Altering vintage is what we do. It's in our name! in the hands of talented designers we up-cycle vintage finds, & create stunning new versions of vintage inspired art & wearables. Why purchase from us? Imported clothing items negatively impact our precious eco-system. Buying small & local helps those independent shops who, unlike corporations, really need your support. FAQ's Will your heat transfer process last & continue to look good after washing? YES! We ship every one of our transfer art items with an easily removable care instruction sticker. Peel the sticker off & stick it to the side of your laundry detergent for any future reference. As shown in our wash test within the listing photos (prince tee example), you can get an idea of what the transfers look like once they are washed per our washing instructions. The transfers take on a vintage, distressed look as they age. They do not flake off like screen printing eventually does, & the color will lose some of its intensity after some time, much like a screen print or sublimation print. Can I select a gifting option for my purchase? YES! Each of our items are carefully wrapped in colorful seasonal palettes with coordinating tissue & adhesive strip gift bags. There is no need to wrap them yourself. in fact, it is easiest to just change your shipping address to reflect where the gift is to be shipped.

What is the difference between heat transfer process & sublimation process.

We like soft cotton shirts that wear well, which is why we use the heat transfer process. Can I request a screen printed image instead? We do not do screen printing on our items due to the limited colors available in replicating original artwork. Image colors are reduced when using this process & we find it too limiting for the subtle variations in our designs which make us unique. Can I request a new shirt instead of an up-cycled or vintage shirt? YES! in fact we prefer to up-cycle our art onto vintage tees & wearable when possible in an effort to be more ecologically friendly. We travel to unique stores & shops to find items to use as the base for our designs. Thrift stores are full of unwanted items that can be great bases for our art. We do offer new t-shirts as noted in our
