Sample Silhouettes
Shape & Color Options
As I complete your orders & build my shop many options for color choices will be featured.
At this point, when you submit your order we will work together to identify your style. This will help in the creation of your personalized design.
For a simply timeless option you may choose to forgo all color options and order a black and white only design.
