Pinkies & Piggies glass keepsakes . . . precious little hands and feet, preserved forevermore

Exhibitor: Whitehouse Glass
Contact Person: Rachel Nixon, Creator & Owner
Website: www.pinkiesandpiggies.com
Booth#: 913

My story:
After giving birth to my first child, Esther, in 2004, I searched for a special way to capture forever the beauty of her precious little hands and feet.I struck upon the idea of casting her hands and footprints in glass, as I am an artist, and glass is my favorite medium. It took a few tries, but before long, I had created exact replicas of Esther’s hands and feet and etched each with her name and birth date.Everyone who saw them was amazed by their incredible level of detail, down to the tiniest lines. Soon, people were asking me to create glass keepsakes for their babies—and the requests just kept on coming. In 2005, I dubbed my creations Pinkies & Piggies™ and began producing them from my studio, Whitehouse Glass, which is located in the little town of Whitehouse, Ohio.Whether you’re looking for a unique gift for a baby shower or want a keepsake for your own baby, I promise that it will be created with the same hand craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into my daughter’s.

I look forward to meeting you personally at the Indy Baby Expo!

The Painted Polka Dot
Whimsical Décor for Children and Home

Once upon a time there were two mommies who wanted unique furnishings for their homes but didn't want to pay steep retail prices. These mommies began creating their own whimsical treasures by scouring old antique stores and reliable thrift stores for solid pieces of furniture, then recycling them with paint, fabric, and paper. The mommies soon realized that they could offer their services to the general public in an effort to create beautiful handcrafted home furnishings, including furniture and accessories, at a fraction of the cost of popular retail stores and boutiques.

It is our goal to create individual and one-of-a-kind furniture pieces and accessories to brighten up your home. We believe in the importance of our homes reflecting our spirits, and in the comfort of our personal space confines. Using old wooden picture frames, photo mats, clocks, lamps, shades, tin buckets and anything else that can be refurbished is the key to keeping our costs low and keeping originality high. Additionally, we are inspired by recycling items that might have overstayed their place in this world.

One of our guiltiest pleasures is to update and customize YOUR wooden pieces. Whether you've purchased a bare wood stool, believe in the durability of a well-worn dresser from your childhood, or find a great deal at a garage sale (our favorite!), we can give it new life AND implement your preferred color schemes.

Red Bucket LA... "The New Chick in Town"

Exhibitor: Red Bucket LA
Contact Person: Debbie, Gina and Lisa Watson sales@redbucketla.com
Website: www.redbucketla.com
Booth Number: 820

OUR STORY
Red Bucket LA was started by 3 sisters raised in a farming community in Southern Indiana. After many years of working for corporate America in retail, sales and marketing, we decided it was time to live our best life by combining family, fashion and fun. We soon discovered that our baby chick collection brought smiles and laughter to so many customers. We remind people of simple pleasures and take them back to a time of innocence.

PRODUCT
Our baby chick collection onesies and tee shirts are custom-designed and made of 100% interwoven cotton, elastic free and tagless in the neckline for babies' comfort. To the touch, our unique designs have been specially flocked to bring the fuzzy baby chicks to life. Sizes range from 3 months to 4T.

BEHIND THE SEAMS
Our original designs are inspired by fond childhood memories with an added sense of humor. Our name Red Bucket LA was inspired by those memories. As children, we would fill up a Red Bucket with cold water to cool off our feet while playing in the hot summer heat.
We create and manufacture our products in the USA, in Los Angeles, CA. You can buy our baby chick collections at www.redbucketla.com or call 317.566.0644

FREE shipping for the month of March.
