Kind words from lovely customers

I just wanted to message and say thank you so much! The jumper I ordered was for Nana’s Christmas present! She absolutely loved it! It is honestly amazing. It’s even better than I expected. Seeing my little boy’s clothes turned into something so special is just lovely. Thank you for putting so much care into it — you’ve done such a beautiful job. Thanks again 💙

I’ve now bought a couple of sweatshirts from Lauren at Lil and Loved, and I honestly couldn’t recommend her enough! I ordered a MAMA and a DADA sweatshirt made from two different sets of my daughter’s outgrown clothes, and they turned out beautifully. The care and attention Lauren puts into each piece is incredible, and she kept me updated throughout the whole process, which was so reassuring. The turnaround was also super quick — just a couple of weeks from when she received the babygrows. Thank you so much for creating such special keepsakes for our family 💕

Absolutely amazing keepsake jumper made from my baby girl’s old clothing. The quality is outstanding and the attention to detail is beautiful, Lauren is very talented! Super quick turnaround time as well, which was a huge bonus. Such a special way to keep precious memories - I’m beyond happy with it! 💗🎀
