Saturday Show Day!

November 5, 2011 – 9:00 am

We have had the privilege of helping lots of friends with their fun projects.

Custom Embroidery adds just a touch of personality to an already personal gift.

Today, for Saturday Show Day, we are going to showcase one of those super cute projects.

As the old saying goes, “A quilt is a treasure that follows its owner everywhere”.

It really is true.

The perfect way to add just a little bit more personality would be (you guessed it)

Custom Embroidery!

For this example, the quilt just needed a little spiritual boost.

Just bring in a square and we will make it extra special.

We can personalize your quilt with a name, quote, or saying.

We also have hundreds of pictures to choose from, or we can digitize something for you.

Custom Embroidery is a perfect way to add just a little something to that project you are doing.

We would love to help your ideas come to life! Please call for pricing.

We’ve got School Spirit! (Even in the snow)

November 1, 2011 – 2:00 pm

I guess I should just face the facts. I live in Utah. It snows in Utah. It shouldn’t be a surprise. We had the winter Olympics in 2002. It even says on our license plates, “Greatest Snow On Earth.”

So, in honor of the 1^st real snow of the season let’s snuggle up with something cozy. There is nothing quite as cozy as a comfy sweatshirt on a cold winter day. Even better, how about a sweatshirt that also shows school spirit!

We got spirit…

Yes we do!

We got spirit…

How about you!

Don’t worry, our school spirit is not reserved for cheerleaders.

Perhaps you an administrator or teacher that wants something fun for casual day…

Or a student that wants to be cozy and stylish…

Maybe you’re a parent supporting your player from the stands and you want everyone to see your school pride…

Here is just one example of what we can do:

Doesn’t that just look cozy?

Have an idea? We can make it happen. We have hoodies, fleece jackets, classic sweatshirts, blankets and more in all sizes and colors. We can do lettering and mascots in all kinds of fonts and colors. Really, if you can dream it, we can make it a reality.

Check out our High School Page for ideas and more examples. Please call for pricing.

Go Cougars!

October 22, 2011 – 9:00 am

I’m a Ute. It seems that these days you can’t like Utah and BYU. It just doesn’t work.

Well, I do.

See, my oldest son met his wife, started his family, and graduated from BYU.

How could anyone say anything negative about a school that was such a source of happiness for me and mine?

I am sure lots of people could, but not me.

I am a Ute, but the Cougars are my friends. The Cougars deserve to have some SpArKleY school pride too, right?

Drumroll please…

Brigham Young University “BYU” Rhinestone Shirts!!

Just like the University of Utah shirts, we can do any top (hoodies, jackets, sweatshirts, tshirts and more).

If you want to add some bLiNg to that next football game (or gymnastics, or basketball, or ballroom dancing, or…you get the picture) these cute sparkly shirts would be the perfect way to go!

Please call for pricing.

I Bleed Red.

October 20, 2011 – 1:00 pm

I am a University of Utah graduate.

There. I said it.

Before you judge me, my son is a BYU graduate. I absolutely think that BYU is great. Unless they are playing Utah…

In that case, I bleed red.

I like to show that I love my Utes. I also love sparkles.

I found a way to marry the two. Better yet, I am licensed to distribute them…

Drumroll please….

RHINESTONE University of Utah “U” Shirts!!

I am very excited about this fun new product. I will be doing UTAH and BYU Rhinestone shirts.

I can do hoodies, jackets, t-shirts, sweatshirts, etc.

If you are a BYU fan…don’t distress. I will be revealing the BYU version on Saturday. Please call for pricing.

Saturday Show Day!

October 15, 2011 – 9:00 am

Packages from home are a highlight for any missionary. It’s a great way to show love to that special young man or young woman.

One of the challenges of missionary packages is the knowledge that they will not be able to store anything. Living out of two suitcases doesn’t allow for a whole lot of carting around anything that isn’t necessary. With that in mind, it can be difficult to find a gift that is useful and fun.

How about the perfect P-day shirt!

Front

Back

These examples are on high quality t-shirts with custom vinyl.

Personalized vinyl t-shirts would be perfect for something original that you would want to make a small number of. Some ideas would be a quote on an apron for mom, or a saying on a t-shirt for dad. We can personalize anything! The sky is the limit.

If you have an idea, bring it to us and we will figure out the best way to bring it to light.

We can do embroidery, tackle twill, rhinestone applique, and even vinyl.

Please call for pricing.

Everyone needs a “dot com”

October 12, 2011 – 9:00 pm

Everything has a “dot com”.

If you don’t have a “dot com”, you should.

We are a society moving more and more toward doing nearly everything online. We shop online. We bank online. We social network online. We can even graduate from college online.

It’s the big thing, and for good reason. A good, functioning, fun website can be a huge boost for a business.

A while ago, I decided that I wanted a dot com. I wanted to make my products available online. I went to a reputable company and asked them to start one for me.

Long story short, it was not quite the outstanding cyber experience I was hoping for.

After a lot of time and money, I still had a website that struggled. If a potential customer did find me on a search engine, they wouldn’t be able to access very many of my products.

Luckily, I knew a guy. Dave Bascom.

My website was in horrible condition. It would have taken my previous company days upon days to fix everything. Dave had my website almost completely bug free with just one conversation and a few hours.

If you are starting a business, or have a business but no website, Dave is your man.

He is starting his own business and I would highly recommend him. His business is called Big Start and you can find him at bigstart.com (see? A “dot com”…you know you want one)

Everyone needs a little more SpArKLe in their life!

October 8, 2011 – 9:00 am

We are excited to add to our repertoire

SPARKLES!!

BLING is the new thing!

Make almost any project dazzle! We have begun the fantastic addition of Rhinestone Applique!

There are all sorts of shapes and sizes we can do alone, and we can add them in to almost any project. Just recently, I made an adorable skirt for my granddaughter. I bought a plain white tee to match. The plain white tee was just that…plain. I put a fabric applique and added some rhinestones and…

VOILA!

My daughter tells me she has gotten more compliments on this project than on any I have made…ever!

If you are looking for a little added *UMPH* to your project, Rhinestone Applique (aka SpArKLeS) would be the perfect thing!

Pricing starts at $10. Please call for more information.

High School Swim Teams!

October 5, 2011 – 9:00 am

We have access to a large inventory of high quality coats, jackets, hoodies, shirts, hats, pants, towels, bags, backpacks and more! We can do almost any color and size. These articles of clothing come as a blank canvas and we can personalize any of it. Not only do we do embroidery, but we can also do tackle twill. Tackle twill is high quality fabric sewn into letters or shapes. It is most commonly used as the letters on sports apparel, but could also be used for a number of other things.

We have had the opportunity this last week to do some embroidery and tackle twill for some of our local high schools. More specifically, the swim season is starting and we were approached to make some jackets and pants for the swim teams of Skyline High School and Murray High School.

Skyline

We provided the jackets for both of the Skyline projects.

We used Tackle Twill on the backs of the jackets to showcase the Skyline Name.

We used Embroidery on the fronts of the jackets to showcase the mascot as well as the competitor’s name and year of competition.

Murray

We provided the clothing for everything but the TYR deck jackets. On the deck jackets, we did the tackle twill and embroidery, but the team purchsed the jackets from another source.

We used Tackle Twill on the backs of the jackets to showcase the Murray Name.

We used Embroidery on the fronts of the jackets to showcase the mascot, the letter “M”, as well as the name of the competitor/coach.

Deck Jackets (We did the embroidery and tackle twill)

One of the benefits of ordering from Renee’s Custom Embroidery, is that we are high quality and reliable. When a team orders from a big brand name, their jackets and design change every year. That means that a Freshman could have to buy four brand new sets of clothing every year. If you order from Renee’s Custom Embroidery, you can rest assured that not only will the clothing last for years, but the same design and jacket type will be available each year. That way, a new Freshman will buy the same uniform as the Seniors, and it will last all the way through their athletic career. Then, when that athlete becomes a Senior, the new Freshmans (and Sophomores and Juniors) will all have the same uniform. Our quality combined with our reliability will save families a lot of money.

We can do any team from any high school. Perhaps you are in Debate and looking for some spiffy polo shirts. Maybe you are in Student Government and would like a stylish hoodie to display your school pride. Baseball, Basketball, Football, Tennis, Chess Club? We can do anything. We would love to help you with whatever you are looking to personalize. Call us for more information.

Saturday Show Day!

October 1, 2011 – 9:00 am

We are going to start doing a weekly post called, “Saturday Show Day”. We will be “Show”ing some of the cute projects we have been up to!

Gift giving is super fun, but can also be quite a challenge. Take, for instance, when someone welcomes a new little addition to their family. You want to give them something special:

What do they want?

What do they need?

What can I give that would show how much I care?

We have the perfect solution:

A beautiful personalized baby blanket*

What is so wonderful about using Renee’s Custom Embroidery is that the possibilities are endless!

You can make your own blanket and have it embroidered. You can go to the store and buy your favorite blanket and have it embroidered. We even have some beautiful already made blankets that you can purchase and (you guessed it) get it embroidered!

The best part is how personalized they can be. Maybe it’s a little boy whose father is a fireman: Get his name embroidered with a firetruck. Perhaps it’s a little lady who is destined to be a princess: Get her name embroidered with a crown. Want to keep it simple? How about just a name and the baby’s date of birth in a super cute font?

Whatever you choose to do, this little bundle of joy will have a beautiful, cuddly keepsake that he/she will cherish for years to come.

*This blanket was home-made. Please go here to see the type of blanket we offer. Custom embroidery prices start at $10 (not including the blanket). Please call for pricing.

It’s True: We now have Utah State Aggie Sweatshirt designs approved!

May 16, 2011 – 9:47 pm

I’ve had several requests to design some Utah State sweatshirts using blue and white polka dots and other fabrics. So here are two designs that I put together. These sweatshirts are heavy weight unisex sizing that come in navy, gray and white. We also have the approval to use several different fabrics on the Aggie “A”. Each one of these fabric choices would make a unique sweatshirt for the Aggie fan. The cost of these sweatshirts is $49 for sizes small to extra large (larger sizes are available for a additional fee) Get your sweatshirt by either emailingor calling me.
