Leah Longueville started Polished Prints in 2018 when she was a new mom with a personal love for graphic tees, and yet couldn't seem to find many for her daughter that really aligned with her own mindset. So she did what any graphic designer mom would do - she created her own. It all started in her guest bedroom, hand-printing onesies one-by-one and sharing them on social media. She focused on positive messages that reflect her own values, bringing to life the meaningful apparel she felt was missing in the world of children's clothing. It didn't take long for her to see how messages like "Be The Good" and "Love Thy Neighbor" resonated with so many others in the same way, so she decided to open up an Etsy shop so others could spread the love, too. Before she knew it, she launched her own website and this tiny hobby evolved into its own little business.
