Take a simple idea, make it colourful and you have Simply Colors!
Clothes with a personal touch
There are many places you can get a photo or a slogan put onto a T-shirt, but often the price is either too high, or the quality of the clothing isn't good enough… Here at ThinkBaby we love the brand new British company Simply Colors (an extension to an already established European company) who are making clothes for babies, toddlers and children that the kids love to wear and parents enjoy buying.
A great new business venture
Inspired by a gift her son received from a doting aunt, proud mum Keeley has set up her own franchise of this company. This is how the story goes…
Oliver's Spanish auntie wanted to send Oliver something
special for his 1st birthday and when the package arrived
Keeley was surprised to see an orange T-Shirt with
blue text imprinted on the front 'lo se lo dice mi tia!'
(Translation 'I know because my auntie says so!')
This was a hit with Oliver and it seemed too much fun to resist finding out more…
When Keeley found out this company had many franchises but none operating here in the UK she leapt at the chance of being a mum-in-business, and has now launched Simply Colors.
Easy to order and fun to wear
The idea is brilliantly easy: customers pick an item of clothing from the range of baby bodies (vests), long- and short-sleeved T-shirts, sundresses, short-sleeved polo shirts or pull-up trousers.
The items are all made of really great quality cotton and are easy to wash. They come in nine rich colours - pinks, blues, red, orange, white etc - so you then pick your colour and size (from newborn to, depending on the item, about 24 months or up to six years).
Next you decide what you want the message to be - your child's name, a cheeky message or something sweet with a personal special meaning to you and your family.
You choose the kind of type (the way the letters look) and the colour of the lettering, and because you are ordering online, you can see on the screen what your finished item will look like before you complete your order.
An affordable special gift
Parents love adding the personal touch to a gift for their baby, and toddlers and older children adore the fact that they have something unique that no-one else has at nursery or school.
The price is really competitive: the wording is just £3.95 per side (in case you want a message on the back and front of the garment). The T-shirts, vests and dresses are all really cheap too, especially for the quality. The most expensive items (for 5 to 6-year-olds) are just £8.95 and many are cheaper than that.
It's great fun and a lovely way to create an affordable personalised present. See for yourself, at www.uk.simplycolors.com.
Keeley is launching Simply Colors at the NEC Baby Expo this weekend - if you're going, say 'hi' at stand J27!
