A+K is a Dutch based handmade label.
You can find baby & kids items made with the highest quality of fabrics and unique and fun sewn products.
A+K designs, creates and ships everything from it's own little studio.
Handmade in The Netherlands with an American and Dutch touch.
Every product is made in my home studio in Rotterdam City, and with every purchase you not only help support local business, but also the busy life I have of being a working stay at home mum and raising my 2 children; the very reason I started this business back in The USA in 2014.
I like to make creations that are the same as applesauce and/or ketchup is to our children's favorite addition to food.
You know, that little extra flavor that just makes it right to go for!
You will find toys, room decoration, unique diaper clutches (the Dutch way), crowns in all sorts of colors, prints and fabrics, clothes, pretend play and real play items, party items and so on.
New designed items will be listed every week on A+K.
Me and my family travel a lot and during those trips I always take some time to visit fabric stores. These fabrics I use to make unique handmade pieces.
You will find handmade pieces with fabrics from the whole world in this shop.
In the summer of 2016 me and my family moved to The Netherlands and so did A+K.
It is so nice to welcome you from The Netherlands.
Please follow us on instagram @applesauceandketchup to see what we are working on, what just has been finished, how life looks like in NL, what my family is doing and how this whole world is inspiring me.
If you have any questions about custom made items or wholesale possibilities, please convo me and hopefully we can create something new and unique together!!

5 out of 5 starsSecond time ordering this lovely crown- this time for my younger daughter. She’s easily irritated by scratchy fabrics so this is perfect- nice and soft and suitable for any head size 👌🏼

motherhood turned me into a creator & maker of all kind of things kids favorite
In search of simple, stylish & unique products for my 2 kids, I set about creating and making my own products for them.
I am originally from The Netherlands and moved to The USA when I was 35 weeks pregnant of my first child.
Both of my kids were born in the USA.
Sometimes I missed shopping at my favorite Dutch stores, using the products I grew up with and the Dutch culture. These are some of the reasons I started to make items myself.
From here, Applesauce & Ketchup was born. the name Applesauce & Ketchup because my oldest child (picky as he is) likes to eat whatever better with Applesauce or Ketchup. And probably a lot of kids do too.
At this moment I am a stay at home mom. Before I became a mom I was a Product Manager in the shoes business for an international retail organization. My educational background is fashion management and traditional shoemaking.
I am always creating things in my mind and have a big interest in all kinds of things that inspire me. Most of the inspiration for the things I make I get from my 2 kids who are young and have a big interest and great imaginations.
I love to create and make the special things or needs in their little lives.
Like decorations for a birthday party or bibs that look adorable and are functional, items to play with, dress up clothes, teepee tents for hide and seek, bedding for great dreams about rocket ships and race cars.
But also products that are well known in Europe and not so well known in the USA, like the diaper clutches that make moms lives so much easier!.
Everything is handmade by me, Bauke, alone and made by using durable materials. The simplistic designs ensure pieces will become much loved items that can be passed on from one child to the next.
If you would like to see projects I am working on and stay tuned about specials I have, please have a look at my Instagram page:

Shop policies
In my shop you will find creations I made inspired by my kids and motherhood.
I love to create things that kids love.
Products that will fill their hearts with joy, puts a smile on their face and gives the many hours to play.
From my home, in the city of Rotterdam, The Netherlands, I love to create unique items.
All the products are designed and created by me and carefully handmade.
The garments used in my products are chosen with the greatest love and care for beautiful and unique fabrics.
Everywhere I travel, I shop for fabrics. This is one of the reasons you will find unique pieces in my shop
TESTED
All the designs in my shop have been tested and made for my own family.
I have used the diaper clutch for 3 years, my son loves his pillow cases in favorite figures, no birthday party goes without handmade banners, our babydolls sleep as cosy as my kids do and so the story continues....
So, everything has been tested in home and still most of the items are in use in my own family, like the pillows, the crowns, banners and blouses..
Items that have passed our test and are great in use and quality will be listed in this store and it will be very possible you will find other color combinations or fabric combinations of that item.
CUSTOM MADE
Because of the reason I like to keep my items unique, I do not buy a bulk of the same fabrics to make exactly the same product over and over again in the same fabric and color combination. I love to variate and combine colors and prints.
I love to make CUSTOM REQUESTS
