PicKleTEL pickleball parodies VOLUME 2






If you are here you may have seen the short version video of PicKleTEL Volume 2 going around somewhere.

Here is the longer version to give you more of a taste of the tunes and following in the posts on my blog (just scroll back a few posts), you will find the full versions posted:





Ever since I started making pickleball parody REELs and short videos I've envisioned the K-Tel format  as a teaser video. It's how I grew up listening to music and I vividly recall watching the K-Tel commercials. My allowance money was just enough to buy a K-Tel album from the swap meet every once in a while.  I guess the nostalgia never left me and I still get the feels over it. Volume 1 was a pile of fun and I've just gotten deeper into pickleball and made more REELs since so here we are with Volume 2. I don't see an end. 

If I had more skill and videography skills and more than an iphone I'd do a better job of it all but I think  I get the point across so  I'm sticking with my role as creator.  Make the rough drafts up and share them out.  When things need a polish there is a time and place and people who love to do all that. 


Artists parodied in this video are as follows: 

Straight Down the Line:   Inspired by Neil Diamond's: Sweet Caroline

Pickleball Stars:  Inspired by Nickleback's: Rockstar

I Dinked the ball:   Inspired by Katy Perry's: I kissed a Girl

Pickleball ARTwear's first pop up tent!

So I recently set up my first booth at the BC Provincials and I couldn't be happier with the results. Well actually I'd be happier if I'd had more product with me, and with that I would have made more people happy.
Being my first booth I only arrived with a skeleton load of goodies and ran out of sizes quickly. A bit of this a bit of that, I wasn't sure so I took it easy when choosing samples. It was great to see what resonates with people and of course the real reason for going (showing people samples) was achieved. Customers got to see the items in person (my business is really online, custom order on demand)  touch it, feel it, check the sizes out. Now when people order they can be sure it's the right size. I'm glad to say I observed  reactions towards the many different designs and noted I am hitting a lot of pickleball nerves, in a very good way. 
Head to my facebook page @4theloveofpickleball  to find discount codes and  see photos shared of customers rocking their Pickleball  ARTwear. Find it all HERE




This amazing 100% wool (so lightweight and soft ) wrap is not available in my store any longer. It's a special custom order direct from the manufacturer: Yes that's a special edition of my artwork. :) 

Feel free to contact me directly for special orders.
