Announcement    COVID19 RELATED INFORMATION:

The Post Office is a bit nuts right now. I have had really good luck so far, other than a few random days of the mailman not showing up at all. The USPS has officially lengthened delivery timeframes, and unofficially we're hearing that it's pretty common for packages to skip scans, to be sent on a tour of the country, or to show up a week or two later than expected. Or sometimes 6 or 8 weeks later. The postal system is completely out of my hands. Typically, a package is considered lost if there's no movement for 20 days, but the USPS has let me know that they are not declaring any packages lost during the COVID19 pandemic because things are just moving THAT slowly.

All that said, I am happy to help you if you have concerns about your delivery. Please just send me a message.

I have also suspended international deliveries at this time. I really didn't want to, but I've lost nearly $400 in (express) postage and product that's gone missing while being shipped internationally, and I just can't continue to throw money away like that. If you live outside the US and would like to risk it, please contact me. I am making exceptions - but I absolutely will NOT be refunding for lost packages until the post office starts declaring packages lost again.


Unique, must-have goodies for kids, parents, and special needs.

Feeding tube accessories, hospital gowns, weighted blankets, baby carrier accessories, cloth diapers, medical accessories, and more. Quality, Handmade, Affordable.

Please note, items listed as "free shipping" are free shipping for domestic orders only. International orders receive discounted shipping for these items. Items shipped with free shipping, if returned, have the shipping cost deducted from the refund amount.

Receive a 10% off coupon good on your next order when you join our mailing list. Sign up here: http://wallypop.net/maillist1

Some of our custom made items (primarily hospital gowns) can be requested as a rush. There may be a fee for this service. Please contact us with size, fabric desired, deadline, and shipping location and we'll let you know if we can accommodate.

We have a sister shop, Blvd Designs Blankets (etsy.com/shop/blvddesignsblankets) where we will move all of our weighted blankets in September! Both shops are owned by the same person, Sarah Reid.

We make items that make your life better!

Like so many other WAHM-owned businesses, Boulevard Designs started because I wanted to stay home with my kids. When my employer declined to let me work from home, I quit my job and I turned what had been a casual hobby into a thriving business. I opened Wallypop, which is my main business. A few years later, I decided to open up an Etsy shop, as well.

At Wallypop/Boulevard Designs, we make products that make your life better! We started out with baby carriers that are comfortable and affordable and great-fitting cloth diapers that don't let you down.

After my youngest was born with kidney failure, I started making for others all the fun, helpful items I was designing for our own use. These products let you sleep more at night, help your children be more accepting of their medical devices, protect your privacy when in public, and improve your life in ways you didn't even know you needed!

Frequently asked questions
What are the tags with writing on some of your products?

Over ten years ago, the US Congress passed the CPSIA law, which includes many consumer protections, particularly for children's products. On products that fit CPSIA's definition of a children's product, we include labels with cohort, tracking, and date information as required by law. (Tracking means that I can track the materials used in the item back to the supplier and date purchased from the supplier, not that it's tracked after the sale.)

Are you buying children's products without this information? That's not only illegal, but potentially dangerous. Buy your children's products only from sellers who are compliant with US Safety laws.

Do you make masks to protect from germs?

I do not. After extensive research, I came to the conclusion that regular fabric simply does not provide the protection from germs that people want. Further, I would not feel right about selling a product that I wasn't certain would work well - and I'm certain that a face mask made from two or three layers of regular fabric absolutely wouldn't work well. I recommend buying one of the major brands of reusable masks - these masks have been tested against industry or government standards for filtering micro particles, and can promise you the protection you need.
