HC: What made you want to start making clothes as a small business?
PS: I’ve been making shirts for my friends and myself for a while now and they told me to start selling them!
HC: What clothes are you making/ What do you do to them?
PS: I make clothes by designing them and then making them by acid washing and sewing!

HC: Where do you see Tallyteesbypaige going in the future? Do you plan on expanding it?
PS: Right now I’m just doing it for fun and because I love seeing girls wear my shirts on game day! I might expand it in the future but I’ve only been at it for a couple of months so we’ll see!
HC: Where can girls go to see and buy your products?
PS: On my page’s Instagram, @tallyteesbypaige, and I can always be reached by DM if anyone has questions!
From making collegiate and game day apparel in her free time to posting her products on Instagram, Paige has truly become a young female entrepreneur making the most out of game days. Be sure to check out her Instagram, @tallyteesbypaige, and check regularly because shirts sell out in the first few minutes that they are posted. You sure don’t want to miss out on these cute clothes for the season!
