Frequently asked questions

How long does an order take?

Standard ships in 3–7 business days after you approve the 3D preview. Our fastest option is Rush, which ships in 3 business days. Your ship-by date and the carrier's estimated delivery window are shown at checkout.

Can I personalise every product?

Most products support text personalisation — a name, a date or a short message. Any product page that shows a 'Personalise' field is customisable. Products with fixed geometry (coasters, holders) are not.

What materials do you print with?

Every MadeDear piece is printed in PLA — a bio-based, food-safe plastic with a warm matte finish. It's biodegradable in industrial composting and safe around the home.

Are your prints food-safe?

Products marked with the food-safe icon (like the Kids Stacking Blocks) are printed in food-safe PLA and hand-finished without any chemical sealants. Contact us if you need a food-contact certification for a specific piece.

Do you ship internationally?

We currently ship across the EU and the UK. Standard is €4.95, Express is €14.95, Rush is €24.95 — all-in, with tax calculated at checkout.

What if my order arrives damaged?

Email hello@madedear.com within 14 days with a photo and we'll reprint or refund — no questions. Because everything is made to order, we don't offer change-of-mind returns.

Can I upload my own 3D model?

Not yet — but it's on our roadmap. If you have a specific piece in mind, use the Contact page to start a bespoke commission conversation.

How do I care for a MadeDear object?

PLA pieces are safe with a soft damp cloth. Avoid dishwashers hotter than 50°C and direct sunlight above 60°C.
