Pea Soup Accessories for Kids

Contestant's Case to Win

This is based on the number of votes received.
Pea Soup Accessories for Kids began in 1999 when my sister had her first baby girl – BALD baby girl, that is. No matter how pink my niece’s clothes were, people would stop and ask, “How old is he?” or comment, “What a beautiful boy.” My sister, an elementary teacher, and I, a social worker, got to work on making beautiful hair clips that would stay in just a few strands of hair. People continued to stop my sister, only to ask where she bought the fantastic hair accessories!

With no prior business experience, we became pioneers of the original “no slip” hair clips and hair bows for infants and toddlers. Today, Pea Soup Accessories for Kids is a leading manufacturer of hand crafted, high quality, boutique childrens' products. The hottest celebrity moms such as Gwyneth Paltrow and Jennifer Garner accessorize their tots with Pea Soup designer duds.

Pea Soup’s other unique designer hair accessories include baby snap clips, snap clips, pinch clips, headbands, soft headband wraps and ponytail holders. Pea Soup’s embellished baseball caps and bucket hats adorn the heads of the most stylish infants and toddlers. In the spirit of Pea Soup’s “no slip clips,” Pea Soup’s premium baby fashion socks are famous for staying on babies’ feet. Purchase socks a la carte, or as part of a fashionable Pea Soup Baby three piece layette gift set.

My sister and I are a dynamic duo. We love adding “Pea Soup” to the everyday chaos of motherhood. What began as a challenge has become our passion. We continue to enjoy custom designing and creating innovative, specialized, handmade childrens' products that are great for holidays, weddings, special occasions and everyday wear. We would be honored to be one of the winners of the leading moms in business competition!
