Built for handmade orders

Keep the customer, design, due date, payment reference, and pickup plan together.
Route submissions to your inbox or spreadsheet so makers receive exact choices.
Flexible selling setups
Start with your selling model, then replace the example products, prices, and fulfillment choices.
Offer school colors and pickup windows while separating each student's personalization.
Capture photos, budgets, specialty materials, and custom notes.
Present packages, then show only their available upgrades.
Collect a roster, quantities, billing contact, and fulfillment plan.
Order workflow
Turn your product menu into a customer form and production brief.
List packages, inclusions, upgrades, prices, deadlines, and service area.
Replace samples, require critical dates, and reveal only relevant questions.
Submit standard, custom, and group orders to check every field.
Publish or embed the form, then route responses for payment, making, and pickup.
Form vs messages vs paper
A conversation can inspire the design, but it is a fragile place to store spelling, deadlines, quantities, and the final set of paid upgrades.
Field guide
Use six focused sections so customers can customize confidently and makers can read each submission like a production ticket.
Customer and recipient
Separate purchaser contact information from recipient details. The student name, grade, school, team, jersey number, and event date often drive both personalization and the deadline.
Product and package
Ask whether the customer needs a mum, garter, matching set, or group bundle before presenting sizes and packages. Include short descriptions so customers understand what each starting option contains.
Color and style
Use approved color options where possible, with a notes field for unusual combinations. Ask about flower type, ribbon treatment, overall theme, and whether the customer wants traditional or specialty styling.
Personalization and extras
Names, numbers, years, activities, charms, bells, lights, boas, and trinkets should be discrete choices rather than one crowded request box. Conditional logic can keep the form manageable.
Price and payment
Show item prices when they are fixed and collect the customer's chosen payment route. Track a deposit or balance reference and payment status without asking customers to type sensitive card details into ordinary text fields.
Deadline and fulfillment
Collect the event date and needed-by date independently, then offer only pickup or delivery windows you can support. Add the authorized pickup person's name for group or prepaid orders.
