BONNERS FERRY -- Vinyl Expressions opened their doors Jan. 1 and according to owner Angela Hittle, customers return for their speciality vinyl imprinted items.
“The business began by me making shirts and sweatshirts with our other business’s logo on them,” said Hittle. “It was time to either make it a full time career or stop.”
Word of mouth helped spread the news of new business since day one, said Hittle. In the short time since opening, Hittle, moved two blocks down on July 1 to her new location at 6371 Kootenai Street. To accommodate customer demands, Hittle expanded the new location into the next building on Aug. 1.
“It is all about customer service,” said Hittle. “If a customer is ever not happy with the product, I want to the opportunity to make it right.”
The expansion allows for custom banners, signs and added merchandise. In need of Badger gear for an upcoming game? Vinyl Expression has all the items to cheer on the Badgers, from cowbells to stadium seats.
Vinyl imprinting is not just for clothing. Printed images, or words can be placed on wood, windows, banners or signs. Signs can be made to order by Vinyl Expressions with PVC, aluminum or coroplast.
Vinyl Expressions is open Tuesday through Friday from 10:30 a.m. until 5:30 p.m.
