Fck it; Just Glue It: Why My Brand Is for the Rebels
Let’s get one thing straight—I didn’t start this teenie tiny business to play nice or fit in. I started it as a hobby and it still is one. I’m not in this for the money — that’s for damn sure.
I started it because nothing out there matched me:
👉 Over 50 and owning every damn year
👉 A retired big-city cop who’s seen some sh*t
👉 A glue gun-wielding, truth-telling, slightly bougie hippie
👉 A loudmouth introvert with a love for color, sass, and the occasional well-placed f-bomb
Welcome to my world—Hot Glue & Hippie Sht*, Witty Revolt, and The 509 Unfiltered. This isn’t your grandma’s craft shop.
✂️ Why I Create
After decades in law enforcement, I needed more than just rules and order. I craved color, chaos, and a place to be unapologetically myself. So I started a hobby that I just can’t live without.
Handmade, high-quality goods with zero mass-produced BS (mistakes and all)
A “hat bar” and craft classes that mix sparkle and sass (personality matters)
Bold, edgy, sometimes rated-R vibes that let you drop the mask (because F-CAW-F)
Teaching others to make magic—even if it means hot-gluing your fingers together
🎨 Who I’m Here For
I’m not here for beige neutrals or Pinterest-perfect crafts.
I’m here for the rebels:
Late bloomers and messy makers
People who swear when their Cricut blade breaks
Dog moms, truth-tellers, wanderers, and wild hearts
Anyone who rocks hot pink like a damn crown
Folks who want to make life their own damn way
You’re not just a customer—you’re family. Welcome to the Hot Glue & Hippie Sh*t tribe.
🌵 What I Make (and Why It’s So Damn Fun)
My creations are a wild mix of practical, hilarious, and totally unique:
YOU Paint porch signs - IDK, IDC, IDGAF anyone?
DIY craft kits like my Crushed Glass Animal Art Series that bring sparkle and sass
Laser-engraved goodies—custom coasters, tumblers, dog tags, and more
Dog poop bag holders with real attitude (because even crap cleanup can be fun)
Pop-up craft parties and a full-on hat bar experience
Trailer-side crafting classes where wine and creativity flow (coming next camping season)
AND SO MUCH MORE!
And yes, I haul all my gear with me: hat press, mug press, sublimation tools, laser cutter products, and enough vinyl to wallpaper a small city.
💥 Why Glitter & Swearing Work
People underestimate the power of humor and a well-timed swear word.
Humor breaks the ice. Honesty builds community.
That’s why my brand isn’t just about cute stuff—it’s about permission:
Permission to make a mess
Permission to start late
Permission to be loud, weird, and imperfect
When I say “Fck it, just glue it,” it’s not just a slogan—it’s a damn movement.
🎙️ The Bigger Picture: Witty Revolt & The 509 Unfiltered
This is about more than crafts.
It’s creativity as rebellion.
It’s about a community having fun and recording it to relive the laughter. (of course you can decline to be recorded, but why?)
I host The 509 Unfiltered YouTube channel to spotlight local grit, nonprofits, weird roadside attractions, and the stories that don’t get told. It’s community without a filter—just like my brand.
