Of course, like most products, Bugalug Barrettes were born out of a need. There were so few cute barrettes out there and nothing that would stay in my friends newborn’s hair. Together we tried many different styles, ribbons, clips etc. and this was the best product we could make. We loved the idea that they were safe (non-toxic glue), super cute and yet not too cutesy, and that they stayed where they were put! And Bugalug Barrettes was born.
Initially I started promoting the barrettes at trade shows and craft fairs within Calgary. The response was overwhelming! Mom’s LOVED the simple designs, the trendy colors and the exceptional value. By January they had caught the eye of a few retailers and within 4 months we were in over 95 stores across Canada!
We are continuously working on new colors, new products and new ways to improve our products and our brand. If you have any suggestions, we’d love to hear them! Keep your eyes out for more fabulous Bugalug products over the next 6 months. |
