107barney | 02-27-2022 09:48 AM | Hi guys! Yes, I closed T Bumpkins at the end of last year after 12 years. When I lost my Teddy Bumpkins, I lost the company mascot and my motivation. I know many of our customers were sad to say goodbye and we were too. I wish I had more time to serve everyone but I had to make a decision. The labor intensive nature of the business, higher supply and shipping costs, increased business expenses, along with personal health challenges over the last few years also were factors in the decision.
I loved being able to make so many friends and provide a needed service to amazing owners and their pets. My customers ranged from many of our YT friends to larger breeds and the occasional cat and bunny customers. Early on, I made a lot of dog pajamas, nighties, blankets and other clothes, and of course diapers and belly bands. I’ve sewn thousands of items and millions of stitches and loved it for many years.
T Bumpkins is permanently closed. We thank you! |
