Shop Policies
I do not accept returns or exchanges. Please let me know if you have any issues with your order and we can find a solution!

I typically ship same or next day, if purchases are made after 4pm EST it will be shipped out next day. If there are any delays with shipping and it cannot be fulfilled same or next day, you will be made aware.

For all international orders, you, the customer are responsible for any customs fees as these are per country. And when purchasing from Etsy internationally you are agreeing to this.

International shipping is offered, but please keep in mind some international orders can take up to 5/6 weeks. In addition, due to COVID-19 the post office will sometimes have delays. Feel free to follow up with me if you have any questions regarding that and I'll be happy to help.

If my packages are taking longer to be scanned, please understand this is because my post office has limited hours of operation. Where applicable, I will try to ensure there are not delays because of this.

For lost or stolen packages marked as delivered, check with neighbors and places it could've been left by the post. If presumed stolen, please file a police report and where it applies I will file with USPS. I do not ship my packages at this time with insurance, unless international.

All my items come from a pet-friendly, smoke free home. All my items have had a previous life before coming into my care, so please keep this in mind.


All items are preloved unless otherwise stated. In cases where the item is new with tags or deadstock, this will be listed clearly. Like most vintage items, minimal wear is typical and is to be expected as these beauties have lived a very beautiful life.

New images are taken in natural light with minimal editing to very lightly brighten the image. Please keep in mind that colors may appear different on different screens. I attempt to describe and photograph in such a way to keep the discrepancies to a minimum. For my old images, these are in the process of being rephotographed—slowly but surely!—but if you'd prefer to see it in natural light sooner than my pace please message me and I'll be happy to provide you with images that are in better lighting.

All items are measured by myself or my partner, please keep in mind measurements are approximate. If you have any questions regarding this let me know and I'd be happy to send additional images or give you an idea of where the measurements were taken on the garment. For measurements, they are taken while lying flat so for bust, hips, pit to pit, waist, etc. these measurements are to be doubled. I try to provide as much detail with sizing, but please keep in mind vintage sizing can vary greatly from modern sizing and every body type is a bit different. To ensure best fit, please compare to your own personal measurements.


In an effort to be more sustainable all my packaging is secondhand. All items come wrapped, with a ribbon, string or bow and a personalized thank you card. Each package is unique and no two are alike as This is free of charge and not a gift wrap option. In addition, we will sometimes use secondhand boxes or mailers, these can have amazon logos or writing on the box. if you do not want this and would like a new box (and it applies to the order—many items are shipped in regular mailers) please let me know as soon as possible so I can accommodate accordingly.

Lastly, I am here to answer any and all questions and to provide you with the absolute best experience possible. I try to answer any and all messages as soon as possible and am readily available for whatever needs you may have.

Lastly, The Velveteen Rabbit Vintage is moving into the handmade and artisanal market. We hope to begin selling candles, handmade rugs, and embroidered items shortly and will keep you updated as we add these items to the shop.

I try to list daily, but follow my instagram @thevelveteenrabbitvintage for shop updates, behind the scenes and general vintage-y things!

vibe on,
Hannah
