Freshly Picked Moccasins and Giveaway
Let me start by saying that i love small businesses and like to support them whenever i get a chance. Susan Peterson, who runs Freshly Picked, has two kids and with her team, makes each pair of moccasins by hand out of her home in Utah. She is constantly working on improving her products and making sure they are "durable, well-designed" and stay on little's feet; and i love that she is a mom and uses her son as a tester. She even has a video on her blog where she encourages entrepreneurs to follow their dreams and conveys how she balances her life as a mother and a business owner. Knowing a bit of her story makes me love this company even more, and makes me want to support other companies like this.
My moccasins came in soft envelope, inside a cute little bag with the Freshly Picked logo on it. I wish i took a pic but i was too excited to see the moccasins! They are really well made soft-soled shoes. I like that there are different pieces stitched together so that when your little one steps or stands, there is a little pocked that forms on the side that opens the back of the shoe, allowing airflow, which is perfect for summer (if we ever have a summer)
I'm sure i'm not the only one who has trouble putting shoes on babies/kids feet, all children i've been around typically have small chubby feet and they just love curling their tiny toes when you try and put shoes on them. The elastic on these moccasins make them snug but also allows for easy on and off.
And now the question on everyone's mind: Are they worth the price? I am VERY thrifty, i love nothing more than finding amazing items on sale, or even better a consignment store! However, i think owning a good pair of shoes is important for adults as well as littles. Freshly Picked are well made and super cute for those reasons alone i think that every baby/kid should own a pair.
