Purple LadyBug Decor

Purple LadyBug Decor is a local London, Ontario business creating home decor items, embroidered clothing, baby blankets, and more.

What inspired you to start your business?

I love to create, make things, have been since i was young. When i figured out I could sell my creations , there wasn’t anything that i didn’t want to try , my friends and family loved it so i started my own business

How do you describe your business?

I use wood, paint, vinyl, fabric. I do custom embroidery for both personal and business. I have no minimum requirement which is a great advantage for the small local businesses that may only need two or three embroidered logoed shirts. I have a short turn around i have local pick up as well as available shipping . I think my biggest advantage is though I can personalize clients own apparel. They buy a baby blanket and i can embroider a name on it, they want to personalize a sweater or jacket, I can do that. Also, I provide service that you can’t buy in a box store. I create gifts that are thoughtful, personal and one of a kind.

I self taught myself back in 2005, and keep learning every day. I try new trends that come out and stay up to date with what customers are looking for. I do this all why still working full time outside the home.

What’s your bestselling product & why do you think it’s so popular?

Right now my best seller is the Mama Sweaters. I create keepsakes out of baby onesies or blankets by appliqueing the word Mama, Nana, Dad, etc on the front of the sweatshirts.

This is trending right now but my customers love giving gifts that are different, thoughtful. It has exploded from just a sweater for the Mom to sweaters for Grandpa, Grandma, Auntie, Nonna, etc.

What’s your personal favourite product?

That is a hard one. Right now I like creating my personalized stuffies. These are embroidery friendly stuffed animals that I embroider a name on or add the baby stats to. This item is something that can be kept for years to come and is quite the keepsake.
