Frequently Asked Questions
Can you embroider any type of denim?
Yes! I work with all denim types including skinny jeans, boyfriend jeans, mom jeans, vintage denim, denim jackets, and shorts. The weight and weave might affect placement recommendations, which we'll discuss during your consultation.
Will embroidery damage my jeans?
No. Professional embroidery uses proper stabilizers and techniques designed specifically for denim. Your jeans will remain durable and wearable.
Can embroidery cover holes or stains?
Absolutely! Custom embroidery is perfect for repairing and upcycling damaged denim. Strategic placement can cover holes, stains, or worn areas while adding unique style.
What if I don't know what design I want?
That's what the consultation is for! I'll help you choose designs and placements that work with your style and denim. You can browse examples, bring inspiration photos, or we can create something completely custom together.
How do I ship my denim to you?
After booking your appointment, you'll receive detailed shipping instructions including the studio address and any packaging tips. Standard USPS or UPS works perfectly.
Can I wash embroidered jeans normally?
Yes, with minor care adjustments. Turn your jeans inside out and wash on a gentle cycle with cold water. Air dry or tumble dry on low heat to preserve the embroidery quality.
Do you offer rush services?
Rush services may be available depending on current order volume. Ask during your consultation if you have a specific deadline.
What's your refund/cancellation policy?
The $15 consultation fee is non-refundable but applies toward your final order. If you decide not to proceed after the consultation, no additional charges apply. Once embroidery work begins, orders cannot be cancelled as each piece is custom-made for you.
Can I bring multiple pairs of jeans?
Absolutely! Many customers send or bring several pairs at once. Each piece requires a separate consultation to finalize designs and placements.
