Rated 5.0 on Google

Older kids are the hardest to impress.

We had a large group of 13 kids and there was enough space and attention for all of them. The staff made sure all the ideas made it onto the shoes and they came out awesome.

Dana M. 12th birthday, 13 kids

We drove from NH for our daughter’s tenth birthday party. The girls had the most amazing time, and they made it so every child really got the details of what they wanted on their shoes.

Elyse H. Drove from New Hampshire, 10th birthday

Our dance team had custom hip hop tops made and the experience couldn’t have been better. Each design was custom made to what each dancer envisioned.
