greyboy handmade & greyboy vintage shops

summer series coming soon....





greyboy handmade shop: childhood, nostalgia, city aspects, gender neutral street style

i blame art school for subconsciously making everything a concept and pushing ideas to a specific point and reason. greyboy started 3 years ago as a hobby. making my son handmade clothes. once i started i couldn't turn it off and it has now developed into its own style. all designs are hand-drawn & handprinted (mostly screen printed but some are hand painted) raising my kids in the city has been my biggest inspiration. they already seem to have a sense of style and are aware of all their city surroundings. we have a lot of fun items to share. stay tuned!
new instagram: @greyboyshop with have all the sneak peaks. summer series is coming soon :) 



greyboy vintage: sprouted from having a creative block. its a great way to turn my mind off and get into a different realm. almost like getting lost in a good book. thrift stores are my therapy. escaping into the past to find decades of fashion designs. there is nothing better than that special find. you didn't know what you were looking for until you found it. that high drives me to then create more. so basically my life is creating and finding and then creating more.

small shopper / mister alphabet


as a mother and a teacher, i am always searching for innovative ideas and tools for learning. lincoln's at the age now where he is just starting to learn numbers and letters. mister alphabet is such a great way to get my son to learn and play, and can i mention what a well designed mister this is!




mister alphabet is a figurine designed to bend into every letter of the alphabet. he was created to bring the alphabet to life through innovative interplay of figuration and letter formation, uniting adults with children and design with education. based in los angeles, mister alphabet is proudly made in the USA.

mister alphabet is an original "hands on" approach to learning. the functionality of the figurine is directed toward education, yet allows for a personal, creative experience. although art and education are at the core of mister alphabet, he remains a design object of discovery and play for all ages. 

get yourself over to [kickstarter] to get yourself one of these rad little guys.



"L" is for Lincoln


and "J" will baby #2.. 
can you take a guess at the name? (yes we have already chosen it!)

greyboy's tiny winter 2015 collection

greyboy is excited to announce new handmade items in the shop. its our "tiny winter" collection. (probably "fashionably late" for a winter collection- but thats how things tend to happen around here) i plan on adding more and more as i have the time to design, produce, photograph, and post. juggling work, motherhood, and the desire to create can be challenging. but i always enjoy that moment when it all comes together. 

someone's half birthday is today and we are super excited to celebrate 18 months!
[shop] today and save 10% off all items with promo code: HALFBDAY (ends at midnight)




a special thanks to my lovely model, who only charges me in food and clothing samples.
also- i love looking back at the [summer in the city 2014 lookbook]
my sweet boy has grown so much since then.

coming soon...



so exciting to see this project i've been working on for a while now coming together. i've been drawing and screen printing and choosing cohesive garments and sewing and gathering bits and pieces for packaging.. and i'm almost there. i wanted to share the beginnings of a handmade company. because sometimes the process can be as thrilling as the final product.



 once everything is together and ready to roll, i'm going to have a pre-sale. where you can order any size, print, plush, etc. and i will make it especially for you! 
- onesies
- t-shirts
- tanks
- dresses
- plush
(sizes will run from 6 months - 4 years) 
there will be an opening sale and some giveaways soon!
