Creating Classy Content, you tell me!

Hello again...

So I'm trying to think about what content I want to have for this blog. I want it to be interesting, enjoyable and useful to you. I want to have a blog for me and for my business, but I want to be about stuff you want actually want to read.

I stopped to think logically for a second and realized that the best way to do that would be to ask! I came up with a list to sort of give you an idea of where I think I want to go, but if no one wants to hear about it, its out! So please offer suggestions, tell me if I came up with idiotic ideas, and let me know if you have any connections or experts you know of in the areas of #1 and 2 that might be fun to have featured. I would love to hear what you have to say, because I want it to be good stuff!

1. Art and Artisan Goods ~I would like to feature other artists and makers out there and what they are up to. For example, I just found this awesome lady on etsy who is making hats for toddlers similar to my pointy hood hat that I LOVE and I would love to feature her and her products here. Sort of to be a source for all things classy and infant-preschool related.

2. Mom stuff ~This would be stuff like, home remedies, craft ideas, parenting philosophies, toddler yoga, is it possible?

3. Personal Stories ~poop stories, potty training, cooking blunders, grocery store tantrums, life as it happens to us.

4. Behind the scenes ~more focused on my stuff. shoe making, sewing machine pics, basically the stuff as it is being created.

5. Tutorials? How to leather follow alongs for anyone wanting to try their hand at making something out of leather.

If any of this sounds interesting to you, then please let me know in the comments, or let me know about your specific ideas and I can see what I can do. Thanks!

Classy Baby Who?

I wanted to make a short little ditty about the makings of Classy Baby and what my goals are for the company.

A bit about me first if you don't mind. I'm Amy, co-owner with my husband of Classy Baby Co. I love making things, especially out of fabrics, leather, and sewing related crafts. I have always dreamed that maybe, some day, I could make things that were magical, intriguing, and good enough that other people would want to buy from me.

I remember setting up a "store" and making do-dads out of paper and tape with my brother as a child and making my mom come and "shop" at our store. I started working with leather when I was 10 years old. My first project was a pair of soft sole moccasins. I wore them until they had holes.

My favorite job ever was when I worked for the Costume Shop at Dordt College getting to create garments for theater. There is something so exciting about creating something with my own two hands.

When I had my daughter, I was disappointed by the quality of the selection of footwear, and, well, everything the big box stores had for children. So I started making things for her myself. Cute things, comfortable things, but most importantly, quality items. Stuff she could be proud of, won't wear out right away, and stuff she could feel grown up in. Things she could use as she grows big and strong and clever and brave and kind.

I like to think there are other folks out there who want the same.  I hope you enjoy my store Classy Baby Co, and can find some quality baby and toddler items that can suit your own child's desire to be big, strong, clever, brave, and kind.
