Disclosure Policy

Since this website is a source of revenue for me, I want you to know that I participate in affiliate marketing programs. This means that I may incorporate links in my website to products used that allow you to purchase these products. I make a small commission on these sales. But please feel confident that I would never endorse a product that I do not truly like in order to make money.

Currently, I am a participant in the Amazon Services LLC Associates Program, an affiliate advertising program designed to provide a means for us to earn fees by linking to Amazon.com and affiliated sites.

Should you have questions about this, please feel free to contact me. Additional information can be found on the Federal Trade Commission (FTC) website.

Workshop Cancellation Policy

Our workshops require a great deal of pre-planning, including ordering supplies and tools, scheduling flights and time spent preparing for the workshop. When students ask to cancel or reschedule, we lose money. As a small business, we are unable to absorb these costs and still keep our class prices low. There is a $50 fee of the initial deposit that is non-refunable for all workshops. The remaining balance is due 60 days prior to the workshop. You can find this information in each individual workshop listed on the website. Registration for all workshops close 30 days prior to its start date. After that point, no refunds or rain checks will be given for student cancellation. Students wishing to move or cancel their spot prior to the 30 days may request a date/time change if space allows in another workshop. Traveling workshop student cancellations cannot be rescheduled. A refund will be issued prior to the 30 day cut off less the $50 fee. After the 30 day cut off, no refunds or rain checks will be given for student cancellation. If The Whimsical Chair cancels for any reason (weather, pandemic etc.) all students will receive a full refund. THERE ARE NO REFUNDS FOR ANY TRAVEL RELATED EXPENSES THAT STUDENT OR INSTRUCTOR MAY OCCUR.
