I bought a tank top with a Mermaid breastfeeding her baby mermaid on it a while back and I absolutely love it. It’s so well done, held up amazingly in the wash. Great reasonable prices. And a very friendly shop owner, Jessa! Our sons have the same name and we just chatted for a while about our kids. Kind owner, great affordable items! Would definitely recommend. 10/10! Also her murals downtown have made our city BEAUTIFUL! So much talent.

My girl Jessa at Dear Alchemy is amazing. She’s professional, funny and nice. Got a custom order? DONE. Need 1 tee for your daughter? DONE. Need a portrait of your beautiful family? DONE. JESSA IS THE WOMAN FOR THE JOB. Her work is impeccable and her attention to detail is phenomenal. Her passion and care for others is why she does what she does! I live in Michigan and if I ever needed anything from her she would PROVIDE!

I absolutely adore Dear Alchemy Collaboratory! Jessa is absolutely amazing to work with from a professional standpoint and a personal standpoint. I am both a customer and a Collaborator. She has supported my small embroidery business by Collaborating with me on the embroidery needs of Dear Alchemy. So easy to work with and amazingly talented! She has always messaged me regarding purchasing from her very promptly. I would highly recommend her expertise and her artistic ability to create anything you can imagine.

Jessa takes pride in the work she puts out there. I have seen her study fabrics and I can tell you, she has so much knowledge. Everything I have ever ordered has held up amazing. Nothing has faded. Nothing has shrank. Everything she sells, she puts her heart in soul into. The talent is impeccable and her heart is golden.

I love doing business with Dear Alchemy! Jessa is so friendly and creative. Ive had clothing with her designs printed on it, a picture of me and my husband designed by her that I adore and my children have attended a paint party there. They had a blast and had artwork to bring home and cherish forever. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants something beautiful and creative and different with a welcoming atmosphere. Dear Alchemy AND Jessa are good for this town.

I wanted to gift my mom a re-creation of an older drawing of my grandparents that was lost. I didnt have a picture of the older drawing and basically just described it to Jessa from my memory and she brought my imagination to life and exceeded all of my expectations. It was absolutely beautiful and my mom loved it! Jessa was very responsive and good about updating me on the status throughout the process. She is insanely talented and I would recommend her to anyone in need of some original and creative artwork. Her work stands out and is like no other!

I rarely leave google reviews but the owner, Jessa, of Dear Alchemy deserves much recognition and appreciation. She is so talented, hardworking and such a beautiful soul! I ordered a shirt from her for my mom and she even personally hand delivered it to my mother who lives in the next town over to ensure it arrived in time.The level of customer satisfaction she provides is outstanding! I am so thankful for the beautifully designed high quality merch! I highly recommend stopping by Dear Alchemy if you are ever in Elizabeth City, NC to see for yourself! You wont regret it.

I went to school with the amazing owner. I’ve watched her work hard and build such a creative, artistic business. I bought a hat from her at the start of cold season and she processed and shipped the order so fast! I love my beanie and all of her designs, I can’t wait to purchase more from such an awesome small business!!

I love this place! Jessa is the sweetest and most creative person I’ve ever met. Her quality of work is AMAZING! She thinks outside the box and is not scared to take risks with her designs. Professional, prompt & very detailed. I envy her artistic skills.

Used this company for Christmas shirts for my dad and brother. The seller was amazing and came up with wonderful designs based on my ideas. My dad and brother wear the t-shirts ALL the time! Excellent service. Wonderful Business.

Outstanding company with an outstanding owner! Super friendly vibes and amazing content! Jessa is a lovey artist and business owner. Before covid wed have the most amazing paint & sip night with the friendliest women ever! their clothes are HIGH QUALITY!! Ive never bought a shirt that I can still wear YEARS later that looks BRAND NEW! This business along side of others has truly made downtown EC such an amazing place! I wish nothing but growth and expansion for this company!

Jessa at Dear Alchemy is an amazing artist. Jessa literally can do ANYTHING & EVERYTHING! Give her and idea of what you want and she will make it happen. Great prices, friendly customer service and did I mention she his hilarious? Love Dear Alchemy!!!

Jessa produced the logo and screen printed the T-shirt’s for my husband’s company. She was patient in listening to his requests and was able to make them into what he was looking for. We only use Dear Alchemy for our t-shirt needs. We’ve also bought some of her other designs that our daughters absolutely love! Highly recommend!!!

Jessa is an amazing artist. She has done a few company logos for me. We love them! She knew exactly what we were thinking and did an awesome job. Very timely completion and delivery. 10/10 recommend working with Dear Alchemy!!

Jessa has been a long time best friend of my sisters, which led me to purchase from her brand. She’s an amazing woman, not surprised she’s also an amazing business owner and artist. I’ve purchased several items of clothing from her. Always quick to respond, if there was ever a shipping issue, she responded and fixed immediately. I know exactly who to go to when i want unique clothing. Thanks you jessa for your business! My family loves it and you!

I love Dear Alchemy so much her designs are authentic and created with passion! I’ve ordered from D.A. twice on short notice and every time Jess delivers an amazing product with great quality! She is the absolute best and will even work with you if you don’t know what you’re looking for! By far the best hands down, I like to call D.A. The Chic-Fil-A of retail.

Jessica is an amazing artist and will go above and beyond to make sure you are satisfied with your order. She is very creative and can do just about anything from t shirts to pet portraits. She also has amazing paint parties. Highly recommend!

Jessa cultivates a beautiful, thought-provoking, and welcoming atmosphere at Dear Alchemy! I’ve gotten great socks, shirts, and more from her shop. During the monthly ArtWalk, my friends and I love to come paint, enjoy snacks, and see work from local artists. Dear Alchemy is by far my favorite small business in Elizabeth City! There’s something here for everyone.

Talent. Pure talent! Jessa is an amazing artist. Ive been buying from Dear Alchemy for a while now but just recently moved & placed my first order from Alaska....it got here so quickly & packaged perfectly! 10/10 would recommend!

Jessa of Dear Alchemy is a fantastic business woman. She has designed two awesome logos for my photography studio. Great customer service and kind. I love all my products and Dear Alchemy products. Great quality and comfortable wear. I would highly recommend her and her business for custome work or for awesome clothing options

Jessa did a wonderful job on our shirt and hoddie order. And her artwork on our two designs is wonderful. I kept changing my mind on different things in our designs but she never disappointed. She made sure what I wanted was in the designs and they turned out amazing. She also did sketches of my two daughters and they turned out so cute.

The owner is very sweet and responds in a timely manner. The artwork/designs are unique and amazing. The shirt I order was everything I was looking for. If you’re looking for quality designs that are affordable, Dear Alchemy is your go to!

Love doing business here, they make you feel right at home and are always so pleasant to work with. The quality of their work is PERFECT and always right on time. Thanks for all you do :)

This is an amazing place full of creativity. I love the personalization that I can get from this cute little shop. The owner is amazing and takes such pride in her work that the results come out phenomenal. I can’t wait to continue using this business and to tell all my friends to place an order. Wonderful place, wonderful owner Jessa, and wonderful atmosphere!!!

Jessa is seriously the sweetest! Her art work doesn’t compare to anyone else’s! Super unique designs, and will get you exactly what you want/need! I hate seeing all of the negative reviews, because I can honestly say that you will have no problem ordering from this company and will be completely satisfied! :) Highly recommend!!

Never had clothes that fit so perfectly on my curvy body! Finally a place that has style and inclusive to all sizes!! The owner Jessica is such a ray of sunshine and her style herself is awesome! Wish I lived closer so I could be in the store more often. :)

Absolutely love this place! Jessa is such a talented and kind person. Whenever I would go in to shop or to browse she was so helpful. If you ever need an awesome piece of art or a cool outfit she is your girl!

I have known Jessa for many years. I was in need of a unique gift for my husband and contacted her immediately. Jessa suggested her painting of pets, as she knows the bond between a man and his dog. I sent her a picture and the turn around time was fantastic and quality even better. Thank you Jessa for helping a girl out.

Jessa is an amazing, multi-talented artist and creator. Her designs are truly one of a kind and any work done by her is unparalleled. Some reviews mention timeliness as a downside - Dear Alchemy is, for the most part, a one-woman show. It’s important to remember that we can’t expect Amazon timelines from a small, local vendor. She’s always communicative and you can be sure in the quality of product that you receive.She’s had an incredible impact on Elizabeth City and the people she’s worked with. You would really be doing a disservice to yourself by NOT shopping Dear Alchemy.

Dear Alchemy has beautiful, original designs with so many options. Last Christmas I did all my shopping in one stop at Dear Alchemy for my friends. The owner is kind and knowledgeable and customer service is a priority for her. Would recommend to everyone!! There is something for every style.

I have purchased from this business a few times and have always had a great experience! Jess is very kind and willing to go the extra mile to help get her clients what they want. One of the most creative businesses Elizabeth City has to offer!

My friend and I had an amazing experience here painting a few pictures. Jessa was so encouraging and complimented our pictures after we were done. We have always had great experiences with this company and Id recommend it to anyone!

The owner of this company met my son in 2019. Unfortunately, he committed suicide last year. I never met the owner before but she took it upon herself to draw a picture of him, create a banner for people to sign, and made T-shirts. I have yet to meet her. I can’t bring myself to go pick up his banner. I’m crying simply typing this review. The owner hasn’t pressured me or rushed me to do anything. I’m beyond thankful for everything this company did for my family in our time of grief. Highly recommend doing business here.

Love love love going to Dear Alchemy! Jessa is such a doll! Her paint nights are amazing and she always makes sure that we have what we need! She’s very friendly and I definitely will continue to use her business!

I dealt with Jessa before she even had her store. She was on time with everything h I ordered from her. She was also super sweet and very thoughtful in her designs for me. Nothing got changed without my approval. I recommend her business to everyone I know. Can’t wait to see her and her business grow!

Bought a Halloween special hoodie from this place and it came out amazing. Color was so bright and print is perfect and after many wears it still looks brand new. The owner is such a sweet girl and an amazing artist 10/10 recommend

Jessa is nothing short of talented! Everything I’ve ever received from Dear Alchemy has been amazing quality, tshirts & art work. She took my ideas for my business logo & ran with them and it’s more than what I expected. This local business has really brought brightness to downtown Elizabeth City.

Jessa has helped bring life back to our little community. She is very talented and able to complete any task presented to her. I recommend this business for all of your advertising, personal and business needs.

Dear Alchemy does amazing work in a timely fashion. We also appreciate the owners artistic talent and the time that she dedicates to paint murals around our town to beautify it. Would recommend Dear Alchemy!

Jessa, the owner is the most incredible person I’ve met. During her hardest times she’s still been openly available to do any commissions/t shirt prints etc. she’s worked so hard for this business and every bit of blood sweat and tears are seen through the incredible shop she has. It’s rare to find such genuine people but she’s one of them without doubt. I will always support and shop with her bevahse of her as a person and how much quality all her art is. 5 stars arent enough she deserves so much more

I have ordered tons of T-shirt’s from them for my business and they do an amazing job! Worked with me on design ideas and had beautiful shirts and hoodies that not only last but still look great! There prices are amazing too!

None of me or my wifes orders have ever been ready on time. Poor business etiquette, a refund was never given, and our items were not received in time for the intended event. When we did receive them, they were not to our liking. The paintings looked as if they were thrown together with zero attention to detail. All the businesses positive reviews are not genuine as the owner has bribed people with merchandise to leave them. DO NOT BUY FROM THIS COMPANY.

I am in the process of having my second pet portrait made from dear alchemy! Jessa has been super sweet and went above and beyond to make sure the portraits were perfect! 10/10 highly recommend!!!

I purchased my husband the lime green Beetle juice shirt and he 💗loveeeees it! He wears it to work twice a week and the roofing crew is now asking for one😂. I discovered dear alchemy through my daughter Ashley Alexander she has so many shirts from you! I try to steal them but no chance😂 I’m always waiting to see “what’s next”💚

Ive purchased a few very nice t-shirts. She has lots of nice products. A very friendly local business that I will continue to support.

My husband and I had a design made for his business. Jessa was great. We loved the design and she got back to us quickly. Definitely recommend.

Sweet owner and her designs are SO amazing! If you like odds and ends or just something unique and different stop by! Some of this reviews with low ratings are fake and are people being petty.

Jessa made an amazing portrait based off of a picture of my mom and grandfather; my grandpa died from glioblastoma on February 5th 2020 and this portrait was absolutely perfect for my mom for her first fathers day without her daddy. I highly recommend using Dear Alchemy for all of your printing and art needs. Amazing customer service; homegrown business. This town is better for having Jessa and Dear Alchemy♥️

Coolest store in Elizabeth City! Very cute and unique clothing. The owner is absolutely amazing, I couldn’t have been happier with my experiences!!

Love, love, love her confidence, style, and unique designs! Ordered a sweatshirt for Halloween and received it in a very timely manner! Very well quality for a decent price! Thanks so much!!

I have brought several t-shirts, sweatshirts and hats from Dear Alchemy. Always top-notch.Had granddaughter’s birthday party there and it was reasonable and friendly.Planning on having it there again.

This company has allegedly committed insurance fraud on several occasions in their personal lives. They take extremely long to get orders back to customers. Missing important holidays and things that we had our orders planned for. They are always in the public spotlight for their drama in their personal lives. The owner herself chooses to remain in this negative spotlight. I would never recommend this company to friends or family. Severe lack of professionalism.

Jessa is the sweetest! Such a nice laid back environment. I had a paint session there with a friend and she had lots of paints and the canvas was premade and awesome! Definitely gunna come back! ❤️

I purchased a gorgeous mermaid momma tank last summer. Excellent customer service and quick turnaround time. Will be making more purchases in the future!

Dear alchemy is cool spot. She always encouraged anyone doing art. Will design anything you need with an added flair to it.

Ownership is awesome. Super helpful and very passionate about product quality. Would recommend over and over if I could!

I did a bulk order of shirts for my employees, she figured up the design for me the same day I contacted her and had all of my shirts to me at the end of that same week, very prompt and professional. Will continue to use for my business! Not to mention I really love the personal Dear Alchemy collection! 10/10 *chefs kiss*

Awesome owner! Her location is convenient and is so beautiful and unique. Her designs are beautiful and great quality! :)

Jessa is an amazing person. Very business oriented and On time deliveries. Ten out of ten recommend.

Ordered a pet portrait and the detail was amazing. Truly captured the fluffiness of a Pomeranian. Very good work.

Ordered some paintings a while ago as a Christmas gift and my folks LOVED them. Will definitely be ordering again!

Owner Jessa is a phenomenal artist with limitless creativity and drive! It has been beautiful to watch her grow her business.

Love Jessa and her work she’s amazing at what she does. Thank you so much for sharing a little part of you with the world.

I dont think that asking for good reviews on facebook and blaming other people for expressing their somewhat negative opinions of your business is a good way to go about things. Owner is far too involved in drama and brings her relationship problems into her business and it seems to have affected the level of customer service. Dont post your entire life on Facebook if you dont want the opinions of others.

Jessa is knowledgeable, sweet, and her work is very unique! If you need something done, she can most likely help you out, and if she can’t, she will be upfront and honest with you.

Great place to be very welcoming and Jessa does amazing things not only for the customers but also for the community ❤️

Jessicas art work is amazing ... Shes very friendly and creative .. I got a games of thrones shirt she made and love it ..she was very professional and kindI always look forward to see what creative thing she comes up with next from shirts to her other art work

Jessa is super sweet and easy to work with! I love her unique designs and her artwork is out of this world!

Dear Alchemy has been my screenprinter since I started my business. As I’ve grown, I wouldn’t want anyone else to grow with me. Everything is always printed to perfection and whatever crazy ideas I come up with, they make it happen! Highly recommend!

Love the artwork collaborations they do with all of the local businesses in Elizabeth City. Got a lot of great stickers and patches from them that they or a local artist has designed.

Excellent customer service, Excellent products. Jessa is amazing at what she does and it clearly shows through her work.

Amazing work. Jessa is extremely talented and I love my girl gang shirt!

Bought a hocus pocus pullover for Halloween and absolutely love it! Great design and very original!! Will order again

Great shop! With love from the Julius Star team!

Amazing & unique art! Jessa made an amazing picture of my dads chihuahua in a sailor hat for his birthday!

LOVE Dear Alchemy and LOVE watching Jessa create! This company is full of heart and creativity and an amazing business woman!

The owner is so full of creativity and talent. Original, unique design and quality product!

Definitely always happy with all my orders... and jessa can draw like no other... her designs are out of this world!!

We love Jessa and the work she does. She’s truly amazing!

The quality is the absolute best! Wouldn’t have a graphic tee made anywhere else.

The owner is the sweetest, very creative, & has a passion for people ❤ Definitely recommend shopping here!

Timely. Passionate. Great quality. Would highly recommend.

Jessa is very passionate about her work! Her designs are amazing

Y’all this girl is amazing at what she does let her get y’all’s business

Amazingly talented and super professional! Don’t pass up this artist.

Marvelous space! Had a sip and paint for my cousins birthday, and I will definitely come again! Nice custom made jewelry and other trinkets. If you havent been, I suggest you stop by!

Jessa is an amazing artist, she is so very kind and a joy to do business with. She brightens up this otherwise, sleepy little city.

Jessa does an amazing job with her artwork and her shop is really nice 🙂

Jessa is amazing! Her work never disappoints :)

Ive purchased several things from Jessa at Dear Alchemy. She is quick to respond to any questions or concerns you may have.

Tried to place an order, but never got a response. Turns out that her time on city gossip is more important than customer service.

Jessa took me on as an intern in the spring semester of 2020, before the world dwindled to chaos. Watching her handle her business and make deals with companies, not to mention watching her make her quality work!

Very creative and does amazing work!

Jessa is very talented and a joy to work with!

Awesome work and such an awesome person!

The community is better for this establishment.

Wonderful shop & such authentic creations!

Jessa is Amazing and very talented !

Great work, highly recommend!

Such an amazing and talented person
