Do you the "roots" of the Bandana Bloom?









When my friend's 16 year-old-daughter was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma,


we all rallied around her, offering our support in any way we could.


Her mom, being a nurse, knew that Eva would experience the inevitable hair loss


associated with chemotherapy and thought that she'd probably choose


to wear bandanas during that time.




I created the Bandana Bloom and gave Eva a dozen of them


in an array of colors to help cheer her up.


I'm happy to say that Eva is healthy today and is the coolest teen around,


sporting her new short hairdo!


Her mon told me that Eva liked the blooms so much that she never used them,


even when she needed to. She said they remind her of how strong she is!

Yup, we are too!


And we have the t-shirts to prove it!

Feeling a little "city-envy"?

Does your city need its own fashion identity?

Do you know how to tie a bandana?

It's easy as a, b, c!

a) Fold square in half diagonally to form a triangle.

b) Place #1 (center of folded edge) in middle of forehead.

c) Let #2 fall to base of head. Tie #3 & #4 into a comfortable knot at base of head.

d) You can tuck in all loose corners under the knot for a clean look.

e) Pouf fabric above knot so that bandana is not tight against your head.
(Told you it was easy)

Have you seen our latest E-Blast about the Bandana Bloom!?!




A year ago, my friend's 16-year-old daughter, Eva, was diagnosed with Hodgkin's Lymphoma.
Anna Marie knew that her daughter would experience the inevitable loss of hair
and would probably choose to wear bandanas during that time.

I created the Bandana Bloom and gave her a dozen of them
in an array of colors to help cheer her up.
Eva liked the Blooms so much that she never used them, even when she needed to.

I'm happy to say that Eva is healthy today and is the coolest teen around, sporting her new short hairdo! (She said the Blooms remind he of how strong she is.)
