Kuti Babies is a new online store that specialises in making the very cute Kuticoons. Kuticoons are the creation of two mums, Tina & Kristi and they are a fantastic alternative to a traditional wrap. Hmmm I wonder, do they come in adult sizes they look so snuggley? I recently spent 5 minutes chatting to Tina and here is what she had to say:
What inspired you to start your business?
When having our babies at the hospital we put them in the cocoons and various Doctors, midwives and visitors commented saying how it was a fabulous idea. A few months after having our babies and finding we were still getting comments out and about, and the fact our babies were still using them, we thought we should do something about that and so we started Kuti Babies. We both love making them so it was a natural choice for us!
What was your first sale?
Our first sale was through EBay. We thought we would test the waters and we were really happy to find that people actually bought them. We received some brilliant feedback on the cocoon . We were so happy!
What is your biggest seller?
The Cocoons are our best item, they are unique, practical, comfy and fashionable!
What item couldn’t you live without?
These days it would be my sewing machine and my knitting tools for the cocoons. This is how I relax at night, making these beautiful cocoons, I love seeing the end product.
What is on your Christmas wish list this year?
All I want this year is to see my children happy and healthy!… maybe a few scrapbooking items kicked in would also do the trick!
