Actually, I’m hoping that it is more of an extended hiatus than a permanent closing!  My dream is to one day support artists who make miniatures by carrying them in my online shop.  But, for right now, I’ve come to the very difficult decision to close the store, at least temporarily.  Also, I will not be able to take special orders right now.  (If you have special orders outstanding, I’m still trying to get them!)

Clearance!

The store will shut down on September 30.  Until then, all miniatures will be discounted at least 50% off the retail price!  Click here to start shopping.

It’s Not a Goodbye…

This web site will not be shut down completely, only the shop will close.   I’ve loved miniatures since I played with my Fisher Price dollhouse when I was two years old!  So, I will be writing about miniature artists and staying involved in the dollhouse miniatures community through Cotton Ridge Create!, my blog.

I plan to keep in touch with you periodically through my Cotton Ridge Miniatures newsletter – when new content related to dollhouse miniatures is available on my blog, I will let you know!  If you are not a subscriber and are interested in receiving a periodic newsletter, please follow the link below.

A few of my customers just found my shop, and many of you have supported me since 1999 – I appreciate You all!

Thank you!

After a one-month hiatus, Cotton Ridge Miniatures is back on a new site with a few changes!  We hope you will enjoy the new “neighborhood” and find the changes beneficial.  I’ve outlined these below – please feel free to contact me with any questions or suggestions for improvement!

Shipping Cost

Shipping costs for online orders are currently automatically calculated at these flat rates:  $5.00 for U.S. orders and $10.00 for international orders.  These flat rates will be manually reduced if significantly more than actual postage cost to ship your package.

Flat rates do not apply to Special Orders. The shipping cost for Special Orders is Actual Postage plus $2.00, and will be calculated when your items arrive here and are ready to be shipped.

Shipping Time & Method

All items listed on the web site are in stock (unless I goofed up my inventory control).  Orders for in-stock items will be shipped within three business days via U.S Mail, and you will receive a shipping notification via email.  If for some reason your order is delayed I will contact you via email.

Special Orders

Please allow 2 - 8 weeks for delivery.  I will give you an estimated time of arrival when items are ordered.  Partial payment may be due before items are special ordered from my supplier.

Discounts

Except for handcrafted and artist-made miniatures, all items on this site have been discounted at least 10%.  No further discounts will be offered at this time.

Payment Methods Accepted

PayPal and Credit Cards Through Google Checkout
