About Us
Nine Maternity Clothing Consignment opened
in March 2008.
Being a fan of “regular”
consignment stores for years, the idea for a maternity
consignment store was born as I watched my friends have children
and pack away their maternity clothes into big Rubbermaid bins,
never to be seen again except when they hauled them out the pass
them along to another friend.
Then, when I needed maternity
clothes in 2004 I realized exactly how much those puppies cost
new and then I couldn’t get the idea of a maternity consignment
store out of my head.
Being that I had just graduated
from law school, I just could not toss all those years of Civil
Procedure, Contracts and Torts out the window to open a retail
clothing store.
We found the space in south Minneapolis, found a great
graphic designer, Ryan Haugen from Gray Matter Creative (ryan@graymattercreative.net)
to come up with our logo.
We contacted everyone we knew to
get our hands on clothes, bought a computer system and ta-da,
opened the doors.
So far we have met a lot of great
people, had some fun, learned a lot, helped new moms make a buck
or two and helped moms-to-be save a buck or two.
With your help we hope to keep
growing and keep our doors open for years to come.
Stop by and see us. We would love
to meet you.
