Orijin Dolls
Hello Adorbs,
This week's black women owned business is Orijin Dolls. "There comes a time when you have to face reality - when you have to stop compromising and instead face the situation head-on.
While this was happening, I couldn’t stop thinking about the other families in similar situations. What about the children who weren’t being taught about diversity outside of school? I spent a lot of my time venting to my husband. The lightening point of my frustration became the toy aisle while shopping. Esi suddenly went from asking for one of the few ethnic dolls on the shelf to wanting a Caucasian doll.
As my husband always does, he thought of the solution. He suggested I make the dolls I wanted to see in the toy aisles!
That is the story of how the Orijin Bees story began – out of a desire for ethnic dolls that look like us, dress like us, and reflect the world around us. " The story behind Orijin Dolls is amazing and inspiring.
