Awh! Those lazy, hazy, crazy days of summer have come to an end. They go so fast don’t they? To salute the summer of 2008, we are so delighted to present Curby’s Closet’s “FLOWER BED BABIES“.
All the models who participated in the Curby’s Closet Vintage Baby Fashion Shows this past summer are featured in this adorable (Ann Geddes inspired) garden video. I think if Ann Geddes saw this video even SHE would be impressed. I promise you will find it ever so sweet and adorable!!

I got the inspiration for this video from my wonderful husband who built me this very unique and darling flower bed from an old youth bed headboard and foot board. I painted it and my 2 awesome sons filled it with flowers. (It was actually my Mother’s Day gift this year. Pretty cool huh?) It is quite the conversation piece in our backyard. And I thought that it would be perfect for our babies!

If you love gardens, flowers, cute babies and the Beatles (”Good day Sunshine” is featured in the background music) then you are going to absolutely go NUTS over this video.

Enjoy it, share it, send it to Ann Geddes!! (Just kidding! Well, unless you really want to)

SPECIAL THANKS: A really big THANK YOU to all my beautiful babies and their wonderful mothers, grandmothers and aunts who were so wonderful to work with on all of the Youtube videos. You are Fantastic!!
And a HUGE THANK YOU to my son Brett who is so talented and amazing!! There would be no “Curby’s Closet website, blog, or fashion show videos without him… he did it all!!

“Curby’s Closet” very excitedly presents our 2nd Vintage Baby Fashion Show. This fashion show is so unique and features “one of a kind” vintage baby dresses and sundresses that you will not find anywhere else. How cool is that? These adorable little dresses are very ECO FRIENDLY and have been made by re-using and re-purposing the top portion of vintage baby slips and dresses and the beautiful and very usable parts of vintage tablecloths. We don’t let a stain or hole or a little damage to a piece of clothing discourage us from saving the wonderful, lovely and usable parts. They are embellished with vintage buttons and/or hankies. There are so many creative, useful and fresh new ways of preserving these items and not adding to land fills, bins and clutter.
The unique pattern and dress designs are exclusive to “Curby’s Closet” and we are proud and thrilled to share them with you.
We used many of our same adorable models from our Youtube “Through the Garden Gate” video. These little girls are so cute and sweet! Your just gonna love them!
You will find all these dresses for sale for a very reasonable price on our ETSY site at christeve92886.etsy.com (or click on the etsy widget to the right)
Thanks for taking a look… thanks for going vintage… thanks for thinking Green… thanks for choosing “Curby’s Closet”!!
Get ready to Smile… cuz your gonna enjoy these next few minutes!!

Hello Everyone,
Thank you so much for viewing and commenting on our “Curby’s Closet” vintage baby fashion show “Through the Garden Gate”. The response was wonderful and your comments truly meant the world to me. Because of this experience I feel that I have come to know many of you a lot better now, and that is so nice! And I hope that you have come to know “Curby’s Closet” better also.
We filmed two other videos at the same time. Another fashion show featuring “One of a Kind” baby dresses made from vintage tablecloths and a very fun garden video set in my “Flower Bed”. They will both be ready for viewing soon.
This has been an interesting and fun experience and I sure do appreciate the support and encouragement from all of you.
If you haven’t had the opportunity to watch the fashion show video or didn’t even know there was a baby fashion show… look at the blog post before this one (July 31st) and click on the Youtube video. It’s sure to bring a SMILE!!
Thanks again, Chris
