Although we love each and every piece of art she has kindly let us “borrow”, they are all available for purchase.

We want to set our clients up for success. So, we wanted to call out some common issues we run into on our end. We do everything possible to create a smooth, transparent process when you send us an order.

Swag, tchotchkes, freebies. These are some words used to describe items that are typically given away to promote a business or brand. We have all received one of these items at some point.

Every once in a while, we come across a scenario when we have to advise our clients on changing their desired imprint size due to garments that are included in their orders. For example, a client might have garment sizes ranging from Youth Small to Adult 3X. The client wants a 12.5” W imprint on the front chest. One problem — that print is not going to fit on a Youth Small.

We get it. You are a business owner and/or operator, and you spend your day putting out fires. One of the last things you probably think about is merch for your business. That is where we come in.

Shit happens. There are definitely times we mess up. And, there are times our clients overlook something small but it can have a large impact. So, we want to lay the groundwork on what we are responsible for and our commitment to our clients. If there are issues with your order not covered by these policies, we will make it right by reprinting or working out something that our you feel comfortable with like a discount or credit. We are also good for an IOU.

Having Core Values had always been a goal of ours. And yes, we could have started this business with Values.
