I'm a Navy Veteran and Navy Wife. I served 4 years in the Navy as an Operations Specialist on board the USS Gettysburg (CG-64). My husband is an LDO (Limited Duty Officer). He was an FCC and was picked up for LDO while deployed to Iraq as an IA. There were two different instances in his career that inspired me to design military pride shirts and gifts. The first was when he made chief and I couldn't find any way of displaying my pride in my chief at the NEX, so I decided to create my own. It was fun, so I made a couple more simple designs, but then I got busy with school and kind of forgot about it. Then, my husband was selected to deploy to Iraq as an individual augmentee. Once again, I wanted some way to display my support for my husband, and couldn't' find anything. So..........I made an IA Wife shirt design and a few other designs for parents of sailors deployed to war zones. The designs became popular, so I started creating more. It became a wonderful hobby that kept me busy while my husband was deployed.
I absolutely love doing this. I love creating military pride designs and am always up for personal requests. If anyone has a new idea for me, I'd love to hear it! I also like to hear feedback from my customers, bad or good. You can contact me at usnchic@hotmail.com.
I do have three different websites that I sell my designs on: Cafepress, Zazzle and Spreadshirt. They all offer different products, and I like the variety. I do, however, wish there was one website that offered exactly what I want, but there isn't. Maybe some day!
Lastly, I ask that you please become a fan of my page on Facebook. Thank you for your support!
p.s. I did import some blog posts regarding my shops and other military related posts from my other blog, which is why there are posts older than this one. :)
