They put together an amazing event last-minute and made over 50 hats in a little over 2 hours! They had every style of hat you could imagine. 10/10!!!!Posted on Google Jordan DillonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. The best experience! Love my hat so much and can’t wait to wear it to all the Nashville events I have coming up! 10/10 recommend!Posted on Google Thomas DahlborgTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doreen - The way you cared for our grandbabies and ensured they each received their special cowgirl hats, how kind you were to my bride (and shared tips such as Semler Cattle Co), the way you helped me with my terrific cowboy hat - brilliant - we appreciate you. And we appreciate both Semler Cattle Co and Leiper’s Fork Distillery too. You are all good people sharing goodness. Thank you. 🙏🏼 We all hope to see you again soon ... plus ... we already have family planning trips to Tennessee to get their custom hat from you too! God Bless TomPosted on Google taylor thomasTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. i cannot even find the right words to say how much i love the costum cowgirl! She sure does know how to make someone who is not a hat person become a hat person! Being able to chose each custom piece and being able to have reason behind it made it so much more special. 100% recommend for big groups, small groups, individuals she’s incrediblePosted on Google Paylor LyonTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. I could not recommend Doreen and her company more! I am NOT a hat person because I feel like hats never looks good on me! I have always tried but failed. Doreen’s hats and everything she sources is so high quality, it made me completely change my perspective on hats! I am completely in love with my hat and everything it stands for! Doreen helped me design it and gave me ideas to make it meaningful, special and also look so good! This was such a fun experience and will rant and rave about it for years to come!Posted on Google Bridget LeeTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Doreen helped guide each person in our group on a journey to tell their personal story via decorating their hat in a personal way. It was so much fun and everyone came home with hats that matched each person’s personality and life. Thank you Doreen!Posted on Google Kelsey HaldemanTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My office had Doreen bring her Custom Cowgirl magic to our company staff retreat and it was AMAZING. Doreen encouraged us to tell our stories through our hats and everyone’s ended up being so perfect for each individual. I didn’t even consider myself to be a hat girl, but I am obsessed with my hat. The level of detail and care that Doreen puts into her craft did not go unnoticed. Love that she supports local- and women-owned businesses for her custom details such as feathers, etc. Hats are super high quality and so many colors and styles to choose from, even if you do not identity as a “cowgirl.”😊CANNOT RECOMMEND ENOUGH.Posted on Google Michael ScottTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. Love Doreen. Her hats are amazing. Highly recommend!Posted on Google Stephanie HewkoTrustindex verifies that the original source of the review is Google. My daughter and I received the most picturesque hats as a gift and I can’t even count the compliments anymore! My hat is the most gorgeous color and the customization options perfectly blend together for a beachy cowgirl look. I wear it every chance I get! Someone’s around the house just for fun. My daughter’s hat is a showstopper! Not only is it the perfect, muted shade of pink, but she shaped the crown into a HEART! Yes, a heart! It’s the most unique feature and has become a conversation piece everywhere we go! Thank you so much for the time and thought that went into each detail and I simply cannot wait to create more!
