etsy scout: bitty bambu

dahlia * abstract wave

during my elementary days, i was absolutely content with my almost everyday pairing of a snoopy tee and dove shorts (not the same ones, mind you, my stock ran deep in both departments). mr. freud would make the obvious connection that my early rejection of being dolled up was due to having a mom who had a career in fashion, but bitty bambu's appliquéd offerings just may have tempted me to upgrade a few threads.

taryn, the kula mom-turned-designer behind the label, often translates her background in landscape architecture into cheerful petals and cute garden inhabitants along with whimsical ocean discoveries to the delight of keiki. each design features pieces of fabric cut by hand then assembled and sewn into a playful creation perfect for school days and outdoor adventures.

wee wearables like tops and dresses are on the way while adorable burp cloths and pillow cases round out the current collection. custom designs are also welcome and typically require a week's turnaround depending on the supplies on hand. and, happy news, taryn plans to offer more organic options in the future.

the price tag is reasonable (averaging $20 a tee) considering the handmade nature of each design, and since most pieces are made to order can be adjusted to fit babies, toddlers and younger keiki (up to size 7).

Wow! These designs are so unique and beautiful. I wish I had little children to dress up in these adorable
shirts. Thank you for featuring this artist.
