"This is Fine" with a Burning Earth Hand Stitched Tee

Items are typically made to order, and we keep only a few shirts on hand at one time to cut down on waste. Your shirt may need to be ordered from our supplier before it can be crafted. It can take as long as 2-3 weeks for your item to be sent out from our shop (although our usual is much faster, it's just something to be aware of when ordering and you can certainly contact us for a time estimate), we appreciate your patience and will of course keep you updated!

Each item is hand embroidered, so some small variations may occur.

You will see that you can leave a tip at checkout. At this point those funds go directly toward our ability to move into phase two, but when we begin phase two those funds will go directly to our employees. The company makes no money off of tips, we will just subtract processing fees, pool the money, and divide it among our staff.

Items are priced according to how long they take to make. Every stitch is a bit of a feat: the tension has to be just right or the fabric buckles and looks wretched. I think the ultimate effect is grand, but it does take a good deal of time to complete.

This shop is the start of something big: a company/nonconditional cash transfer fusion. Buying this shirt will help move forward a plan for ethical and non-condescending poverty alleviation/employment opportunities for vulnerable folks. Follow us to learn more! This is very much early early days.

All designs are thought up and created by yours truly.

This shirt is a women's fit, which mostly means that it is shorter in the arms and torso. Of course anyone could wear it, but do check the measurements to see if you'll find it comfy.

All measurements are taken with the shirt flat:
The shoulder measurement is measured from outer shoulder seam to seam.
The chest measurement is taken from underarm to underarm.
The length of the shirt is measured from where the shoulder seam meets the crew neck seam to the bottom of the shirt.
The sleeve length is measured from the top of the shoulder to the end of the sleeve.
The bottom hem is measured straight across the bottom hem of the shirt.

This shirt is 100% cotton and has a very slight curve in at the waist, but when on these shirts give a slightly boxy effect, although in these photos the model has typically sized up. If you want a very fitted look we recommend you get your usual size, otherwise size up at least once. As you can see they do run small!

Please hand wash this item, and definitely hang dry. Some folks have washed their items in a laundry bag in a gentle cycle with no ill results, but I don't necessarily recommend it as the threads can still catch in the washing cycle. Don't put this in the drier!

Do not iron directly on the front side of the stitching. You can iron it lightly inside out.

Since we are such a small company, and a business trying to accomplish some social good, we ask that you take your time when shopping, and do not order multiple sizes when you only intend to keep one item. Accurate measurements are listed with each item. Extensive returns will ultimately impede our ability to achieve our goals; we ask our customers to make thoughtful purchases. 

-If your item arrives damaged or defective we will replace it. 

- Customized items are final sale.

- All returns are for store credit and must be initiated within 15 days of receipt of the item. All items must be in like new condition with no indications of wear. 

-Duties and taxes are the customer's responsibility.

Our quality standards are very high and we will support you if your item needs some repairs after cumulative wear and tear. You’re not just abandoned, if anything comes up, even years after purchase, we can do our very best to talk you through repairs.
