Candice is a native Utahn, born in Salt Lake City raised, in the Clearfield, Ogden, area. Canidce is a mother, partner and fierce feminist who found her love for making art in the form of quasi vintage underclothing about 9 years ago. After only a short time of being in business Candice went viral with her ‘Golden Girls’ panties. Sales went through the roof…UNTIL Betty white filed a cease and desist order ultimately breaking up the group (You can still purchase the other 3 golden girls on her website) Each one was designed with the particular character in mind.

The Dorothy design is black a nod to her characters dark side.

The Blanche who is Candice’s favorite golden girl, sums up Candice’s view “Life’s short, get fucked”.  You will notice the Blanche is crotchless, in true Blanche style.

Candice has had several unfortunate and unforeseen challenges thrown her way the past few years; her sister passed way followed by her mother. Covid threw a wrench in the business with home schooling, and all the garbage that came along with the Covid shutdowns, quarantines, etc. Candice is a one woman show who puts family first and the support of her kids and husband at the front of everything she does.

Candice is however on a new path to bring Bullets and Bees back into the mainstream and she has begun creating new items again. Each item Candice produces is hand made, and made to fit the person ordering them. Custom orders are available as well as some of the standards she has in stock. Here are a few of our favorites.
