Raising Boys Designs
Raising Boys Designs is a custom apparel business I run out of my home. It started with Heat Transfer Vinyl (HTV) and now includes, Sublimation, DTF, and Embroidery. I make to order, meaning I don't keep a lot of inventory on hand. This makes it easier to customize to the specifications of the customer. I also do permanent vinyl for car windows, drinkwear, etc. And I can create digital downloads i.e. business cards, invitations, mailers, yard signs, ect.
Best contact is Facebook messenger through my business page @Raising Boys Designs or by email Raisingboysdesigns@gmail.com
