2. PRODUCTS & PERSONALISATION

All products sold by Darling Downs Decor are made to order

  colour differences

  details (names, spellings, colour choices) are correct 
  at the time of ordering
- We are not responsible for errors in personalisation 
  details submitted by the customer
- Minor variations in print quality, layer lines, or 
  colour tone are inherent characteristics of 3D printed 
  products and do not constitute a defect

If you are unsure about sizing, colours, or any product 
details, please contact us before placing your order at 
support@darlingdownsdecor.com.au
