Hi, I'm Lauren!
Happy Hats was born at my daughter's end-of-year school party. The room parents organized a hat bar, and watching the kids create their own designs and light up when they saw the finished product was pure joy! I fell in love with the process right then and there.
What started as a fun creative experiment quickly grew into custom creations of all kinds, from hats and tote bags to pouches, keychains, gifts, and personalized pieces for teams, trips, celebrations, businesses, and everyday fun!
My favorite projects usually start with a simple message: "I have an idea!" From there, I get to help turn it into something real, and that's the best part.
Every item is designed, created, and packed by hand in Austin, Texas. Whether you're planning a girls' trip, celebrating your team, promoting your business, or just want something uniquely you, I'd love to create something special together!
Custom orders are open now, and a curated collection of ready-to-shop favorites is coming soon.
