The deposit will be $10 for each hoodie and I will invoice you for the rest once I am finished (shouldn't be more than 3 weeks) Which will be $12.95 + 3.85 for shipping). Let me know if you want insurance (sorry unavailable for International customers)
When requesting a hoodie or shirt please provide your paypal address so when I call for deposits I can invoice you at the correct address.
Discount codes or offers are not valid with the semi-custom list.

Hoodies are done..

I sent invoices out Sunday. Please check your spam folders if you didn't get one. I'd like to get them to you ASAP! I don't have much room in my house..lol

Hoodies are done!

I finished them yesterday! I am sorting them and getting them ready to package them. I will be sending invoices out today.
Everything is finished, but the ones that were backordered.

Big Stocking Tomorrow & Hoodie Update

Everything is stocked that I wanted to stock! There is a lot!! It took 3 days to stock the store with Boo being sick. Cars is modeling a tote bag...he was being a toad and had a pouty face... so that was the best picture I got! Ha ha!

Check out the collaborations with color.me.crazy. I love her dying! They looks so awesome! It is so hard to capture the uniqueness and beauty of them. I decided not to do an auction this time around.

My order of hoodies came in and of course there were a few backorders. It only affected 2 people and I email those individuals already. I hope to have the hoodies done this weekend as long as Boo is feeling better.

Another Delay

Boo is sick. She has a fever and had some tummy issues last night... so instead of Tuesday I will stock Wednesday at noon. Sorry for another delay, but my attention is on my daughter until she feels better.

Stocking Delay & Hoodie Update

I finished all the tees today...BUT I am exhausted! My husband and I had our first date night in like ages (Boo's first night away from me) and we went out to eat, I drank some beer (pumpkin beer at that!!) and watched a hockey game (GO PENS!). Well I did sleep in for the first time in like 2 years, but with finishing up shirts this morning...I have no energy left to take pictures and list everything. So it is delayed by a day. I will start tomorrow sometime with it.

Hoodies are scheduled to be delivered Tuesday! I hope everything comes in! I hope they'll be done by next weekend.

Finally updated store with action shots

You can view pictures here of my photo contest from July and action shots! Click here

Hoodie and Stocking News!

I am ordering the hoodies and shirts today. It will take about a week to get to me and from there another week for me to finish them.

I am hopefully stocking next Monday.

Stocking Monday!

I have all but 2 shirts listed. I couldn't add them because my camera's batteries died, so they are recharging and I will get the last 2 shirts listed. It is my last 2 Kickin' It Old School.

After this stocking I will work on another big stocking.

Hoodie List will start again Oct. 1st! I will list instructions again on Sept. 30th

Semi-Custom Hoodies are done!

Check your email! I sent everyone an email. If you didn't get one check your junk/spam folder!

I will be opening up the semi-custom list again once all the hoodies are shipped. I will post instructions again.

I survived!

All orders purchased this week have been shipped! I did while babies slept. It didn't help that my power was out from Sunday to Wednesday.

Next Huge Stocking will be in October, but be on look at for a mini-stocking near the end of this month. Some Kickin' It, Some this isn't the first time, some NIP and some My Fav dipe. Also a few totes will go up!

Bed Hog will be part of the big stocking in October along with maybe a new design... I am going to post a poll at Diaper Swappers for opinions of an idea I have.

I will be hopefully finishing the hoodies this weekend from my semi-custom list and I will re-open the list.

Krissy of color.me.crazy will be dying some shirts next time for Kickin' It Old School.

Going Greener....

I am relatively green person (and so is my family). So I want to do more green things with my business.
First no more paper invoices. There will probably be a post it with your name and order number. So please if you have concerns about your shirt purchase please include your order number. Easy for me to look it up!
Second, I will be recycling mailers. I have tons that I don't throw away and they are just sitting in my storage doing nothing. So I will be using them for my business. I hope nobody is turned off by this, but if you are getting a shirt for a present you can request a new mailer.

I am taking these steps so it fits with my lifestyle. I hope you in turn re-use my packaging. Re-use the mailers and bags please! It will make the Earth smile!

Thanks so much! Please contact me if you have any questions!

I am ready for Monday!

Well almost... hehe I just need to get a few supplies for packing and shipping and then I will be all set.

I double checked to make sure I didn't list too many or too few. I think I got everything. If I missed something I will probably list it Sunday night. If not then everything there today will be there Monday!

Super Duper Special gift to 2 lucky customers of Monday's stocking! So Tuesday morning I will put everyone in hat (aka random.org) and pick 2 lucky customers. Read the info at my store for more details. Plus some FFS lotteries, too! Fun stuff! yay!

It took me a really long time (all Friday night and most of Saturday afternoon/evening) to list these all. Man, I started to get a little stressed. I have a lot on here! I put a stalking policy at my store so please read it, so Monday can go smoothly for me. I have listed a lot of shirts and my wonderful husband is going to help me with shipping. If there is a lot purchases then it will take me a little bit to get to you if you happen to e-mail. Please be patient with me. During the day I run an in-home daycare and I may or may not be at the computer depending if everyone is finished eating and sleeping. My daughter usually has plans of her own in regards to naps. She is teething something fierce! I can't' wait for these molars to come in.

Also please note there is difference between Rabbit Skin shirts and American Apparel (which I call vintage style).

Thanks again!

Bed Hog was a success! Stocking next week

Only a few left, so I think that was successful stocking! Only 3 left (I do believe). I will re-stock them probably in October. I know I said I wasn't going to stock my store anymore...but I took a break from stocking and feel re-energized! I got some much need family time and feeling better now. So I will be stocking my store, but I will continue to do semi-custom hoodie list.

Next Monday (most likely) I will be stocking a lot (and I mean a lot!) of Kickin' It Old School and Stick Around for The Show I Nurse in Public, too. I will have some mama and papa shirts, too.

I will have some OOAK Kickin' It Old School Hoodies in collaboration with Krissy of Color.Me.Crazy

Thank you for all your kind words and continued support!

Bed Hog Monday at noon

My first non-cloth diapering shirt. I hope you love it.

Semi-Customs List *CLOSED*

Update 9/2/08: The list is now closed, so if you emailed me and asked for a hoodie, but didn't confirm size and color please do so before Wednesday. I'll be invoicing for payments and I hope to have all payments by Friday so I can order my blanks and start working.


I can tell you I won't have hoodies this time around, so you are in search of a hoodie then please email at fcolhyenacart @ gmail. com and I can add you to my list. So far I am doing shirts with white image. I can start separate list for black image if anybody is interested.
Hoodie colors are: white, powder pink, black, army (greenish brown), navy, and brown. They are zip-up in the front with kangaroo style pocket in the front. The price will be $22.95. Once I reach 24 shirts I am going to call for a non-refundable deposit (I am ordering blank hoodies specifically for you, so please make sure you are absolutely sure of the color and size!!!) The deposit will be $10 and I will invoice you for the rest once I am finished (shouldn't be more than 3 weeks) Which will be $12.95 + 3.85 for shipping). Let me know if you want insurance (sorry unavailable for International customers)
UPDATE:
I have had some requests for Adult sized hoodies and I would be happy to do that for you! The image will be the same size. The price is $32.95 There are more colors available: red, green and asphalt (and the same as the small hoodies expect pink). The deposit would be $20 and that will would be for both hoodies then. Shipping for 2 hoodies will probably have to go priority, but I will have to figure out how much they weigh first to give a shipping quote.

Stressed

I have become very stressed out about this how business thing. It is taking a lot of time away from my family. This used to be a lot of fun.

I will be doing one last major huge stocking (kickin' it old school, my fav. dipe is in the wash, NIP and bed hog) and then I am going to re-do my entire system of how I take orders. I won't have hyena cart store in the next several months. So everything that doesn't sell on my store will be moved to my blog or at diaperswappers. Then I will doing a different system of taking shirt orders.

Basically, I need to order shirts in groups of 24 of the same shirt (or 48 or 72, but I think 24 works out easier) (that is how my supplier sends me the silk screen prints for me to print with). I will consider doing wholesale for 48 shirts for stores. So if you want a shirt, I'll add you to my list and when I reach 24 shirts (of all the same color) I will notify you and ask for a small deposit and when I completed all the shirts I will invoice you the remaining amount with shipping. It would take less than a month. You can pick AA or Rabbit Skins and any style or color shirt (It would depend on the color of ink I would be using either black or white)

I hate do it this way, but stocking a store takes a lot of time out of my day. I run another business besides this and I am so tired at the end of the day and then I still have to do shirt stuff on top of everything else. The ordering and printing for shirts that may just sit in my store. It is stressful! I hope you all can understand.

But this is my last stocking (sometime in September) and I think in October I will pull everything off and sell stuff here and/or at DiaperSwappers.
