5 out of 5 starsI love these cards and gift cards. They are of a special place and Whimsy/Mira Coleman created them as a special order. They were shipped and arrived right on time. I have loved everything I have ordered from Whimsy/Mira Coleman.

5 out of 5 starsI love these cuffs/bracelets that were made by Whimsy. It was a custom job where I asked for a specific location and she created it exactly how I wanted it to be. Thank you for your creativity and willingness to totally work with the customer.

5 out of 5 starsI loved the ornament created by Whimsy Mira Coleman. She created it specifically per my request of a specific island in Penobscot Bay. The quality is good and I really appreciate her cooperation to work with me and create a very personal item.

5 out of 5 starsThe bracelets are beautiful and great quality. Even better, perhaps, was the customer service. When the original item sent did not have exactly the portion of the map I was hoping for, I contacted Mira and she promptly got back to me, showing me three different options that I could choose from. The replacement was made and sent extremely quickly. Much appreciated and highly recommended!

5 out of 5 starsMira is an absolute joy to work with, this is my second order of these beautiful ornaments. My husband and his sister both love this special gift, a little piece of Maine that is so close to their hearts. Mira makes stunning handcrafted ornaments, they have arrived on time and in perfect condition just as described on her site. Both orders have met my expectations and beyond. I will definitely be sharing her store with our other friends and family who love Maine as well!

Frequently asked questions
Sizing details
Standard cuffs are 6 inches long and come in four widths.
Petite Adult cuffs are 5 inches long and may be available in ¾ and 1 inch widths. Petite cuffs generally fit 9 year olds to petite adults.
Tiny cuffs are 4 inches long and come in 1 inch width only.
We use a light enough gauge metal base so that buyer can adjust to comfort.
Custom and personalized orders
We love custom orders but our time is very limited for designing new templates. If your request consists of places we have on file then we are happy to accommodate as a "special" order.
Generally speaking- we will send you images of possibilities (up to five) until you find the template image (in cuff, tile, buckle or ornament) you love!
Gift wrapping and packaging
If you order an item as a gift with a message, we will send you an image of the item and message as packaged prior to shipping.
If you order an ornament or tile boxed, we ribbon-tie the box so that it opens easily.
We can gift-box most items; 2" cuffs may not be boxed but we can enclose a folded box if requested.
Our outer packaging is usually a secure, sealed, poly-padded pouch.
Care instructions
Cuffs are water-resistant but not waterproof. We suggest that you care for your cuff as you do any fine jewelry.
Wholesale availability
General: We welcome wholesale orders to brick & mortar with a minimum order.
Lead time: Depending upon quantity, complexity and type of item ordered, our 2023 lead time runs anywhere between 14 days (cards) - 21 days (cuffs) to 60 days (resin products).
Chart templates: We often use vintage charts and can work closely with you to finalize the template(s) which best suit your needs. Map templates also available.
Shipping: We will calculate your USPS shipping cost included in invoice.
