Bubblegum and Bliss started with a simple idea, make everyday work accessories a little more fun.
What began as a small handmade badge reel shop has grown into a collection of hundreds of designs made for nurses, healthcare workers, teachers, veterinary professionals, physical therapists, and anyone who wears an ID badge every day. I've always loved creating designs with personality, whether that means something cute, sarcastic, seasonal, meaningful, or just funny enough to make a long shift a little better.
Every badge reel is made by hand in my small Washington-based studio, from preparing the artwork and printing each design to assembling and finishing the final piece. I pay close attention to the details because I know these aren't just accessories. They become part of your everyday routine, clipped to your scrubs, uniform, lanyard, or work bag shift after shift.
Over time, Bubblegum and Bliss has expanded beyond standard badge reels to include personalized designs, custom photo reels, swappable toppers, magnets, and other small accessories. One of my favorite parts of running the shop is creating something personal, whether it's a reel featuring a favorite photo, a design made for a specific specialty, or a bulk order for an entire team.
Running Bubblegum and Bliss has been a hands-on journey of designing, experimenting, improving, packing orders, answering messages, and learning what customers actually want. The shop has changed a lot along the way, but the goal has stayed the same: to create well-made products that feel personal, useful, and a little more fun than the standard workday essentials.
Thank you for supporting a handmade small business. Every order allows me to keep designing, creating, and sending a little bit of happiness into workplaces across the country.
