ABOUT US

'We're all getting older, that's no secret. We watch the next generation age and we wonder how long it will take for each bright, unique young mind to slowly warp and eventually cave in to the trends that dominate the teenage years. Thankfully, Cluster of Parrots provides an alternative for the discerning parent. An opportunity to forgo the familiar pink bunnies and blue bears for something a bit more original, hopefully providing the little one with a sense of self from a very young age.'

Cluster of Parrots is a young mother, tired of Pooh and ducks, with the help of other local artists. When I decided to screen print clothing for my baby I took a look at other websites offering non-traditional onesies, but wasn't very impressed. Either the images were bold and busy or the statements they made were too loud and obnoxious. I believe the little munchkin should be center stage, and the clothing their props. So I am driven by simplicity in my designs.

I also really wanted to give choices: color choices, image placement choices, garment choices. I want parents to have a part in creating a look for their baby and to provide an opportunity for friends and family to make their own personal gifts.

Cluster of Parrots has been online since January 2005. My goal is for the site to grow with my daughter in regards to clothing sizes, and hopefully she can give me great design ideas along the way.

So visit, shop, give me ideas or feedback and send photos of the little guys and gals in or with COP products.
