Description

Our bouncy and bubbly kangaroo keepsake is a lovely way to remember the treasured baby grows and clothes of your little ones, allowing you to keep them forever. Made from any items that you send us, it's the perfect way to remember special moments or favourite items you just can't bear to part with.

Your kangaroo will be lovingly made by our team of memory makers, ensuring it is completely unique to you. As well as using your favourite items of clothing, there's a pouch section on the front where we can add personalised embroidery to make it even more special.

Make sure you send us enough material according to our guidelines. If the baby grows are premature or newborn size, we’ll definitely need the maximum. You can leave us special instructions at the checkout so we know which are your favourite items, and we’ll do our best to include them how you wish.

Sizes

  • Standard - approximately 30cm tall and 18cm wide. We suggest you send 4 - 6 baby grows or 1 - 4 items of older child’s clothing.
  • Large - approximately 45cm tall and 26cm wide. We suggest you send 8 - 10 baby grows or 2 - 6 items of older child’s clothing.

If you are having a large animal we need at least two items of slightly longer clothing (e.g. a bigger baby grow, a little blanket etc) as some of the pattern pieces are quite big. If you only have smaller items that is fine, but please be aware we may need to use more seams).

Please see the label on your finished keepsake for accurate washing guidelines. We would recommend that they are hand washed and dried naturally. Do not tumble dry. The stuffing is 100% CE tested polyester.

As these can be delicate items, often made from very well-worn clothes, they can not be CE tested and therefore come with the following: Warning: This product is not suitable for persons under the age of 14 years. Pattern is by Funky Friends Factory Ltd.

We get a lot of questions about the clothing which can be used. This should answer all your questions!

Types of Clothing: You can send us pretty much any clothing.  We can work with all kinds of materials - if they are delicate/knitted then sometimes we back them with another fabric for stability. We struggle to work with very chunky knits and we can’t use plastic rainwear or swimwear. On the whole we can do most things, however the wider the variety of fabrics the less ‘uniform’ the finished item will look.

Notes: Please do tell us in a note with the clothes any special requirements you have so that we can make sure they appear prominently on the finished item. Please do tell us if you want a bit of everything using. If you don’t, and we don’t need it all, then we will make a decision about what to use and will send back any uncut items. Similarly, it is really important to let us know if you are sending in certain items which are particular favourites, or if you want bits of detailing etc using in a particular way. We will always do our best to adhere to these requests, although it may not always be possible. 

Quality: Obviously the most worn items of clothing are often the favourites and we love these. However, please be aware that the more stretched/worn/washed something is, the more delicate the finished item will be as stitches are more likely to pull into little tiny holes on seams. Also, more won/stretchy fabric tends to look more stretched – obviously! This doesn’t mean it is over-stuffed, it is just a consequence of the fabric. We think it still looks lovely, but you just need to be aware that it may look more different to the pictures on the product pages. There are lots of customer photos on our Facebook page so please do look there for more real life examples. We strongly encourage customers to look at the customer photos so that you can get a good idea of the variety in appearance of the products.

Offcuts: We do keep remnants of fabric for a short amount of time after dispatching your order, so if you aren’t happy, or want something back, you need to tell us quickly. Once your order is dispatched then we usually recycle remaining fabric within a few weeks.

How do I send them in? Once you have placed your order you will receive a confirmation email with postage instructions. Please follow the instructions! It is really important to make sure the order reference and a senders address is on the outside of the parcel.

Orders placed using the Express services can be completed within 1 week of us receiving the clothing, depending on the level chosen.

We will send you a notification email when your order has been dispatched. The time your order takes to arrive will depend on the delivery option you choose. All personalised keepsakes are sent via fully tracked and signed for 24hr DPD service (delivery only made on working days).

We take great care in packaging your order using the necessary materials according to its weight, size and how fragile it is.

What do I do if my order arrives damaged?

If any item you receive from us arrives damaged, please contact us as soon as possible on 0333 444 9144 or by email at info@lovekeepcreate.co.uk. We will then advise you on the best course of action.

Please do not return a damaged order to us without contacting us first.

Returns Policy

We cannot accept personalised items back unless they are actually faulty. Please note that there is a wide variation in how the keepsakes come out, due to the very different natures of the fabrics we receive and the final item may well not look exactly like the pictures on our product pages. If you are not happy with your order for any reason please get in touch straight away to discuss it.

Non personalised items can be returned in their original condition and packaging within 14 days of delivery. We will then either replace the item or, if you prefer, offer a full refund of the goods less the original delivery charges. All return postage is the responsibility of the purchaser and we recommend that you obtain a proof of postage receipt from the Post Office.
