Ipod Hoodie Update

ipod Hoodie

A couple of years ago my son, Ashley, and I started a little business from home selling a soft cover for the ipod, a grey sweatshirt Hoodie. It was a steep learning curve in online selling, from the design, patenting the design, dealing with a manufacturer, quality control, setting up a website and publicity. Our biggest coup was getting it on the Gadget Show, Tom Dunmore the editor-in-chief of Stuff magazine declared it to be his favourite ipod cover. When David Cameron said "Hug a Hoody" we sent him one, we never missed an opportunity! Eventually Ashley and I decided we had taken it as far as we could and handed it over to another company. It was a good decision as now our little Hoodies are being sold online by Urban Outfitters in America, we feel it has arrived! You can also buy it here at www.lazyboneuk.com  and www.giftlab.co.uk and also other outlets

Wow, congratulations! It is certainly a great concept and design ...

Well done to you and your family on the hoodies.

I have sent you an award for having a fabulous blog. You can collect it from my blog.

I love reading about your shopping trips and the fabulous things you have made.

I have been inspired to make a pom pom garland for Christmas - still in the process of pompoming lol and have made the halloween lantern and bat so far.

I managed to get over to Welwyn Garden City John Lewis this week and purchased some double pointed needles so hope to start the necklace once Halloween has finished.

Keep blogging with love from Tracey {a fellow Hertfordshire resident :) }

Wow Tracey you have been busy!

Thanks for the award, you're too kind. I'll pop over and pick it up.

 

A great idea and fun product - it must be really rewarding to see it sold by a big retailer!

Yes! We had one or two blips along the way but over all it was fun and we learnt alot about running a business.
