Each Styled Bubbly bottle is hand-painted in Herweck’s at-home studio and completely custom from start to finish. Herweck collaborates with each client from the beginning to incorporate their vision and specific requests into the final product. “It’s a mutual effort,” Herweck says. “ You hand-select your bottle, the background color and the personalization. Everything gets wrapped up into one and is topped with a coordinating bow upon completion!”
