Helmet- Custom Creation For Meatport
EVA Foam Helmet - One of a Kind. BRING YOUR SKETCH TO LIFE!!!! Now you can have your very own helmet created just for you and with quality that has only recently come available. EVA Foam is lightweight, durable, and allows ventilation through plastic net in certain areas. For Meatport, we chose ventilated eyes and mouth. The mouth is located at eye level and gives great vision area. The helmet sits on the head securely with a cap made into the inner lining of the helmet and has an adjustable strap so it can be tightened to your fit. I use only the thicker EVA foam for durability. Send me your ideas and we can begin creating a one of a kind product just for you. Price varies depending upon materials and labor required, but I will be happy to give you an estimate. To help you understand pricing, here is a little of what goes into working with EVA Foam. 1. Create your pattern 2. Cut your foam sections 3. Sand all cut areas 4. Glue all sections - wait several hours 5. Use heat gun to smooth surfaces 6. Sand all seams 7. Prime entire area 8. Paint…..Usually 3 - 4 coats with minimum of 1 hour drying between each coat 9. Clear Coat entire area 10. Cut, paint, and insert all ventilation areas 11. Cut and make inner head to fit on head I hope this helps you to understand the cost in making your special EVA Foam project. S/H I do not charge handling fees, only the rate charged by the shipper to ship including insurance to cover the project. In shipping this helmet to Meatport within the U.S., the shipping was very minimal because of the lightweight finished product. It was around $20. REMEMBER: Shipping rates are based on weight, box size, and destination, so each is different. I charge upfront $20 for U.S. shipping and $35 on international but if your rate is more, I will invoice you the balance of shipping at time of shipping.

Great service
This Maker has consistently demonstrated excellence in craftsmanship and customer service.
Born in the late 50's to a family of little
means of income, being resourceful was
a way of life. Whether playing on the red clay hills
of Pontotoc County, Mississippi, in the good ole
USA on imaginary quests or riding
our bike down gravel roads pretending to be in the circus,
life was always full of adventure.
Life has brought many hardships my way
but with each I have learned that only I limit myself.
Life is a challenge, of which I am a survivor
& a conqueror.
I love to be creative no matter what I'm doing.
God has blessed me with joy through sewing, writing,
sculpting, drawing, & also thru the simple things of
life.
My husband & I enjoy spending time
alone or with the house full of family.
I want to be the best that I can be
in whatever I am doing.
That is why I try my best to treat each customer like they
are the only one I have. I want them to know I care about
more than selling…I want to know they are more than pleased
with the item(s) they buy.
If you have purchased or simply corresponded
about a future purchase from GabbiGirlz and
have been more than pleased with us, please
leave us positive feedback and tell others
of your experience.
May God bless you richly, draw you closer,
love you deeper, and keep you forever.

For Alcatraz Prison Uniform Shirt Remake5.0Thank you, Kathy. Excellent shirt
DMDenise McAleer
For Costume5.0I cannot express how happy I am! I needed a replica of Freddie Mercury's crown for a photoshoot and Kathy not only came through, she exceeded my expectations! She was in constant contact about progress, was able to finish the item and get it shipped in record time. The finished product was even better looking in person. If I ever need a custom item ever again, Kathy will be the one that I come to. She was understanding (my bank account was hacked at the beginning and she was patient as I dealt with the bank) and very friendly. I cannot recommend her enough!!
TTTJ Tyrrell
For TJ's Costume5.0I would definitely work together again! She was easy to work with, very communicative (always kept me up to date with progress), and delivered a fantastic product well within the agreed-upon timeline! If you are looking for someone to work with, you'd be hard-pressed to find anyone better!

For Matthew's Costume5.0There’s so much to say about Kathy. Very professional and quick. She took an idea I had and made it ten times better than what I could have imagined. She communicated very well. Her customer service was perhaps the best I’ve ever encountered and would recommend her for any projects a person might have. She definitely is the person I’d turn to for my next project.

For Vests5.0Very precise and methodical with many touch bases with just what I needed to get what I wanted . The product is excellent ! I wore it and it I got compliments. I did not find the extra buttons. I went through all the packaging... maybe they are still coming. I probably would change them to a more suit style.

Kenneth Andrews
For Kenneth's Costume5.0I found Kathy while searching for a stage costume maker for my David Bowie tribute show. I feel very fortunate to have found her. Kathy is highly professional, insightful, and a terrific communicator. We worked together by email as I'm in Tokyo, Japan. Her costume re-creation is amazing and gets lot's of "Wows" from my audience. I'm looking forward to our next project, if she has time! Someone this good is bound to be very busy! https://www.facebook.com/kennethandrewandtheoddities/photos/pcb.2119628444916080/2119628348249423/?type=3&theater

For Minnie Mouse Poodle Polka Dot Skirt3.2It's not the material I expected. It's poor production Picture looks better to be honest. The picture is hot pink. What I received looks cheap material. It's her 1st bday and I wanted a beautiful memory. This skirt won't do it. But thank you.

CMCarl Mason
For Carl's Mens Clothes5.0First of all, let me just say I love Kathy Lee aka GabbiGirlz!!!!! The outfit that she made for me is outstanding!!! I love it!!! I can't stop gushing over it. When I tried it on, I couldn't stop smiling. My boyfriend even complimented on how great the outfit looks on me. The communication, detailed information, explanations for minor changes(to make things work), and skill were phenomenal!!!! She is very knowledgeable about what she's doing. I'm trying to control my happiness while I type this so I don't ramble. I got the outfit a week ahead of the deadline. When issues popped up(material, color, etc.), she knew just how to make things work. SHE EVEN DYED THE MATERIAL!!!! so I'd have the color I wanted. I can't say enough!!! Using today's slang, she slaaaaaayed!!!!! this outfit!!! She gets 10s across the board!!! If you want something made, she is the person to do it. I'm actually wearing my outfit while I type this because I don't want to get out of it. That's how much I love it. I will take it off as soon as I hit send so that it is fresh for the event that I am wearing it to. LOVE IT!!! THANK YOU!!!!
DSDavid Sugarman
For Houndstooth Short Sleeve Shirt4.8I was looking for this specific item--a shirt like the one worn by a character in a TV show--for one of my best friends and was thrilled to find it available here. Though $90 is a lot for a shirt, he is SO happy with the gift. Working with GabbiGirlz was a pleasure--she responded immediately, kept me updated on the project status, and shipped it quickly. And it came out perfectly. Thank you!

Matthew Schumacher
For Golf Pants5.0Excellent product. Produced exactly what I wanted. Just make sure when ordering pants that you measure your waist and don't go off the pants size that you purchased in store because they are probably not true to size. It's now a good reason for me to drop a few pounds. Again she provided the exact product I requested. Would totally recommend and would use her service again.
