‼️LITTLE BUSINESS UPDATE- PLEASE READ‼️
I’ve taken this month to catch up on customs, give myself a little breather, and really think about the future of my business. As Gritt & Grace continues to grow and expand, my turnaround time is starting to take a little longer.
Going forward, my average turnaround time is now 6–8 weeks.
I completely understand the frustration of purchasing something and having to wait almost two months for it. But I also want to give you a little peek behind the scenes and help you understand why it takes the time it does. ❤️
When you order a custom, I’m designing a 100% CUSTOM outfit specifically for you. That takes time! If your design requires a custom fabric that I don’t have on hand, I have to order it first. Most of my fabric suppliers have a 10–15 business day turnaround, which is already about 3 weeks. With suppliers being backed up themselves, sometimes that can stretch closer to 4 weeks.
Then there are upcycles. If I’m creating an upcycled piece, I’m searching for the perfect shirt to coordinate with your custom. Finding the right piece takes time too!
And behind the scenes of my business, I’m also a VERY, VERY busy mama of two beautiful children and a fiancé (basically my 3rd child 😉😂).
As much as I would LOVE to be able to focus solely on customs, my first responsibility will always be my family. That means when my kids are sick, have appointments, school activities, daily activities, or simply need their mama, I have to step away from work, and I wouldn’t have it any other way.🫶🏻
So going forward, please keep the 6–8 week turnaround time in mind when ordering. This also means taking into consideration the size your child will need and the season the outfit is intended for. Please don’t wait until you need something for an event or holiday to order, because I want to make sure I have enough time to create something you absolutely love!
And speaking of seasons…
🍁MY FAVORITE SEASON IS ALMOST HERE🍁
FALL, which means…
🦌 HUNTING
🕷️HALLOWEEN
🦃 THANKSGIVING
🍁 ALL THE COZY FALL THINGS!
I have a couple of fall items already arriving, but I am SO excited to start on some of the fun Halloween ideas I have in my head!
COMMENT BELOW and tell me what Halloween characters, themes, or ideas you would LOVE to see!
I’ll also be putting together a Halloween pre-order fabric drop in the next couple of days, so keep your eyes peeled! 👀
As always, thank you SO much for supporting my little business and allowing me to create these special pieces for your babies. It truly means more than you know.🫶🏻
