A New Beginning For Lottie Da
An announcement from our family to yours:
Due to the tremendous increase in demand for the Lottie Da brand nationwide, I am excited to announce that we are moving our business in a different direction. After much thought and consideration we have decided to close the doors of our Clintonville boutique. We will be taking the next month to convert our storefront into a design studio and showroom for Lottie Da Designs.
These changes will allow me the time & space to focus on what I do best and what I enjoy the most…..CREATING! We have exciting plans to expand our product lines which will be sold online as well as in boutiques across the country. I am looking forward to the opportunities ahead of us as well as a more flexible schedule and a better balance between work and family. Who knows……maybe the next announcement will be that we are expanding our family! After all, as Charlotte gets older we’re going to need another model!
No need to worry, we are still here for you and ready to fill your shopping needs! The retail focus will simply shift to our online shop www.lottiedababy.com where you will continue to find the most unique selection of handmade baby gifts, children’s clothing, bedding and accessories. As a thank you to our loyal customers, for a limited time we will offer FREE SHIPPING on all local orders!
We encourage you to visit the studio and we can’t wait to show off the finished space. We will be open by appointment only during the week, and on Saturday from 10-5 where you can stop in to pick up a quick gift, view our newest designs in person, or look through our collection of fabrics to place a custom order. We will also be planning pop up shops, design workshops, trunk shows, and other seasonal events! Make sure you are on our mailing list and follow us on Facebook so you can stay updated!
We appreciate all the local support we have received and value the connections we have made with you all. We are so lucky to be celebrating the success of Lottie Da and we hope you will celebrate this new beginning with us! We invite you to stay in touch and evolve with us!
THE DETAILS
The shop will be open limited hours throughout the rest of the month while we reorganize & restructure.
Thursday- Saturday 10-5
Official Closing Date is April 2.
Stay tuned for details on a HUGE Celebration Sale!

Lottie Da Holiday Photoshoot
I was so thrilled to receive a call from my friend Lauryn Byrdy this November saying that she wanted to pull together a quick Holiday themed photo shoot! We usually plan ahead a bit more for these things but this time we pulled it off in just a few days. Lauryn gathered the props, I pulled together the outfits , and the little models brought their bright, fun little personalities to her Upper Arlington studio for one of the most fun shoots we’ve had to date!
I adore the simplicity of these photos and I’m sure you’ll agree that the cuteness factor of these kids is through the roof! A big thank you to Lauryn Byrdy Photography for her immense talent! I owe so much of my online success and national press to her wonderful photos of my designs and I cannot wait to work together on Spring! If you are looking for a photographer for your wedding, family photos, or a commercial shoot , she will not disappoint! Check out http://www.laurynbyrdy.com for more of her work including photos from her adorable and wildly popular North Pole shoot with live penguins!!
Happy Holidays to all of our friends!

Friends! It’s time for another Lovely Lottie Da Giveaway!
We’ve started to get regular posts from all of you sharing photos of your little ones wearing Lottie Da.
We enjoy this so much and appreciate the love! What better way to promote our brand than by all the sweet faces of our little Lottie Da customers posing for photos dressed in items from the shop!
So, post a picture of your child wearing a Lottie Da outfit on your own personal facebook page so that you can show off your Lottie Da love to your friends AND post the same photo on our facebook page for a chance to win a $50 gift certificate towards clothing items in the store! These do not need to be professional photographs but if they are, make sure to tag your photographer and show some love to them, too.
Have fun and we look forward to seeing your cuties in their favorite Lottie Da outfit! Contest ends on Saturday, July 30 (the day of our Summer Carnival Open House) and we will do a drawing to determine the winner.

Vintage Carnival- Summer Lottie Da Photoshoot
Tickets Please……
Popcorn, ferris wheels, cotton candy, & carousels were the inspiration for our latest photo shoot. The theme for the Lottie Da summer line is Vintage Carnival and I am so excited to show you the new collection and the fabulous photos! We have so much fun with these shoots and I’m so grateful to be working with such a talented photographer. A special thank you to my friend Lauryn Byrdy for making my dresses look so good! 
The Vintage Carnival collection is available for purchase in store & online at www.lottiedababy.com or from our Etsy shop. Make sure you “like” LottieDaBaby on Facebook for a chance to win one of these dresses! We have some fun summer contests planned as well as a Carnival themed open house in the boutique this July!
About the dresses: Many of the designs in this collection were created from vintage patterns and feature beautiful vintage reproduction fabrics & retro style feed sack prints. The whimsical designs and fabric mixing that you always see in my designs are updated with some new details like applique and even hand stenciling. 
The wonderful accessories you see in the photos are made locally and are also available for purchase! The colorful necklaces are made by Gracie Jane Designs (Gracie is one of these adorable models!). Gracie’s mom also creates these masterpieces for adults and they can be found at Loot in the Short North! The hair accessories are made by Cutie Heads. I love working with both of these talented moms!
Hope you have enjoyed the photos. For more information about Lauryn Byrdy Photography please visit www.laurynbyrdy.com. And finally , thank you to the wonderful little Lottie Da models and their patient mothers. It is always such a joy to see my designs on your beautiful daughters and their unique personalities are what really makes these photos so special to me! After all that’s what Lottie Da is all about. Love you guys!
