Apparently Those Pictures were Not Cute Enough

Last Baby Blooms post for at least a few days.



Celia, arbiter of all things blog, said that the pictures of the Baby Blooms did not do their cuteness justice. She helped me with a photo shoot today. Here are our spoils:



Proof that Baby Blooms work for those lacking hair handfuls of hair. Alice is a great model.
Sparkly, pretty purples.

Side view with prop.



Close up yellow



Reds, whites and blacks.In just 24 hours, there are already some updates:


1) You can buy them straight from the site thanks to paypal and Becky.


2) People have already bought them and that makes me happy! The world needs Baby Blooms.


3) If you want extra adhesives, we'll add 20 more for an extra $1 just lemme know in your emails babyblooms@gmail.com


4) Statement of purpose clarification. This is not necessarily a money making get rich quick endeavor. We'd give them away just to spread cuteness, but we have to cover costs. I didn't ask for this project, it happened to me. I am generally against mother marketing (isn't that awful? I'm sorry!) and marketing in general (see book). I'm an ideas girl. If you need a project, I'm a good project thinker upper. I delegate well. I'd rather be reading and shopping, but if people need cute hair things for their babies, who am I to deprive them?


Today at Celia's, I offered Paige and Celia this new hobby: making Baby Blooms. They scoffed and said, "Why do people always think I want more jobs to do? I don't!" Really, neither do I. I already do Pam's choreography, and I teach at two schools now. Again, my sisters are probably right when they said, "Teaching? I give it a year." So consider this a sacrifice, people. I don't want more jobs, I just want people to have cute baby hair things so that their girl babies don't look like boys.


SPREAD THE CUTE.

I'd like to buy a baby to go with the blossoms, please. Either one will do,

Jessica said...

Really SO SO cute. Makes me want to get pregnant. I think I will. (Give me a month or two.)

I am an awesome photographer. I should start a business like everyone else in the world.

We are thankful you are spreading the joy. I'm ready for my blooms.

Paige said...

New background for you! Let me know if you want to change.

AnnEE said...

Would it be tacky to put blooms in MY hair??

Seriously, these are SOOO cute. I was wondering what you do once the adhesive wears off.

Ellie said...

I still like my "fire truck" blooms idea. You could use scrapbooking notions. I am sure they have trucks. How 'bout it, Crafty?

Becky said...

The new pictures are super cute, although I'm a little sad that Isabella wasn't included in the photo shoot!:) Anyhow, I just wanted add that you can now order the 20 extra adhesives directly from the website as well--yay!

Lisa-Marie said...

Those really are so cute. What about if I wanted just a few from each color selection? Can we be so picky?!?!?

The two cute girls make the blooms even more desirable! Good job sistas!

Audry said...

Yes, very cute. Alice and Mimi did there jobs very well

AMY said...

Cute little models! Can't wait to get my order. Can I ask for/offer a suggestion?
I do OB and deliver LOTS of baby girls. I gave your website out to one particularly looks challenged baby girl this morning (I hope the blooms help!) and had an epiphany! Send me little business cards with a cute pic and web address and I'll hand them out to all new mommies of girls! Every little girl needs some blooms! Seriously...let me know if you wanna.

As mentioned before...if I ever manage to give birth to a girl (it's a dream of mine)... I am totally in! Those are adorable!

Call me when you are a millionaire. Very inventive!!

I'm curious about the adhesive - is it liquid welder or something?

Alex said...

Nor, have you always been a creative genius or was I just not paying attention before? Brilliant. Harrison wants some but I told him he's gotta either give em to his girlfriend(s) or wait till the stork brings a sister. Plus, the book comes before the blooms on the "to buy" list.
