A good fit?

Today Alayna and I headed out to do some shopping and decided to stop into our local Mother & Child store. I have previously bought things from their boutique section where they have cute clothes, books and toys, and organic items that you wouldn't see in Target or Babies R Us. And today was no exception. Alayna got these adorable ladybug hair clips. And these even cuter shoes. While strolling around inside I came across their "handmade" corner and actually recognized some hair clips that I bought for Alayna on Etsy from MayaPapaya! Then while talking to the owner about my Etsy shop, Alayna's Closet, she gave me a business card for her daughter who also has an Etsy shop and a boutique in Boston called OakBoston. It's a small Etsy world!

So anyhow, the majority of their business in Mother & Child is people buying the used items. We went over the specifics of consigning my shirts with them - but unfortunately I don't think it would be a good fit. When I muster up the courage there are several other children's boutiques near me that I will approach and hopefully they would want to carry my designs.

Until then...
