Wild Ivy Shirt Co.

It's not too early to start thinking about winter sports! We'll be releasing new designs for the upcoming season over the next couple of weeks.

Tell me what school and what winter sport you'd like to see!

If you'd like to stop in outside of our posted hours, shoot me a message first to make sure someone will be around!

Come see us this weekend. Whether you've just got an order to pick up or you're needing something cute new off the racks, come see us! We've got some new things to show off and we know you'll love them!

While I loved my little Wild Ivy Shirt Co. sign in the ditch, it was time for it to go....

Thanks to my very patient husband who is so giving of his time to create my vision and our fabulous neighbors over at Farmer Family Farms for making the digging of two holes sooo much easier. Thank you to our daughter Kaitlin's sweet boyfriend for bringing the muscle and helping us get this giant sign into the holes and helping us level it up.

And then once the sign was all in place, the amazing husband trimmed all of the trees in the front yard so you could see it coming from the west! Our fabulous daughters brought the muscle and hauled all of the tree branches to the burn pile.
I couldn't be happier with how it turned out. I have so many people to be thankful for in my life!

I'm open 1-5 today if anyone needs anything....(minus the 2:30-3:00 run to the school)

My back-to-school rush is slowing down! Let me just say THANK YOU for all of the support. The twelve hour days, rush shipping, middle of the night wake ups stressing about what needed to be done and daily runs to ship out orders is all worth it! I thank of all the people that make that chaos possible and truly recognize how lucky I am to be doing what I love for people who are absolutely amazing.

A special thanks to my husband and kids. I’m already not what most would consider to be a domestic diva, even though I try…(a little). This time of year highlights how truly bad I am a making sure everything is taken care of on the home front. My husband has carried that burden in a big way. He’s made us meals, reminded me of appointments, and has be ever so patient with me. Jim, you’re spectacular. The girls are excelling in academics and their extracurricular activities and make me so proud that they can keep on target when I’m focused on the shop. Love you three more than you’ll ever know!

With that said, I just want to show you a custom I just finished. I customer came to me with a partial idea and I ran with it.

I’m open for custom order art requests! Let me know what you’re looking for and I’ll do my best to make it happen!

Well, this is going to be a post you don't see everyday, but I'm going to try to highlight everything the best I can.

A few years ago, our friends over at Spring River Nursery introduced us to a program call Harvest Hosts.

Harvest Hosts is a community that brings together people who are traveling in their RV's a way to connect with small businesses along their route.

It's essentially a way for travelers to stay out of crowded campgrounds while also supporting small businesses. RVer's come and park at our shop and rest up for their next day of travel at zero cost to the traveler. In exchange, they're suggested to spend $20 at the small business for their hospitality.

If you have have an RV and travel much, I highly recommend checking them out. They are a membership based service that you pay an annual fee for access their directory of hosts.

We have travelers that stop in usually 2-4 times per week. We have met people from all over the country and even a handful of Canadians. It's always interesting to hear their stories and find out what kind of journey they're on. Some people are just on vacation. Some are road warriors that live full-time in their RV. Some are retired, and some work remotely. It really just depends.

Our guest that we had last night were super impressive! Wesley, Dylan and Austin pulled in with their gooseneck trailer and FOUR amazing doggies. They're all part of the Puppy Pals Live show!

Rudy, Gismo, Cash and Chip were absolutely amazing! One of them did a BACKFLIP last night...why didn't I video it? I was a little "fan girly" toward these sweet pups and I'm so happy I had the chance to meet them.

They'll be performing in Nixa on Sunday and I believe there are still tickets available if you'd like to check them out. https://www.aetoscenter.net/events/aetos-events

If these doggies don't impress you, wait...there's more!

Wesley has been on American's Got Talent, Britain's Got Talent and so many more tv programs and contests. He holds the record for...

RIDING A THIRTY-FOUR foot tall UNICYCLE. Yeah, think that through. That's about the equivalent of a 4 story building! Wesley splits his time between Puppy Pals Live and the Ringling Bros. Circus! You can find Wesley Williams-The One Wheel Wonder on FB @ https://www.facebook.com/onewheelwesley

But wait...there's more!

Dylan is also a circus performer! You can find him on FB @ https://www.facebook.com/daredevildylanofficial/
Whoooah....Wheel of Death...that's enough to make my knees shake and make sure my feet are planted firmly on the ground!

Last but not least Austin...He might be my favorite of the three. Don't tell Wesley & Dylan. 🤫. Austin handles all of the MERCHANDISE! As a t-shirt printer, we all know I like the merch tables! Austin also takes his fair share of the traveling and helps with Chip, Gizmo, Cash and Rudy! Plus, Austin keeps his feet on the ground and that's a-okay in my book!

I'm incredibly grateful for all of our Harvest Host guests. I hope you all enjoyed the read and I always encourage you to shop small, shop local and invest in your community. ❤️

We're so excited about the BIG changes coming to Wild Ivy!

Over the last four years, we have continued to pivot our business model to reach the changing demands.

When we started Wild Ivy as a small, online only t-shirt shop housed in our spare bedroom, we could have never dreamed of what the future would look like.

If you would have asked me four years ago if I was going to be in the spirit wear business, I'm not sure what I would have said, but looking back now, spirit wear was where I was supposed to be.

With that said, our spirit wear side of things has exploded in the last year and my 600 square feet of shop space is feeling a little tight. Starting on August 3rd, I will begin liquidating everything in my shop that is NOT SPIRIT WEAR!

This includes denim, purses, non-spirit wear jewelry, shoes, hats, dresses, cardigan, and more. All sale items will be pulled out onto the patio for easy shopping!

Sale schedule:
Saturday, August 3rd, 9am-5pm - 50% OFF
Sunday, August 4th, 12pm-5pm - 50% OFF
Monday, August 5th, 10am-6pm - 60% OFF
Tuesday, August 6th, 10am-6pm - 60% OFF
Wednesday, August 7th, 10am-6pm - 75% OFF
Thursday, August 8th, 10am-6pm - 75% OFF

Come help us clear our racks as we get ready for this upcoming school year! We are so excited to be making this change so that we can focus solely on spirit wear!

The biggest "THANK YOU" to all of the people that are making this change possible. You have rallied around me and supported this dream of mine from the get-go. I am extremely humbled and feel so very blessed to have all of you on this journey with me.
