Made to order

Every doodelo portrait is printed to order by our print partner, Gelato — there’s no shelf stock. Once you approve your portrait and complete checkout, your order is sent to production within minutes, then printed, quality-checked, and dispatched.

Delivery times

Every print is made to order, so these times run from the moment you order to the moment it reaches your door, production included. They are calendar days, and they are estimates from our print partner:

  • Standard — 3–13 days for a framed print, 3–14 days unframed
  • Express — 3–11 days on a framed 12×16 and 3–8 days on an unframed 18×24 or 24×32, the prints it is offered on (chosen at checkout)
  • Alaska and Hawaii — standard only, 10–19 days

The speeds you can actually choose, and the days each one takes, are shown on the shipping step at checkout before you pay.

You’ll receive a tracking link by email as soon as your order ships.

If your order is running late

If we find we can’t get your order to you within the window shown at checkout, we’ll email you before it ends with a new estimate and a choice: cancel for a full refund, or keep waiting. If the new estimate is no more than 30 days later and you don’t reply, we’ll carry on. If we can’t give you a new estimate, or it’s more than 30 days later, we’ll cancel and refund your order unless you tell us you’d like to wait. Refunds go to your original payment method.

Shipping costs

Shipping is quoted at checkout for the exact print and address you’ve entered, and the price on the summary is the price you’re charged. Our current rates are:

  • Standard shipping is $5.99
  • Express is $12.99, on a framed 12×16 and an unframed 18×24 or 24×32, and is shown alongside standard at checkout
  • Alaska and Hawaii: standard only, at $5.99

Tracking your order
