Coming soon...

As a young girl... I always loved to sew... Home ec... was my favorite class and I can still recall having a hard time sticking to the specific cirriculum as I dreamed of making my own creations.   And as an adult, it has once again become my passion... my daughter is my inspiration.  I try to create and recreate things I know she would love to wear.  In a nutshell, its all about ruffles, frills, Dora, and Princess.  If it's pink or purple she loves it.  If it twirls she won't hesitate to put it on.  I have been working on some pretty stinkin cute creations which I will be posting shortly... Some very cute Spring Summer both new, and upcycled recreations..... so stay tuned...


Here is a sneak peak at the themes I've incorporated...

Upcycling...Environmental Movement...

What is Upcycling?
Upcycling is the process of converting waste materials or useless products into new materials or products of better quality or a higher environmental value.
Upcycled clothing represents a new trend promoted by those interested in leading a more sustainable and environmentally friendly lifestyle. It is a way of reusing old clothes through new and unique creations.
At Little Miss MaddiMoo Boutique we are committed to offering our customers the choice to contribute to maintaining a sustainable environment by providing a large array of upcycled children's clothing items.
We are really passionate about this new fashion trend and what could be more rewarding than transforming old, dull clothes into new, fashionable ones? When we create our items, we work hard to create the most unique and beautiful items.   Mixing different fabrics, fibers, and colors, to create a unique item especially made for our buyers.
Because more people are growing concerned with the climate change and prefer eco-friendly products,  the popularity of upcycled clothes is increasing as we speak.
We are busy making new creations everyday, though if you have something in mind feel free to contact us and we will do our best to customize one of our upcylced creations just for you!

Sustainable Creations... Upcycling Style!

My newest creations... I have always adored the pillowcase creation so decided to create a few of my own!  I started with this first one, which is a combination of New and Old... which I have recently discovered is referred to as 'Upcycling'.  I don't know why it took so long for me to come across this but what an amazing concept!  For those of you not familiar with this term, it is a very eco friendly movement to reduce the amount of waste in the world, transforming old, less desirable items, into new and fabulous ones!  I LOVE this concept and fits perfectly into what I have been doing!  I like to call it sustainable sewing!  I made this super cute Winnie the Pooh pillowcase dress then paired it with a pair of upcycled Old Navy Pants!  Super cute set.  Then I decided to make a few of my very own creations, starting from scratch.  Below you will see 3 very cute Pillowcase dresses, Princess theme, Bratz Girl theme, and last but not least, the Tweetie Bird with beautiful satin trim detailing!  Did I mention I love to sew?
