About International Shipping
My shop is located in the US, so shipping within the country is pretty standard for me. Shipping internationally involves customs forms, HS codes, and import taxes that make international shipping much more complicated than domestic shipping.
There are technically two storefronts for my shop: My website, and Etsy. I prefer to avoid etsy where I can, however, as a small business that does not qualify to register for European VAT, yet still must collect it before shipping orders, I need Etsy's help if I am to ship to Europe. Etsy does not like shops that have a personal storefront, so any time I put up listings on their site, they are liable to take it down because they see a matching listing on my website, so I will likely only be able to open my etsy in small batch drops for a day or two at a time. please stay up to date on my social medias to know these drop times! If my page says it is on vacation, I am not accepting Etsy orders at that time.
Here is the list of countries I can ship to, as well as the website that you will need to order from:

Shipping costs vary based on location and the weight of the package. For domestic (US orders) it is typically between $4-12 USD, and for international it is between $9-20 USD. Shipping is automatically calculated at checkout when you enter your order's destination!
I use Ascendia + USPS for most international orders! This is an additional complication since I need to export orders off-site to get the best shipping deals for you. The benefit to both of us is better pricing and door to door tracking! I only ship to the countries that I am able to offer door to door packaging to for security, and to avoid lost packages.
For sticker only orders, I use USPS first class mail! This is essentially just an envelope with a stamp on it, as if I were sending a letter, so it is available to all countries! There is no tracking on this type of shipping, so please keep this in mind when ordering!
Unfortunately I cannot ship to Germany at all due to the LUCID packaging policies which I do not have the resources to be able to comply to, and would like to avoid either of us being deeply fined.
If you live in a country that I cannot ship to, my suggestion would be to have it sent to a friend that does live in a country I can ship to, and have them forward it to you. I know this is complicated, but unfortunately I am already doing as much as I can to accommodate international shipping. There are also third party forwarding services that may be good to look into.

As a reminder, I cannot make any exceptions to the countries that I can ship to! Please do not message me and say "I know you can't ship to my country, but could you please ship to my country?" If I am not able to ship to your country, unfortunately, I am not able to ship to your country and cannot change that for you. I don't typically answer those types of questions since they answer themselves.
