Ahoy Matee! Navy Nametapes

So, silly me, made the assumption that all nametapes were virtually the same width...wrong. That's ok though! Navy nametapes are about 1/4" wider than the other branches which just means some adjusting is in order :)

For the keychains I am not able to wrap the name tape thru the keyring because of that extra 1/4 inch so instead I have to use the ribbon which looks like this:


This is also a sample of a more manly looking keychain :) See guys! It's not just a girl thing!

As for the bracelets. Instead of just doing one ribbon across the back I have to sew 2 ribbons together to back the bracelet but to avoid some extra bulk I go back down to 1 ribbon to attach the toggles:


If you have any questions or special requests I'd be happy to hear from you!

Review Me!


Orders are beginning to go out and what is the best way to spread the word to help me grow? Review me! I know I'm much more likely to purchase something from someone that others have purchased from and have rave reviews for! I will honestly do everything I can to make your items to the very best of my ability and will be open with you if something is messed up that I am working on fixing. Example:

Today my sewing machine decided to have a moment and have loose stitches but then pick back up to the right tension about an inch down the bracelet...I will not let it go out like that. I am going to fix it.

I know perfection is can not be acquired but I will never send out something I am not proud of so if you would review how much you like your product on either my facebook page or email me and I will copy and paste it here on the blog!

AND every military spouse or family member has a support system so why not support this military wife and pass the good word along :) I know I'd really appreciate it!



Do you Facebook?

Hey! If you Facebook look up my page { Support My Man } and like it. Hopefully we will be in the position to start offering discounted products or contests that mean you can get FREE!! You gotta stay tuned though or you will miss out!

Update on COLOR

I know a previous post I said that I could only do color for Marine nametapes but that has CHANGED!!! Yeppie!!!

I can offer all those same colors for any branch in the service! It's still $1 extra dollar per nametape but you are able to make it more personal!

Can't wait to get started on your order!!

Colored Letters! (Marine only... )

So, as you know the Marine nametapes I get for the bracelets and key chains I purchase them locally. All the other branches I have to purchase through an online supplier because the local embroider is not authorized to make them. Because of this I only have the ability to offer the following to those ordering Marine nametapes....

COLORS!!! We have colored lettering available for $1 extra!! Yeppie!

Available colors:
RED
WHITE
BLUE
PINK
YELLOW
BABY BLUE

So, I've added a spot on the order form where you can specify what color you want. If you just want the standard color you can put 'standard' OR you can just leave it blank :)

AND we have a few new ribbon colors for you to choose from! Yeppie!

Sky's the Limit!

So, at first I thought that I could only offer Marine nametapes because that is all the local embroiderer is authorized to make which was very disappointing BUT I found a site where I can order the nametapes for any branch that you need! Yeppie!!


However, to cover the cost of having them shipped to me there is a $3.50 additional charge for nametape orders that are any other branch besides the Marines. You are still more than welcome to have them made at your local embroidery area around your base and have them sent to me and the cost would be $7 since you provided the nametape to me. If you want me to order them and have them shipped here your total would $10 for a bracelet or key chain plus $3.50 for the whole order for having to ship them from the site to me.

If you have any questions I'd LOVE to help!
