About

Hi, I am Christi.

Press and Craft is a small home studio in the Dallas-Fort Worth area. I make vinyl-pressed shirts and laser-engraved gifts for Black women who lead, build, and celebrate.

By day I work in conversation design and AI at GoDaddy and New Era. By night and on weekends, I press shirts and engrave keepsakes for the people in my life and the strangers who feel like sisters by the time they hit checkout. Both jobs are about the same thing: making something that says, I see you. I made this for you.

What I make

• Vinyl-pressed statement tees, evergreen designs that wear well past one season
• Personalized shirts for ERG events, sister circles, and Founders Day moments
• Laser-engraved gifts: bamboo cutting boards, acrylic recognition blocks, leather keychains
• Group orders for ERGs, sorority chapters, brunch crews, and book clubs

What I do not make

Tumblers. Sublimation. Embroidery. Random crafts. I keep my menu small on purpose so the work I do put out is work I am proud of.

How I work

Every shirt is pressed by hand. Every engraving gets a proof image before it gets engraved. If you order something personalized, I will email you a proof within 1 to 2 business days. You approve, I make, I ship. Made-to-order means a slightly longer wait than mass-produced merch, and a much better result.

Also find me on Etsy

If you prefer to buy through Etsy, my shop is open over there too: Press and Craft on Etsy. The bamboo cutting board first sold there. New designs land here on pressandcraft.com first.
