The Pink Monogram Has an App for Iphone Users

Developer's Notes for: Monogram Gift Rules

Developer's Notes



Our simple monogram rules guide app is designed to take the guesswork out of choosing monograms on gifts for you, your friends, and family.
We cover some of the complicated questions including divorced couples, and seek for find the middle ground between traditional and modern stylings.
The experience we bring to this task includes years as a successful online monogramming gift business and multiple brick and mortar locations in Greenville, South Carolina. There we have had the opportunity to monogram personalized apparel, jewelry, housewares, wedding gifts, custom baby gifts and so much more. Every item that you might think to have embroidered, monogrammed, or engraved we have seen, and every kind of individual and couple has had their initials committed to our gifts. Believe us when we say we spend a lot of time contemplating monograms.


We hope you enjoy our app.


Happy Monogramming!
Welcome iPhone Users,
We are The Pink Monogram, a monogramming company with a prolific online presence and brick and mortar locations.
We made our iPhone app to help untie the knot of monogramming rules and guidelines.

My Favorite Things! Plus it is ok to live "Outside the Box"!

  Since The Pink Monogram is new at blogging ( really it is Monica), I thought I would show everyone my favorite things!  I tried to add them all in one picture so you could get a good idea of me! The combo is Monogrammed Clogs Chanel No5, Lilly Pulitzer, Costa Sunglasses, and my Louis Vuitton. Yes, The Pink Monogram did monogram my LV Bags.  I did it this am after much thought and decided that I really needed to carry something that we monogram in the store. I tried the classic Block Serif.  Before I have floods of people asking me to monogram their LV I would prefer not too!!  I still love the way mine turned out. When I
was in Atlanta last month at the LV Store I noticed they are doing monogramming. It is printed not embroidered on the bags!  The Monogrammed Clogs on the left are brown leather and have a hand painted leopard high heel.  My new favorites are on the right and are called Bomber Jacket!  Those are on a brown high heel.  Those are not monogrammed.  The leather was just sent in and I made me a pair really quickly. Love that new color. It reminds me of an old pair of my Frye Boots!!
Close up of the Embroidery done on my LV Computer Case!
Here is one of my many pairs of Main Line Jeans from Lilly Pulitzer.  I paired them with a pair of my Monogrammed Clogs! 



We wrap all of that Preppy stuff together and here is what I drive.  Candy apple red Mustang Convertible.  This is for the wild side that just will not stay conservative!

So there you have it!! Preppy Greenville SC Girl with an "outside of the box" attitude toward life!

 I am off the get a pedicure and the fabulous nail salon next to my Hayood store called Kim's Nails. My mom treated for my Birthday!  Strawberry  Margarita Pink from OPI so they match me!
See ya !

Learning curve!

The Pink Monogram High Heel Clog
  I thought I might start by trying to add some shots of items that we have on the site thepinkmonogram.com that are new.  I will start off slow with the blog and as I learn more I will add. Trust me- I am watching all of you out there to be my teachers! Soon I will have it! Hate to be the one that is not up on all the Tech stuff!
   Here are some shots of our newest Monogrammed Clogs.
Mocha Nubuck with Turquoise Dots 
Black Leather with Zebra Heels      
All of the Monogrammed Clogs are custom made shoes.  Each one is done to order @The Pink Monogram.
We are very proud of the quality of the Clogs we deliver to our customers.  I have heard from many of you that you have worn your shoes daily for years and they still look good as new!   I would love to hear some of your comments about the shoes!  Thanks for reading my first real try at The Pink Monogram Blog!  I am a visual person so you will see more photos and less text from me in the coming weeks!

Monday - Back at Work

Most of you know that I get up very early and work. I was working on adding new items to the site till 11pm last night and I have been up today since 6am. Putting the finishing touches on adding some new picture frames to the site. This takes a while because I have to create the clusters - lists of options - to upload. Sending out emails later today showing the new items on the site. We have finally added a larger sale area to the site in order to roll out inventory. This is a great time to buy for Christmas since you can pick up several items for a portion of the cost. My customer service rep was out of town last week and it was tough to get much work done. Shelia will be back manning the phones today and most of my embroidery staff will be back in also. As many do not know - I can run the machines since I did it in the beginning by myself, but there is so much else to do now! Today I have many who do it for me along with my staff for accounting and shipping. I have a feeling this blog maybe help me organize my day and keep me on track with what has to be done. Please feel free to ask me any questions and forgive my typing since my fingers run slower than my brain.

The First Blog for The Pink Monogram

OK... Here is my try at my first blog. Not quite sure what I am doing, but if the younger crowd can do this - then so can I. I will try to attach it to my website along with my facebook site. It is Sunday July 26 and I am working on my site as my husband took one child to camp and then the others to buy tennis rackets. Camp Tennis will start next week and of course all have to have new rackets. I will send out about 12,000 newsletters tonight and I guess all will get a taste of my try at blogging. Please feel free to ask any questions and I will answer the best I can. If I can do this then anyone can!! OK, back to working on the site - www.thepinkmonogram.com - Monica
