Hi! I’m Cicely, the owner and creator behind Dazzling Darlings Boutique & Print Co. I’m so glad you’re here.

What started as a love for creativity, custom apparel, and helping small businesses grow has turned into a full-service print and embroidery shop focused on quality, education, and community. Whether you’re a boutique owner, small business, team, school, or someone who just loves custom apparel, my goal is simple: to help you bring your ideas to life—beautifully and professionally.

What We Do

At Dazzling Darlings Boutique & Print Co, we specialize in two main decoration methods:

• Direct to Film (DTF) Printing

• Professional Machine Embroidery

Each method has its own strengths, and part of my job is helping you choose the best option for your project.

What Is Direct to Film (DTF) Printing?

DTF (Direct to Film) is a modern printing method that allows full-color designs to be transferred onto garments using heat and pressure.

Here’s why DTF is so popular:

• Vibrant, full-color prints

• Works on light and dark fabrics

• Great for detailed artwork and small text

• Soft, flexible finish when applied correctly

• Ideal for t-shirts, hoodies, tote bags, and more

DTF is perfect for logos, graphics, photos, and multi-color designs that would be difficult or expensive with traditional printing methods. It’s a go-to choice for both small runs and large orders.

What Is Embroidery?

Embroidery is the process of stitching a design directly into a garment using thread. It’s a timeless, professional option that offers durability and texture.

Embroidery is ideal for:

• Business logos

• Hats and beanies

• Polos, jackets, and uniforms

• Left-chest branding

• Premium and long-lasting apparel

Because embroidery uses stitches instead of ink, designs must be digitized—a process that converts artwork into a stitch file readable by embroidery machines. This ensures clean lines, proper stitch direction, and a polished final product.

Education, Not Just Printing

One thing that sets Dazzling Darlings apart is my passion for education. I love helping customers and fellow business owners understand:

• Why vector artwork matters

• How to price custom work correctly

• When to choose DTF vs. embroidery

• How to improve artwork quality over time

Everyone starts somewhere, and learning these skills builds confidence and independence. I’m always happy to answer questions and point you in the right direction.

Whether you already have print-ready artwork or need help getting there, I’m here to help. I believe your brand deserves to look polished, professional, and dazzling—every single time.

Thank you for supporting small business and trusting me with your creations. I can’t wait to work with you!
