FAQ of The Build Your Own Mum

Many of the questions you may have can be answered on our FAQ page. These are FAQ for the Build Your Own Homecoming Mum or Garter.

Q: Why does the price change after I get to the checkout page?

A: As you build your mum you will be adding things to your liking. The price will increase as you add things to your mum. The prices are based on per item instead of per mum like the designer mums and garters. This IS a more expensive way to go, there’s no secret in that. If your cost gets high, you may choose a designer mum to stay on budget. Homecoming only comes once per year. The decision is all up to you!

Q: If I order the Build Your Own Mum or Garter, how long does it take?

A: We use the rule of 3. It takes 3 days to make and 3 days to ship. Standard answer -7-10 business days.  However the Build Your Own Homecoming Mums and Garters DO Qualify for Rush Ordering, just indicate the Rush in the order form below. If you’re local, you can save 2-3 days by using local pickup.

Q: The size options only let me choose up to a triple mum, I want to order a Quad or Mega Mum, can I do that?

A: The Mega Mums options are located on our Mega Mum page. The build your own mum is for garters and mums that are single, double and triple (heart). We do however have a build your own mega mum page coming!

Q: I have more questions but I don’t see them answered here.

A: Please read our FAQ Page if you have more questions about our mums. You may also call us to ask and we do accept phone orders as well

  • The Information

    Why this question? Our special needs students sometimes need their mums attached to walking or riding equipment or worn different ways. We ask to help the wearer the most.

    Why this question? At times we receive orders that customer making mistakes when ordering. Example: a mum for a boy or garter for a girl, or same sex name ribbons. Other times customers don't make a mistake and are ordering a LBGTQ mum or garter. We like to ensure that we are making the order correctly regardless.
