A P P L I Q U É C U S T O M S

CUSTOMS ARE CLOSED

I am not taking on any more custom designs right now.

But please, allow all your creative ideas to continue flowing! I will notify when customs reopen on Instagram. Thank you for understanding!

Come up with a design!

Have an idea or a couple ideas already? Email me at mollyraegreenberg@gmail.com with your design ideas and I'll be in touch soon!
- But first, please make sure to read through all of the information on this page.
Your design can be put on a second-hand garment or made into a wall hanging.
It is important to me that I feel confident in my abilities to bring your designs to life. I will let you know if your design is something I'm not fully comfortable making yet, as this is still very much a learning process for me!
- I am more than happy to work with you to come up with something more within my scope.
- No faces or close ups of animals as of yet.
I ask that you’re open minded and willing to give me some creative freedom to make your piece truly one of a kind with the supplies I have on hand.
For inspo → check out the archives of past projects!

Pricing

Pricing is determined by how detailed a piece is and how long it takes to make. I will be in touch about the price of your piece once we agree on a design.
Mandatory $50 deposit.
The secondhand garment used is included in the overall price.
Set scales for popular shirt styles (see examples of all these pieces here)
- Plant in a vase - starting at $175
- Billiard balls - $200
- Billiard balls with cue stick - $250

Payment

A $50 deposit is to be paid once we have made an agreement on what your design is going to be.
The remaining money owed must be paid when the garment is completed and before being shipped out or picked up in Brooklyn.
Shipping is not included in the starting price and will be calculated and added to your order when completed (typically between $10-15 for domestic).

Important, Please Read!!

For now, I will only be taking on a small number of custom orders at a time. But still reach out with your ideas, because I may have an opening!
How long until I get my piece? It can take anywhere from 2 weeks to 2 months. There are a lot of factors that I consider with this question:
- How many custom orders I already have lined up,
- How detailed a piece is,
- And so much more! But I will be able to give a more concrete eta once you reach out with your ideas!
Am I guaranteed a custom piece if I reach out? No, for a couple fo reasons:
- What you’re asking for is something I’m not fully comfortable making yet (please bear with me as I am still learning along the way!),
- I have other custom orders I’m already working on, or
- I don’t have the supplies/colors to make your design at this time.
  - As I make all the appliqué with scrap pieces, I may no longer have a specific fabric that you’ve seen in the past anymore.
  - Also, I am on a big ol not buying fabric craze right now!!!
Will I recreate an exact piece that I have already made? No, I really like to keep each piece one-of-a-kind. But I am happy to create similar designs by using different fabrics and changing little details here and there!
Do all pieces include hand embroidery detailing? No, I use hand embroidery for small details that are hard to create with fabric. I do try to incorporate it into a lot of my work but some pieces feel complete without it.
I can no longer pay for my piece but you’ve already started working on it or are done with it. What should I do? If it comes to this, I will absolutely send you back your deposit. I know times are tough right now but I ask that you make sure this is something in your budget before reaching out. I don’t offer payment plans for custom work at this time. Sorry, but maybe in the future!
Where do I send my ideas and questions? Email me at mollyraegreenberg@gmail.com with your design ideas and I'll be in touch soon.

Customs are only offered for upcycled appliqué shirts and wall hangings. No bb dolls, skirts, tops, or scarves. Thank you for understanding!
