We are a small family owned
business made up of mainly mothers and daughters. Our love for flowers
and gardening are the inspiration behind Kia Girl accessories. Because
we live in the mid-west, every spring we head for our gardens. Some of
our little girls even have their own miniature gardens. We decorate our
gardens with pots and signs. One of our pots is engraved with, "One who
plants a garden, plants happiness." In the corner of the garden we have
a sign that says, To plant a garden spreads love." Every year the well
being and happiness that comes from working in our garden and watching
it grow is short lived because the cold mid-west winter comes in and our
flower gardens are over until next spring.
Two years ago my daughter Kia asked, "Mom why can't we have flowers all
the time?" I told her, "We can." We decided to take our love for the
garden indoors. We design hand crochet hats with beautiful silk flowers.
It is our hope that our hat garden will spread seeds of love and
happiness for little girls undergoing chemo or with alopecia. We feel
they are perfect for building their self esteem and helping them to
recognize that they are still beautiful even though experiencing periods
of hair loss which occur with chemo therapy. |
