PLEASED TO MEET YOU!

Luci Daum

Luci is the heart and hands behind Party in My Pants. She’s here every day cutting fabric, sewing at the machine, dreaming up new prototypes, and keeping things running behind the scenes. A lifelong maker, Luci started sewing at just three years old and has crafted everything from skunk costumes to wedding dresses with ease.

Frustrated by conventional menstrual products, she sat down at her sewing machine in the late ’90s and stitched up her very first cloth pads! After testing it herself and loving the results, she made more for friends and family, many still use Party in My Pants pads to this day! Luci is the creative force behind our designs, constantly refining and reimagining what reusable pads can be! 

Party In My Pants Studio

Our entire operation runs out of the old Wilmarth School building in Ashland, Wisconsin, a beautiful, slightly drafty brownstone built in the 1890s that served as a school for over a century. These days, it’s home to our studio, where we cut, sew, pack, and dream up everything we make. We love the character of the place, and we’re always touched when someone knocks on the door just to say, “I used to go to school here!”

Ashland (population 7,892) sits on the edge of Chequamegon Bay on Lake Superior, in the quiet forest of northern Wisconsin.

One of the best things about this big, old building? There’s plenty of space, and we love sharing it! We welcome volunteers and creatives to come stay, work, and collaborate with us. Whether you’re a maker, a thinker, an organizer, or just someone with fresh energy and ideas, we’re always excited to have new people around who want to help us grow. There’s room to spread out, dive into projects, and bring your vision to life. Send us an email at contact@partypantspads.com to get the convo started!

The school may be a little cold in the winter, but it’s full of warmth, history, and heart, and we’re proud to call it home!

How are cloth pads made?

Each reusable pad is constructed in several layers of interior, absorbent cotton, a waterproof nylon backing, a fun and flirty top layer of cotton or flannel and with unique arced wings along the side for the snap closure. This tried and true design ensures foolproof leak protection throughout your menstrual cycle. Thanks to this design we can confidently say that our reusable cotton pads are up to the task of a true menstrual pad, capable of handling the heaviest of periods, daily incontinence and discharge.

Why go through mountains of disposable pads when you can enjoy these fashionable (and durable) reusable pads time and time again? Our pads are even machine washable, making them a truly convenient option to replace those old fashioned disposable pads. After each use, simply throw your dirtied pad in the wash with everything else and prepare to be amazed!

The foundation of our reliable leak protection is our signature waterproof nylon backing. This waterproof nylon ensures that even if you soak through all the other layers of the pad, this last nylon barrier has your back, and you have a leak-free experience and peace of mind as you set off into the world. This extra security is a game changer in the cloth pad world and has set our pads apart from other reusable menstrual pads. Assembled above this waterproof backing are varying layers of birdseye cotton and organic, highly absorbent, fleece, the optimal materials for light flow, heavy flow, and everything in-between!
