Our Story
Welcome to Bessie-Blom – where style meets creativity, and every product tells a story.
We’re a small, family-run business rooted in love, creativity, and generations of handiwork. Our passion lies in crafting unique, heartfelt pieces for babies and moms that are as functional as they are beautiful.
What We Do
At Bessie-Blom, we specialize in:
Custom embroidery on high-quality leather products – from dummy clips to bibs and changing mats, each piece is personalized just for you and your little one.
Handmade crochet items – lovingly stitched by Ouma Lindie, these soft, cozy creations bring warmth and charm to your baby's everyday life.
Each item we make is a one-of-a-kind treasure, thoughtfully designed and carefully made by hand. Whether it’s a personalized baby gift or a keepsake for a new mom, our goal is to add a little extra love to life’s special moments.
Our Story
Inspired by the arrival of my first born, Esther (she soon adopted the nickname ‘Bessie’) my mom and I began creating leather and crochet pieces that were both stylish and meaningful. Ouma Lindie’s lifelong love for crochet and my passion for embroidery and all things leather merged to create something truly special — and we've been stitching memories ever since.
We have recently provided the opportunity for a young lady to join our workshop where she invests her time helping us produce your orders.
We're proud to serve our local community and beyond with quality handmade goods that celebrate life, family, and tradition.
Why Choose Us?
Handmade with love – Every item is carefully handcrafted, never mass-produced.
Family-first values – We're moms, grandmas, and makers who understand the importance of comfort, safety, and sentiment.
Locally made – Supporting us means supporting a local dream and generations of craft.
Thank you for visiting our shop and being a part of our story. We can’t wait to create something special just for you.
With love,
Luricke & Ouma Lindie
