I have recently gotten in to the Trucker Hat World, the possibilities are endless when it comes to custom hats, and I am loving every single second of it. I get my patches from multiple places but will share what I can.
My FAVORITE heat press is included in prime day! This little thing is so easy to transport to pop up hat bars, I put it in a tote with all of my supplies and go. If you are new in the hat world I highly suggest this press
