Hi!! My name is Cassie and I am an apparel designer/artist. I started this line about 8 years ago after leaving my full time job in the fashion industry. We have shipped to over 1000+ boutiques across the country and we sell at local markets and fairs on the weekends. I came up with the name Paper Cow for two reasons: To let our audience know our graphics are hand drawn, making it a true handmade product. And because the cow quickly became the stand-out character as I was sketching the animals. The line started out with just 4 animals and expanded from there! We also do quite a bit of custom items for our shops including youth and adult sizing by special request...We love working with you on whatever your shop may need! I currently live in Los Angeles with my husband and 3 kids including twins! Please do not hesitate to reach out with any questions or comments-we love hearing from you! :) *Please note that products are designed/screen printing in Los Angeles. The blanks are made in India & Indonesia (some items have USA made components too).
