I had a dream you sold button-up shirts with your prints on them and i wanted one really bad but i woke up and they did not exist. I still think its a cool idea but its probably not as easy as makin skirts and scarves and such. Anyways, love your work and hope you have a great day!
yeah i’ve been wanting to make button ups for AGES, but we literally do not have room in our house for them and renting additional space would be really expensive. i actually even have an FAQ question about this because it comes up so much.
because my wife and i really want to be able to offer sizes up to at least 3-4X and so many people want different designs, that means any time we make clothing that requires sizing we have to buy a LOT of it and it not only costs several thousand dollars, but it also takes up a ton of room, which we just don’t have right now.
the cost of the button ups could be handled by a kickstarter, but the space part... we’d have more room if we remodeled our basement but just pouring the concrete would cost like $7-10k. i don’t think we could find studio space cheaper than $600/mo and after a year that’s already over $7k. our business is doing pretty well but a big part of that is that we very decidedly live within, and frequently under, our means, since being self employed is SUPER unpredictable and we never know what’s coming.
