Handmande Tutus by Cindy from West Roxbury

In the past Cindy owned a florist shop, now this mother of two designs bouquets of colorful tulle for little girls. These tutus are adorable and sweet for dress-up and play. We love these headbands and tutus when they are given at 1st birthday gifts, because they are perfect for photos and they look adorable on new walkers and professional crawlers.

Headbands by Casey

Roslindale resident and new mom Casey, loves all things  fashion and vintage. While being home with her baby girl she has found an artistic outlet in the design of dainty headbands.

Knitty Gritty of Roslndale

These locally handkitted newborn caps are sweet and green. The soft yarns are soy or organic cotton. Cute, soft, cozy, and local. How can you go wrong with picking up these hats as one of your newborn essentials.
