86 Customs was created by a real-life couple who turned a single T-shirt idea into a thriving creative business. What started as a side hustle in the middle of the pandemic quickly grew into a movement—helping other makers, dreamers, and hustlers create and earn from their own custom products.

With five kids, limited time, and a whole lot of drive, we learned everything the hard way—by doing it. No investors. No big team. Just two people figuring it out together, one design, one order, one breakthrough at a time.

Now, we’re helping others do the same.

At 86 Customs, we:

• Sell custom digital templates, party favors, and apparel
• Offer self-paced courses and live workshops for beginners
• Teach creators how to make money with or without expensive equipment
• Work with families, schools, and organizations to build confidence through crafting

We combine creativity with real-world hustle—making sure everything we teach can be put into action right away, even on a budget.

Because we know what it’s like to start from scratch.

WHY WE TEACH TO OTHERS

We’ve been the ones googling how to fix a paper jam at 2AM before a client pickup. We’ve experienced the doubt, the setbacks, and the fear of starting—but we also know the joy of selling that first item, designing your first logo, or seeing your child light up when they realize they made something real.

86 Customs exists to help others turn creativity into income, skills into confidence, and hustle into legacy.
