Sharing Creativity: Why We Offer a 'Create-a-Stole' Booklet

At Carrot Top Studio, we’re passionate about creativity and the beauty of personal expression. For years, we’ve been crafting unique stoles for clergy, each piece telling a story and carrying deep spiritual meaning. So, why would we offer a Create-a-Stole booklet that shares tips and techniques for designing your own stole? Isn’t that competition?

Quite the opposite!

We believe in the power of sharing and inspiring others to create. The Create-a-Stole: Tips and Techniques booklet is our way of encouraging creativity within individuals or groups, empowering anyone to design their meaningful vestments. Whether you’re creating for a specific occasion or simply want to express your faith through art, this booklet gives you the tools to bring your ideas to life.

At its core, our mission is…

…to share knowledge and foster creative experiences, not to keep it all for ourselves. We want to help others find joy in the process of designing a stole, just as we do every day. The booklet draws from our 20+ years of experience in clergy stole design. We hope that by sharing our insights and expertise, we’ll see even more beautiful and personal stoles in the world, each carrying its own story of faith and inspiration.

SHOPPING OPTIONS

When you purchase the Create-a-Stole: Tips and Techniques booklet, you’re not just buying a supply list and set of tips—you’re joining a community of creatives who appreciate the value of artistic expression in worship. We’re excited to see what you design, and we’re here to support you every step of the way. Tag us (#carrot.top.studio) on Instagram so we can cheer you on!

Happy creating!
