I'm missing an item from my order, what do I do?

We're sorry there's an item missing from your order. Before contacting our Customer Care team, we recommend checking the following:

  • We may have sent your items in separate parcels so please check your emails to see if any of your items will be arriving separately. You will have recieved an email stating your order is "Partially Shipped" if this is the case.
  • The item(s) you ordered may have been out of stock - it's worth checking your emails (including your junk/spam) to see if we've sent you an email about this. We will have given 24hrs for you to respond with an alternative. If we didn't hear back from you, we will have sent your order without the out of stock item(s). This will be hand written on your invoice.
  • If you've ordered fabric please double check the quantity you ordered is correct according to our cutting methods. If a product is priced and sold by the quarter metre, and you ordered a quantity of '4', this will arrive measuring one metre, and be in one, singular, uncut piece. We don't cut fabric, trims or ribbon into multiple pieces. Every product that is sold per quarter, half, or full metre will be clearly displayed on the product page in multiple places.
  • If you have an item missing from your order, please let us know within 30 days of your order being delivered and we’ll do our best to help you.

I've bought a gift voucher, can I cancel or return it?

  • Online Only Gift Certificate: Yes, please contact our customer care and we cancel and refund your card.
  • In-Store Only Gift Certificate: Yes, please return to us in-store and we can refund via origical payment method.

Can I amend my order after I've placed it?

We try to be really quick at packing your order up, and we also run a brick and mortar store meaning our staff are always really busy, which means we can't make any changes once you've placed it.

However, in some circumstances we will do our best to be able to facillitate you if you contact us within 30 minutes of placing your order:

  • After 10am: Please call the floor where the majority of your products come from (i.e. Fabric, Craft or Wool).
  • After 5.30pm: Please email us at info@vibesandscribes.ie stating which product(s) you'd like changed/added. Please expect a call from us throughout the day to arrange payment if you owe for additional product(s).
