A little about me...
My name is Brandi and I am a stay-at-home-mom to my little hip chick, Ella Rae. During the first year of her life, I became enthralled with the lives of children, their interests, and, of course, their fashion world. I would spend naptimes in front of the computer looking through children's boutiques on the web. After seeing hair clips my friend had made for her daughter, I was inspired. I thought, "Well, maybe I could make clips for Ella too!". Soon I would find myself knee-deep in ribbon, rhinestones, and hot glue! Thank you Susan, for being my inspiration. I never thought it would turn into a business until I saw the response from other people. I began selling to boutiques and everyone began asking if I had a web site.
So, after extensive research and development, My Hip Chick was created. And, before I knew it, I became a business owner. Something that I never knew I wanted or was even capable of doing until Ella arrived. I couldn't be more thrilled. And, fulfilling my passion with arts and crafts is just an added bonus. Not too mention adding a little bling to another child's life is so much fun!
My Hip Chick aprons began when Ella started dabbling into the arts and crafts world of a toddler, aka: markers! I began looking around for an apron for her, and the only ones I could find screamed "country and old lady", two things I certainly am not into. So, after coaxing my mother into being my seamstress, we started creating aprons. After the first one, we were convinced they would be a hit. And, with the world of cooking and entertaining becoming so widely popular, I feel that everyone deserves to look their best while preparing a meal.
Thank you to all who have helped with my research, my web site, and keeping my sanity through this whole process. I could not have done it without you! |
