How I Got Started
I want to share a little about me and my shop, but first I want to thank you for simply visiting it!
My name is Stephanie and I hail from Alabama. Birmingham to be exact, hence the name of my business. My husband and I got married in 2012 and had our first child, an adorable baby boy (who will often model my work), in August of 2014. Many people shared with us the struggles and joys of parenthood, but probably the most frequent advice we got was "you can't have enough burp cloths." Which, of course, we ignored...plus the burp cloths in the stores were just not cute and I didn't want to register for them. :)
After we had our little bundle a friend sent me some burp cloths (similar to the ones I make, but I won't name any names) and I LOVED them. They were way more absorbent than other ones I had and would do laundry often just to have them clean. When I went to a store and found out how much they retail for ($25 for two!!!!) I thought, "I can totally make those." I got started right away. I researched good quality materials, pulled out my unused sewing machine I got many Christmases ago, and got busy. I've since expanded into making other items, as seen in my shop, and hope to continue growing and learning new things.
I welcome any and all feedback. I'm still learning and since I'm a person, not a machine, my burp cloths may not be perfect, but I strive for it. If you have any issues with your items please let me know so I can make it right. I want you to be as happy with my product as you would be with the more expensive name-brand.
Thanks for visiting!
