Triskele perfect.

For anyone that has ordered and Ocah Carrier is the past 3 years, or have asked about Ocah carriers then it is likely that you will have received assistance from the very lovely Claire.  I was sooooo pleased when Claire decided that she needed a new Ocah, and I really loved the design that she chose, it has worked out beautifully.

This Ocah wrap converison has been made form a super soft Didymos Indio Burgund.  It is a pre-schooler sized Ocah Full Buckle Carrier.  It has been made with 2 extra internal layers and has Leg padding, arms out Padding, extra top stitching on the waist and  an Adjustable Sleephood with stunning Triskele Embroidery by Ruth.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Girl POWer !

Yup another Wrap and Fabric Combo that we got super excited about when it arrived.  The combination of Alexander Henry "Thunder Flower" fabric with the Hoppediz Chicago wrap was genius ! it works so well together.  

This Ocah Wrap Conversion is a Hybrid Conversion with custom Duo straps, Adjustable Sleep hood, Leg padding and Arms Out padding.  The Straps have been made slighlty shorter than usual with less padding for this petite Mama.

Those speedy slots!

The idea behind the speedy slots was that we take the order details and then have the wraps in the studio ready to cut and sew 1 week later.   However we have had a lot of enquiries from Mamas overseas who will not be able to get their wrap to us by the end of the week and these Mamas have asked how they can be included in these speedy slots. So after trying to work out how this can work we are going to give the following new system a try.  

On Monday at 8pm UK time there will be 6 slots available in the Ocah Bigcartel store.

Please DO NOT purchase a slot if you are not sure what kind of wrap conversion you want or do not have wrap to send.  You can purchase a wrap from Ocah, we can order any Hoppediz wrap and provide a 10% discount for wraps ordered from us for your Ocah Conversion.  We are also happy for you to order your wrap from another Vendor but we would prefer that any new wraps ordered arrive with us no later than Monday in order that we can get your wrap washed and dried prior to chopping ready to sew on the following day. You can of course send one of your own wraps to us for converting.

Once you have purchased your Slot in our bigcartel store you will be sent an email with an order form to fill out online.

We reserve the right to cancel any slots booked where order details are not completed within 48 hours of the slot being purchased. If you are not sure which wrap you would like converting or which style of Conversion you would prefer then please do not  purchase one of these slots, more slots will be available soon where you will be given more time to decide on the details of your conversion before confirming your order details.

You will be charged a £10 deposit when purchasing a Custom slot through our Bigcartel store.  This Deposit is no refundable.

Once we have received your completed order form we will confirm the details of your order and send an invoice for payment in full for the cost of your Ocah wrap conversion, minus the £10 deposit that you have already paid.

Overseas Customers: You are welcome to purchase a quick slot through our bigcartel store.  The same rules apply with regards to completing the online order form that you will receive when you purchase your slot.   We would ask that your wrap is sent to us either directly from yourself or from a Vendor within 48hrs of your order being completed. If you wrap is being sent from a Country outside of the EU and will not arrive with us by Friday we will move your slot back allowing another 7 days for your wrap to arrive with us.

Re-listing quick slots that have been purchased by customers outside of the EU.

If we receive an order for a Quick slot from a customer outside of the EU whose wrap is due to be sent from a Country outside of the EU, the slot that they have taken will be re-listed and their order re-scheduled for completion 2 weeks after the date their slot was purchased.  This will allow additional time for their wrap to arrive with us and will free up space on our schedule which can be taken by another customer.   If the re-released slot is then taken by another Mama from outside the EU and whose wrap is due to be sent from outside of the EU, we will not be re-listing this slot for a third time. 

We will be operating a rolling customs list and we will not be scheduling more than 6 slots for sewing in any one week and we will not take orders for more than 2 weeks in advance in order that we can maintain a quick turnaround of Wrap conversions. We will publicise the number of slots that are available each week in advance of them being made available and we will provide updates in all of the usual places if any purchased slots are to be re-listed as detailed above.

This may mean that due to taking orders for Conversion from Mamas overseas we may have some weeks where more than 6 slots are available for purchase followed by no slots the following week.  We will not schedule a date for chopping and sewing your wrap conversion until wrap arrives with us at our studio.

Only one slot per person will be allowed.  Slots are non- transferable. 

 

If you purchase a slot we will send you an email with the follow form attatched: (It looks much nicer when it is emailed !) DO NOT COMPELTE THE FORM HERE ! THIS IS A SAMPLE FOR INFORMATION PURPOSES ONLY !

Super Speedy Custom slots.

After the sucess of our trial of offering Semi- custom slots  a few weeks ago, we will have Some quick custom slots available next week. If you know what you want and have a wrap ready to sew, or want to order a Hoppediz from us, we will be taking NEW semi-custom / Custom orders on Monday for sewing the week commencing 16th May. So to confirm you can send your own wrap (new from another vendor or one you have to hand) for these new custom slots or we can order a Hoppediz wrap for you.

These custom carriers can include Duo Straps, leg padding, and arms out padding but we are not taking any new orders for the OFB (Ocah Full buckle) until the Begining of June as these are sewn exclusively by me and I am still working on exsiting custom orders.

As it is intended that these new Customs will be sewn the week commencing 16th May we cannot arrange custom appliques or embroidery on these carriers.

More custom slots with a longer sewing time will be available just as soon as we have all current Customs carriers sewn and have got through yet another Bank Holiday with all of the re-shuffling of work times that comes with having four busy little girls off from school for a week 

 

More details to follow.

Semi Custom Carriers.

We had great fun working on these Semi-customs, the first that we made available on a trial basis, more of these slots will be available very soon.
