Frequently Asked Questions
What wood is the furniture made out of?
We use Baltic birch plywood, known for its exceptional durability and multi-ply construction that resists warping and handles rough use beautifully. Every piece is built to last through toddlerhood, big kid years, and beyond. This is furniture you can pass down, not replace.
What is Blueberry and Third's return and refund policy?
Please refer to our Refund Policy for all returns and refund-related inquires.
What materials do you use?
We exclusively use Baltic birch plywood — a sustainably sourced hardwood known for its strength, smooth finish, and natural beauty. Its dense grain and light color give our furniture a clean, warm look that feels as good as it looks. Zero plastics, just quality wood.
Will this help my child be more independent?
That's exactly what we designed it for. Our step stools, balance boards, and climbing pieces let little ones reach the sink, help in the kitchen, and explore movement safely, all on their own.
Are your products 100% made in the USA?
YES! We design, manufacture, package, and fulfill orders from two facilities, in Virginia and Ohio, shout out to our hardworking teams!
We're proud to support American craftsman, maintain quality control, and reduce our carbon footprint by keeping production close to home.
Are the finishes safe for kids?
Completely safe. We use water-based, non-toxic finishes that are lab-tested at a private, independent testing labratory to ensure they exceed safety standards. Your kids can climb, chew, and play worry-free.
Do your products meet safety standards?
Yes. Safety is one of our top concerns in our design and manufacturing process. Blueberry and Third products meet or exceed all Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) requirements and safety standards.
What are the recommended ages for your products?
All recommended ages are listed on our product pages as well as our product documentation. Some of our products contain small parts that can be considered choking hazards so we do not recommend giving one of our products to a child under the recommended age limit.
Why is the design different from other kids' furniture?
We believe kids deserve furniture that's both functional AND beautiful. Our intentional, minimalist designs support independence and daily family life while looking good in your home. Simple, timeless pieces that grow with your child.
What if a part breaks or there's something missing from my order?
Unfortunately, things break or go missing! We wish it we're never true, but sometimes there might be an issue with one of your products.
If there is an issue with your order, please contact us with the following information and we'll work to get it resolved as soon as we can:
- Your order number
- Pictures of broken part/product
- Description of issue
Can I use your products outside?
Our products are made from natural materials and therefore susceptible to Mother Nature. Our water-based paint and finishes protect from daily use, but will not protect from outdoor elements such as intense heat, cold, rain, or snow. Our products are best enjoyed indoors on a soft surface.
How should I clean your products?
We recommenced cleaning our products with a damp cloth first. If that does not do the job, a mild cleaning agent can be used. We do not recommend any harsh or strong cleaning solutions as it may damage the paint or finish of the product.
What are the oval patches on my product?
During the manufacturing process of the birch plywood, imperfections such as knots are cut out and replaced with a filler patch for structural integrity. These are purely cosmetic, and in many instances, virtually unnoticeable.
Do you ship internationally?
We currently do not offer international shipping as default, but if there is a need, we're happy to work with you to work something out! Drop us a line and we can talk about it.
