Rainbows, unicorns, polkadots at Blu Moon Design… what little girl doesn’t love that?

Blue Moon Design: Bright, Colorful, FUN clothing for girls Featured in 100 Fun & EASY Learning Games for Kids

100 FUN & EASY LEARNING GAMES FOR KIDS is an educational resource for Early Childhood that is made by moms – for moms (and dads!) That’s right.  So many moms helped us out in writing, photographing, and publishing the book.

I’d like to introduce you to one of those “behind the scenes moms” who helped to make this book a success: Etsy super star: Kristi of Blu Moon Design.

She MADE some of the dresses that some of our kid models are wearing!

That’s right.  Mom made.  Right here in the USA!

We wanted our book to be a FABULOUS resource for parents and teachers – MADE BY MOMS!

If you don’t have the book yet – you can sometimes see the pages if you click the “preview book” on Amazon.  They don’t always show the same pages.

  • See her cute Lime and White Chevron Dress with Bow on Page 113 in our book.  See the learning game FLY BALL in action with a set of Grandparents.
  • Peek at the popular unicorn rainbow dress on page 134 at the beginning of the Super Science chapter.
  • Another Blu Moon Design dress appears on page 146 to show off the Ice Castle Challenge.

Meet ETSY star, Kisti of Blu Moon Design

How many kids do you have and what are their ages?

I have three girls who are 17, 15 and 12.

What is your business and how did it get started?

My business is Blu Moon Design, and I make little girls’ clothing. I got started 10 years ago selling on eBay. There was a large community at that time of handmade boutique clothing, and I thought I’d give it a shot, since I knew how to sew. I sold my first few items, and was hooked! I no longer sell on eBay, but do have an etsy shop, my own website and also sell on Amazon

What is the best part about your job?

I think the best part for me is being able to stay home with my girls. I am able to make all their sporting events and other things they are involved in. Being my own boss is a big perk!

What would your “ideal” day look like?

My ideal day is really spent in my sewing studio getting lots of things done!

What are your favorite 3 craft items to use with kids and what do you use them for?

They are a bit older now for crafts, but when they were younger we loved to use play doh. They can be so creative with it.

We also love to use fabric scraps! There are so many fun things we can make with scraps.

Markers and coloring pencils. Two of my girls love to draw. They all really enjoy adult coloring books now too!

What advice would you give to other moms?

I think I’d have to say enjoy it. The time goes by with them being little so quickly!!My oldest will be starting college this fall and it feels like just yesterday she started kindergarten. Have fun with them.

What Others are Saying About Blu Moon Designs

I purchased this beautiful dress for my daughter’s recital. She sang a song from Finding Nemo the Musical so the motif of the dress was very important. I can’t tell you how great it looked on stage and how much it completed the entire scene. It made you believe she was actually Nemo which is exactly what I wanted to do in an understated way. She received innumerable compliments and we were asked many times where we got it. Of course for her the most important thing was “twirlability” which it delivered on as well. Thank you for making her night so special! Highly recommended!” ~ Antarea on May 22, 2016
