Custom Order Month!

One of the many things I love about having this business is that I often get asked by people to make them custom accessories. It seems that April was the month for custom requests. The first request was for a headband that needed to match a kids white t-shirt with navy/white gingham bows and crystals. I had so much fun making this headband because it was something compeletly different then what I am used to making. Here is a pic of how it turned out. Super cute!

Then I received a wholesale request for 15 ribbon belts. The trick with these was the customer asked that each side be a different ribbon and they didn't need to coordinate. It was fun to mix and match and use some ribbons I have not yet used for belts but will be using in the future!

Finally the order that took up the most time but was so fun to make...custom embroidered soccer team headbands! The coach wanted to give the girls on his team a headband as a gift at the end of the season. We went back and forth with ideas and then came up with using Shamrock ribbon (their team is called the Shamrocks!) embroidered with the player's name on one side and the season on the other. Then he decided to get some made for the player's sisters. For them I just embroidered the name on the center of the headband. And of course the mom's couldn't be forgotten! They got plain shamrock ribbon headbands. All of the ribbon was sewn onto Goody Stay Put Elastic Headbands so while the girls are playing, the headbands stay in place! It was so fun working on this order and I think they came out super cute! So if you are looking for a unique custom embroidered headband for your child's soccer, basketball, softball, or any sport team contact me!


The thing that I love most about custom orders is that it gives me a chance to come up with some new ideas, try something new, and even buy some new fabric. It is great to work directly with the customer and make them exactly what they are looking for! Hopefully this is a sign that many custom and large orders are on their way! I sure hope so!
