Amy Tricot Christening Gown - One Small Child

Amy Sheer Blessing Dress, Christening Dress, Baptism Dress with Matching Baby Headband

Sweet Amy!

Next up from our NEW designs is our Amy Blessing Dress.

Amy Short Christening Dress by One Small Child

 

Blessing Dress Details:

A 100% sheer lattice, polyester dress delicately overlays a soft 100% cotton slip.  Flower-vine details float atop the bodice lattice and skirt edge.  Perfectly scrunched lace wraps each sleeve in pure sweetness.  The white satin-ribbon sash makes getting that perfect fit a breeze.  (Ever wondered how to tie a dress sash into a perfect bow?  Check out our Facebook page for a tutorial.)

A matching headband pulls this quaint little dress altogether.  Soft elastic is attached to more flower-vine goodness, while an off-centered satin bow adds that “little something extra”.

Accessories:

Every mom wants their little one’s day to be memorable.  Let us help with our many accessories and embroidery options.  Listed below are some must-haves to create a notable and hassle-free day.

  • Camisole Onsie – not only do these hold baby’s diaper firmly in place during the ceremony, they are great for everyday use (get more and save with our 3-pack).  Have her initials monogrammed on the chest for a personal touch.
  • Cotton Diaper Cover – dainty satin-ribbon bows and cotton ruffles adorn the  legs.  And what could be more adorable than a cross, shamrock, or baby’s name embroidered on the bum!
  • Floral Initial Ruffle Bib – keep her dress pristine with a bib that looks as pretty as the dress.  The floral embroidery detail compliment the dress and the flourish initial makes it custom just for her.
  • Silver & Pearl Name Bracelet – divine fresh-water pearls and sterling silver beads encircle baby’s name, spelled in sterling silver letter blocks.  Add a cross charm and/or birthstone crystal to sparkle on her tiny wrist. Finally, a half-inch silver chain enables the bracelet to adjust for a lasting fit.

Have any embroidery done in your choice of white, baby pink, soft green, metallic gold, or silver thread.  White thread offers a subtle look, pink or green enhances her small features, while metallic gold and silver create a timeless feel.

Christening Gown Keepsake Bag - One Small Child

Traditions: Sweet Christening Keepsakes

Let’s get sentimental. A baby’s Christening or Baptism is his first big event in a lifetime of religious faith. It’s something to be remembered years down the road. Most of us have a trinket or two from different special events that have become a keepsake to us–a prized possession. Our Christening keepsakes have become our treasures as years have passed. Each memento serves as a memory and link to the past; the beginning promise of a wonderful life. These treasures are often shared with our family and close friends, bringing us together with love and memories. These are precious traditions! As parents, we long for our children to have the same special sentiments, the same fond memories and feel the same love. These are some sweet Christening sentiments that can become mementos for baby’s lifetime and even generations to come.

  • Christening gowns often become treasured keepsakes that are used by many other children in the family and handed down from generation to generation
  • Other Christening clothing, such as a slip, is often shared between siblings. Each one’s initials can be embroidered on the hem to make it even more special
  • Christening booties become a lifetime keepsake
  • A cross necklace can be shared between siblings and generations
  • A special picture frame becomes a lifetime keepsake
  • A special memory book from the event to share the event with future generations
  • Baby’s boutonniere may become part of the wedding bouquet or garter
  • Baby’s bracelet may become part of the wedding bouquet or garter
  • Baby’s bonnet may become a trousseau hankie
  • Her headband can become her wedding garter
  • A special scripture book may be used at their first communion, then become a wedding keepsake
  • A special Mother’s hankie can be used at all her precious little one’s special occasions, including the wedding down the road

Lace Flower Baby Headbands - One Small Child

New: Lace Christening, Blessing Headbands

We’re downright excited to introduce two new baby headbands! Each comes in three different colors: white is lovely with our Lillian Christening Gown, ivory is perfect with our Memory Lace Christening Gown, and pink is to-die-for gorgeous with our Caryssa Christening Gown.

First up is our Lace Rosette Headband: a soft, stretchy lace band featuring a hand-made lace flower backed with sweet gathers of lace and a touch of curly ostrich feathers, then sprinkled with a few freshwater pearls. The entire headband is hand-sewn (no heavy, bulky hot glue here), which makes it super lightweight and comfortable to wear.

Ava Lace Christening Gowns - One Small Child

Your Christening Gowns: Olivia

Pretty Olivia’s mother, Donna wrote about her experience in purchasing our Ava christening gown (also pictured here is our Touch of Pink Headband):

“Thank you for creating such a beautiful gown for our daughter Olivia’s Christening. I looked at local specialty shops and found nothing as beautiful as what your company offers. I was pleasantly surprised as the dress arrived two days earlier than I expected. Her dress was absolutely beautiful and will be treasured for a lifetime. I am attaching a picture of Olivia on her special day. Thanks so much and I will undoubtedly be a repeat customer.”
