Custom and personalized orders

Yes, I do custom orders and make items to-order!! I now require 100% up-front payment of the item price + shipping for some items. However, I don't charge more for custom / made-to-order items! If you see something in my shop that's not your size, or if you have an idea for something you don't see, or if you want to get everyone in the family a matching shirt, contact me (click on the "contact"' or "contact shop owner" button on my store's page) and tell me what you'd like, and we can get the ball rolling! I strive for fast turn-around (item in the mail within 1 week), but custom orders can take up to 3 to 4 weeks to complete (may have to order the item(s) to be dyed, my schedule can vary, and all that).

Shirts can vary in size from brand to brand, and there is even variation within brands. For this reason, the armpit to armpit measurement and length measurement for each of my shirts are in the product listing. Some brands (LAT, Faded Glory, women's sizes) RUN SMALL, so please CHECK YOUR MEASUREMENTS against those in the listing to ensure proper fit. My shirts are all preshrunk, and the size should not change even if you decide to wash in hot water. To check your measurements: measure a comfortably-fitting shirt you have from armpit to armpit, and from shoulder to bottom hem. Compare with the measurements in my shop listing. Or compare with bust measurement (halve bust and add AT LEAST 2-3 inches, depending on how tight you like it).

Care instructions for my items are included in the item listing. Tie dye is best washed in cold water with dark-colored items, and either line dried or tumbled on low or medium. This will result in the best lifespan of your tie-dye item. You can wash in hot water and tumble on the high setting, but you may see fading if you do this a lot. For my fabric-painted shirts (galaxy shirts, etc): Turn the shirt inside out; machine wash cold with dark colors. Hang to dry, or tumble dry low. For hats: Machine was cold with dark-colored items. Hang to dry.

Click on the "contact" or "contact shop owner" button to contact me. Or, you can send me a message via my Facebook page (The Pathological Dyer).

I am sensitive to certain dyes / have dye allergies -- will I have a problem with your garments?

I have asked this of one of the (20+ years of experience) experts at Dharma Trading Company, supplier of most of my fiber reactive Procion dyes. No one she's heard of has ever had an allergic reaction to fabric that's been properly dyed with fiber reactive dyes and had the dye properly washed out after dyeing (which I do). "That is why they are the dye of choice for infant cotton clothing. A baby can chew on fabric dyed with Fiber Reactive dye and it will NOT come off. That is because this is the ONLY type of dye that actually forms a chemical reaction with the fabric, so that the dye molecule and the fabric molecule join together in the presence of the Soda Ash to form one molecule. Only bleach and similar chemicals can break that bond."

Wholesale availability

I am a very small on-line business with reasonable pricing for quality, hand-made items. The shirts are individually crafted by me, not mass-produced. I use professional dyes and quality, tried-and-true garments. And as a certified, licensed small business (unlike many sellers on Etsy), I have to pay for business licenses, taxes, etc. in addition to Etsy fees (which can be from over 10% to as much as 21% of each sale per my calculations, including listing fees, sales fees, “offsite ads” fees, and even an added fee on some shipping). I am open to discount pricing on larger orders, but do not offer wholesale pricing per se.

Ooops! I didn't provide the correct shipping address....

Please make sure you verify/double check the address to which you want the item sent. Make sure the address you have provided via Etsy for shipping is the correct one and not, for instance, a prior address when you forgot to update your address in Etsy, your brother's address because you previously had a gift sent to him, etc. I am not financially responsible for re-directing these types of packages, or for the value of the item if you do not provide Etsy (and thus me) with the correct shipping address and it is lost in the mail or kept by an occupant at the address to which you mistakenly directed the item be sent. You will be responsible for taking action for the item's recovery & paying for the misdirected item to be forwarded to you.

I'm sensitive to strong detergent smells, detergent additives, fabric softener additives....

I make my own special environmentally friendly soap for washing out the my tie-dye items, which avoids the heavy fragrances that some commercial soaps impart. I don't add fabric softener, and I've started using dryer balls (no dryer sheets) in my dryer also. Your item is ready to wear/use the moment you get it, won't be heavily scented, and shouldn't have anything from the dye or what's been used to wash the item that will make you sneeze, itch, or break out in a rash. (On the other hand... If you use fabric softener when you wash the item, it will probably get a bit softer. It won't hurt the item a bit. Have a blast. But my customers with sensitivities wont' be subjected to a bunch of smelly or allergy-inducing additives).

Oops! I didn't check the sizing information like you recommended, and it doesn't fit!

I am up-front about sizing, & try to describe items so that you know their dimensions. But if an item does NOT fit you, contact me within a week of when you receive it & ship it back within 2 weeks of the day it was delivered to you. If I get the item back in the same condition it was in when it was sent to you (i.e. you haven't worn/laundered/damaged it), I will refund your cost less a restocking/handling fee. Because I provide you with sizing information & implore you in multiple places in the listing to check this information, as well as send an email that goes to you at the time of purchase to check this information, however, you must pay for the shipping to return the item to me in the event that you decide it doesn't fit you.

Can I provide you with a shirt/item to dye for me?

No. There are many, many reasons why. I can try to find the type of shirt/item you’re looking for from my suppliers and give you a price quote if you want to go that route.

FUN tie-dye / ice dye 12 month short sleeve infant bodysuit, Carters brand,
Dyed symmetric pattern with fiery colors of red, orange, yellow, pink....
Your baby will be the coolest one around!

A high-quality hand-dyed product from a U.S. seller with great customer reviews and fast shipping!

And here are the details and sizing information:

This one-of-a-kind onesie was hand-dyed (tie dyeing/ice dyeing) using professional Procion dyes, the choice dyes of serious tie dyers because of their superior staining, vibrant colors, and resistance to fading.

This bodysuit was tie dyed in the colors and pattern you see in the photos. Front and back photos are provided. You will get the exact item pictured. The bodysuit was stitched with nondyeing white polyester thread. (NOTE: Colors may vary depending on your monitor or device. I try to use photographs that accurately depict the colors of the item(s). My customers frequently comment that the colors of my items are better in real life than what shows up in the photos in my listings. I have tried to accurately describe all items.)

The item is BRAND NEW but does not have attached tags because any tags / stickers were removed prior to dyeing it.

The bodysuit is a short sleeve Carters brand bodysuit, 100% cotton, 12 month size. It has 3 metal crotch snaps. The bodysuit is stitched with white polyester thread, which does not dye. It was made in Cambodia and hand-dyed in the United States. It weighs 1.7 oz. Side seamed.

Width armpit to armpit 8 inches Length 15 inches

Per Carters brand sizing information: 12 month size is for babies 21 - 25 lbs and 28.5 - 30” tall (long)

Care instructions:

Machine wash cold with dark colors; tumble dry low or medium, or hang to dry. The Onesie has been preshrunk, and will not shrink further with laundering.

If I am in town (almost always the case), the item will ship within 3 business days; I usually ship the same day or next business day. On the rare exception that I am out of town, this will be noted at the top of the "announcement" section of my shop (between the pictures of listings and the reviews), where you will find the estimated shipping date; in these cases, shipping will still be reasonably prompt (usually within 6 business days). Orders ship via USPS Ground Advantage, USPS Priority Mail or UPS Ground shipping. Orders over $100 in value may be sent with Signature Confirmation. Returns of unused/unworn items accepted within 2 weeks; buyer pays for return shipping. Refunds will be given for returned items at the time they are received by the seller, if in original, undamaged, unworn condition, less a $4 restocking / handling fee for this item). Please make sure you verify / double check the mailing address to which you want the item sent -- make sure the address you have provided via Etsy for shipping is the correct address for shipping.

If you have a problem or question regarding your transaction, please contact me - I will work with you to resolve any problem you may have. If you are happy with your purchase, please leave me a nice review on Etsy so that other potential buyers know what you think of my fabric creations, communication, shipping speed, etc.
