Welcome to Crafting with Brandy. My name is Brandy Pate and I am the owner of my home-based business in Chelsea, Alabama.
I have been a crafter and creator as well as a graphic designer for many years. I began Crafting with Brandy in 2011 just after my second child was born as a way to help my sister’s family with medical expenses.
Due to the support of family and friends, Crafting with Brandy quickly found its footing which afforded me the joy of becoming a small business owner as well as a stay-at-home mom for my two beautiful children.
Initially, Crafting with Brandy began with sewing and appliqueing children’s clothing. Over the last 11 years, my skillset has grown and flourished and I now offer countless items in all genres of crafting. I specialize in screen print, vinyl, and sublimation shirts. I also have been creating specialized zipper port shirts for the last 4 years for individuals that need port access for chemotherapy and other medical treatments. It is such a blessing to get to wake up each day and use my creative talents to make lives a little easier.
Our Team has grown as well!
I am so blessed that I have an extremely talented family and everyone chips in to help make this business successful. My sister Tracy manages my orders, product listings, inventory and has worked tirelessly to build this website. I am truly grateful for all her hard work.
My sister Danielle, is an amazing graphic designer and jewelry maker and helps with countless CwB projects. Her talents have been a huge blessing to make our products the highest quality at affordable prices.
I partner with many other local companies including The Paisley Path for applique and embroidery, Scarlett Rose Designs for one-of-a-kind SVG designs, Danielle Fenning Designs and Layne Designs for jewelry and specialized gifts.
And none of this would be possible without the help of my loving husband, Adam. From website work, order delivery and pretty much carrying every box that arrives at my house. He is my rock and he continually supports me and encourages me to grow and take chances.
