Why choose Creative Capes?

Creatives Capes' mission is to teach each child they have their own unique qualities and can be proud of themselves exactly as they are. Each handmade satin cape features the child’s first initial turning them into their own superhero. A personalized cape encourages positive playtime instilling confidence, creative thinking, problem solving, helping others, active play and a healthy self image.

"Watching children burst with pride, self-esteem and happiness when they slipped on their own custom cape and accessories made me realize how impactful a cape could be."

- Holly Hagen, The Cape Lady

How it began

The idea for Creative Capes™ was sparked by a visit from my nephew Max, who was 3 at the time. He wore a plain red cape with a paper mask. He lived in them, filled with empowerment and eager to save anyone in sight. I realized that something as simple as a cape has the power to positively affect a child’s self image. With that inspiration, I pulled out my sewing machine, I refined my ideas and developed a line of personalized satin capes and accessories. I featured the child's first initial on their cape, teaching them they are unique. Watching children burst with pride, self-esteem and happiness when they slipped on their own custom cape and accessories made me realize how impactful a cape could be. It brings me great joy to help kids realize their inner strengths, encourage active play, good citizenship and stimulate their imaginations.

The Cape Lady

I was raised in a very creative environment, with a mom who is a talented fine artist and an entrepreneur for a dad. His passion to empower people with disabilities and her artistic influence set the scene for who I am today.

Empowering kids through art has been my life-long passion. It was only a matter of time before my creative ideas and personal drive lead me to start Creative Capes back in 2010.

As a mom I understand the deep need to be at your very best for your little one. The modern world presents many challenges when it comes to raising kids and in a blink of an eye they grow up on usCountless customers express the joy of seeing their little one beam with pride after slipping on a cape, and its a memory they cherish.

P.S. As a solo entrepreneur, I truly appreciate you choosing to support my small business. Remember word of mouth recommendations is the best compliment!
