I too have been thinking about including something Bitcoin-related, as I've been toying with the idea of accepting BTC-only, but if, then I'd like to include it in a sly and roundabout way, and something more technical then just a "B"... 😉

I'm not a fan of including the Bitcoin logo into your brand. If you build a reputation as a high quality manufacturer and word gets around that you are Bitcoin only or you have deep discounts for Bitcoin payment that will be enough.
On the other hand if you are buying things with Fiat then it's better to accept Fiat first, convert to Bitcoin to protect your work value and then also give deep discounts to people who pay in Bitcoin. The deep discount saves you the hassle of buying Bitcoin for yourself or exchanging it and we all know it increases buying power for Fiat double or triple inflation values.
For instance, the bag is $50 USD or Euro equivalent but if you pay $24 in Bitcoin it's yours. This was you are signaling your preference and you also figure your prices double what you would want in Bitcoin.

If you want something more in your face you could have the needle and threaded stitching through bitcoin coin in front of the mountains.

That's way too much, I'd like to have it in there ever so subtle.

if u go bitcoin only, you will make very little revenue unless you sell bitcoin related things. Unfortunately, you will need Stripe or similar to capture most of your sales.

Why? I simply have to wrap it in a way that's easy, fast and professional to the buyer, maybe a neat invoice that can be paid from their bank account, and I earn BTC?

Because it's very hard to get people to spend their bitcoins.

Looks like spending and replacing isn't cool anymore... 🥺

Spend and replace is still cool, most "bitcoiners" just aren't as cool or haven't heard of it—yet. Still stuck in NGU mindset and don't realize it doesn't really matter what you spend when you can just replace it.
If you don't intend to live from this income, I would still recommend to go bitcoin-only. You drive adoption and it's way easier on your side.
I edited my comment after I researched the definition of "cheap people" haha (in case you saw it)

Nah, it's simply an honest effort to see if it pays off, and if it doesn't I still have my hobby.
No, I didn't see it 🥲

if they pay from their bank acct, then u r not really accepting btc, are you?:)

True, but I'm getting some off the market, thus it's a win for all of us in the end... 🥲
It's not fully thought through yet, though, I'm not at the stage of selling things yet.
