Meet our Fifth WAHM run business:
*Bunky Fluff is our newest WAHM retailer, in fact so new, that our order is still in the mail! We were so excited when we added them, that it got us thinking about our huge celebration. We will do another blog post on them in the near future!*
The Mom behind it all: Caroline Hoffman
Tell us about yourself: “My cloth diaper making adventure all started when I was about 6 months pregnant, which about October 2009. I had already decided I was going to cloth diaper and had a pretty good stash built up. I then started researching on how I could make my own. Funny thing is I didn't even own a sewing machine! So lucky me my husband bought me one for Christmas and I started to make my own diapers.
I announced to all my co-workers of my dream of making and selling them online. Most of them laughed at me and took bets on how long I would last at cloth diapering to begin with. So I began to sew, it was a lot of trial and error, about 2 months worth and before I knew it February came and so did my little one. I took a break from sewing and focused on my new arrival. While I was on maternity from my full time job I received a phone call from work with bad news. The company decided to layoff 300 people in my building and I was one of them. I actually really enjoyed my job, but on the other hand the timing was kind of good because deep down I also wanted to stay home and enjoy my son. So with no job to go back to I decided to start back up on making diapers in hopes to sell them.
I started out making them for my son, then I invested in a serger to be able to make soakers for AI2's and fitteds, and from there it took off. I finally had a product I was proud of, and sent out to testers for approval. Everyone seemed to like them so I started making more of them and just selling them as I go. I also have started to make fleece soakers, upcycled wool soakers and pockets. Right now my main focus is Fitteds, AI2's, and babylegs. I am also a consultant for Tastefully Simple, which is another job I do on the side. My goal in the end is to be able to be a work at home mom selling cloth diapers.Products Top to Bottom Baby Boutique Carries:
Caroline was nice enough to offer up a fleece soaker and some Halloween baby legs to one lucky reader!

«Oldest ‹Older 1 – 200 of 250 Newer› Newest»We only have a few fitteds right now, and they are our nighttime diapers, so they are almost always covered. I just got my first wool cover to try. I have used one of our fitteds during the day without a cover though when she started getting a little red and I wanted to let her get more air. Hopefully I will have enough fitteds soon that I can let her wear the cute ones coverless during the day and still have enough for overnights.

I cover them. My son is a super soaker, and its pretty chilly now and we do not have a washing machine.
I only have a couple fitteds and i don't cover them up. They are too cute to be under a cover

I only have a few fitteds and I do cover them up.... I didn't know that you could actually leave them uncovered. I would think my son would pee everywhere!!!! :) I'm now going to leave him uncovered, when we are at home at least! Thanks

I'm waiting on my little one to arrive and building my stash, so I don't have any experience...but I thought fitted really needed a cover! So much to learn...lol. I'll have to try going without!

I like to leave the fitted cover free as for a little bit, but then, of course, for overnight they need to be covered--I love wool for that purpose!

I am not a fitted user, but have used them and due to my overly heavy wetter, I had to use a cover. I wouldn't dare let him run loose without!

I have two fitteds right now and I typically use them at night so I do use a cover on them but if I have a clean one on the line I sometimes use the other around the house for a bit ( this is usually when she decides to mess them up fast! ) :)

I usually use a cover, but if I'm just at home and trying to get his little tushy some air time, I'll go coverless. I enjoy the cute factor, even if no one else sees it that day :)

I cover our fitteds because my little guy is a big time heavy wetter! I am jealous of the people who can go without!

I actually don't own any fitteds, but if I had some, I'd probably let them run around in a cute ooga print at home and get a couple covers for out and about.
Amy Peter
I didn't even know that I could! ;o) I thought the clothes would become soaked but I plan to try EC so maybe I will be able to not cover my fitteds... for now I only have one fitted and it's not very cute so I will see! It will also depend on my budget... I plan to make my own prefolds and wool cover if my budget is tight. But if not I will LOVE to buy cute little fitted!

I haven't got a little one yet, but the thought of covering the cuteness makes me think I will leave them uncovered around home. When leaving the house or during nap/night time, I would use cute covers.

I typically let them run cover-free, but depending on where we are or if it might be a while until I can change them, we also have ton of cute covers just in case! :)

I actually haven't used a fitted yet! But I have one on the way. I think I'll do a combination of both. I think if we're at home and I keep a close eye on how long the diaper is on, then I'd like to go without a cover, but will cover it up the rest of the time. I'd love to try a fitted and fleece or wool soaker at night! Thanks!
