Say It With Sequins
by Jennifer | Feb 01, 2017
On my last shopping trip to one of my favorite spots Nordstrom, I found a sparkley counter with people huddled around it. Of course I went to check it out and see what everyone was so drawn to. The counter belonged to a company Bow & Drape. They let you customize sweatshirts, tees, dog hoodies, pillows, clutches, coin purses and more. First you choose your blank product, next you embellish it, and then you get to pick it up the same day!
I chose a clutch bag I intend on using as a cosmetic pouch. One side of the pouch already said Stay Fancy in large sequin letters which I loved but now on to the other side. That’s when the fun began. The design table was covered in tons of shiny goodness. From every letter of the alphabet to emojis and even a sequin wine glass patch.
Since I am a huge pizza fan I thought it would be fun to get the pizza patch, a heart, and a cute smiley emoji. I laid the patches out exactly ow i wanted them. Then gave my finished product to the associate who took a picture of my design and said he would let me know when it was ready. I didn’t mind the wait, I got to shop around the store and within an hour my item was ready! I was so happy with the results and I can not wait to go back to create more items for myself and as gifts. My clutch was only $34. The best part is you only pay the ticket price on your item and you can add as many sequin patches as you like for no extra cost!
If you do not have a Nordstrom near you that has a design bar, don’t worry Bow & Drape has some pre-made items on Nordstrom’s website. Links to some of my favorites are below.
