● Buttons: Two buttonholes are added to each strap for extended wear. This option is available for sizes newborn to 6 months only.

The Natalia Romper is crafted in the Dusted Flowers fabric. However, if you have your own fabric or have seen another fabric you'd like for the Natalia Romper, please let me know. We offer a variety of fabrics to choose from, including:
● Dusted Floral (cotton)

Hello beautiful people

I thought that I would talk to you about some things that I like to do in my personal time when I am not preparing orders or sewing for Bolts & Bee’s.

Ever since I started sewing in college, I loved the idea of making costumes. In the past 9 years, I have made about 50 costumes and 100 items of clothing whether for me or friends. From capes to 50s-inspired overalls, medieval dresses & ball gowns.

In the past year, I have started to enjoy going to Armageddon and similar events. In August I went dressed as a pirate with a dinosaur on my shoulder called a Parrott. In February I spent 2 weeks working on making the 5ths Doctor's outfit for a Doctor Who event.

Photos of costumes in order:
Medieval dress
Pinafore dress
Ball gowns
50s Overalls
Fluoro overalls
Pirate
5th Doctor from Doctor Who

📸 Don't forget to capture those enchanting moments and share them with fellow enthusiasts. Who knows? Your costume creation might inspire someone else to embark on their own creative journey.

✨ So, are you ready to sow the seeds of imagination and reap a harvest of admiration? Tell us about your costumes in the comments, post pictures and let’s ignite the imagination of all who behold them!

🌟Happy New Year everyone!🥳

Finally feels like we are actually getting started, can’t wait to see what new things this year has in store for all of us. So what’s coming up for Bolts & Bees?

👗We'll be introducing some exciting new patterns, expanding the website with many new creations, and even growing our market stall.

🛍️ Our stall is being renamed ‘Bolts & Bees Boutique’, as we're expanding to showcase other beautiful brands that join us at our markets. This year we'll be participating in fewer markets as we focus more on growing our online audience. We'll continue attending the Waikane Community Fair and some other local markets throughout the year. We're also keen to participate in the Manawatu craft and food fair for their September and Christmas markets, but haven't confirmed yet (we'll keep you updated).

🏃‍♂️👩🏽‍💻Coming soon to the website are all the brand-new styles we worked on last year and sneaky surprises we are preparing for our Autumn & Winter releases.

Just before Christmas, we ventured into making some beautiful pinafore aprons for adults, and they were a hit! I was thrilled with the turnout, so watch this space in the coming months as we venture into new areas… 👀

We hope you all had a fantastic summer and looking forward to an awesome year ahead.
