We're Starting a Children's Line!
Posted on the 16 September 2013 by AugustabelleFriends and readers, I am so excited and proud to finally announce what my dear friend Latonya and I have been working on for the past few months... we are launching a sustainable clothing line! After keeping the details under wraps for awhile now, and running around with our little ones to fabric suppliers and production studios and photo shoots, we are finally ready to unveil Welkin NYC.
It all started one night many months ago as Gaby and I laid in bed exhausted, talking about the future, and creativity, and careers. He asked me the simple question, "Well baby, what do you love?" And, in a moment of introspection, I replied "Well, I love my kids. And I love designing. And, of course, I love this city." And then it dawned on me: why not combine all three? Many months, one amazing business partner, countless patterns, and one final collection later, we are ready to launch Welkin NYC, a completely sustainable children's clothing line inspired by, made in, and made for, New York City.
And we would be so grateful for your help!
Our Kickstarter campaign is live now! Please head over and watch our video, read about our line, and check out our awesome rewards to see if any catch your eye. ;) And if you feel so inclined, please please please help us spread the word about our campaign. Just sharing our Kickstarter page with others is really such a huge help! We are working to get the word out in every way that we can!
You can find our brand new Welkin NYC facebook page here, our instagram account here, our Kickstarter here, and our official website here.
We have been working on this for so long and are beyond excited to finally be on the path to making our dream become reality. Thank you for your help!!
