the best possible. Not every glue is suitable for this material, and can cause more damage.

Are the figurines toys?

Those are collectibles, and shouldn't be given to children to play with. They are quite small and can be swallowed (choking hazard!). You know your child the best, so if you think that he/she can handle it with resposiblility then it's up to you. But I don't take responsibility if anything gets damaged.

Commissions & Custom-Made Orders

I usually reserve commission spots for a quarter. I don't accept new customs when all spots are full. I inform about the commission opening under "HOME", and through my newsletter. If you want to place an order for a commission please get in contact with me, and I'll provide some further information. Please have a look at the informations for custom-made creations first.

How do I pay?

You can select your desired payment option after filling out your address.
You can also pay in instalments. You have to select that option and I will send you a PayPal invoice. Then you can choose how much and how often you want to pay.
All payment options are listed at the very bottom of my website.

How big are your figurines?

Sizes vary. My usual pegapiggies from the pegapig land are usually between 2.5cm and 4cm. Bigger piggies are up to 9 cm. WeeWheekys are under 2cm small.

Do you only make guinea pigs?

No, I'm open for other animals/objects too. Pegapigs are just my main feature and the heart of pegapigsDESIGNS.

How much is shipping & how do you ship?

Shipping depends on the country you live in. The exact price will be visible when you have all your items in the cart.

International tracked shipping 8.50€ with liability up to 20€.

All orders are usually shipped within two weeks, but exceptions are possible especially with unexpected events happening around the world.
I pack everything securely with extra cardboard for extra strength. Shipping is usually very safe. However I don't take responsibility for lost packages, or damages caused by the postal service. It is very important that you give me the correct address to avoid any additional costs caused by a wrong shipping address. You will have to defray costs in that case.
I am happy to figure things out with you if anything happens.

Germany: ~1-4 business days
GB: ~ 3-7 business days

What is "SHIPPING PAID"

If you buy one figurine from my update, and then you decide to buy another one a few minutes later or a few days later, then you can select "SHIPPING PAID".
However this only works if your previous order hasn't already been shipped, and can be shipped together with your new order.
