🌈 Customization
We hand-dye every piece in-house, allowing us to create rich, vibrant, and custom shades to match your specific costume or group color theme. Message us before purchasing to confirm available colors or to request a custom tone. These are our own colors that are created and dyed exclusively by us. They will not be identical to any other colors you may have received from another supplier, please keep that in mind when placing your orders. If you'd like color consistency, then you'll need to contact us first and provide us a sample of what you are trying to match so that we can help you. 
 
⚠️ Production Time
Each set is made to order by our small family team. Please allow time for us to dye, prepare, and finish each piece by hand. If you need your order by a specific date, send us a message before purchasing so we can ensure timely delivery.
