Sugar Locks started in June 2005 a month before the birth of my second child, Gwendelyn.  I was so excited to have a little girl that I began searching for hair accessories to match all of her outfits.  After searching for bows and buying a few at a local boutique I knew that I could make them.  Growing up I have always been interested in crafts and making projects.  In 8th grade I made bubble bows and sold them at a few local craft fairs for $2.00 each.  I always sold out before the show was over.  In high school I created countless hair pieces for prom out of sequins.  After learning how to make bows and was successfully creating bows for friends and family I started selling on ebay.  A month went by and up went www.sugarlocks.com.  A year went by and I started embroidery and sewing for the website.  Now 3 years later and over 1000 products Sugar Locks is what it is today. 

 

Sugar Locks is a home based business in my house in Plainfield, IL.  I now have 3 beautiful children  Reed (5), Gwendelyn (3) and Olivia (1).  Reed and Gwendelyn love to help pack orders up so if you ever see a little writing on the box or a label that is not so perfectly straight, know that it is a 5 or 3 year old helping their mom work :)  I have a wonderful supporting husband of 7 years that has allowed me to convert our dining room into my working office.   My goal is to provide everyone with better than boutique high quality items.  I am constantly searching for way to improve items with new brands for t shirts and other high quality merchandise. 

 

I believe that customer service is what makes a business successful.  I personally handle all emails and phone calls.  If there is ever an issue or you want to place an order with a live person please feel free to email (sugarlocks1@aol.com) or call (815-274-3287).    I also love to do custom orders and I will work with you to create your special personalized item.  I have many customers who drop off or send items they have to be embroidered, if you have something you need done please email me or call me.
