I started Budzie for a simple reason: I love dressing my daughter in trendy clothes. And after looking at girls' fashions, I decided to quit my office job and create my own line of unique designs for young girls. I don't have any formal training but I have what really matters: a beautiful daughter and a passion for that I do. I remember how excited I was when I received my first shipment of the Budzie line. At the time, I thought it was a huge shipment (it fit neatly in 5 small crates). The Budzie line is now stored in a warehouse facility, as we now distribute to Boutiques in 19 states and internationally as well. And that's not the only change.
Lynn Martin joined Budzie as another talented entrepreneur and designer. Trained in graphic arts, Lynn offers Budzie endless design talents. After begging for her skills as a design "volunteer", I invited Lynn to join the company full-time. Lynn is extraordinarily talented and driven. But best of all, she's my dearest friend.
Budzie has more than tripled in size for one simple reason: we love what we do. Please take a look at our designs to see how we translate that inspiration into an uncommonly fashionable line.
