Wholesale + Custom Merchandise

“My customers frequently say they are the coolest and cutest stickers they've been able to find." - Jackeline, Souvenir City Chicago

How your customers decorate their water bottles, laptops, and notebooks can say a lot about them and what they support. You want your shop to be filled with well-curated products that are artfully constructed and represent something your customers care about.

That’s why we built a full line of quality art products encompassing themes of:

  • Community pride

  • Chronic illness

  • Mental health awareness

  • Disability pride

  • Plant love

  • Positivity

  • Female empowerment

  • And more!

Original artwork on a wide range of products means more ways for you to connect with your customers and leave a lasting impact.

We’re committed to partnering with the best retailers in Chicago and across the US. You can currently find our products at the Field Museum, Chicago History Museum, Garfield Park Conservatory, Chicago Architectural Center Design Store, Sacred Art, Flyover Chicago, and more locally-owned shops.

PARTNER TESTIMONIAL

“Chelsie has been a phenomenal partner to the Garfield Park Conservatory and its gift shop, and we could not have asked for a better collaborator. Her entrepreneurial spirit and acumen set her apart from her peers and grew a small seed into a mighty oak almost overnight.

Chelsie’s artistic talents and quality items have become a sensation with our customers and her products are among the gift shop’s best-sellers. As a local business owner herself, Chelsie is keenly aware of the challenges and opportunities presented to us in our area and has worked with us to make everything from ordering to billing as simple, quick, and efficient as possible.

We are incredibly grateful for the opportunity to work alongside Chelsie and look forward to continued success!” - William, Manager, Retail and Visitor Services at Garfield Park Conservatory
