FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

  • What is Cassidy Designs?
    Cassidy Designs is a non profit organization, that specializes in hand making products varying from hand embroidered sweatshirts and other apparel, to paintings and more. Cassidy Designs prays over each item during the design and creation process. Desiring to point others to Jesus and remind them they are fully known, fully loved, and knit together with such care and intention by Their Creator in Heaven, fearfully + wonderfully. Cassidy Designs also hopes to encourage others to clothe themselves in Truth - to believe it, and to walk in it. Forever.
  • Why is Cassidy Designs a Non Profit Organization?
    Cassidy Designs has always been more than a hand embroidery business. It has always been a ministry to Cassidy, founder + owner. And she fully believes it is more to God too, for she has seen Him show up too many times in this space to believe otherwise. In 2021, The Lord put on her heart the dream and desire to clothe all people in Truth, because we all need it. We were all created for it. Specifically, He gave her a vision + a heart to clothe children in the foster care system. This past winter, Cassidy Designs donated 40 prayed over sweatshirts to Fostering Hope and Wrap Around ministries through Church of The City, clothing 40 children and foster parents in Truth. What a gift. We are humbled and blown away at the stories - heard and unheard - of what God is doing in this space. And He keeps whispering to me, this is only the beginning. You can partner with Cassidy Designs by purchasing a sweatshirt of your own, by donating money to fund this dream of ours, and most importantly praying. We say "this dream of ours," as in Cassidy Designs + God's. Because something this sweet, we could have never come up with on our own! Thank You Jesus!
  • Why should I shop with Cassidy Designs?
    Cassidy Designs is more than just a hand made apparel shop. Cassidy Designs desires to partner with The Lord to help lead others to Jesus by each design. She prays over your sweatshirt as she is designing and embroidering them each by hand. She desires nothing more than for you to know + trust that Your Creator made you with an even deeper care + intention than she puts into each design. He loves you so. And He desires you put on the Truth He speaks over you, so you would know, believe, and walk in it. Cassidy Designs would love for you to shop with us because you are shopping with a purpose. A portion of each purchase will go toward providing a sweatshirt for children and families in the foster care system. Your choice to shop with Cassidy Designs is helping put God's Word, The Truth, on someone else! What a gift.
  • What are Truth Tags?
    Truth tags are the tags sewn into every Cassidy Design. A few years ago, Cassidy was convicted over her old tags. Why would you need to see her name on your sweatshirt, when you could see truth every time? Her prayer over each Cassidy Design is that of Paul's in Colossians 3, that you would put on truth, and walk in it. She prayerfully hand embroiders each Truth Tag and sews them into your Cassidy Design. Because even the words of Truth that God speaks over each of His children are specific, Cassidy loves praying over which Truth goes into your sweatshirt. Sadie Rob Huff says it best, "Why would we let a carless word have more power over our lives than the very word that has been spoken over us since before the beginning of time?" May we listen to The Truth. May we believe it. Clothe ourselves in it. Walk in it. It's what we were created for. Xx

  • How should I care for my Cassidy Designs?
    Each Cassidy Design is uniquely made by hand. Not one is the same. Which is the fun part! In each Cassidy Design, your hand embroidery is secure. There is no need to worry about it coming up. However, we encourage you to not intentionally pull on it, or of course try to mess it up by taking something sharp to the threading. When washing your Cassidy Designs, please know it has already been preshrunk. However, to keep the softness lasting the longest, we encourage you to wash on gentle cold, and tumble dry low.
  • How should I go about sizing?
    It is up to your preference, however, Cassidy loves oversizing her sweatshirts. This is how she typically explains our sizing to customers. Cassidy is a size Medium, however she only wears a L Cassidy Design. She loves XL for more length, and XXL as well. Every Cassidy Design will shrink in the wash the first time, but when sent to you, it will already be preshrunk. Have you ever tried her crop style? Upon request, you can have Cassidy crop your sweatshirt right above where the sweatshirt cinches at the waist. She believes the crop above the elastic at the bottom makes a L a true L. If you have any further questions or need more assistance, you can email cassidyydesigns@gmail.com, or direct message @cassidyydesigns on instagram! And we will get back to you as soon as possible.
