Printed to order
Printed to order
Every item is printed for you by our print partners: Gelato for calendars and prints, and Printful for the mug. Where possible it is made close to where you live. Nothing is made until it is ordered, so there is no unsold stock to waste.
Delivery and returns
Delivery and returns
Free UK delivery on orders over £40 (otherwise £3.99). We ship to the EU and worldwide too. If anything arrives damaged or misprinted, we will replace it or refund you.
Orders and delivery
When will my order be printed and sent?
Everything in our shop is printed on demand, which means each item is made after you order it. Most orders are printed within 2–5 working days and then shipped. How long delivery takes after that depends on where you live and which shipping option you choose. Production and delivery can take longer at busy times, especially in the weeks before Christmas, so if you're buying a gift, please order early.
Calendars and art prints are made by one print partner and the mug by another. If you order both kinds, they may arrive in separate parcels.
Where do you deliver?
We deliver to the countries listed at checkout. You'll see the delivery cost before you pay. Our print partners make each order as close to you as they can, so your order often doesn't have to cross a border. Some items may still be made in another country.
Can I track my order?
Yes. When your order ships, we'll email you its tracking details, if the carrier provides them. Tracking can sometimes take a few days to show any movement, and international parcels can go quiet for a while as they pass through customs. If your order hasn't arrived by the estimated date, email us and we'll look into it.
Returns and problems
My item arrived damaged, faulty or misprinted. What should I do?
We're sorry. Please email contact@thewizardwonders.com as soon as you can. Include your order number and a photo of the problem. We'll send you a free replacement or give you a full refund, whichever you prefer, and you won't have to pay to send anything back. This doesn't affect your legal rights.
Can I return something if I change my mind?
Yes. For physical items, you can cancel for any reason within 14 days of the day your order arrives. Email us within that time, then send the item back unused and in its original condition within 14 days of telling us. Please email before you post anything, so we can give you the return address. We'll refund the item and the standard delivery cost within 14 days of receiving the item back, or of receiving proof that you've posted it. Unless the item is faulty, the cost of posting it back is yours.
Digital downloads are different. They're delivered instantly, so once you start a download you can no longer cancel. If a file is faulty or won't open, though, we'll always fix or replace it.
The calendar
What's the difference between the UK and US calendar editions?
Both editions of The Wizard's Sky Calendar 2027 have the same twelve paintings. Each one shows every night's Moon phase as it looks at 10 pm, and the exact times of each New Moon, First Quarter, Full Moon and Last Quarter. Both are Wire-O bound along the top edge, ready to hang. The differences between them are:
- UK & Europe edition: A3 (29.7 × 42 cm). Weeks start on Monday. Times are in UK time (GMT, or BST in summer) on the 24-hour clock. It shows bank holidays for England and Wales. In most of mainland Europe, add one hour to the printed times.
- US edition: 11 × 16.5 in. Weeks start on Sunday. Times are in US Eastern Time on the 12-hour clock. It shows US federal holidays.
Because of the time difference, an event that happens late in the evening or around midnight can fall on a different date in each edition. Each edition is correct for its own time zone.
How accurate is the astronomy?
We take it very seriously. Every Moon phase time is checked against the US Naval Observatory's published data. Eclipse details come from NASA's eclipse predictions. We cross-check planet events, meteor shower peaks and seasons against at least two independent, reputable sources. Times are rounded to the nearest minute. Meteor shower peaks are predictions, and the sky on the night can differ. On our art prints, the planet and Moon figures come from NASA's fact sheets. If you think you've found a mistake, please tell us.
Digital downloads
How do the printable downloads work?
After you pay, you'll get a download link on your order confirmation page and by email. Each printable poster comes as high-resolution PDFs in A4, A3, US Letter and 18 × 24 in sizes. The Moon Phases 2027 printable is an A4 PDF with two versions: a night version and an ink-saving version.
The files are for personal use. You're welcome to print them for your home, your classroom wall or a gift. Please don't resell them, share the files or use them commercially.
What paper should I print them on?
For the best result, use a heavyweight matte paper or a matte photo paper. Check the heaviest paper your printer can take before you buy. In your print settings, choose actual size (or 100% scale) rather than fit to page, and pick the highest quality setting. The night-sky designs use a lot of dark ink, so the ink-saving version of the Moon Phases 2027 printable is handy for a home printer. For A3 or 18 × 24 in, a local print shop will usually do a lovely job.
Prints and framing
Do the art prints come framed?
No, our art prints are sent unframed. They're standard sizes, so they fit off-the-shelf frames. The A3 print (29.7 × 42 cm) fits a standard A3 frame, and the A2 print (42 × 59.4 cm) fits a standard A2 frame. If you'd like a border round the print, choose a bigger frame with a mount cut for A3 or A2.
Caring for your things
How do I look after the Moon-phase mug?
The mug is white glossy ceramic, and it's dishwasher and microwave safe. For the longest-lasting print, wash it by hand with a soft sponge, and don't use abrasive scourers.
