Terms and Conditions

We're Whales & Willows, a hand-painted mural studio in Seattle, Washington. Before you get started, here's what you need to know. We've kept it clear and honest.

The Basics

By browsing our website or purchasing our movable murals, you're agreeing to these terms. They apply to all transactions and interactions throughout the USA. Legal documents aren't anyone's favorite read. We've kept things as clear as possible while covering everything that matters.

Our Products & Your Rights

Our murals are yours to enjoy at home or work (including preschools and daycare centers). Here’s what you need to know:

  • Original Art: Each design is created by Chanelle and remains her intellectual property.

  • Not Work for Hire: Custom artwork isn’t considered “work for hire”. The rights stay with the artist.

  • Usage Rights: We retain all rights to distribute, reproduce, and display our artwork.

While we’re thrilled when you share photos of your decorated spaces, please don’t:

  • Photograph our murals for commercial use without written permission.

  • Reproduce the artwork on merchandise.

  • Use our designs in any way that could be considered commercial exploitation.

Website Reviews & Comments

We genuinely love hearing from parents who've put our murals up. Here's what you need to know about posting on our website:

  • You’re welcome to share reviews, questions, and comments if you’ve purchased or received our murals as gifts.

  • Your posts should be:

    • Directly related to the specific product you’re reviewing or asking about.

    • Based on firsthand experience with our products.

    • Honest and helpful for other customers.

Please don’t post:

  • Promotional content or advertisements.

  • Links to other products or services.

  • Spam or irrelevant content.

  • Anything that isn’t family-friendly.

By posting, you give us permission to use your content (like photos of your decorated spaces) in our marketing materials.

Important Safety & Liability Info

Let’s talk about using our murals safely:

While our movable murals are designed to be safe and easy to use, we can’t be responsible for:

  • Damage to walls or surfaces during application or removal.

  • Personal injury during installation.

  • Damage from improper installation or use.

  • Issues from applying murals to unsuitable surfaces.

It’s your responsibility to:

  • Use the sample stickers to test compatibility with your paint.

  • Follow our installation instructions carefully.

  • Keep murals away from heat sources and direct flame.

If Things Go Wrong

  • Arbitration in Washington State: Any disputes will be resolved through arbitration in Washington state, not through a jury trial or class action.

  • Applicable Laws: Washington state laws will guide how we resolve issues.

  • We’re committed to resolving issues fairly and amicably first.

Legal Stuff We Have to Include

  • We may update these terms occasionally.

  • We’ll post updates here and email our subscribers about major changes.

  • Continuing to use the site after updates means you accept the new terms.

  • If someone breaks these rules, we can restrict access to our website.

  • Our failure to enforce a rule right away doesn’t mean we waive the right to enforce it later.
