iKippahs highlights the personalized burlap yarmulke as handcrafted accessories gain event popularity
Oct 15, 2026
iKippahs, a Brooklyn-founded maker of fashion-forward yarmulkes, discusses how the Personalized Burlap Yarmulke reflects rising interest in handcrafted, customized keepsakes for weddings, milestone celebrations and community events.
New York, United States, October 15, 2026 -- NEW YORK, NY — iKippahs, a yarmulke retailer founded by Brooklyn residents Sarale and Dina Seewald, is highlighting the Personalized Burlap Yarmulke as an example of the growing interest in handcrafted, customized accessories for weddings, bar mitzvahs, school events and congregational gatherings. The founders recently discussed how event hosts increasingly look for items that carry a personal message and remain useful after the occasion ends.
The shift reflects a wider pattern in the events and gifts sector, where hosts have moved toward keepsakes tied to a specific date, family, or celebration. Industry observers have described the trend as part of a broader preference for items with individual character over mass-produced favors. No single statistic is cited here, but retailers across the wedding and celebration category have reported steady interest in personalization options such as printed names, dates, and custom colors.
The Personalized Burlap Yarmulke is made from a natural woven fabric that the company offers in navy, black, and light gray. Customers can request custom text or designs so that the head covering carries the name of the celebrant, the date of the event, or a short message chosen by the host. Burlap has a textured, rustic finish that suits outdoor ceremonies, barn-style venues and other informal settings.
iKippahs accepts bulk orders for events, schools and synagogues, and it produces its yarmulkes in a range of materials that includes velvet, linen, cotton, denim, leather and suede. The company offers both six-panel and rimless constructions, along with reversible styles. Since its launch in 2014, the business has expanded its catalog to include solid colors, plaids, educational themes, seasonal designs, and patterns for children.
“Families want something their guests can hold on to, and a personalized piece gives the event a lasting reminder,” said the Co-Founder of iKippahs. “The burlap style has drawn steady interest because the fabric feels natural and the customization lets each celebration look distinct.”

Chris Waller admits ‘it looks a tough ask’ to beat champion Ka Ying Rising in The Everest
Chris Waller concedes “it looks a tough ask” to beat Ka Ying Rising as Sydney’s leading trainer bids to dethrone the Hong Kong champion with a dual-pronged assault on Saturday’s Group One The Everest (1,200m) at Randwick. New Zealand-born Waller will saddle top sprinter Joliestar and Angel Capital in the A$20 million (HK$109.87 million) feature, but he rates Ka Ying Rising as clearly the horse to beat despite the prospect of an unsuitable wet track. A sensational winner of 21 consecutive races,...
South Korean FA condemns ‘personal attacks, criticism’ of players as attempt to sow discord
South Korea’s football association has told fans to stop “excessive personal attacks”, warning of the “psychological burden” they could inflict on national team players in the crosshairs since their World Cup flop. Hong Myung-bo quit as coach after the team failed to advance past the group stage in North America, and Spanish interim manager Robert Moreno is awaiting word on a possible extension. With the Asian Cup scheduled to take place in January in Saudi Arabia, the national side are engulfed...
Andrea Atzeni looking to continue early-season momentum with several Happy Valley chances
It has been a busy start to the season for Andrea Atzeni and he is looking to continue some strong early momentum with the likes of Wukong Jewellery, Californiatotality and Red Brick Warrior at Happy Valley on Wednesday night. The Sardinian has ridden seven winners so far this season from 84 rides, the same number of mounts as champion jockey Zac Purton, and he is grateful for the support as looks to consolidate last season’s career-best tally of 63 winners. “The support is coming in and has...
Hong Kong horse racing superstar Vincent Ho’s fightback from brain bleed, world-class quest
Explaining his aversion to socialising, Vincent Ho Chak-yiu was suitably succinct. “When I have to talk, it’s a lot of effort,” he told the South China Morning Post. “Harder than riding a horse, for sure.” It is logical that one of Hong Kong’s greatest jockeys feels most contented on horseback. When Ho begins speaking, though, the personal takes and tales roll off his tongue. He relives the day in New Zealand that he “felt completely dead” after riding 39 horses, explains how he bounced back...

Chinese Basketball Association president Guo Zhenming addressed the national team’s struggles on Monday afternoon, warning that the domestic league had reached a critical juncture in its bid to improve standards in the country.

Hong Kong Premier League club suspend player over racially sensitive social media message
Tai Po have hauled Gabriel Mesquita over the coals after he posted a racially sensitive message on social media, issuing the teenage midfielder with a formal written warning and indefinitely suspending him from first-team training and matches. Brazilian Mesquita, who joined the local Premier League club as a free agent this summer, aggressively bit back after a Threads user wrote “Gweilo will always be Gweilo” in response to the player posting an image of his Hong Kong identity card application...
Barrier 11 no concern for Ka Ying Rising but wet weather worries David Hayes ahead of The Everest
A wide draw in barrier 11 failed to dampen David Hayes’ enthusiasm with Ka Ying Rising, but the prospect of a wet track in Saturday’s Group One The Everest (1,200m) at Randwick is more of a concern for the champion trainer. Ka Ying Rising was dealt the second widest gate at Tuesday night’s barrier draw at Luna Park on the Sydney Harbour, but Hayes was looking at the positives as his superstar sprinter bids to become the first horse to win the prized race from barrier 11. “I know Zac [Purton]...

Fifa president Infantino could pull off ‘Houdini’ act as critics struggle for candidate
Gianni Infantino could survive weeks of criticism and secure re-election as Fifa president in the absence of a heavy hitter to challenge him, observers have said. The 56-year-old Swiss has lost the support of many associations in his bid to be re-elected to a fourth and final term since he launched and then hastily shelved his plan to allow private investment into the World Cup. Infantino, though, does crucially retain his core support in Africa and South America. His Fifa Forward Enterprise...
Hong Kong athletics team face make-or-break period after 0 medals at Asian Games
There were many reasons for Hong Kong to celebrate the recent Aichi-Nagoya Asian Games. From the most golds won to bringing home a record-breaking number of medals, the city generally fared well at the multi-sport event.
