About

Blossom’s Closet, where we make every newborn's moment magical!

As a new parent myself, I understand the whirlwind of emotions and tasks that come with welcoming a new addition to the family. It was during the precious days following the birth of my own daughter that the idea for Blossom’s Closet was born. I realized the importance of capturing those fleeting moments in beautifully curated outfits, especially for newborn photoshoots.

At Blossom’s Closet, we're here to make those special moments hassle-free and memorable. Unlike traditional options that require purchasing expensive outfits, we offer a unique rental service tailored specifically for newborns. Our mission is to provide new moms with a wide selection of adorable outfits without the hassle of waiting for orders to arrive while dealing with the aftermath of postpartum recovery.

We understand that time is of the essence for new parents, which is why we've streamlined our process to ensure convenience and accessibility. Our outfits are meticulously handpicked for their quality and charm, and we prioritize gentle care with handwashing using detergents specifically for delicate baby skin.

Our vision for Blossom’s Closet extends beyond just outfit rentals. We aspire to become a trusted provider of outfits for any baby or children's occasion. While we may be starting small, our goal is to expand our offerings and become a one-stop destination for all your little one's wardrobe needs.

With Blossom’s Closet, parents have access to an extensive catalog of outfits to choose from, making it fast, convenient, and cost-effective. No more spending a premium on outfits that are only worn for a few minutes. We're also excited to offer special packages tailored for photographers, ensuring that every photoshoot is a success.

As we continue to grow, we remain committed to providing exceptional service and expanding our offerings to meet the needs of our customers. For now, orders are processed manually, but as our business evolves, we look forward to introducing a full-fledged shopfront for an even smoother experience.

Thank you for choosing Blossom’s Closet to be a part of your newborn's journey. We can't wait to help you create cherished memories that will last a lifetime.

  • Steaming is the best way to remove wrinkles from these delicate items. Removing and hanging your items for a day before your session may also settle wrinkles. Otherwise, try fluffing in the dryer on low for a minute or two (make sure to include other clothing or towels so beads don’t fall off as a result of banging around a dryer). Cotton and silk fabrics may be ironed on low. Do not iron embellishments or tulle fabrics.
