Kim's Custom Caps
DON'T KNOW WHAT YOU WANT ON YOUR CAP?
LET'S BRAINSTORM.
Here are some questions you can ask yourself to help get a better idea of what you'd like on your custom graduation cap.
I always recommend browsing online (Pinterest, Instagram, Tiktok, Google) for inspiration pictures so you can see what kind of designs catch your eye. Then ask yourself these questions to narrow down your ideas!

Once you have sent over the ideas you'd like for your design, I will then create a digital mockup/proof/preview of your cap design. I will make up to two additional mockups/edits free of charge. Any edits after that will be subject to additional charges with a pay-per-edit system with payments made via my website. Each edit will range between $3-8 depending on the complexity of edits.
