About The Shop
Who is Kafluffle? Why do they have a 'korner'?
Kafluffle is a single person, me. :3c
I made this shop because I like making things, and it's 'korner' instead of corner because I like alliteration. I'm a simple fool. Not to be confused with the other simple fool here, Pajama, the blue guy on the homepage. They're not me per say, they're more of a mascot or personification of a lack of impulse control.
You can learn more about me (Kafluffle) on my about page!

Will X be back in stock?
For the most part, yes!
I try to keep things in stock, but since I make almost everything myself from scratch it's hard to keep everything fully stocked.
If there is something that you would like restocked, feel free to contact me. I prioritize restocks on items that people request.
To stay in the loop you can subscribe to my mailing list where you will be notified about restocks.
Why is this shop so...colorful?
It's okay, you can say ugly.
Honestly, I made it like this because I was sick of seeing all the sterile white shops. Where's the personality? In an era with AI drop shipping and quick slop turnarounds I think it's important to have a human feel, and part of being human is not being perfect.
Do you use AI?
No.
Where are your products manufactured?
*Gestures to the clutter in my house. *
"Where" lol jokes.
My products are, for the most part, made by me, in my house, in Tampa Florida. You can rest easy knowing that you're supporting a real handmade small business. Where things are made with good ol' American blood sweat and tears. I'm half kidding, they're not biohazards, I mean, I've stabbed myself with a sewing needle before, but who hasn't? That's authenticity, right? No wait, come back I wash them I swear I wash them regardless.
While there are pros and cons to this type of setup, it does allow me to produce new items quickly and avoid whatever is happening with tariffs into the United States.
Ordering
Is ordering from this shop safe?
Yes.
Everything is handled through Shopify, a reputable commerce platform. Forms of payment are encrypted.
You are not directly handing over your information to me, and even if you were, I would immediately forget it. That's the same reason everybody in high school used to tell me the gossip, too bad I don't remember any of it, it could have be really good. What were we talking about?
Can my order be a gift / surprise?
Your order can be anything you want it to be. ✨🌈 (Yes)
My domestic packages are fairly nondescript, brown paper pillow boxes or brown paper envelopes with 'Kafluffle's Korner' stamped on them.
I don't actually include packing slips or invoices in shipments, so in theory every item is treated like a gift. Instead of packing slips I draw the ordered items on the back of my business cards. If you would like me to include a gift message simply add it as a special instruction for your order. I have decent handwriting and will include the handwritten note in the order at no extra charge, but if it's really long and includes hard to spell words I will not write it with all the love in my heart, you are only entitled to a smidge of it.
If you are ordering internationally, I use a teal poly mailer and regretfully have to state what is inside the package to comply with customs. So, to keep it a surprise, I recommend not reading the label. 👍
Shipping
Where do you ship from?
Kafluffle's Korner is based in the United States. All packages will ship from Tampa Florida.
Do you ship internationally?
Yes.
I currently use Shopify's international shipping information. If this causes issues for you, or does not support your country, reach out to me. In the past I have been able to successfully brute force my way through the post.
How much is shipping?
I wish I knew. Shipping prices change so frequently. Please refer to the shipping estimate at checkout. I do not charge a handling fee and try to provide the cheapest shipping options.
I offer free domestic shipping for orders over $75!
When do you ship?
I mail packages out every 1-3 days. Excluding Sundays when the post office is closed.
If your item has not been shipped in a week, please reach out to me.
Sustainability
Packaging
Items shipped domestically are shipped in a brown paper pillow box, you can remove the thermal shipping label and tape to recycle the box.
My business cards are a similar brown paper that my information is hand stamped on. If you don't want to keep them around, you can also recycle them.
Unfortunately, international packages are shipped in a poly mailer. This is due to the fact that poly mailers are much more durable than paper for a long trip.
Minky Fabric
The majority of my keychains are made with minky fabric, which is produced in the United States.
Minky is a polyester fabric, that means it is made of plastic. Unfortunately, in order to be sublimated the material needs to be a polyester, so I am unable to swap to a different fabric type.
To be as eco conscious as possible, I do not throw away a single minky scrap. I use the scraps for anything from stuffing to applique to new products. So, if you purchase an item for sale listed as 'upcycled' you are directly assisting me in my goal to prevent textile waste.
Wholesale, Partnerships and Collaborations
Do you sell products wholesale?
Yes.
If you are interested in stocking your shop with my products, send me a inquiry stating what products you are interested in, how many, and your desired timeframe. Your numbers do not need to be exactly accurate, but I do need to know enough in order to understand the scope of this agreement and provide accurate information.
Please understand that due to the nature of my products being handmade I require payment upfront. Payment plans can be discussed.
Do you sell on consignment?
Not Generally.
I will make an exception for businesses local to me in Tampa Florida. If you happen to be a local shop feel free to reach out to me. Maybe we can figure out a mutually beneficial arrangement.
Do you white-label products?
Uh, my products don't have any labels to begin with.
If you would like me to produce products with your company logo, I am able and willing to. They can be added to my products via sublimation, laser, embroidery, or an actual label tag. If this is something you would like for wholesale purchases, please include it in your inquiry.
Partnerships and Collaborations
I am always open to new opportunities.
If you are interested in working with me, please send me a message, I would love to see if we can work something out!
