“Giving back is part of how I work. If you are raising money for a cause that matters, I will figure out a way to help.”
How I make it
Four techniques. One pair of hands.
These are the production methods Kim uses to bring custom orders to life. The audience sections above show who she makes for. This shows how.
Not sure which one fits your project? Just describe it. Kim will pick the technique that suits the result you want.
Sublimation
Full color designs fused into the fibers, not sitting on top.
Best for
Vivid full color graphics on light-coloured fabric, drinkware, mouse pads.
Kim's take
“Soft to the touch, never stiff or paper feeling.”
Laser Engraving
Permanent etched detail on wood, metal, leather, and drinkware.
Best for
Signs, keepsakes, tumblers, cutting boards, gift items, memorials.
Kim's take
“Crisp detail that does not fade or peel. Built to be passed down.”
Full Color Print
Vibrant full color textile printing for shirts and hoodies.
Best for
Photo designs, complex graphics, bright multi-colour artwork.
Kim's take
“Soft hand feel, vivid colour. Not the stiff cracking print you get from cheap online sites.”

A note on pricing
Quotes are free. Always.
Pricing depends on the product, quantity, design, and timeline. Rather than guess at a price you will not pay, I quote every order myself once I understand what you actually need.
Send your idea, even a rough one, and I will reply with a real number plus an honest timeline. There is no pressure to commit until you say yes.
