Just received my order for Dot's Handmade Bee Blossoms and should've looked it up beforehand, but the story was very compelling. I just got done emailing for a refund and included pics of what the website shows vs. what I received. Wish I could include them here. I got what look like resin, mass-produced stumpy, flowers with a sign on each saying "cups for bee". No stakes. Look like something a 1st grader would give to their mother for Mother's Day. I hope they don't say I can't return because they were on sale, and hope I don't have to pay for return shipping to Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province

Don't do it. They aren't who they say they are and the products don't match the image/ description. The email on their website doesn't work and they don't give you a return shipping label even though that's what the website says they'll do! I'm waiting on a PayPal claim.

I was also scammed. Received mass produced made in China junk, not hand crafted US made by an artisan. Wish I had Googled first. Disappointed

They stole the name, Dorothy Calloway, from someone who lived in Weaverville, NC but who died in 2008. (obituary is on the web) She is not 75 years old. She is not working on her last bee boxes, due to essential tremor. She does not have a daughter named Claire, who, after you have bought this thing, sends an email saying her mom lit up when she told her about your purchase, and then goes on to try to sell you ceramic flowers. And the sign note on the ordering page, saying there are only 10 left is also B.S.

And their BIG graphic showing a Trustpilot rating of 4.7 out of 5, with nice quotes from various "people" is also false.

I ordered Dot's Handmade Bee Blossoms. The product I received was not the product featured on the website plus the order was incomplete. I wrote to them to return the item. They will accept a return, but the return address is HONG KONG. I have lodged a complaint with my credit card company.

I, like several others here, had purchased Dot's Handmade Bee Blossoms (compelling story, attractive product). First sign something was amiss was when I received my package of 4 bee blossoms. The industrial paint smell out of the box was overwhelming. That and the fact the blossom look NOTHING like what's shown on the site. The blossoms received have stems, are very amateur for a hand-made item and they're painted instead of having a fired finish. Very disappointing that their refund policy has me shipping to Guangzhou, China, instead of somewhere domestically.

This is a scam company. They advertised handmade Bee flowers made in the USA. The items arrived and they are from China and they are not handmade they are junky plastic products. Nothing at all like the pictures they show online. Do not buy from them!

Seller isn't honest. My order of "Dots Handmade Bee Blossoms" was supposed to be for handmade ceramic blossoms made in North Carolina by Dot. Instead they shipped ugly plastic "blossoms" which look like cheap mass produced imports. Seller was insisting I ship these back to Hong Kong if I want a refund; "Julia" finally "offered" a 50% PayPal refund without returning the items. I believe they fraudulently and intentionally shipped improper items so I shouldn't incur any cost, or at least I could ship them to the Florida location which forwarded the package to me instead of an international shipment to Hong Kong. BUYERS BEWARE!!!

I was also SCAMMED by them. The bee cups are NOT ceramic, not as pictured, no stakes, flimsy boxes crushed in a shipping bag. Didn't do my homework: Dot Calloway passed away in 2008, her details stolen from the obituary. Money back only if you return ship to China. TOTAL SCAM

After reading Dot’s long story about her pottery in North Carolina, I ordered the hand-made Bee Blossoms. I then read all of the scathing reviews of this product and attempted to cancel my order. The “contact us”phone number on the website is in Hong Kong, China. When I called the number it was automatically picked up but no one was actually on the line. I then emailed them to cancel my order and refund my charge. I will now have to contact PayPal and my credit card company. Returning these items would most likely cost more than the item cost, so that is really not an option. Do not order these! Along the same lines, I would not order the butterfly houses , the bird houses, or anything this website is selling. I think it’s all coming from China - not from North Carolina crafts people. You would be receiving cheaply made items of poor quality that would require you to ship back to China at your expense. This website has long stories about birds , butterflies, and wonderful long-time crafts people who are retiring or moving and just selling their last handmade items. Don’t believe it word of it!!!

SCAM as all the others have said. I bought "Dot's handmade blossoms from NC", which are not! Same thing on TEMU (which I don't buy anything from) for less than half the price! How are they allowed to operate with totally false advertising?

Do not purchase from this company. They advertise that the products are locally made by artists. Now that I am seeking a refund - it goes to Hong Kong! What I received bears to resemblance to what I ordered. It looks like a piece of cheap plastic from Dollar General

This company is a complete scam, as many others here have written over the past several days. I ordered (what was advertised as) hand-made products from western NC, what I received are cheap, machine-made, resin/plastic, fake substitutes. I’ve emailed them for a complete refund and I’m so ticked off I won’t stop until I get it. I used PayPal on Shopify, so that I would be covered in an event such as this, and I’m also asking them to cut off any other transactions with these scammers.

SCAM! Same story as all the others have reported. The remedy is to CALL YOUR CREDIT CARD FRAUD DEPT - mine has received SO many complaints about this scam company, they just refunded my money, closed the case, and told me to do with the junk I received as I wish: landfill or give away. I wouldn't expose this stinky plastic to any bee or other insect.

I should have checked here first! I ordered Dot's Bee Blossoms and like other folks here, I received something totally different. What I received were resin poured and painted with no stakes. They look nothing like the advertised product. In order to return them, you have to ship them to Hong Kong.
Total waste of money! DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY!

SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!
I ordered a set of 4 handcrafted ceramic bee watering flowers on metal poles made in South Carolina by Dot.
I received 4 cheap resin ugly short little things, not ceramic, not on poles, and not by the artist. Boxes taped with "I love China" tape. 😩 Ugh.
They expected me to send them back to Hong Kong for a refund with me responsible for shipping costs!!!
After several exchanges, they are offering me 30% back and I can keep the product.
SCAM! SCAM! SCAM!

The items pictured and ordered are nothing like what was received. I ordered glazed flowers shown elevated off the ground by stands/sticks for holding water for Bees. I received plaster 5" tall flowers...not glazed. Not sure if I was sent wrong items or this was false advertising.

The item I received did not remotely resemble what was ordered. I was offered a refund, however the return would need to be mailed to Hong Kong. Definitely not worth my time not to mention the expense.
Beware of dealing with this bogus business.

This company is a scam. They advertise hand-made products made in the USA, and when they arrive, they are cheaply made. Sure, they'll give you a refund, but you must return to China.

I received my Dot's Handmade Bee Blossom's today. The items are nothing like the picture described in the original order. Dot is supposedly from North Carolina but this item clearly states "Made in China". What a disappointment to think you are supporting a craft merchant but in actually receive a cheap item from China. Do not buy from CraftFolk.
