If your workplace insists on solid colored scrubs, there’s still a way to make your uniform collection more stylish and fun.

With just a few simple appliqués (for just a few dollars!) on your scrubs and accessories, you’ll be wearing scrubs that are uniquely yours.

From sports team logos to cartoon characters, there’s a wide array of iron-on patches for every personality. There’s no need to know how to sew. Just follow the directions on the package and iron them onto your uniform in minutes.

Tip: Use them on solid-color uniforms so the patches will stand out.

Animal patches

If you’re a fan of animals, this patch available at appliquebuffet.com will be right up your alley. I couldn’t resist this bunny patch. It’s playful, yet it has beautiful colorful stitching. This would be great on the upper front of your scrub top.
