HOW IT WORKS
-

Send us the denim/apparel item to embroider on, choose an item for us to upcycle from our Poshmark closet, and if needed, we can source the item for an added fee
-
Keri will get creating and will ship your finished piece in 2-3 weeks depending on the item/design.
POPULAR DESIGN IDEAS
-
monograms, names, dates, coordinates & quotes - perfect for personalization

-
'70s-inpired motifs - flowers, rainbows, etc.
-
special event themes - matching icons, flags, or phrases for weddings, birthdays, or group outings
PRICING
Pricing varies based on the item, size of the design, level of detail, and time required. Shipping and sourcing (if needed) will also be factored into your total.
We'll always confirm the full cost with you during your confirmation call - no surprises, just transparency.
Examples:
-
simple embroidered initial on a hat: $35-45
-
medium design (e.g., pocket or sleeve): $50-$70
-
large design (e.g., back of jacket): $100-$150
-
Item personally sourced: item price + $25 sourcing fee
Please note: Each piece is hand-stitched by one artist — no machines, no mass production. Pricing is based on the complexity of your design, the materials involved, and the turnaround time needed to complete your custom piece.
GUARANTEED SATISFACTION
Rest assured - we're here to bring your vision to life
To make sure everything turns out exactly how you imagined, we'll personally reach out after you submit the form for a quick "confirmation call". Prefer to hop on a video call instead? Even better!
Keri will be in touch within 24 hours to go over your design and confirm the plan for your one-of-a-kind piece. Once you give the thumbs up, the magic begins. You can relax knowing your custom order is being crafted with care, just the way you pictured it.
