Ribbit! New Vendor Iris Frog Hops Into the 2015 Holiday Boutique


Have you ever met someone and just KNOWN that this person is your spiritual sister? For me, that person would have to be Claremore's own Kimi Pranger. I think the thing that draws me to her is her absolute love of children.

That, and Kimi has way more style and chutzpah than I do. This is a woman who isn't afraid to add bright color to her hair, who effortlessly pulls together an amazing outfit, and who speaks to you as though you are the only person in the room with her.


Kimi has started a home-based business called Iris Frog, specializing in handmade attire for children and adults, some knitted, some sewn. Iris Frog got its name from Kimi's two favorite things: iris flowers and frogs. I'm loving the chapeaus above. The gray hat with the ears is so precious.

For years now, Kimi has taught school, mainly at The Mustard Seed, a wonderful local preschool. I've had the honor of working with her at Vacation Bible School before. Seeing her interact with little ones will make your heart smile. And I can see her love for children shining through in her clothing designs.


These mother-daughter, grandmother-granddaughter aprons are just precious, and an acknowledgment that one of the best things we can do with the children who come into our lives is to spend quality time with them, such as teaching them how to bake or cook a favorite family recipe. These aprons would make a great gift for the new mother or grandmother in your life.


These animal print jackets are simply amazing. What little girl wouldn't look Paris runway ready in these one-of-a-kind creations?


Kimi also sews little boy shorts and trousers. I love these - especially the pants with the monkey pocket and cuff!


These ruffled skirts once again demonstrate the style genius of Kimi Pranger. Cute, cute, cute!!

You will not want to miss the Iris Frog booth at the 2015 Holiday Boutique. Go by and say "hi" to Kimi. You will be very glad you did!
