Morning wandering fam, Today we are sending out orders and working on more. Got my energy and caffeine from HÅFA JAVA by R&A.

An if you need your morning pick me up- Y’all the Isla Ube is the best💜.

🎨✨ Keepin’ busy over here✨🎨

The studio is in full swing, and the sawdust might as well be glitter at this point 😅. Running a small business with two kiddos and a husband deployed is not for the weak. I have been surviving though and would say starting to get a good routine going. With that as well we’ve got a TON of new designs cookin’ and we cannot wait for them to drop. Just in time perfect for those back-to-school vibes! The launch will be August 1st so make sure to follow if you don’t 🚌✏️👟

AND just a reminder… the Seitz Elementary Fundraiser is still OPEN until August 10th!
Let’s show some extra love to those amazing P.E. teachers who keep our kiddos movin’ and groovin’. 🏃‍♂️💥🏀

NOTE: 👉 When you donate, we’ll gift you $10 EXTRA on top of your donation to spend in our shop on anything your heart desires. Because supporting schools should feel as good as fresh paint on a canvas 🎁✨

So whether you’re grabbing gear for school, shopping gifts, or just wanna treat yourself—you’re also giving back. Total win-win. 🙌

Hey all!

Life update because I’ve been very MIA on posting and slow to all of our messages. First I want to apologize but thank everyone for understanding. Second Michaels deployment has began and with that I’m wrangling 2 kiddos, 2 pups, life needs and a hamster solo lol.

We are doing great though! You all have kept me so busy and I’m thankful for it but such a learningg curve this has been 😅🫶. So check out some of the recent pieces we’ve had the pleasure of making and keep em coming because it keeps me sane.

Had the BEST time making this custom plaque for a soldier in the Pathfinder Platoon! 💥 Fallout’s Vault Boy got the ultimate camo glow-up—and I’m obsessed. 😎💀

Y’all your cool ideas could be made into some Legendary pieces! Message me TODAY because they deserve to be made real!

No better way to start the day than with a coffee from HÅFA JAVA by R&A 😍

This is the week for plaques and signs. check out this sneak peak of a version of Vault Boy from Fallout 😍

what one may see as rough, I see as soon to be amazing! Check back in for the final piece soon!

Hey all!
Still accepting donations for Seitz 🫶 what you give you’ll get PLUS $10 MORE for a gift card with us :)
