Sneak Peek : This Ones For The Boys....


Sorry if we have been a little quiet on the blog the past week,
it is only because we have been creating new products for those sweet little boys
in your life!
After creating the Mens Shirt Dress for the girls out of Mens Dress Shirts,
I am still left with quite a bit of scraps from the shirt.
Of course I don't want to be wasteful and toss the leftovers so instead I found the perfect
solution.....
a patchwork quilt!



And coming soon are quilted baby bibs also from
the Mens Dress Shirts!



Here at Rags & Riches we are committed to recycling and reusing
as much materials as possible!

Stay tune for a etsy shop update with all of our new boy products!
