 Whimsical Facts About Us |
The Whimsical Pig was started in 1998, in Abilene, Texas by Andy Burnett. The "Pig", as it is called by close friends and family, was begun as a creative outlet for a new stay at home mom. Andy has more than 10 years retail experience in sales, management, and corporate dealings, along with a degree in Environmental Design from Texas A&M and a Secondary Art Education certification from St. Mary's University. These experiences mixed with a love for sewing and an eye for unique children's things has kept "The Pig" busy busy busy! Various "friends of The Pig" have made many contributions over the past few years, cutting, ironing, and decoupaging at all hours of the night... Thanks to my avid team of helpers, crafty mom-friends, and shopaholic sidekicks, The Whimsical Pig continues to turn out fun and exciting things for your kids and ours (along with a few fun things for ourselves!)!
