Show & Tell : Dress Me Up
/About Dress Me Up
Dress Me Up specializes in beautiful, organic toys for young children that are gentle and safe, and always art-inspired. They are a mama-made (not factory made) independent cottage industry located in Victoria BC, Canada. When you purchase from Dress Me Up, you are supporting their small company directly.
Their products are brought to life by owner, designer and creator Tressa Brotsky and her small team of craftswomen and mamas, all located in or near Victoria BC. Each organic soft toy, teether and baby linen is meticulously and responsibly handmade in small batches, ensuring confidence and loads of good, loving energy in every aspect of production.
My Thoughts:
I can't remember when I first discovered the Dress Me Up shop, but it has been on my radar for quite some time--one of those things I had stored away in my memory for the days when my next baby arrived, or when I needed a shower gift for someone special. I am always drawn to simple, classic baby toys and I love the "new take" that Dress Me Up puts on the classics. And it is purely icing on the cake that they are a small company, making handmade toys from organic and sustainable materials. After having the privilege of emailing back and forth with Tressa, I'm so happy I can share her amazing shop with all of you.
One of Tressa's Organic Cloth balls is sitting on the bookshelf in Birdy's room waiting for the days when her little hands are coordinated enough to grab and play with it. And I can pretty much guarantee that when the time is right, I'll be adding one of the Rabbit Rattles or Teething BonBons to her toy basket as well.
