March Meet The Maker Day #5
⭐️ CLOSE UP ⭐️ Here is a lovely close up of my Baby Days products. I absolutely love the binding on the neck and cuffs of this baby top. This is my beautiful baby model Charlie. They are the perfect little bundle at making my baby clothes look so comfy. But there’s something about Charlie...has anyone noticed before? You maybe able to spot it on this close up 🧐Or you may not. Anyone notice that Charlie doesn’t seem to get any bigger 🤔 Charlie is in fact, not a real baby 😲 I know, it’s hard to believe isn’t it...

⭐️ BRANDING ⭐️ • For those of you who have followed me for a while now, you will know that last year I re-branded to my rainbow drop. I loved my old rose but felt quite disconnected from it.

It’s my hands that do all the work of probably somewhere around 7 people. Cutting, placing, sewing, trimming, turning, topstitching, pressing, applying poppers 😅 And that’s just constructing the pads. Once the pads are constructed there’s pictures to take, editing to do, website listing, wrapping the packages. The list goes on and on and on 🤣 • It’s hard, tiring work for my little hands and...

⭐️ STORY ⭐️ So I thought this year I would join in with #MarchMeetTheMaker So here goes, here’s my little story. • I’ve always been creative really. Art was the only the class that really engaged my interest at school. Although I went to college to do art, it never really worked for me and I ended up moving around a few courses. I actually started a mechanics apprenticeship but left college with a child care and education certificate. Yet I fell into retail management as an adult member of the work force. • I had been using reusables since the...
