Shipping & returns

Eco-Friendly Practices

We are a small, woman-owned and run business operating out of a solar-powered facility in Southern Oregon. We also double as a used packaging drop-off site for local residents and businesses. We use 100% post-consumer recycled packaging, home compostable paint pouches and recyclable glass and aluminum bottles for our products.

We give back by donating to "One Tree Planted" and "Rogue Climate" every month and continue to donate to various humanitarian and environment causes throughout the year.

Generally, all orders are shipped using zero-waste packaging and materials. Our shipping department uses paper stuffing and biodegradable paper tape, with the exception of shipping glass, as noted in the product descriptions for products made of glass.

Return Policies

We offer full refunds on any defective or damaged products. We also offer full refunds (less shipping costs) on elective returns if the product is in re-sellable condition and the return has been made within 3 months of the purchase.

Shipping Policies

Free Standard Shipping on orders above $100 for U.S. customers.

Orders containing in-stock items are typically processed within 2 business days from when we receive the order during operating hours. If a purchase contains out-of-stock or pre-order items, we will ship the order once ALL items are available and it can be fulfilled completely. Once an order is shipped, you will receive a confirmation email with tracking information; please save this email in case of any issues with your order.

After a package leaves our facility, it becomes the responsibility of the contracted carrier to get it to you. Any issues or problems that arise must be resolved with them directly. For USPS orders in particular, we've be instructed that it is best for the recipient to first speak with their local post office regarding any concerns.

Additionally, you can monitor your shipment or file a claim for lost mail with each of the carriers we use: U.S. Postal ServiceUPS, or FedEx.

We work hard to ensure orders are processed and received as quickly as possible, but unfortunately, we're unable to locate lost or delayed packages. We recognize errors happen and ask for your patience in those circumstances, but we will not ship replacement items or issue refunds until a formal determination is made by the carrier. Please use the resources outlined above to seek resolution if needed.

 

International Shipping

If you’re ordering from EuropeCanadaAustralia or New Zealand, please click the appropriate link to visit the distributor for your region. We normally ship USPS International for international orders, and the order typically takes 2-3 weeks for delivery. Due to global constraints, shipping times may vary, and additional delays can occur due to customs inspections. Since we never know if a package will be held at customs, any import fees or taxes applied to the delivery must be paid by the recipient.

PRODUCT FAQs

What are the ingredients in the Natural Acrylic Paint?
The acrylic is a unique formulation that we have spent years working on with many chemists, so the specific ingredients are a proprietary recipe until patented. I hope you understand that we cannot share specific ingredients, however we can say that ingredients are plant-based and non-toxic. 

Is it biodegradable?
The natural acrylic paint and medium does not biodegrade quickly or home compost because it is meant to be a durable, permanent paint. It will break down over a long period of time like conventional acrylic paint. It is made with a plant-based resin, natural or non-toxic pigments and most importantly no carcinogenic or hormone disrupting additives that are in conventional acrylic paints - here is a blog post that goes into more detail.

Natural Acrylic Paint does not off-gas highly toxic fumes when it dries. When washed down the drain it can be safely filtered from water systems via city filtration septic systems and when thrown away can go into trash to start its journey of breaking down. 

If you prefer a biodegradable paint then a
better option would be our Complete Eco-friendly Oil Paint Kit, our Natural Watercolor Kit, Natural Earth Paint Kit, or any recipes on our website (gouache, egg tempera, casein paint, etc.). These paints will be permanent and archival as well (if kept indoors away from elements) but if they are thrown away or left out in the elements, they will turn back to earth.

Can I mix it with conventional acrylics?
Yes, they mix perfectly with conventional acrylics.

Will you ever offer it in larger quantities?
Yes, larger 150 ml tubes of Acrylik paint are available in 4 colors. Please let us know what other colors you would like to see . We will also be offering squeeze bottles of fluid paint as well.

Are they archival and lightfast?
Yes, absolutely.

What is the finish / how do they dry? Gloss, semi-gloss, matte, satin?
It varies slightly depending on the pigment used but most dry to a gloss finish and a few dry satin/matte. 

How are they different from regular acrylics?
They are made with a plant-based resin instead of petroleum-based; they are made with natural pigments instead of heavy metal or petrochemical-based pigments; they do not contain harsh chemical additives, hormone disruptors or carcinogenic additives.

Can the paints be thinned down with water to make fluid acryliks?
Yes

Why do you call it “Acrylik” if it's not plastic?
We changed the spelling of "Acrylic" slightly so that customers would recognize the "style" of paint that this is, but know that it's not the same thing.

How long does it take to dry?
The same speed as conventional acrylics - about 10-40 min., depending on the humidity level you're in. For painting fabric, we recommend letting it cure for 24 hours before putting it in the wash.

Does the acrylic paint work as a permanent fabric paint?
The Acryliks (either the pre-mixed tubes or the Natural Acylik Medium mixed with the Earth & Mineral Pigments) will be permanent once dry. For textiles, we recommend a full 24 hour drying time before washing or wearing. But at that point, the paint will be sweat resistant. When washing, we recommend washing by hand or on a gentle cycle with cold water and lay flat or hang dry. How to Video

Our Natural Acrylic Medium is an excellent choice to make permanent fabric paint. It is a clear medium so you can mix any of our natural pigments with it to create the colors of your choice. Here is a mixing tutorial. We also have a tutorial on making a more traditional and ancient, permanent, natural fabric paint with natural pigments and soy beans.

Love this paint.

I’m a novice at creating art. I loved this “natural akrylic paint” for a few reasons. First the color “scarlet red” is clear , bright and gorgeous. Second it has no smell, it doesn’t aggravate my allergies or my sensitivities. Third , it flows and handles well. Fourth comes in a large tube (59ml) which is going to last me a very long time. Although, given how much I like it, maybe not as long as I anticipated! My only criticism’, more like a request, is as an amateur I would have liked the option of purchasing a smaller tube.

It's an amazing product!

I purchased Burnt Sienna and Gold Mica to paint on fabric. It's amazing! The colors are true to pictures and are permanent (I washed my fabric swatches)! A huge plus - these are not toxic! I'll be buying all of them! Please don't discontinue them ever.
