Looking for a Western Baby & Toddler Designer?
If your company is looking for an experienced Western baby and toddler apparel and accessory designer, I would love to hear from you.
I’m Caroline Riepler, Owner, Designer & Artist of Western Border and Co. I have been designing and creating Western and country-inspired baby and children’s products for many years. My work has been carried by retail stores across the United States and featured in various magazines.
Over the years, I have developed a strong understanding of taking an idea from the initial design concept to a finished prototype, with manufacturing in mind.
What I Can Offer Your Company
I can work with companies looking for original Western-inspired designs, including:
- Western baby and toddler apparel
- Children's clothing and accessories
- Western-themed prints and artwork
- Embroidery designs and concepts
- Original product concepts
- Prototype development
- Design specifications for manufacturing
- Design preparation for overseas manufacturing
- Product development assistance
I understand that designing for manufacturing involves more than creating something beautiful. A successful product also needs to be thoughtfully designed with construction, materials, sizing, production, and applicable children's product safety requirements in mind.
I also have experience understanding CPSIA (Consumer Product Safety Improvement Act) requirements as they relate to children's products and the importance of creating products with compliance and manufacturing considerations in mind.
From Creative Idea to Prototype
One of my strengths is being able to take a creative idea and turn it into something that can be communicated to a manufacturer.
I can develop the design concept, create a prototype or sample, and work through the details needed to help move a product toward manufacturing.
If your company already has a manufacturing partner but needs an experienced designer who understands the creative and practical sides of product development, I would be happy to discuss your project.
Looking for Something Original?
My designs are original creative works and are protected by copyright. Any licensing, manufacturing, or use of my original designs would need to be discussed and agreed upon in writing.
If you are a company, manufacturer, children's brand, or retailer looking for an experienced Western baby and toddler designer, please reach out to me.
I would love to learn about your company and discuss how my design experience could help bring your next Western children's collection to life.
