Custom Ethnic Bandana — Cotton Lawn with Beadwork
We make ethnic bandana built around japanese sashiko stitching, produced in Cotton Lawn with beadwork. On ethnic bandana the decision that matters most is edge finish that survives repeated tying and washing, so that is fixed in the tech pack before cloth is bought — not discovered on the first bulk lot. Programmes start at 100 pieces per style per colour and ship to Los Angeles or New York.
The failures here are predictable: minimum order quantities far above what a growing brand can absorb, and colour drift between the approved lab dip and the bulk cloth. We lock the specification before bulk — cloth, trim, dye lot, hem finish and tolerance — and prepare CPSIA and California Prop 65 compliance so shipments clear instead of sitting at port while the Christmas market and holiday window passes.

Care, packing and delivery
Each piece is folded, tissue-wrapped and packed to the ratio you specify, with barcodes and hangtags applied where the retail channel needs them. Care labelling follows the destination's rules. We ship to Los Angeles or New York with the commercial invoice, packing list and certificate of origin, and hold the approved specification on file so reorders reproduce the same cloth, the same shade and the same edge finish that survives repeated tying and washing.
FAQ
What is the minimum order?
Programmes start at 100 pieces per style per colour. Mixed size runs are fine within one style.
How do you control colour on reorders?
The approved lab dip and the bulk reference are retained, and every reorder is checked against them before shipment.
Do you ship to our forwarder?
Yes. We deliver to your nominated forwarder or quote landed cost under the agreed Incoterm.
Can you do small runs across many designs?
Yes — many gift shop and boutique programmes run small quantities across a wide design set.
