![]() Ribbies Clippies®was created in August of 2006 by sisters Kristen Creamer and Kim Marable. We were looking for cute hair accessories for our young daughters and noticed the selection hadn't changed much from when we were little. It was mostly big bows and plastic barrettes that slid out. We wanted to design something simpler, more proportionate to a baby's face. About the same time, we came across the huge selection of fun scrapbooking ribbon that was relatively new to the market and thought it was a perfect fit. We added the foam grip and the clips stayed in our daughter's hair all day. In 2006 we were making them ourselves at the kitchen table. Now we have a manufacturer, a fulfillment center and distributors in 9 countries. We could never have predicted this sort of growth so quickly. We are just doing something we love, which we think is why Ribbies is successful. We have expanded our line with several new products including pacifier clips, clippie cases, and selling Ribbies own custom ribbon designs by the yard. We now have over 140 ribbon selections to choose from. A special thanks to our great husbands Chuck and Rob and our inspiring kids Nate, Gibson, Reagan, Stella and Ethan. We appreciate all of you who have helped us along the way and to all of our customers who continue to spread the word about Ribbies! Kristen and Kim |
