Itz a Stitch by Evan Orensten
Adding personal flair to Waspy needlepoint, custom-made accessories from Itz a Stitch make an ingenious gift for rebel preppies. Select lettering and iconography from the company's library (add an extra $50 for images that fall outside of their collection) to make a one-of-a-kind belt, pair of slippers, wallet, compact and more. Available for $300 from Itz a Stitch, items take about six weeks from ordering to arrive.
